I'm with you as far as the tape is concerned. I have my memory of how the brawl started and I haven't stated it yet because i'm not 100% sure if the way I saw it is in fact correct. I really don't want to talk about any specific individual on any team in a negative fashion. After all they are 18 year olds with lots of testosterone. You do have some assumptions in your post that may or may not prove out. I guess any suspentions will prove the info on the tape one way or the other. Yes i've seen the two teams play alot. Back to the days when Dbq was still in the MJHL and they played each other at nationals in Blaine. What baffels me the most about St. Louis on Sunday is why they let one player in one situation take them out of their style of play and get down into the trenches with DBQ, playing in DBQ in front of a big crowd.
That is why St Louis lost. St louis is a fun team to watch. The speed, skill, movement off the puck and never quit attitude is a great style of hockey to watch. So why try to out Dubuque-Dubuque in their barn. If there is one lesson the Blues should take away from this game, that is it. -------------------- Nice Goal AY!

Very nice wineknow. Has it ever occured to any of the Dbq haters (XC) that St. Louis may not be angels either? I'm not saying . . . -------------------- Thank a soldier and a vet for fighting for our right to watch hockey.

I know reading has never been your strength so let me say this one more time: quote:

What I have always pointed out to the whiney Dubuque fans who always like to blame someone else for things is why is it always Dubuque and another team? Dubuque/Toledo, Dubuque/Chicago, Dubuque/Queen City, and of course our favorite Dubuque/St. Louis. Why is it always Dubuque and someone else????? Like I said, must just be bad luck.   -------------------- Don't take yourself so seriously, no one else does.

[EMAIL]null[/EMAIL] Can't the St. Louis faithful respond that they can't hear you because they've got something like 4 Silver Cups and 5 Hurster Cups and 8 League Championships and 8 or 9 National appearances in the last 10 years in their ears? And wasn't one of them a throttling over Dubuque? I'm just sayin' you're only as good as your last game. St. Louis is about to wrap up another league championship and another trip to Nationals. Dubuque will need to get to and do well at the Hurster Cup.

I totally agree with you on the Roy quote... I wasn't saying that to you, but to Cross Check and the boys who are green with envy. I was at the National semi-final game (was that Blaine or Syracuse???) when the Blues thumped the T-Birds. Even though we've won 3 straight Hurster Cups here in DBQ, I'm still in awe of what STL was able to do the four or five years prior to DBQ being in the CSHL... (It's been over 15 years since the last of our three national championships heree in DBQ) As for Sundays altercation, I saw the whole thing, and do believe that the STL player was jumped on the faceoff for a spear to the groin on a DBQ player. (By the way, the spear was "behind the play" not off a faceoff) For generations hockey has had a code where players are punched for things like using your stick as a weapon. I'm not going to get into the get into wether that code is right or wrong, as that will involve create about 80 postings here with guys arguing that point. That is just the way I saw it. I'll be glad to give you more thoughts on it if you'd like...
