"Today I made an appearance downtown, I am an expert witness because I say I am ... "

Putting the answer another way ....

No. I'm a ... hillbilly rockstar out of control! How do you like me now?

No, positively, or like "'burd' is 180 degree off."

Chris? "He'll put a (hockey) boot in your ...", it's the Fighting Sioux way.

I believe he threw a 'some country' in right at the end (or was it one of the others).

'cuz uz beez da "sudo-" ree-por-tah ex-trah-or-din-air.

One last thought: "redwing77", in your Post #20 of that thread I linked to, where you say, "When I think of country music, ..." think Chris Porter and Jon Toews.

Friday's "Ask the Sioux" question: What kind of music do you listen to? All four who answered used the word "Country" at some point in their answers. Now, tell me again: How crazy am I? "Ev'rybody says, "Save a horse, ride a cowboy!" What? What?"

With both at 7-1, which school has played the tougher schedule? Let's go to an objective source: Massey. School StrOfSchedule* UND 132 NDSU 171 Thanks for coming out. Johnny, tell 'im his parting gifts. * smaller number means more difficult schedule, UC-Berkeley ("Cal") is 1.

You missed a key to the context: 4 of 21 is top 20%. Very nice.

A recap of things that came off the pages at me (things in quotes from the NCAA brief): "Because membership ratification of all governance decisions is highly impractical" But the DI and DII manuals say:

Dilks writes an article and presents it to Dogbert: Courtesy and original credit to Scott Adams, Dilbert comic strip, 15 May 1989.

I know it'd strain a finger but a scroll up to Post #4 would find: " ... one-third of the highest regular established ticket price as established prior to the season ... "

Dear Gary (and willing accomplices of all sort), Although your timing of this spectacle was near perfect (last day to drop and the week before the hearing for preliminary injunction), your public, education-self-immolation will have a total meaning of zero in the matter of "State of ND (et al) v. NCAA."

Interesting.

Western Kentucky just announced a move to DI-A. Go here and look at their average attendance in the last 10 years. (scroll, link in link under "LT Smith Stadium") Don't get fooled by "total", or "highest single", look at "average". How's that going to work?

..., or not.

Thursday is "game day" in State of ND (et al) v. NCAA. Has the NCAA filed anything with the court yet?

Earl would need verbal permission from Jack Abramoff first, as would Kent. And Byron, he'd need written.

Birds of a feather....

I'll give ya a definite possibility of a for-sure maybe, or not.

For one side of the issue AISS can do "one-stop shopping" for you by pointing you to their favorite website. Where you'll struggle is finding out about things like Mr. Lapointe's behavior here. That's not as interesting to the media (for whatever reason). My point of view on digging for truth comes from a quote by Dr. Kupchella to US College Hockey Online:

... we live in interesting times.
