past rapids- a strike is the only way you can break the union. wages and benifits make-up over 80% of the budget. They are not living in the real world any more. retire at 55 with full medical and wages. I know what would happen to me if I went on strike - my boss would tell me to take a hike. There...

The group Warrior way will save the sports in Brainerd. Here again its the private sector paying for the mistakes made by the school board-adm. I hope all coaches in the distrist give to the warrior way. It is a wake- up call- I think in the long run it will be good for Brainerd- in that more people...

Knowlzee you are right on. The sports budget is less than 3% of the totat budget at Brainerd. The problem is the teachers union. The biggest part of the budget is wages and benefits. In the private sector that would be the first thing cut to balance the budget. Times are tuff- everyone is paying mor...

This issue should have been address years ago. the fees for all sports in Brainerd was less than $100.00. and has been that way for some-time. Why haven the fees gone-up yearly? I put some of the blame on the school distrist. It seems the referemdum was all or nothing. Why not spilt the short fall 5...

you can have the best systems in the world- you still need the horses. A good hockey player can play any system the coach wants.

speaking from past experience, Brainerd has good numbers at the ice mite- mite levels, and Squits for the most parts. One of the problems I see is all- travel Squits. The parents want it, but if you ask the kids they want to play and touch the puck. Why not have one travel team and the rest in-house...

Shoots for the game were Brainerd 29 forest lake 26.

The score is not an indication of the game at all. Forest lake just got smoked by clouqet. Brainerd lost only 3-2 in a great game. Also, what is Forrest Lakes biggest win this year?

Brainerd is missing their best defensemen, Jarred Hoppe. He missed the Fergus, forrest lake, and Tech game. Brainerd is not very deep on the blue line and miss Jarred alot. Hopefully he is back next week. they are a different team with-out him.

Grand Rapids wins 4-1. Too much fire power and depth. duluth's goalie needs to play good in the big games.

This will be a tought game for the warriors. they had a great showing at the schwans cup. Played three very tought -physcial games.
they are a scrappy team and play so well as a team. I just think the timing of the game is bad.

CEC 4 Warriors 2 empty net goal
