If you don't know who Mitch Korn is, here's a list of his students:
Dominik Hasek

Martin Biron

I wonder if Corey Hirsch has ever thanked Foppa for making him famous...

Random Fact: Over the past 4 seasons, Rick DiPietro has made $170,623.51 more per game played in his sport than Alex Rodriguez

Wait, I thought the NHL had a minimum salary of $550,000?

Oh, you said MORE per game...

Let's hope that the whole funeral process was rapid. I think his name was Eddy?

From the start, life is always a downstream journey.

ND was the last team to beat UCLA and OU when they started their historic win streaks, and the teams to end them.


On January 19, 1974, the UCLA Bruins lost a basketball game to the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, 71–70. It ended a streak of 88 consecutive victories, which coincidentally began after losing to Notre Dame almost three years earlier on January 19, 1971. The streak encompassed 88 games, an NCAA division I basketball record eclipsing the 60 game streak of San Francisco in 1956.

Oklahoma holds the NCAA record for most consecutive wins by a major college program at 47-straight. The streak spanned five seasons from 1953-57. OU lost to Notre Dame, 28-21, in the 1953 season opener .
On Nov. 9, 1957, in Columbia, Mo., Oklahoma won its 47th-consecutive game with a 39-14 victory against the Missouri Tigers. The streak came to an end on Nov. 16, 1957, when the Notre Dame Fighting Irish claimed a 7-0 victory at Owen Field in Norman.

Yeah, I'd hang onto ND if I were you. They are looking really solid this year. The Hoosiers... not so much.

Can I find her at Wal-Mart?

When he slips into the sack with her, he'll have enough to "rollback", I'm sure.
