UMD hockey superfan but love all kinds of sports and will tweet about politics. I enjoy a good cocktail and beer and love to travel.

it is the worst of all worlds. a "unitary *presidency*" insulated from judicial or congressional power and a weak president unable to do the job of governing

4) There are less teams playing high school hockey in Minnesota, in 2009 there were 160 and now there are 140.

5) Hockey is just so expensive and I don't see how it will become cheaper for players and their families.

Feels like these trends will continue.

3) While USA hockey like the World Junior team has never been better. we are seeing a decline in hockey players, 2015 there was 5,792 boys playing hockey in the US. Now it's 5,077 in 2024. Fascinating contrast there.

2) St Paul like many Twin Cities cities have seen their white students either go to private schools or move out into the suburbs, meaning there are less players to pull from. Many white families in St. Paul or Minneapolis are sending their kids to private schools and not public schools.

UMD was the same way. One year the Gopher series was the weekend we returned from Winter Break. Had to find a place to stay
