Off Our Game

tUMD 2, Hostile and Abusives 4

Last night was not the best of nights. It wasn't the worst of nights, by any means, we weren't run out of our own building or anything, but it was a night when pucks bounced and sticks were lifted and goalies made some errors.

Last night wasn't one of the best of nights for the students, either. I was sitting with them as I normally do when I come up by myself, and halfway through the first period some dudes came up and wanted to sit in the seats behind us, which had been vacated by some girls. They stopped before filing into the row and one said "Dude, is that puke?"

It was. In a big puddle on the floor in front of the seat behind MEg... and also on her jacket. AND WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW. DAMN YOU, STEALTH PUKER. At least tell the arena staff to come clean it up... or APOLOGIZE for your friend puking on someone's jacket. Seriously. Fail.

Anyway, it's hard to start chants when the atmosphere surrounding you smells like puke. Or when you're gagging. Or when Sioux fans are trying to trip you on the goal lap.

Tonight I'm very nervous. We will either win or get smacked down by, like, a touchdown. Or at least a field goal. I don't know. Les Connollys and La Fontaine are not going to go quietly into that good night. Bordson will probably not be 100% due to UND's best efforts to kill him. Team Cougar needs to rebound from a horrible night last night.

We are going to quadruple our cheering efforts tonight.

I'm looking for a big effort out of both the Dogs and the student section tonight. I'll be listening to Bruce all the way down here in SoCal. Let's go Dogs! Sue Sucks.
