The Sicatoka

When they pitch that free phone book on the front step I do rip it in half before throwing it in the recycling bin. Not kidding*. I did it for the neighbor kids one time. They ran the neighborhood gabbing books off front steps and trying it the rest of the day. *It requires power, strength, ... and technique.

I believe you mean the NDUS - the North Dakota University System.

Then people understand my message. I'm tired of the "their whatever is sooooo good" in the week up to a game. That's just an excuse to have in hand if you fail.

The Finn's goaltenders: Rinne and Rask. I'd take that in a heartbeat.

Mafia, sorry for your loss ... but I'm still trying to wrap my head around an Italian living with all the Germans from Russia in Dickinson.

Now there's a detail that matters. Thanks.

Given the non-sense (trespassing, defacing) going on with the SRST right now in Morton County, I'm more than glad UND no longer has any reason to be beholden to that organization. So I guess I'm more and more accepting of the new name and logo every day. DISCLAIMER 1: My comments are based on what the SRST is allowing to happen in their name. DISCLAIMER 2: This is not about pipelines or environment. This is not political. DISCLAIMER 3: You always have the right to protest ... peacefully, lawfully.

Please include details like: Machine: (phone, PC, iPad, etc) Operating System: (Window, Android, iOS) Browser: (Chrome, Safari, MSFT Internet Explorer, etc)

It doesn't count unless you get correct spelling ... and pronunciation.

Uh ... I thought 3 or 20 was going to be the biggest guy on the team. That Rhett Gardner is a big boy.

That number is 13. 2014: UND, SCSU, DU 2015: UND, SCSU, UNO, UMD, M-OH, DU 2016: UND, UMD, SCSU DU

It's clearly a new day at DU. Names like "Conley, Davies, Finlay, Cole." How simple. Even a monosyllabic! Even the Finn is normalish at Borgstrom. It makes you miss the Gwozdecky days with names like Doremus, Juho Olkinuora, Rhett Rakhshani, or Wiercioch . Where's a Ruegsegger when you need one?

So with Georges out, who travels instead? Do they pull another redshirt?

I hate the rugby punt fad out there today. Know how I know it's a fad gimmick? How many NFL teams use it.

I've said from the start that logo looks best small, like a shoulder patch or on a helmet, or like the FB teams' polos. And I don't mind Lexie Shaw's new blocker. The split logo on the pads? Meh.

Here it is, about SBU, about BGSU, point blank. Screw it. Screw them. I don't care how good SBU's defense supposedly is/am/was. I don't care. I don't care how whatever BGSU's offense is. It doesn't matter. I don't care. I say quit psyching ourselves out with "but their whatever is soooo good". Quit looking and worrying about the other guy. Worry about us, just our team, getting better, day by day. Control what is ours to control: our style, our effort, our assignments, our enthusiasm, our mistakes, our game. Play UND Football. Nothing else matters.

He missed where Kennedy has publicly stated, twice, that he has review committees in place (Athletics, and campus) to gather and evaluate information but that the final decisions reside with him.

We're not looking. It's called a full review. Asking internally "Are we in the right conference?" is not the same as actively looking for a new one.

I mean no disrespect and wish no harm to Carson Wentz, but looking at what Philly has around him, what'll happen first: (A) he misses a start due to injury, or (B) he suffers his sixth loss as an NFL starter (one more than the five losses in his five years at NDSU).

It's not all-time conference titles .... that's 17 ... so ... after this season?

Next you'll claim it's Mafia in a monkey suit.

The 2000 Baltimore Ravens on line one for you ...

Expert video analysis by a crack(-using) staff made up of Minnesota Gopher fans has confirmed Mafia's video is a FAKE. Their proof is in the claim that it was shot in North Dakota and appears to show leaves from trees. Every Goophie fan will tell you that's impossible as North Dakota has no trees.

Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte! Daunte!
