I remember WCCO as Boone & Erickson for the morning drive and Cannon the afternoon drive. But, i may have that turned around, it’s been awhile.
They would do a bit as Finn and Gill. Corny Scandinavian jokes but I loved it.
For the old guys on here, who else listened to the Cannon Mess? At the height of his popularity, it was the most listened to program in the entire country. I sure miss the barking dogs, Ma Linger, and Backlash Larue.
I spend a lot of time in waders and enjoy the simplicity of it all. However, what I spend on waders I could have bought a new 15hp Johnson motor 50 years ago. But still, wading is cheaper than FFS (but I have that too).
If the concern is the impact on populations of fish, reduce limits.
If catch and release mortality is an issue, change how that’s done. Where I do the majority of my fishing each summer, if a fish is going to be released, it can not be removed from the water. Several studies have been done on its efficacy. So much better than improper handling on top of the time a fish is out of the water for a glory photo.
Classy by Ovi getting the whole team on the ice for Fleury. That was wicked cool.
I was there! Absolute goosebumps when Ovi brought everyone out to honor Fleury.
Kids with big shots like that are dangerous unless they can keep them down and manageable for someone in front. My brother took a shot right to his mask in warmups before a game. His ears were ringing the entire game. Somehow managed a shutout anyway. The cage was actually bent so bad it touched his nose.
In college my coach was tired of our goalies taking pucks to the face in practice. He blew the whistle and told us that the next guy that dings one off the goalies head will have to be goalie for the rest of the practice, with only a glove, blocker, and stick. Sure enough, one guy couldn’t control his shot and spent an hour in net. It never happened again the rest of the season for any us. Message sent.
It was open when I was up on 3/14. I asked the girl checking me out about the sale and she said “he’s tired”.
Looks like Brazeau has soft legs to with his soft hands. A goal scoring machine!
Pre smartphone and camera I saw a boat with “My Dixie Wreck” across the transom.

A Canadian Government official just announced a Travel Advisory to warn Canadians to travel to the USA only if absolutely necessary.Also Germany just announced a travel warning about visiting the USA
A dangerous place for travellers right now with ICE on the warpath – some Canadians and German visitors have been rounded up and detained – Canadian actress for 10 days in a”shithole cell” she said, a German businessman put in chains – Yikes.
Not sure what will become of border crossings , likely easier and quicker as fewer people will be crossing in either direction for likely at least the next 4 years, maybe longer as Trump staffers are going to announce he will run for a third term – he is going to change the “rules” on POTUS terms.
Ive done a fair amount of searching this and cannot find anything to support what you are saying. I am guessing you are getting your information from sources in Canada in which that COuntry jails reportors for merely asking people on the street questions. Meanwhile a reporter from Canada is in Prison in the UK for doing the exact same thing and in solitary confinement.
This is what I was able to find about travel advisories and nothing supports what you posted. Also, separately, Canada explicitly stated “Follow normal precautions for entering the united states”.“On Tuesday, Germany’s Foreign Ministry updated its travel advisory for the U.S. after several Germans were reportedly detained at the border.
The ministry said that neither approval through the U.S. ESTA system nor a U.S. visa means people will be granted entry every time.
“The final decision on whether a person can enter the U.S. lies with the U.S. border authorities,” a German ministry spokesperson said on Wednesday.
The change does not count as an official travel warning, they added.
The United Kingdom published a similar advisory on Wednesday regarding immigration and understanding the laws for U.S. entry.
“You should comply with all entry, visa and other conditions of entry. The authorities in the U.S. set and enforce entry rules strictly. You may be liable to arrest or detention if you break the rules,” the guidance reads.
It’s a deviation from earlier this year. Archived versions of the U.K.’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) website from February briefly reference U.S. entry rules being strictly enforced, at the time providing no explicit warning about potential legal consequences.”
I don’t believe everything I read on the internet, but it’s obvious CaptainMusky is a voice of reason.
Here’s an interview with Randolph and his decision to resign.
https://www.brainerddispatch.com/sports/prep/boys-hockey-randolph-resigns-as-lightning-head-coach
I saw the article in the StarTribune this morning about Randolph leaving and or retiring. It really wasn’t clear which one. What gives?
Section 8 rules!
So far dying your hair blonde has lead to defeat – Andover and Lakeville South. Gotta keep the Flow natural.
During the intros I got the impression that Lakeville South was all “hey, I’m on tv, I want to make the all hair team.” Edina had that, “we’re here to win a championship” look. Btw, I hope Edina loses tonight.
This should be a pretty good tourney. Too bad its mostly urban teams, but its always good hockey. I’ll Take Northern Lakes in A and Moorhead in AA. Let the Games Begin!!!
Me too!

MN DNR needs to have an electronic signature for fishing licenses. Seems silly that you can get it online but it’s not valid unless you print it out and sign it. I’ve purchased licenses in other states and was allowed an electronic signature. It’s much more efficient and convenient and no paper was involved.Btw, I printed my license, signed it, and then took a photo of it to keep it on my phone.
You don’t need to sign an electronically purchased license. Just need a screenshot of it. They changed that a year or 2 ago. I’ve been checked on one and it was no issue.
So why did I get this when I went online to buy my license? It clearly says it’s not valid unless I sign it.

I bought a Kenai Clam when they first came out. Used it for years but having a heater, electronics, and holes got to be too much. I went a little bit heavier, but light enough for me to throw in and out of the pickup bed, and bought an Otter Cottage with bench seat. It says 2 man, it’s a little tight for 2, but is an excellent size for 1 man. 3 holes, a Livescope, and a Mr Buddy Heater fits easily. I’ve got a friend that lightened his up even more and took out the bench seat and uses a folding chair instead.
I am not sure why my license could not just say Lifetime and pickup a new one when it is worn. Leave it to the state to mess up something so that is so easy to fix.
That is messed up.

I thought this was interesting, Ryan Suter’s paychecks this season:
St Luis Blues – $775k in base salary + $225k + $500k + $600k games played bonuses (potential for a $500k bonus if the Blues make the playoffs)
+
Dallas Stars – $1.43 million in Buyout Payment (1 more year of this)
+
MN Wild – $833k in Buyout Payment (3 more years of this)Total = $4.763 million sofar this season from 3 Different Teams
If I were a pro athlete I would want his agent or Kirk Cousins.

Where did Randolph go?He coaches at Northern Lakes (sect 6A).
To AK guy, he inherited a Team that has seen it youth program dominate District 15, for years.
The varsity team made the state tournament a few years ago. It was not a struggling team, it is a team that could be good for years to come.Randolph is a great coach, and he certainly has his kids at Northern Lakes buying in on his style. He has done a great job.
Struggling was the wrong word. I probably should have said that the coach with the most victories in high school hockey history has elevated the Northern Lakes program. I hope they make it to state and hang a banner in the Breezy Point arena and the Hallet Center in Crosby.
Plus, there is no such thing as football hair

D East tanked hard after they canned Randolph

Rip, Is that true? If so how much hypocrisy is that!?No, but always funny
Randolph has his new team in the championship game. He completely turned around a struggling program. The guy can clearly coach.
Just as long as I never hear “get me another Pabst”
In the early years, didn’t he wear a jumpsuit with a huge Pabst logo on his chest?
If you’re driving through Brainerd S&W Bait will have what you need.
I’d like to know what really happened with the fall out.
Nice take, wormdunker. Spurgeon analogy is spot on.

Eichel is pretty dang good too.They are all damn good. Except werensky who I have not been impressed with at all. Slavin sluffing off made Faber recover for him and the PxP guys laud Slavin…
Werensky is leading the tournament with 6 assists.
I bought a Clam plate for my KDrill/Milwaukee last week. The reason I did is because the handle attachment to my drill is stripped and would fall off when I was half way through drilling a hole. It was a solution to buying a new drill. Now that I’ve used it a dozen times, I like the plate a lot more than a drill with handle.

I’d rather win than lose, but now that that game is done and over with, I’m OK with it. It almost felt inevitable. Nothing to play for, coming off such a huge high from Saturday night. Crowd seemed to want to get into it but hit a wall because there was only so much excitement to generate knowing the big deal comes Thursday night. Better to come back down to earth and build back up in a few nights. Plus you can tell that win meant a lot for Sweden.its not like USA didn’t have their chances, Sweden’s goalie played well and we hit FIVE pipes… This game was all about getting through it healthy and that almost turned into a disaster…
I was channeling my inner Doug McLeod last night. Metallurgy save!
