My money is on Farmington making their first trip to the X.

Read all your responses and can't disagree with any because there are so many moving parts. One thing I don't buy (but admit I could be wrong), is the importance of head-to-head games played in December and January. I don't think Stillwater's coach looks at the whole pot of teams and says Team X beat Team Y so team X is a higher seed. I would imagine coaches are saying that this is the 1-7 listing of the teams in order of how good we think they are. Sprinkle in some agenda and, boom, seedings.

Obviously the picture will be much more clear late Friday night.

If I recall, the seedings mirror pretty closely the LPH Rankings--agree or disagree. GB

GB you are right. Seeding usually goes right along with LPH

Coaches have a lot of things happening at this point in time. I would not be surprised if they looked at LPH and voted accordingly.

Elliott, you crafty intellect from the north woods, enough of the Wayzata praise. I see through your motives--a hex as big as Paul Bunyon's Axe! Stop it right now! GB

He is not offended.
In fact, he is dead.
Buried in Kelliher MN.

His wife and child are buried in Hackensack.

His birth place can be seen in Akeley.
His homestead was in Bemidji.

As you read this you may note there is no mention of Brainerd.

And yes, Wayzata is the best (AA) team left standing (at this point).

Not sure where Bermidji will be seated. It depends if they buy a student ticket or adult general admission ticket. :lol:

I'm smelling a consensus that Bemidji will be number five and play number four Wayzata in the 8:30 game. Hoping section 7 doesnt draw the number one team in the 6 PM game in the same bracket

That's because what happened in Brainerd stayed in Brainerd :-$

Where do you think he picked up the Blue Ox, among other things :-k

They even named a bar after PB's famous pet after some of the antics he pulled 8-[

Good luck to your 'jacks tonight in TRF Elliott \:D/

Some of the 2nd generation Shady Bunch will be up there to watch the game #-o
