Cratter Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Way cooler name. Make it happen. Someone make a shirt I'll buy one. This might be that "organic" name some people were looking for.... There's a lot of publicity to be had here..... Whatever happens, UND really needs to seperate itself from the (hawks) pack! What's made UND great? Its ability to not follow the crowd and blaze its own path... (and thats why this name is sooooo disappointing...I hear hawks on the tv and its like owe "that hawks" ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can be bitter or I can change my bucket list... Yea, I don't think so.. I'm pretty good at predictions and I'm feeling pretty good about the Sioux name sticking around for a long time. I don't think the shills, the mandated use the fighting Hawks once per press article policies, the in a given situation in a game-change the situation to be less conductive to Sioux fan chants, fear mongering of NCAA retribution for fans use,of Sioux name, Goons passion for jamming Fighting Hawks into every other sentence in his articles, and the shills and sheep narrating a pejorative in response to every spoken word of support for using the Sioux name- despite all of that I say it lives on very well... 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it was just the fans recognizing the last group of players to wear the Sioux Jersey.. oh.. wait...that was last years propaganda... disregard last statement.... ...It was just a few misguided students doing those cheers in between killing babies and getting their swastikas touched up... 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Fighting Hawks is the nickname of UND's sports teams. Last time I checked, the Fighting Sioux nickname has been gone since 2012. Actually, I checked, and Virg, Schloss and Miller all use Fighting Hawks, too. Hadji does too. Why don't you call them out while you're at? Dude, seriously, the nickname is Fighting Hawks, what hell am I supposed to write? 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post siouxfaninseattle Posted January 26, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2016 If any of you are in the crowd booing the new nickname, stop it. I dislike it as much as anyone, but booing your own team (which is essentially what you are doing) only drags out the whole fiasco. If you don't want to use it, fine. Just don't boo it. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSioux Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Just ignore the name we had to have one but it doesn't have to define us - there are many schools that don't use their nickname as their primary name - they use their school's name. "UND UND UND"....North Dakota North Dakota North Dakota - maybe UND will take the hint. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
