Flood of 2013? It's ba-a-a-a-ack ...
-
Is Al Carlson behind this? Can't say; don't know. Will he willingly use this to keep working toward his end goal (dissolution of the ND SBoHE and return of those powers to the Legislature)? Oh yeah ...

We finally deal with the UND moniker. And the fiscal issues at NDSU (Dr. Chapman). And Dr. Shirvani and the turmoil of his tenure as NDUS chancellor. Now this: NDSU president accused of destroying 45,000 emails subject to an open records request http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/404107/ Welcome to the next round of Al Carlson and his Cabal claiming ND SBoHE and the NDUS is completely out of control and looking to wrest control over ND Higher Ed back into the Legislature. Thanks Dr. Bresciani. Edit: Fargo Forum headline updated to: NDSU president denies deleting 45,000 emails subject to open records request; state AG investigating

The endzone is flat and level. It's either green or has a white overlayer. What more representative do you want? Replace the corner pylons with sandbags maybe?

Weak, weak, weak. Try something like this: You're such a pitiful soul that you are out at bars by yourself after closing, hitting on females out of your league (by your own admission), getting into alley brawls, fleeing law enforcement, and then giving Jerry Springer worthy confessionals in the back seat of a squad car. That would be an insult.

Someone really just admitted unfamiliarity with the word "secede"? <facepalm>

Summit League could take over NCHC to survive?
The Sicatoka replied to SiouxVolley's topic in NCAA News
Since we are playing scenarios that are out there ... Let's say the DU/UNO/Summit gambit happens. That'll probably be a couple years out from now. By then the negative gate impact of Big Ten Hockey will have hit UMn/UW. That means UMn/UW will need something to respark their fan bases (because PSU and OSU won't offer the spark). And now the Big Ten has opened the precedent to affiliate members (Johns Hopkins lacrosse in the new Big Ten Lax). So, I say let DU/UNO try that gambit, and then have UND apply (beg?) the Big Ten to let UND play as a hockey affiliate. Hey, I said "out there" ... -
I've had an athletics administator at an NCHC school say as much to me.

If you weren't aware of it, southern Alberta is taking a massive beating right now. High River, AB, Corbin Knight's hometown, is a virtual lake. At least three have died in the flooding. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/story/2013/06/21/alberta-flooding-calgary-canmore-high-water.html The water is up to row nine in the home of the Calgary Flames. https://mobile.twitter.com/Tudec/status/348349538429435904/photo/1 Most of downtown Calgary is flooded. Looks like another time for the good people of Grand Forks to mentor those facing an ugly recovery process. To those of you facing this mess, stay safe.

The referees' whistles are on the side of a milk carton. The non-call on the Frolik trip with 15 seconds to play is just stunning. Basically anything less than manslaughter is no call. Manslaughter is a two-minute minor.
-
That way is completely easy and predictable: Secede. The NCAA is a completely voluntary association. Secede and create "The SPATT" ... short for Sec, Pac12, Acc, big Ten, big Twelve.

<ding> Winner. PS - That decision will be based not on some wonderful altruistic view of college football, but, quite simply, just The Benjamins.
-
Observations: - Leddy has been terrible*. Finally "The Q" sits him. - It seems only two types of penalties get called: too many men or high sticks. - Crawford is a headcase on anything high glove right now. Paging Mr. Emery, Mr. Ray Emery ... please report to the blue painted ice ... *and not just because he's a stinkin' Goldie.

The admittedly wonderful looking but will we ever see it drawings of a new football stadium on the site of Memorial did not show a track encircling the field. Those drawings envisioned an outdoor track and soccer area (and second parking ramp) in the area that is now a parking lot east of Columbia Road and south of University. That says to me that (a) there is room for the ITF to come west, and (b) the ITF Phase 2 might be "under" an east grandstand of such a football stadium.
-
For a group that recently, gleefully told UND fans "the NCAA is a voluntary organization" they sure don't seem to understand that when it could come around and gore their ox (or bison).

So ... not sheep ... <obligatory NDSU shot>

Go to UND. Wear 19 in NHL for Chicago. Win Selke.
-
That's not a bad idea ...
-
Why? The problem concerns me; what comes after is what I'm interested in. This is not Mister Beck's first problem involving alcohol and fleeing from law enforcement. That's my interest. UND has four hockey guys short scholarship dollars for a second alcohol incident that didn't involve fleeing. I'm interested to see how NDSU handles this problem (which also has the overhanging issue of violence/agreeing to a fight).
-
I thought agreeing to public brawling (aka a bar fight in a back alley) is the definition of "disorderly conduct". Where are those charges for those involved?
-
Because ABC/ESPN owns the broadcast rights and they marketing (ESPN) what they are producing (on ABC).
-
Mr. Bohl has a teachable moment. What will he teach.
-
Guys, I was pointing out that 'the marble' didn't go pocket to pocket in OT like it normally does.
-
Blackhawks get called for two too-many-men calls in the OTs; I saw the Bruins get a stick up in the face of a defenseman and at least one hold (on Toews) and a trip uncalled. I shake my head at how the NHL game changes (is called differently) in the post-season.

If the lines listed are correct, you'll see Sharp and Bickell swapped by the middle of the second.
