Wisconsin Gets Ass Kicked, 8PM EST, ESPN2


***Udate: Wisconsin Maine gets ass kicked, 8PM, ESPN2.

That's right - for the 10th...count 'em, TENTH time in the past 18 seasons, the UMaine Black Bears have returned to College Hockey's Frozen Four.

Unfortunately, all 17,800 tickets at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee have been sold out for several months now, and about 99% of those by Wisconsin fans. Maine faced the same hostile crowd for the national championship in Minnesota 3 years ago, so they’re used to this kind of thing.

Either way, I’ve decided to take a political break and post the Maine Fight Song here for good luck…the only college fight song in the nation that contains references to drinking. Enjoy, and GO BIG BLUE!!



Fill the steins to dear old Maine.
Shout! till the rafters ring!
Stand and drink a toast once again!
Let every loyal Maine man sing.
Drink to all the happy hours,Drink to the careless days.
Drink to Maine, our Alma Mater,The college of our hearts always.

To the trees, to the sky,To the Spring in its glorious happiness;
To the youth, to the fire,To the life that is moving and calling us!
To the Gods, to the Fates,To the rulers of men and their destinies;
To the lips, to the eyes,To the girls who will love us some day.
Oh, fill the steins to dear old Maine.
Shout! till the rafters ring!
Stand and drink a toast once again!
Let every loyal Maine man sing.
Then drink to all the happy hours,Drink to the careless days.
Drink to Maine, our Alma Mater, The college of our hearts always.

How do they score goals with that much drinking going on?

Congrats. I'm a basketball fan, and my team is UCONN, but they lost. Hope your team does better.

Nice to meet you- came from Left of Center and generally trust his props!

Plus, you have an acceptable list of music (profile) which works in your favor!

I like the clarification on old Pearl Jam.. Metallica and Aerosmith require the same!!! Although there's hope yet for the former...

Elizabeth...thanks for checking out the site.

Email me directly if you want to chat music, my favorite topic.

I might be the only Pantera fan at Tori Amos shows and the only Tori fan at a Slayer concert...
