The Sicatoka

Weasel words? One man's weasel words is another's posing of a hypothetical question. I see that as posing a hypothetical question without the overhead of explicitly saying "Hypothetically, could it be he wants ... ". I have no problem with hypothetical questions because they make one think critically, and outside of one's comfort zone, about a situation.

From the same Forum link, Sounds like a version with more line items to me.

Idaho is playing SBC FB in 2016 and 2017. That's already in the contract. This is the "something NOW" action set in preparation for the 2018 FB season. If Idaho gets punted from the SBC in a couple weeks and the NCAA acts in March shortly after that (when they are meeting), that's two years from the start of the 2018 FB season. Shockingly enough, two years is the duration of an FCS --> FBS transition ( see: Volley's theory ) I'm not saying it's going to happen (lots and lots of moving parts in many, many places), but the timeline behind Volley's theory is still in play.

But what if the Big Sky ... ( see Volley's theory ) ...

Like I said before, eliminate the circle object behind the eye that gives clear reference to a (native) head dress and it'd be pretty solid.

What would be Idaho's best case scenario? Being able to play FBS money games and have home FBS games against nearby rivals (to fill the seats).

In Marvel Comics the Baxter Building is home to the Fantastic Four. I guess you only find fantastic things at home in the Baxter in the comics.

"Never" is an awfully big word to hang your hat on. All it takes is once to blow it up.

Bismarck, Century, Legacy, St. Mary's, Shiloh. Three publics, two private. Toss in Mandan for the metro area. Compare to metro Greater Grand Forks: GFC, GFRR, EGF, Sacred Heart. Three publics, one private.

I can't decide what you're more upset about: - Ed Schafer coming onto the scene for UND, leading by setting firm expectations for departments to meet, and fixing the budget shortfall issues in very short order (and you know a former governor would not blow smoke about having done something like that), or - NDSU embarrassing itself by putting out a one-line budget reduction "plan" (and getting called out on it by their local media mouthpiece). It's probably Schafer, because nothing NDSU could do, even putting out that farce of a plan document, would you ever question.

Omaha's RPI is pretty good so that wins a lot of PWR comparisons. Then you do toss in their non-conference record and you win a lot of common opponent comparisons.

They do things a little different in Oh-Ma-Hah.

I really wouldn't go there when NDSU Accounting looks like this. http://www.inforum.com/news/3947253-ndsus-64-million-budget-cut-plan-sent-system-office-has-just-one-line

Is that problematic* in that NDSU student government asked a direct question and didn't get a direct answer from NDSU Athletics? *Problematic in the state law open records, freedom of information, sense.

Since you've made the phone call why not just share?

Second day after an injury is always the worst.

For those who don't know the backstory: http://bismarcktribune.com/news/local/shayna-monson-recovering-slowly-after-june-crash/article_54112e02-725d-5a1c-a345-364d4735e785.html I have no pity, sympathy, or mercy for drunk drivers.

Seriously? A -265? That's insane on an NCHC game, especially on the road team.

I made a similar prediction on USCHO when a Duluth fan (Biddco?) said he hoped UMD got swept at SCSU to hurt UND. I told him such a wish guaranteed no worse than a split for UMD.

UND is the favorite in that. http://sportsgambling.about.com/od/sportsgambling101/a/intromoneylines.htm Bet $150 on UND to win $100; bet $100 on Omaha to win $110, Or for the "gimme the numeric details" folks https://www.reddit.com/r/sportsbook/comments/tc24v/understanding_money_lines_or_what_does_110_really/

As reported by the Fargo Forum.

WCHA Quarter Final Game 1: UND 6, SCSU 1

It extends beyond the fans apparently. http://www.inforum.com/news/3947253-ndsus-64-million-budget-cut-plan-sent-system-office-has-just-one-line One line item saves having to do all that fancy cypherin'.

A five-letter French-derived word? If the NCAA were a public entity you'd have a First Amendment case. It's not, and the case is over.

I think of Empire Arts as not where you'd find sports fans but folks that were behind how we got here in the first place. I want sports fans giving the input, not the "Leigh Jeanottes" and "Lucy Ganges" of the world. Am I stereotyping the Empire Arts crowd? Yup. And if you don't like it please see my attorneys' Facebook page.
