Can't wait for vacation

7 days from now, we should be sitting on a chair lift and not on the couch. I keep checking the ski reports and it looks like we will have perfect timing. The Big Mtn (never Whitefish Mtn Resort to me) is filling in nicely with a few inches a day. Here is their ski report video from Friday. Turn up the sound and check out John Dunnigan (local folk legend). His words are great!

"I'm dreamin of ways to survive, and I like deer meat with my minimum wage, it helps keep the dream alive."

"Meats in the freezer lets go skiing..."

Uncle Todd....Maddie is giving you "the look" right now. Don't mess with a future Griz Rhodes Scholar.

how many times have the Bcats made the playoffs or won the Big Sky in the last ten years?

For the records the Bobcats have more National Championships than the Fizzlies!! It is only fitting that a "cat" team beat them!!

Lets put facts behind your statement:
Montana State is the nation’s only football program to win National
Championships at three different levels of competition (NAIA, NCAA
Division II, and NCAA Division I-AA)
The Bobcats won national titles in 1956 (NAIA), 1976 (Division II), and
1984 (Division I-AA)
The 2006 season brought Montana State its first NCAA playoff win
since the 1984 national championship run.

All of these are from the BobKittens press guide. It doesn't state how that 84 championship was before playoffs and was a press vote.

Again fuzzy math from a Grizzly ... that is still three national championships. That is not counting our 6 (unoffocial count) national rodeo championships!! (btw, U of M as zero!)

Are glee club championships and 4H ribbons going to be tallied also?

Point is MSU is pretty darn terrible now.
