USCHO Headquarters - USCHO held a press conference Tuesday to announce five suspensions. In what amounts to the biggest mass crackdown in USCHO.com history, five posters, including three DU fans, were busted for a variety of infractions..
dggoddard, DU78 & Dirty were caught red-handed posting pictures online, a clear violation of USCHO Rules. CO14ers was nabbed for responding to Siouxinminny's threats on Geoff Paukovich. This USCHO investigation was the result of a three month probe.
USCHO stated, "This started off as an investigation into Dirty's "anti-NCAA" T-shirt operation, but quickly spread to illegal posting, copyright infringement and money laundering."
"I've been suspended for a week I guess. I'm sure they won't respond to my email since I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong," UND fan Dirty was quoted as saying as he stormed out of his trailerhome in Grand Forks.
dggoddard was more philisophical, "I'm glad they finally nabbed Dirty, but its a shame two innocent DU posters like CO14ers & DU78 had to go down. I just hope the Pioneers go out there on Friday night and win one for the Gipper."

CO14ers took a few moments from his homework to add, "Its OK for UND fans to make threats, but if you respond its a week in the penalty box. Oh yeah, UND fans are a bunch of racist idiots."
Reached for comment in Colorado Springs CC Coach Scott Owens said, "Those DU posters had it coming to them. I sent in many anonymous complaints to USCHO about those morons last season and nothing happened. Say....you're not going to quote me on this are you?"
DU coach George Gwozdecky & UND coach Dave Hakstol were unavailable for comment on how this will affect the series this weekend.

I got the same e-mail from USCHO as dggoddard. Oh well, here's to a sweep of UND this weekend. FYI Adam Berkhoel lost 4-3 to Rick DiPietro and the NY Islanders yesterday. Yashin and Satan scored 3 of the goals. Will be back on USCHO in a week.
First of all, no one but me posted pictures so this makes no sense that a bunch of people were suspended. Second, there was no bandwidth hijacking as I used an image hosting site for every picture, so again this makes no sense.
