@BigBooleans @chnews Do you know how site selection and host teams work?

@chnews It's nevertheless nauseating for Cornell fans that, for reasons, we have to play #5 on its turf instead of #6 on neutral ice somewhere.

The evidence is more clear every yet - this is the ultimate, though, that the Committee just has no real interest in attendance or travel concerns. For all the talk of it, it's almost never a concern anymore.

When we said "potentially historic" blizzard, we meant it. A number of records were broken at our office in Negaunee Township, most notably the all time 2-day snowfall total which was measured at 36.3", breaking the previous total of 31.9" set in March 1997. #906wx #MIwx

@GBP4EVER @KenIngalls It's already one of the largest seating capacity stadiums in the league

@KenIngalls I think talk will be in next 10-15 years that the Packers can no longer do anything more to make more money at Lambeau & talks of a replacement start were you build a more modern stadium that holds 80-100K with modern seating and elements for players & fans.

Many scoffed when Ed Policy said his #1 priority was to keep the Packers in Green Bay. It’s an exceptionally difficult task to pull off as the team faces a constant uphill battle financially. Lots of work has been done to build up Titletown to stay competitive with additional revenue sources, but their “rainy day fund” is a tiny drop of water in Lake Michigan compared to what other teams have available. Staying financially competitive and viable is job number 1 indeed, and they are probably going to have to do some unpopular things like stadium naming rights to stay in the game.

@weezer316 @AaronNagler Because at some point those billionaires will be tempted to sell the spot in the NFL to some gajillionaire private equity group and divide up the proceeds 31 ways...essentially the league takes the franchise back from GB because money

@AaronNagler Am I missing something? Like why is equity sales to fund billionaires lifestyles an issue for us?

This is why Policy included “Keeping the Packers in Green Bay” among his priorities when he became President. It’s going to take a lot of work and he knows it.

@westernmichfp @LetsGoDU The committee won't have them match up in the first round, but won't be concerned about the second. And with four teams in top six now, they will all be 1 or 2 seeds.

@LetsGoDU I know the announcers said something about it but 4 nchc teams are going not one should be in the same bracket

What a fantastic hockey game. This is college hockey at its finest. Just like it was twice last year. I don’t want it, obviously, but college hockey would be lucky to see another DU-WMU matchup in a few weeks.

@LetsGoDU @westernmichfp Unfortunately now w WMU 4 and DU 5 in NPI we could very well both be in Loveland. Of course, if UMD wins next week they could leapfrog DU to 5 and we could be w them in Albany or Worchester and DU can have Michigan State in Loveland

@RichardRaliegh @mike_binzo @TheListFinsPod @geoffschwartz It ain't 45 million per year...it's below the average starting QB salary, well less than half what the top tier QBs are paid...

@mike_binzo @TheListFinsPod @geoffschwartz This isn’t a flier. You’re not paying $45m for a flier like wut

Just do not believe this will be successful. Becoming a first time starter in year 5. Hasn’t thrown more than 61 passes in a season. This would be an extreme outlier if he was any good for a long stretch during this contract.

@CGainz954 @geoffschwartz GB o-line has been pretty pedestrian the last two years compared to their typical performance

@geoffschwartz Not only that but the offensive line in Miami compared to Green Bay’s is like going from Mt Everest to Death Valley 🏜️…he’ll struggle when he gets consistent pressure from all over that leaky line

@BruceIronsNFL this didn't age well

One nice side effect for the #Packers after the Rashan Gary trade: With their cap balanced, they don't have to move fast on Elgton Jenkins They can hold on to him and wait for the free agent market to dry up, then try to flip him for another pick to a team that lost free agency

@NewsSpartants @BroncoBarn Yes

@BroncoBarn i hate michigan more than anyone and yost is fucking sweet

Yost shouldn’t be near anyone’s list

@JacobRepper1 That doesn't seem like much to ask, only like 5 upsets

These results next week should bump UMass’ hopes of an NCAAT bid, so long as UMass keeps winning: 3️⃣ Augustana loses to 6️⃣ Bemidji St. 3️⃣UConn loses to 9️⃣ UNH 1️⃣Minnesota St. loses to 8️⃣ Ferris St. 2️⃣ St. Thomas loses to 7️⃣ Lake Superior State 5️⃣Maine loses to Vermont

@broncodan77 @BroncoBarn @WMUHockey @TheNCHC @CCTigerHKY Mbereko is an outstanding goalie and has been a Bronco buster (see what I did there?) but the road sweep a couple weeks ago will help get past them at Lawson.

@BroncoBarn @WMUHockey @TheNCHC @CCTigerHKY Not good in our history with CC in round 1 at Lawson, 0-2 in the playoffs

It will be #4 Western Michigan as the 3rd seed hosting colorado college as the 6th seed at Lawson Ice Arena next Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (if necessary) for the first round of the NCHC Playoffs! @WMUHockey @TheNCHC @CCTigerHKY

@tangney123 @SchlossmanGF @BroncoBarn UND does not play @ WMU next year unless meet in conf playoff

@SchlossmanGF @BroncoBarn Broncos will play the 2026-2027 season at Lawson. New arena scheduled to open Fall 2027.

Barring a postseason meeting, this weekend will be UND's last time playing in Lawson Ice Arena. It has sent a former UND and WMU assistant on a 1,600-mile round trip to see it for the first time in 37 years and bid farewell to it. Story: grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hoc…

@jawwatts @lesleygirl @WMUHockey @UNDmhockey @SchlossmanGF @Painted_Bronco @BroncoBarn Gotta believe those are UND buyers making the road trip for what should be a great series and a great chance for them to clinch the regular season title in our building

My wife @lesleygirl just pointed out that tickets on the secondary market for @WMUHockey vs @UNDmhockey game are approaching $500/seat. It’s $200 near where we sit. Lawson Arena is the hottest ticket in town. #BroncosReign 🐴🏒🥅🤎💛🏆 @SchlossmanGF @Painted_Bronco @BroncoBarn

@WMUHockey Forks down

Put them through hell all weekend long! #BroncosReign

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

MONDAY MORNING MEDITATION: Those of you still angry and sharing think pieces about Bad Bunny’s largely Español performance, might I remind you that the Super Bowl is an event broadcast globally… Only approximately 20% of the world’s population speaks English… NOT TO MENTION, MUSIC/ARTISTRY HAS ALWAYS BEEN UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE! JUST TO BE CLEAR, I’m not necessarily a fan of his either… But I can appreciate other perspectives and artistic expressions. The fuss being raised about a 15-minute Halftime Show is much ado about nothing IMO… Some people just need to find something about which to be mad, OR TO DEFLECT FROM REAL ISSUES THEY SHOULD BE ADDRESSING! 😏 #RELAX

The win streak hits double digits! #BroncosReign

@ChadLivengood @ddiamond Nevermind that historically other games have not been scheduled in that time slot. But he can claim credit

Trump will order TV networks to ‘protect’ Army-Navy football game on the 2nd Saturday in December "No other Game or Team can violate this Time Slot!!!” detroitnews.com/story/news/pol… via @ddiamond

@sammwichh Both can be correct. It's a question of what can be done to change the history thru Saturday night without changing the head coach. That's possible, but difficult. Also no guarantee a new coach is actually better

On one hand, you have Jordan Love, Josh Jacobs, and Micah Parsons publicly vouching for the coach. On the other, you have,,,,Quay Walker
