I know that there are alot of Husky, Duck, Beaver and Coug fans out there but for all of you misplaced Montanans did you notice that there was a national championship decided on the field yesterday. Thats right, Griz 13 Furhman 6. A 16 team tournement and all finnished before Christmas. Just say no to BCS. And let me tell ya those 3 home playoff games were a ball.

It would be hard not to have heard this, wouldn't it? Something like this doesn't happen very often for the Griz fan.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

Congrats on your NC, mike. An impressive feat in any division. Wounldn't we all love to have a D-1A playoff. Remove the doubt, expose the national media for the idiots they are, and let the NC be determined on the field.
Makes too much sense for it to ever astually happen...........

Yay Griz. They were the first college team practice I ever watched; when I was 4 or 5 and my older brother Gary would walk us over to the U. of Montana practice field. They were giants to me then. Monsters. They have always had good teams. Congrats for the National Champion Grizzlies! (Just play fair against the PSU Viks when we visit ). And I agree with Dan. I just can't understand the reasoning for not having the top NCAA division avoiding a playoff system (debated for years with non-sense by the NCAA). It sure seems it would be a win, win, win, win situation for the fans, rightful NC winner, media revenue, and school revenue! This planet never ceases to amaze me. Been sore necked forever by the idiots. RT

Jeez RT we might have been neighbors, when I was a kid we used to walk over to watch the semi-pro baseball team play at old dornblazer field, or was it called campbell field for baseball. I think that the team was called the Lumberjacks. Now that is going back a few years......early 60's?? Of course I was very young then. Ahem Verrrry young

Hey C22, how would you know they have been spending time in sheep fields? Kinda tells us where you've been hangin out. Mt. Mike, just a smidge before you I spent my first 6 years living at 540 E. Central St., just a couple blocks from Mount Sentinel. My brother and older cousins used to let me tag along when they climbed it a few times. Didn't climb up to the "M" above the U until I was older. I also got to tag along on our little treks to nearby Bonner Park too. I do remember watching baseball games at the baseball field toward the south end of Higgins Ave., but that was more often after we moved to Portland and I stayed many summers at my grandparents house at 220 Strand Ave. I often would ride my bike from their house on the south side over the Higgins bridge to 'cruise' around town with local friends. Those things might ring a bell for ya. Some of the best times of my life! Steve

Chrome.....as if you didn't remember that chasing sheep keeps you in great cardiovascular shape RT all of those things ring a bell. It was a great place to be a kid. We use to get all of our nite crawlers after dark on the U of M golf course. Until the cops got after us. Damn trespassers.

I looked all over tv land and I could not find that game any where. Heck that team was close to home. It's nice to see a championship go some where else besides the East coast. Jim S.
