If you're reading this from the BG/Toledo area, watch Fox Toledo Sports tonight. They were at the rink and interviewed Blake and Emerson along with Paluch and some players! I am assuming the interview would be on tv tonight in their 10 o'clock edition.

Very cool to see those two guys again!!! :supz:

GO FALCON ICERS!!

I've always wondered, when we have "VIPs" come to the area, what hotel do they stay at? There aren't exactly any 4 or 5 star hotels in BG.

If they're REALLY "VIP", they probably crash with the President, or maybe a distinguished professor in town with space to accomodate. Otherwise, I'm sure there's a decent suite or nicer room at the Hampton Inn, or definitely at the French Quarter in Perrysburg.

Actually, given that they played with Paluch, I would guess that they are staying at his house. But that is only a guess, no clue if that is accurate.

Also, a bit disappointed in the news coverage!! :cry: Fanning did NOT mention that Nelson was there also, only focused on Rob! :evil: Both of them are equally important to the legacy and history of BG Hockey. That huge renovation that was done at the arena is a direct result of Blake AND Emerson!! I know that Fox Sports has an expanded edition on Sunday nights, maybe they will have a lengthier segment then. I saw them interview Blake, Emerson, Paluch, and Rogo. Could have been others, too. Lot of film taken for such a short segment. :roll:

GO ICERS!!
SWEEP THE IRISH!!

They spent so much time stirring the pot of the Jeep tragedy that there wasn't much time left for anything else.

Agreed. I get rather tired of the overkill we are getting from all of the local stations on everything from the winter weather (like we never had a big snow storm before...) to this event. They are all trying to out do each other by reporting more and more about less and less!! :roll:

DROP THE PUCK!!!
SWEEEEEEEEP THE IRISH!!!!!!
