SPORTS FEEVER by Chris Fee of KROX Radio – chrisjfee@yahoo.com
We lost a good one last week.
My Uncle Kevin Fee passed away at the too-young age of 66. Kevin was a sports writer and Sports Editor at the Grand Forks Herald for many years. He was an amazing writer, and an even better uncle, husband, dad, and grandpa.
In our jobs, we spent a lot of evenings talking after games, getting stats and scores from each other and sharing information — especially back before scores were readily available through texting, the internet, and all the new ways we have today. We would talk about the games we covered that night and whatever else came up.
We were also lucky enough to spend a lot of time together when my grandparents — Kevin’s parents, Ray and Mabel — bought a lake cabin on Union Lake. Looking back, it was one of the most important things they ever did to bring our family together. Almost every weekend in the summer, there was a bunch of Fees at the cabin. We enjoyed big family lunches and dinners, fishing, water skiing, jet skiing, and the famous Fee family pontoon rides every evening after supper. Getting to spend time with your grandma and grandpa, aunts and uncles, and cousins most weekends was truly a blessing.
Spending time with Kevin at the lake — talking about sports and everything else — was always fun. Kevin was a pretty good water skier and a good fisherman, and that was proven one night when he caught “Walter” the walleye off the dock.
He had been trying to catch that fish for years, and one night he finally did. I still remember how excited everyone was. The picture stayed up on the fridge at the cabin until the place was sold.
Spending time with Kevin at sporting events was always fun too, because if we were covering the same game, you knew it was a big one: Crookston vs. EGF, Crookston vs. TRF, section tournaments, state — the big moments.
One of Kevin’s favorite phrases during Stephen-Argyle football’s run of state titles was that there was a “Storm Warning.” He even used it as a headline a few times.
Kevin also loved to give my dad, Frank, the needle. As most of you know, Frank is a pretty excitable guy. Kevin was always calm and cool, but he would say something far out there about sports — or anything else — just to get Frank going. Frank would respond with something like, “What in the heck are you talking about? Are you crazy?” And Kevin would just have that sly, soft laugh. As I got older, I realized exactly what Kevin was doing — and it made it even funnier.
There are so many stories, but he truly was one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met.
He was one of the best writers around, and that was evident during the 1997 flood, when he and the other writers at the Grand Forks Herald won a Pulitzer Prize for their coverage of the tragedy. He covered two Olympic Games for Knight-Ridder Newspapers (the owners of the Herald at the time), and he earned numerous awards and honors throughout his career.
Kevin was a great dad to his three wonderful daughters, and a pretty good husband to Renee (Borowicz), who kept him in line — and who had to deal with Kevin’s famous frugality, something he was well known for within the family.
I’ll speak for Frank and our entire family when I say we have been touched and humbled by all the people who have reached out over the past week, and by everyone who attended the visitation and funeral. It was truly a who’s who of Grand Forks-area sports media, personalities, coaches, and friends.
Even if Kevin loved the Packers, we still loved him. He will be missed.
Please keep his wife Renee, his daughters Ashley, Katie, and Rebecca, and their families in your prayers.

3. Detroit Lakes
4. Thief River Falls
5. Crookston
6. Bagley/Fosston
7. Red Lake Falls
8. Park Rapids
9. Kittson County Central
10. Lake of the Woods
PLAY-IN GAMES (Saturday, February 14 at high seed)
#10 Lake of the Woods at #7 Red Lake Falls – 1:00 PM (On KROX Radio at 12:30 PM)
#9 Kittson County Central at #8 Park Rapids – 2:00 PM
QUARTER-FINALS (Tuesday, February 17 at the high seed)
#5 Crookston at #4 Thief River Falls – 7:00 PM (On KROX Radio and KROX TV)
KCC/PR winner at #1 Warroad – 6:00 PM
#6 Bagley/Fosston at #3 Detroit Lakes – 7:00 PM
LOW/RLF winner at #2 East Grand Forks – 6:00 PM
SEMI-FINALS (Saturday, February 21 at Thief River Falls – REA)
1:00 PM – Crookston/TRF winner vs Warroad/KCC/PR winner
3:30 PM – Bagley/DL winner vs LOW/RLF/EGF winner
CHAMPIONSHIP (Thursday, February 26 at Thief River Falls – REA)
7:00 PM
Here are my predictions for the first two rounds –
RLF beats LOW, and KCC beats Park Rapids
In the quarterfinals, there are some interesting matchups-
I have Crookston knocking off TRF 3-2 in OT. Crookston has something like 50 seniors on the team. Okay, there were 16 seniors in the program at the start of the year. So the senior-laden Pirates will use that energy to make sure they get another game. Garrett Fischer will have a huge game and was the game winner.
Warroad cruises to win
EGF is the hardest team to figure out. It seems they are really good or struggle and have no in between. You have to go with EGF winning, but this could be an interesting one.
I am picking Detroit Lakes to beat Bagley/Fosston. This is one to watch, and don’t be surprised if the Flyers give DL a run for their money.

Section 8AA Girls Basketball Standings
The Section 8AA Girls Basketball standings are about as clear as mud!!! The only for sure seed is Warroad at #14. 1-13 is still up in the air.
If Perham wins out, they will be the top seed. Their last two games are big ones as they take on EGF and DGF. Perham is in the driver’s seat for the top seed.
Frazee is in the driver’s seat for the second seed as they beat DGF twice during the regular season. If they win out, they should be the second seed, but they have some tough opponents left.
It is looking like Menahga will be the fourth seed after a big win over East Grand Forks. I am predicting Menahga will be undefeated and still be the fourth seed.
EGF, Pelican Rapids, and Hawley are fighting for the fifth seed. Hawley has the tie-breaker on Pelican Rapids with two wins. I think if East Grand Forks wins out they could be the fifth seed. They have some big games against some good teams and coming off a win over Frazee and close loss to Menahga.
It looks like Wadena might be stuck in the eight spot. Barnesville and Roseau are fighting for the ninth spot. Park Rapids, Thief River Falls, and Crookston are fighting for the 11th seed. Crookston has the tie-breaker with Thief River Falls so they will be above them. Park Rapids has the tie-breaker with Crookston. Park Rapids and Thief River Falls play on February 19.
There are a lot of big games.

NSIC WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
The Northern Sun Conference playoffs are a few weeks away, and there are some huge games left for the University of Minnesota Crookston Women’s basketball team.
The top 12 teams make the tournament, and UMC is tied for 12th place with Augustana. UMC holds the tie-breaker with Augustana so that is good news. BUT UMC wants to move up and get a better seed, and they are only one win away from tying for ninth place!
UMC has four games left as they host Minot State tonight (Thursday) in a must win game. They host a very good Mary team on Saturday, and host a very good UM-Duluth team on Wednesday, February 18. The final game of the regular season is at Bemidji State on Saturday, February 21 in a MUST WIN game.
UMC has lost to all four teams earlier this season. They lost to Duluth 76-54, lost to BSU 86-76 in OT, lost to Mary 84-68, and lost to Minot State 84-53. Looking at possible tie-breakers, UMC lost to MSU-Moorhead twice, beat Northern State twice, beat Wayne State, lost to Sioux Falls once, and lost to St. Cloud State once.
With that said, UMC has to win two of their last four games to make sure they make the playoffs. UMC is fighting with Minot State, Augustana, Wayne State, and Bemidji State to get one of the final two spots in the postseason! MSU-Moorhead and Sioux Falls are a game ahead of UMC and they seem to have tie-breakers with most teams in the running for the final spots so I am thinking they are in unless they go 0-4 or 1-3 in the final four games.
AUGUSTANA
Augustana plays #2 ranked MSU-Mankato on Thursday. Go Mavs!!
Augustana plays St. Cloud State on Saturday. And the final two games for Augie is SW Minnesota State and Sioux Falls. It is likely they could lose all four.
WAYNE STATE –
Wayne plays St. Cloud State on Thursday and MSU-Mankato on Saturday.
In the last two games, Wayne takes on Sioux Falls and SW Minnesota State. They likely could lose all 4.
BEMIDJI STATE –
The mighty Beavs host Northern State on Thursday and Jamestown on Saturday.
Their last two games are against MSU-Moorhead and UMC.
MINOT STATE –
The might Christmas Beavers (IYKYK) take on UMC on Thursday. I am saying this is a must win for both teams if they want to assure themselves of a playoff spot. Minot State takes on MSU-Moorhead on Saturday. In the final week, they take on Jamestown and Northern State.
It is easy. If UMC beats the Beavers (Minot State and Bemidji State), I am saying they will be in. If they win three or four games they are in and possibly cracking an 8th or 9th seed!!!
Needless to say, tournament time is early for the UMC Women and that is good because they have been playing some good team basketball!!!

JOKES
Two men are sharing a hospital room.
“What are you in for?” The first man says.
“I’m getting a circumcision,” his roommate replies.
“Damn,” exclaims the first man, “I had that done when I was born and I couldn’t walk for a year!”

Two old drunks are sitting in a bar when the first one says, “Ya know, when I was thirty and got an erection, I couldn’t bend it, even using both hands.
By the time I was forty, I could bend it about ten degrees if I tried really hard.
By the time I was fifty, I could bend it about forty five degrees, no problem.
I’m gonna be sixty next week, and now I can bend it in half with just one hand.”
“So,” says the second drunk, “what’s your point?”
“Well, I’m just wondering how much stronger I’m gonna get.”
