The Sicatoka

Me? Carnac? No. I was channeling my inner SiouxVolley (may he RIP): dollars, markets, basically do you add value comparable to what you take. Said another way ... If you're gonna take a burger and a brat at the conference Labor Day picnic you'd better have brought beverages and some good potato salad, and a pan of brownies wouldn't hurt.

My first miss ... kinda ... I had the 4C to the BXII and UW/UO to B1G. Initially I had CaliStan to B1G but amended that a month ago to ACC so ... partial. Now just need WasSU and OrSU to admit what they really are and land in the MWC. If the AAC pulls (to replace SMU) it'll be from within footprint and likely back in Texas.

Never liked the bent, stretched, and warped Denver wordmark jersey (last season's I believe) but the following is a good summary of the new one. Next thing you know they'll return to the "ketchup and mustard" jerseys of the 1980s and 1990s.

@Clark17 would like a word. (Check his avatar.)

When I read the @Oxbow6 attendance prediction I do it in an Eeyore voice ... oh bother ...

I so hope his team nickname was "Raging" ...

Is this UND's Jesse Bull? (Schlossman retweeted it.)

I did not know you are a graduate of the Cary Eades School of Misconduct.

At SDSU, at UNI, at UND, and three they forget to set the alarm clock for?

Official numbers day is September 18.

WDAY Radio gets the story out before ForumComm? Strange ... or not really. What say you @Teeder11?

Pat Micheletti: winner of "Facepalm Tweet of the Day", Aug 31, 2023 Congrats Pat.

35!?!?! And he's an NDSU bobo! That's normally a season's worth of PA for them. Hokey-smokes.

And the choir says "Amen! Preach!"

Do we know the budgets were not reviewed. If they weren't I'd say y'all need to take action at the ballot box. It's no small task either. I've annually gone through and questioned a budget book that's grown to $150M over the last decade. Best thing you can have is a CFO that has miserly tendencies.

< shamelessly stealing for future use > NDSU has a propensity to be able to replace offensive linemen seamlessly. Until that changes any of us could average 3.5 yards per behind their line. Do I believe NDSU has shown weakness and vulnerability? Yes. Enough to take them from a dominant FCS role? TBD. Likely not.

Psst ... Danny "Blacktoes" Kristo can hear you ...

@nodak651 : your map is missing the Kraken. KC, ATL, HOU all can make good cases. But so can TOR for a second team (see NYC in MLB, NFL; CHI in MLB).

God made some perfect heads. The rest He covered with hair.

" ... he's got nicknames ... shows his dance ... " RIP Doug

Is there waste? Indubitably. Unfortunately right now cutting every iota of waste will still be overcome by increasing prices for material and labor.

Someone show this to Gaber and Blake so they have an alternate shoot-out move.

Contrarian, but I'd rather sit in a room and chat for 30 minutes with Lucia before Motzko. Not sure exactly why but that's my gut reaction. But Woog would be the first choice.

With these grand plans of teams moving to DI, UND had better be planning "the future" of hockey also and what resources that'll take. Gifts from the Engelstad Family Trust are greatly appreciated, but I foresee needing more than just their goodwill.

The Golden Gopher Rule: they think they're golden, they think they get to make the rules.
