The Sicatoka

And a chaser! And a bonus, because it's the month we're all looking forward to ...

Double shot!

Kenny, Michael, and their "Brothers" had this figured out long, long ago ... "Sioux", she's gone. What we believe we created it "never made her think twice". http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/doobie+brothers/what+a+fool+believes_20042480.html

Yup.

First, his name is Robert O. Kelley. Next, Tom Clifford actually stated that if he couldn't get the tribal councils to support the name even he'd have to change it. Folks, the name was dead the minute the settlement agreement called for *both* Sioux tribes in ND having to approve it. The chance of Standing Rock approving it has never been good.

He would do what administrators in his position always do: Follow the Benjamins.

EERC math.

Regulating dust on a farm ... Waiter, check please.

The NCAA selects the facility that its post-season games are played in. To not allow REA due to Indian related imagery but not hold that standard regarding United Center would open the NCAA to legitimate question. And I'm just talking buildings here, not teams.

I'll guess the one in the toughest financial shape.

"The event had a strong voting contingent throughout the bracket, and rightly so." Uh, ... voting? Bracket? When? Where? That's about all that needs to be said.

The NCAA is "concerned" about the imagery in the facility. The host wouldn't matter if the imagery is the issue. The NCAA will just not choose a facility with such imagery, no matter the host. Of course, by taking that stance they daren't allow an NCAA event to be played in United Center in Chicago else they open themselves to charges of hypocricy and possibly even legal action from who knows which directions.

That's really not the story. In the first OT he made a key 20+ yard catch over the middle to get the drive deep into Montreal territory. In the second OT he made another catch of about 20 yards to get it down to the 1 yard line. On the next play he caught the game-winning TD. Those of us with it watched it on NFL Network in HD. Unfortunately, Donovan Alexander got a lot of screen time too ... because Montreal's QB was throwing at him, and being relatively successful. Tim Tibesar was there coaching Montreal's linebackers. http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/167361/

Having read the article about Berry to Columbus I think "no" is a safe answer.

And Number 16 goes into the rafters ... "The NIFA championship is the equivalent to the NCAA Championships for athletics," said Bruce Smith, dean of the John D. Odegard School of Aerospace Sciences. 16 out of 26 ... that's pretty good.

It's been done: Yeshiva University (in NY) calls itself the Maccabees.

Clearly "programs or actions designed to help those who are less fortunate" are based in good intentions. Our intentions were good when we put American Indians on reservations and gave them sovereign nation status. How has that worked out? What is it about about high crime rates, massive unemployment, rampant poverty and widespread mental and physical health problems that make some folks defend this system and keep it in place? Our intentions were good when we attempted to assimilate American Indians into our culture by outlawing their religion, banning their languages and forcing their children to attend schools that taught them the "white" way. We now know that was too extreme and probably a mistake. Our intentions were good when we created the Indian Health Service to provide the reservations with government health care. Can anyone claim with a straight face that this has been good for Native Americans? By any objective standard, health care on the reservations is a disaster. We've gone from one extreme to the other, all with the best of intentions. Rather than forcing American Indians to assimilate into our society and contribute to it (while retaining their unique cultural values), we've decided that it's best to pretend that they can live in the past and retain their old ways. By pretending that they are independent entities when they are not, we've created a group of perpetual victims. But, hey, our intentions were good when we did it. You'll probably disregard this because of where it comes from, but, Sean Hannity's former call screener who was a huge animal rights activist. He once made her tell the story of how she bought a live lobster to save it from a restaurant's boiling pot. She didn't know it was a sea creature when she released it in a freshwater lake. Plus, she was so afraid of it biting her that she left the rubber bands on its claws when she let it go. When Hannity told her that she's condemned the lobster to a long, slow death because it couldn't survive in freshwater and couldn't feed itself without its claws, she gave the classic reply: "But my intentions were good!" The rubber of good intentions tends to skid into the ditch when faced with the asphalt of the real world.

You have to wonder if more people listened to Ed when he was on KFGO than now when he's on MSNBC.

Thank you for the textbook definition of "ad hominem". But do you have anything to say about the point raised?

Thinking about it is a game. Skating towards the stands would be a full weekend. And then the "Tuesday night" elevations would be tagged on.

Indubitably.

Either way, Texas got exactly what it wanted: all the power over the outcome.
