I see that now. I replied to that before reading the rest of the thread. As apparently my post and your admitted mistake were posted at the same time.

The rubbing is because you tried to defend it. Saying it wasn't a stupid question and/or preposterous.

It is preposterious because it can't happen. You are showing you don't know how college sports works. UND has to sponsor a certain number of sports to even offer hockey at UND. So why bring up something that could NEVER EVER happen at UND? It's like saying UND should move its hockey team to the NHL. I really thought you were smarter than that.

....Sioux Sports thread in history.

This is the world Fetch lives in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI

You realize Al is one man and can't pass laws. It has the support of the legislation and the governor signed it! The continued rip on Al for simply bringing the idea up is old. Everyone that voted for it is just as much to blame including the governor.

If travel was the issue why did they vote UND in? The nickname is retired. What is there to give them ammo about?

They added UND hoping to push Sac St out.

Drop all sports except hockey because UND won't win the BCS? WOW. Even if UND wanted to they couldn't.

Sioux socks, shirt, and hoodie....Mom always knows the best way to my heart.

Harvard has a historic badass stadium for FCS.

Doubt it. Do you think a LSU or Alabama could beat a really crappy NFL team? I think they might be able to....Crazy things happen in sports...Didn't the Sioux lose to a U20 team? Yeah by two goals.

Now I am even more jealous of NDSU. I didn't know, even they, have a "real scoreboard." One that can show replays. *Edit. After a little research Is there any doubt if UND didn't have hockey.....basketball would get more attention from Sioux fans? Fans might be more demanding of basic upgrades....

Since this game is played at Ralph Engelstad Arena. How sweet would that basketball arena be. It if was made for basketball.

The same Verizon Center where the Washington Wizards play...the one that has "Verizon Center" on the hardwood? REA also has its name on the floor.

NDSU lost by four tonight to the Gophers.

That's right! Canada usually produces better talent that Minnesota. But I guess it has a lot more people too.

So you make idiotic statements about the whole year based on your friends one series of sioux hockey? You realize Sioux vs Gophers is the biggest things in North Dakota and Hakstol has WAY to many requests from the media to fulfil that night?

Exactly.... our Bisonville friend basically said Hakstol made no comments to the media after a loss...his major fail......I have literally watched him do numeorus interviews after a loss on UNDsports.com...........................

What's with all the TV ads then?

Maybe I am wrong, but I doubt the contract with Alerus Financial makes the Alerus Center put the logos in the turf. My point being, even if it didn't have a corporate naming sponsor, like the Fargodome, you would probably still see "Aurora Center" on the turf....like the Fargdome does now.

Yes, the upgrades for Sioux football in the Alerus are definitely nice. The Murals, The banners, The thingy majiggy that runs around the field on the stands. I just wish they would do more significant renovations to the building. Windows on the West side to match the east...and maybe the south end zone....tile the floor so its not painted concrete....Sheetrock of the "tin." add a "club lounge." I love the outside...they did a heck of a job on the glass facade for the converence center entrance. Two thumbs up! Bison fans like to say attendance is bad cause of the BSA. Could it be the same for the Alerus Center? Don't get me wrong I love the Alerus and am glad its built...I just wanted MORE money spent on it. And wih the first class Canad Inn attached to it (and it becoming a center piece for commercial development around it)...its time to truly make The Alerus a destination.

The Fargodome does. And I assume others do to.

Exactly. The Alerus Center wants to get their name and brand out their just like UND football does, especially on TV.

This shows you have no ideal what you are talking about. The coach has given numerous interviews after a loss. Are you really that stupid?
