The Sicatoka

At North Dakota they get playing time ...

I’m kinda liking the VGK home uniform. The grey helmets are way better than expected. It’d be an interest pattern to follow for a college for a third uniform ...

Per @UNDFootball360 tweet: Allow me to explain that for the FB novices: Ouch.

He and Kawaguchi seemed to read plays the same way. Must be a BCHL thing.

Sincere question: At what point* does UND start Studrud but bring in Zimmerman or Heidelbaugh for game reps with this offense to see if they are the next QB? *Meaning how many more losses. **You don't bring in Boltmann this season as it would burn a playing season. Not sure if Ketteringham is eligible yet after his transfer.

Tom Miller with an honest assessment.

The bad news: UND is decimated by injuries and will most likely have to run the table to have a remote shot at post season. The good news: Some guys who would be getting first game reps are juniors are now getting them as redshirt freshmen. Experience, and the coaches seeing what they really have earlier in the recruiting cycles, isn't a bad thing*. *What stinks is how we got it.

Young Mr. Kawaguchi seemed to draw the ire of the Bisons. By my observation the lad may have a bit of "Marchand" to him.

The levels of replay .... - "Yup. There's the proof. Call on the play was wrong. Overturn it." - "Uh ... wow, that's close. Let's look one more time. ... Wow that's close. I can't tell. That doesn't show anything one way or the other. Call stands." - "Why are we reviewing this? Call was correct."

The preceding message was brought to you by Dahlstrom Motors in Oslo.

So the Sky created a new football schedule cluster of Montana, Montana State, and Idaho.

Seems like a lot of effort and planning for not a big deal staring at Fargo in the near future. The site shows a plan to have 150 to 180 cfs of Missouri water going through a pipe to the Sheyenne (which drains to the Red so Fargo can get it). For comparison, right now, the Sheyenne is flowing at 700 cfs through Valley City. That's some significant water ... that would need to be pumped uphill until it enters the Sheyenne/Red basin (where it could run back down).

You could stop there. We'll be the pariah for a while longer.

I think "Noo" should've chosen "SJW" as a screen name.

Any healthy organization looks at what it's doing, why it's doing it, and how it's doing it, ... continually. It looks at the people on staff, the skills mix, and the work that needs to be done. It keeps self-evaluating and re-assigning work and tasks to people best skilled for the needs. It finds gaps in the team skill set; it finds gaps, overlaps, or shortcomings in what they are doing. The good organizations use retirements or resignations not as "got to fill X's job" events but as, "what was X doing, is that still needed, what else to we need to start doing" re-creation of position events to meet a continually changing world. Organizations that haven't behaved in this manner need help to evaluate where they at and to get their way of thinking converted to this better way. Having a rotary-dial telephone repair person or a buggy whip re-stringer on staff because we've always had one is no way to operate, especially when there's 21 century work that needs to get done that isn't.

Yup. Any new Med or Law won't be public. I don't see UJ doing it. But as SV says ... Mary? ... maybe ...

I stand by my statement.

The NFL can do whatever it pleases ... as can I ... < click >.
