  1. And you've never slowed down and rubber-necked at a bloody car crash.
  2. I saw the thread title and figured "Larry the Cable Guy" and the rest of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour started posting here.
  3. Ron Hextall's kid? A Hextall with a firey, nasty streak? Sayitaintso.
  4. Most. West Fargo beat themselves by not reestablishing late first-half momentum with their opening drive of the second half. (They'd scored the last 10 points of the half to make a 14-10 halftime game.) Instead, West Fargo stalls at mid-field and then the punter droped the snap on an attempted punt on 4th and 2. South got the short field, and went up 21-10. Game. (Yeah, early to call it, but that's what it was.)
  5. Reading this list, it looks like the "Grand Forks" television market (best described by folks who can receive WDAZ-TV over the air) with the exception of Cable One in "Fargo, SD". If they're going over Cable One in Fargo, clearly there's no "TV market overlap" issues. Why not just put it on all of the normal Fighting Sioux Sports Network outlets? Why do I say that? Midco will not have me as a viewer at all on Fri/Sat unless UND/UW is on. (I sure ain't watchin' Goldie when I can listen to The Sioux.)
  6. For those of you at a distance .... http://www.kx4.com The GF shot is from CAS; the Fargo shot is from near I-94 and University.
  7. How about this? (See post 20 in the same thread to understand. )
  8. I knew it would draw 'em out of the woodwork.
  9. Folks, m-a-r-k-e-t-i-n-g c-a-m-p-a-i-g-n, and a good one. I know it's not the norm for UND but a coordinated campaign is a good move. And our exposure to such has been, how shall we say, not as 'well received' in all quarters; as examples from NDSU: "S-ream Yellow" or this year's "thUNDderstruck". (I just know Bison fans love it when I emphasize the "UND" in thUNDer, ala "thUNDerstruck" or "thUNDering herd" to emphasize how much they wish they were UND.)
  10. You're probably overqualified with that group.
  11. Keep that up and you'll get hired by the NCAA in Indianapolis, Indiana. You got their "logic" down.
  12. Seems like the wrong tactic to me: If you believe the name will go away, the last stuff will become "collectables" and fly off the shelves (at premium).
  13. Goon, buddy, how could UND keep that four-feather and a person logo when William and Mary have to drop two feathers off a "WM" (just letters) logo?
  14. http://www.grandforksherald.com/articles/i...mp;section=News
  15. Or like the title of a bad Emilo Estevez movie.
  16. Catchy? Dorky? For reference see also ....
  17. The past few years the marketing of UND athletics has gone with a theme. Look back at all the schedule posters (FB, hockey, BB) from 2003, and 2004, and 2005, and now 2006. Each has had a "theme" or "look" to them. This year's theme and look includes a catchy phrase: "Force of the North." If that makes some restless, so be it.
  18. A more complete accounting from the preliminary injunction statement:
  19. I'm thinking a judge may force them (NCAA) into enacting a Coasian Solution. How about this one: Dear NCAA, you must either (a) grant UND the same waiver as FSU, or (b) pay all of UND's bills for a moniker change (from facilities like REA, turf at The Al, to stationery letterhead), plus anything fans want to "exchange" for updated moniker materials, like jackets, jerseys, flags, license plate frames, anything. I say that last part as partial compensation for Complaint point 82 (see below). Yes, it could cost them much more in the end than if they'd have done it up front.
  20. So you'll capitulate. Nice lesson. He's an educator. Tell me which those are again ....
  21. What more appropriate to play than "Shining Star" after a goal from that line?
