  1. And I gave the link. Do a Google search if nothing else.
  2. Careful there too. Taylor (Chapman?) has brought that notion up to help NDSU athletics.
  3. The Fighting Sioux Club raised more money than TeamMakers last year. Brookings is smaller than Grand Forks. And finally, from http://www.in-forum.com/articles/index.cfm?id=130767
  4. Most recently reported (updated) census figures, Fargo's population decreased. Shut 'er down. Money drain? Hockey? From UND's DI Report (FY05 numbers): Mens Hockey revenues: $4,145,039 Mens Hockey expenses: $3,374,206 Womens Hockey revenues: $267,772 Womens Hockey expenses: $543,527 Do the math: UND Hockey is "net black."
  5. Careful. The academic fiscal year just ended for NDUS schools and that statement may have some, shall we say, "recoil."
  6. Cross-reference: Brendan Morrison, Michigan, 1997.
  7. That's not exactly a "ringing endorsement" of a move. Where's all the negativism toward UNO and their chancellor for that?
  8. Believing firmly in the law, the Law of Unintended Consequences that is, I see this notion of benefitting the "good PP teams" backfiring: I see the WCHA's "situational officials" seeing teams getting slammed with giving up 30+% goals in PK situations. I see those same officials not wanting to give the team with the 30+% powerplay more opportunities. I see those officials (led by Bruce "league parity is good" McLeod) letting weaker teams get away with even more (rather than putting them down a man) because of this "no icing on PK" notion. However, let it be said, under a "no icing on PK" system, I believe you'll see teams putting in taller glasss so it's easier to go "high off the glass" out to center and yet not ice the puck.
  9. "Are you kidding me?" And here I thought you were paying more attention to Lenny Briscoe than Jack McCoy.
  10. That's where I'm at in this. All this squirming around just tells me that they don't have any other "play" in the courts. Allan Sjodin: "The procedure needs to be right. ... We have one misson -- justice for her."
  11. Off the meds again, eh?
  12. Who was the guy that kept telling you, when Jordan was recruited, that he isn't a "tip of the hat" to Zach or JP but a real, solid goalie with very good potential? Who was that again? What'd that guy say again? Oh yeah, something like, "Jordan may well go down in Sioux Hockey history as more significant than Zach."
  13. New Gopher Hockey team rules: - no more "tickets for cover" exchanges, only "sticks or other gear for cover" - any minors have to pay cover for non-minor fellow players they're with - recruits are no longer allowed to be the designated driver away from Blarney's (You know I'm kidding and picking on an easy target.)
  14. Does everyone who signs immediately go to the NHL? Do teams sign guys who can't do much more in college to develop in the minors, especially goalies? (How long was Ed Belfour down before he started winning Vezina's and Cups?) If you believe the average Sioux fan thinks Parise will have Martin Brodeur's job by November 1, you need to buy a better quality tin foil to make hats out of from now on.
  15. It is a tough decision (if it's even being looked at). Look at what DU went through in 1999. If DU has "weather concerns", what do we have in North Dakota? As far as upgrading Kraft or building a new field, would this really help UND recruit against Newman Field? Would $2.5 million really be DI calibre?
  16. Because of speculation by fans on an Internet board? I sure hope not. Prospects should be listening to this, not fans here:
  17. No, no. With this new "rock star" fame, he's going by "C-Kup." He'll be introducing a new line of fashion for the ladies very soon. The slogan is, "Every lady wants to fill out a C-Kup." PS - "Dirty" and "PCM" are again battling, this time to be C-Kup's agent.
  18. Depends on which river and where on it (meaning flood protected like the Red in Winnipeg).
  19. I have a feeling that this will not be the last we hear of this matter.
  20. Golf course? Nah. I'd rather have a lot in a cul-de-sac with trees and a river defining the backyard. PS - " 2,500-square-foot"? Did they forget to measure and add in the den?
  21. Agree. Agree, as long as "conditionally" means by the process defined in the contract. This is a legislative matter and it did not follow the legislative process for changes. UND argues "no." (From Dec 23, 2005, UND to NCAA correspondence):
  22. Let's recap: PCM brings up a series of articles written by an Illinois partisan, one of which borrows a quote from Tarkanian v. NCAA. IowaBison notes Tarkanian was overturned. I point out that this isn't a "state actor" case but a "contract law" case and that the NCAA Executive Committee may have overreached. IowaBison asks how so I answer. IowaBison points out NCAA constitution 4.1.2 and 2.6. Minor squabbling over POVs ensues. I point out 1.2 (a-h), all of 1.3, and 2.2.2, all of which show that ExecComm may have overreached. IowaBison jumps on the "tribal support" question (and is shown again that Spirit Lake stands by their 2000 resolution). IowaBison, why'd you leave the "contract law" question? And as far as the "support" question, from Spirit Lake Tribe A05-01-041 " ... something positive ... ", though clearly a subjective measure, may be occurring right here, right now, on this board (how's that for suckin' up to the Administrator?):
  23. Well, that's nice, but that's a "principle"; here are the expressly stated purposes of the organization,
  24. I'd guess you're very close given (from June 7, 2006):

    I spy...

    Dear God! I think my mind's eye just went blind!
