:lol: :wink: Thanks!

Great story. So good to have Durkin back on the sidelines at BG. He was quite a DE himself.

Parks played so well Sat.

You are right on!!! Couldn't describe Freak any better!!! That's why we love him so much, his passion for BG Sports cannot, and will not, be contained!!!! .....THANKFULLY!!!! :supz:
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."
~~USCHO Poster
"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

What a great article. You get the "story behind the story" with quotes from assistant coaches and fellow players, not just something thrown together by simply parroting the website press conference quotes and rehashing the stats. This is what every feature about BG should look like.
