All you said was " ... made it do [sic] the NHL ... "; you didn't say "career." Don't like "Jensen" as an answer? How about "Lefty" and the WHL? (Yeah, it's not the NHL ... ) http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=6669

How do the pollsters keep Montana and Montana State straight?

I guess I never knew the definition of "unhappy victory" before you demonstrated it so well here.

I used to love guys who'd wear the glass shield. I'd put a little greasy stuff on the outside edge of my glove and any chance I'd get I'd put a little grease onto the visor of an opponent. It's not easy to play while looking through a dirty, greasy window.

Dear Don "Chewey" Quixote, the windmill you're looking for is in Indianapolis. PS - Please, eschew polysyllabic profundity and eschew sesquipedalian obfuscation.

I have $10 that says that was not the biggest administrative error that day at the NCAA the day that was shipped. I have another $10 that says that wasn't a "top ten" administrative screw-up for that week at the NCAA.

As of the YES vote on Measure 4 and the ND SBoHE's actions at their June 14 meeting, no, the sanctions are no longer in place against UND because it no longer has a moniker that is in non-compliance with the NCAA policy.

Do I need to call the Securities Exchange Commission on you (for "insider trading")?

The only way you can make that statement is if you are really Gene Taylor. Otherwise, the most you can say is that you can " ... speculate that the result would have been ... " However, as others have pointed out, your speculation and the NSDU track record may not align.

Watch a more powerful and more corrupt organization fill the void?

No, people who had no problem with the logo but were cornered by the NCAA into having to retire it are victims of a bad policy. Rather than harping on us, why not go and fix the NCAA. You seem to have the answers. PS - So 67.35% of those who voted on Measure 4 are "elitists" doing the "NCAA's bidding"? If that many are "elite" I guess it's not such an elite group. http://results.sos.nd.gov/resultsCTY.aspx?text=BQ&type=SW&rid=285&cty=0&osn=915&map=CTY&districtLG=1

Seat belt law? Naw, not similar enough. The State of North Dakota only mandates that motorcycle riders wear a helmet if they are under 18 years of age. You ever had a dragonfly bounce off your cheek bone at a hundred and ... , er, ... uh, ... at the legally posted speed limit? So the comparison: Speed. Check. Force. Check. Risk of eye or facial damage. Check. Post impact concussion. Check. Having your head open up spilling your grey matter after you slide on the surface ... uh, not seeing that in hockey so much .. Seems to me motorcycling is more dangerous but that doesn't mandate a helmet, much less facial protections, if you are 18 years or older.

Paging Dr. Kevorkian, .. Dr. Kevorian to Johnboy ... STAT! Dude, you so set yourself up for that.

Haven't lost a bet in a long time, eh?

Dave, you're angry. I get that. (But it's no excuse and it surely won't be considered one if the namecalling continues.) As I've said before, this is a loss. You're moving through the five stages of grief. (Heck, I did back in 2000 when I realized sooner or later someone would ultimately find the Achilles heel of the moniker.) If your anger really is that bad, please, deal with it up to and including seeking help. (If not for yourself, do it for the people who have to be around you.) If it's not, please, quit using it as an excuse. Life doesn't always go your way. God help you the day something really catastrophic happens in your life if this sets you off so badly.

GIven that an REA board member (Strinden) supported Measure 4, I don't think we'll be seeing that.

Were you number one on the season tickets waiting list?

Yes, and those trophies wil still be sitting in trophy cabinets at the University of North Dakota. The teams were called Fighting SIoux. The team are from the University of North Dakota.

And the Bradley Braves have eliminated all Native references. Now they're just Brave (insert Disney/Pixar movie joke here).

That is correct. I am the lone and sole decider. PS - There is a thread for this in the Sioux Name forum. I'm closing this one.

Take it back. Take that back right now.
