The Pioneers are now a mere 31-6.

wow, drake, uw-platteville 30-5?!  that is filthy!   

No, the real filthy number is 4 championships in 10 tries! That is unbelievable.

Saul Phillips, the NDSU head coach that just made the dance was a senior captain of the 1995 Platteville championship team!(coached by Bo Ryan)

if you eat too many beans you will probably toot

Gopher nation 66, N'western puppies 53. Michigan State tomorrow. Are the Gophs in the NCAA tourney regardless of what happens on Friday? In the words of Jeff Dubay, "Yeah, I think so!!"

C'Mob -   What type of beans make you toot the most?  Green beans, brown beans, frijoles negro, or all of the above?

TH4L - They have a shot even if they lose.  Who knows what all these talking bobble heads on ESPN know, but they have them at like an 11 seed even after the Michigan loss, but before the NW win today.  I say if they get blown out by MSU tomorrow they should be out.  If they play them tough or win they are in.  Of course it will also depend on how many teams that are suppose to win their conference tourneys, actually do.

North Park has five championships in nine tries.

North Park??     Is that the 8-17 (0-14 in conference) North Park Vikings who finished the season on a 15 game losing streak?  That one?

I'm guessing all those years of covering the MIAC has prepared Mose for his latest scholarly pursuits - re-writing the history of the Children of Israel's journey out of Egypt. 
Good luck on the journey into the Promised Land.  In your version there should be some Tommies waiting to greet you in Canaan. God speed, peace be the journey, & cool runnings.   

If UST wins on Friday, who knows, mebbe ol' Drake might amble on down to Chi-town on Saturday.

Is there a Drake Hotel in Chicago? I know there was formerly a Drake Hotel in Mpls & there is a Palmer House in Chicago.

Staying, no doubt, at the . . . Drake Hotel.   

*** SPOILER ALERT ***

Nites - remember in the movie Mission Impossible, featuring Tom Cruise, John Voight, Ving Rhames, and Jean Reno... when Jim Phelps (Voight) is supposedly dead, but Ethan Hunt (Cruise) figures out that he is still alive because the "Drake Hotel" stamped the bible that Phelps brought with from Chicago?

[pause]

... That was awesome.

p.s.  Is it necessary to preface a comment with "spolier alert" when the movie was released in 1996?

Yes.  Phelps needed it to quote Job I believe.  http://74.125.95.132/search?q=cache:PXiIE1pZhlQJ:www.kokos.cz/bradkoun/movies/mi.txt+Mission+Impossible+Drake+Hotel&cd=12&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

[Russian Mig AK47]

Indeed.  I think Hunt needed it to quote Job too!  To come full circle, I think Drake should go to Chicago and should stay at the Drake Hotel.  He should also ask for a discounted price citing his D3hoops moniker... you know, assuming his real name is not Drake.  If it is, that would be more substantial and probably carry more weight.  Goodluck on the trip that you might take, Drake.

p.s. Wheaton is like 30-45 minutes outside of Chi-Town I think.  You may want to find a Drake Hotel closer.  I am assuming they are everywhere in Illinois.  Similar to your standard Ho-Jo.

Double p.s. Nice work on finding the script to Mission Impossible, Nites.  I am now going to read the script and play the movie in my head.
