For what its worth, UND had the black pants during the USD game this year...Pat Sweeney said it was "what the players wanted." And apparently it brought them a little bit of good luck.

FYI me and DakotaDan are HUGE Sioux fans....we want nothing but the best for "our" team! and "we" will do whatever it takes to make it so!!!!!!

I know a bartender there, Ben, who is having a benefit tonight there. I will shortly be attending. I mentioned I heard that since the apt were built it was starting to draw an younger crowd too. He said he didn't necessarily agree.

Dude had heart for UND that's for sure:

No. I believe they use to work at the regular one or something.

Did anyone really expect this team to regress from last year?

It's obviously this team has lost all chemistry.

I there last year and the Friday game the upper bowl was open attendance was 11181. The UNO fans kept telling us saturday there would be a big dip in attendance as Nebraska had a home game. They were right as attendance was 7027. Both nights the upper bowl was not "closed off."

Growing old is a given, growing up is optional

Yeah that and the white sauce is legendary. But I don't know how much appeal it has if you're out of town...its almost like fast food....great for the locals.

I emailed them with this information. Hope they respond.

sadly this is a reoccuring thing in hockey.

While you have a point. I don't try and discredit people just cause they never attended UND. He is a true bloood Fighiting Sioux fan. While I don't agree with him, he has heart and for that he is a great Sioux fan.

there is the quote buddy!!!! Keep the blinders on! God bless your soul.

Call me crazy. I don't think its that bad. I don't see that many alternatives....its the interlocking ND or basically "North Dakota." I see the mens jerseys being different, but I can't imagine it being much different. People won't like them one way or another.

Did you see the quotations around "trendy"? Can you name a more "trendy" bar in Grand Forks? Didn't think so. Why are you here to argue what you think is trendy and how its not "trendy" compared to other bars? You serve no purpose. Do you know the definition of eclectic? It means deriving its style from a broad range. O' Reilly's doesn't have a real "identity" It has a little of everything or nothing. You want to argue about the word "eclectic." Who cares. You serve no purpose. Rhombus Rooftop might be closed by Oct 27. I will text Aaron Hendricks and check. You don't have a problem with me calling Rhombus "hip"?

Ok just tell me how much time and money to get this done and I will make it happen!

Please go away troll. Let me save you the time. " fargo is better."

Win percent is a better indicator. But the best indicator is regular and postseason. In that category you are right UND is #1.

You might wanna read that again. #1 If you include postseason.

Ok good to know. Thanks. I have not really been there since they opened. Although I was there on New Years Eve. Had a good time. There was a band in the ballroom which was opened by a wall into the bar. I suspect when they remodeled a few years ago to open it up, it helped bring in the crowds.

While I never really go on Say Anything Blog. It apparently has an influence. Journalism is long gone out the window. "Journalists" are just people. They shouldn't really have any more influence than me and you. They get things wrong a lot. They control the message of the country. I have learned many things about this country thanks to youtube that the MSM doesn't ever talk about. I think its good to have many outlets of information. And in some ways I think some blogs are actually helping expose the truth that many mainstream media doesn't report on.....Not necessarily talking about SAB, but many others in the political realm. While you might not agree with SAB, I haven't seen anything that is posted there that is "wrong." My biggest issue is this, which was printed not on a blog, but in an actual "newspaper". Should I believe a newspaper or people trying to discredit him on a anonymous siouxsports blog.

It is possible to see the truth and still think we should move on? I don't see those are mutually exclusive. I agree it's best to move on and get a new nickname. There is really nothing UND can do at this point. The sanctions would continue. My biggest issue now is how UND is going to choose a new nickname. I fear it will not be an open process and our president, who has a history of backdoor shady dealings, will ultimately pick the name. But I guess that is three years away and if you ask me this is also dysfunctional to UND. It gives people like DaveK hope for three years and won't make the name issue go away anytime soon. If they don't get the petition numbers what stops them from trying next year or the next?

Exactly. You know those players love playing in those jerseys and helmets. You know they love being "cutting edge." Those helmets really are probably the sweetest I have seen....would have been a badass "sioux" helmet.
