    Congratulations to my Colorado School of Mines Football Team for a great season! They lost in the Division II National Championship game today, but the fact that an entire team of future engineers and scientists is playing at such a level is just stupid.

    My brother graduated the School of Mines, I will have to send him this link.

    Love going into Golden and seeing the Big "M" on Lookout Mountain.

    Everybody puts a whoopin on Western.

    I still wonder that of all the schools he could have gone to my son choose Western.
    He really enjoys it there and can drive home on long weekends and holidays…….when the Monarch Pass is clear!

    I had good experience attending Western in the mid/late 80's. Can't do any better if want to take advantage of outdoors activities while going to school.

    Tell him to watch for the speed trap east side bottom of Monarch when headed home for Christmas break. State patrol used to write couple hundred tickets that friday afternoon.

    I believe that was the game where Mines was down 20-3, but then decided to play. I thought we might get that again yesterday, but it was not to be. Western State finished 7-4, so they are definitely on the up and up.

    Though not uttered as frequently during the winning seasons of the past 20 years, as one of the local sports writers assessed, CSM is home to one of the most brutal student section chants in all of college sports- "That's all right, that's OK, y'all work for us someday." or the shortened "Your players will work for our players." I couldn't tell if I heard it yesterday in McKinney. Sorry if that offends anybody...

    All sports were intramural quality when I attended. We went to drink and laugh at the constant bloopers.

    I was offered a small scholarship to play in the late 90s, but the missing of classes for travel games and practice was a no go. I wasn't going to sacrifice a good opportunity in learning for a go nowhere sports opportunity.

    We were probably at some of the same games. This was the era when CSM played what I called the Nebraska potty-training schools, with the opposing players just hoping to get on the Huskers radar screen for a transfer to Lincoln.
