  1. That was going to be fun to watch. Lammy is ripped! He would have done a number.
  2. This team doesn't make the extra pass to hit the open man. Instead opting to shoot.
  3. Same. It said ten minutes more like ten seconds before the game.
  4. Anyone watching the webcast yet?
  5. Did I miss them or is there no renderings of the new stadium? While the DykeHouse is nice. Its something they were missing for years. As I think the players didn't even have locker rooms at "the stadium" before that. Or it was like a trailer behind the seats?
  6. (if it happens) What small group of people get to decide the fate of this great university? What has history shown us at other universities changing their names? Any way for the people at UND to have the most powerful voice?
  7. Tickets wouldn't be tough to get for a Winter Classic. The tickets sold to a Winter Classic would draw a lot more general hockey fans who would rather watch UW. Not to mention there are more UW alum in the Metro than UND. Don't get me wrong. I would love to see an outdoor game in MPLS: Sioux vs Gophers
  8. Yet the population of the United States increased by 17% during that time period. Some would argue "no growth" is negative growth.
  9. You're welcome. Looks like there was already a newer topic on it at: http://forum.siouxsports.com/index.php?sho...&pid=290761
  10. Interesting to see how far we have come. Or not come for that matter. Still on the jlg architects website.
  11. Bulbs are one issue to think about. The average bulb lasts 3000 hours at low power, 2000 hours at full lamp power. Which is about 7 cents an hour or so.
  12. Picture quality up just as good as any lcd, but not as bright during the day time is about the only "issue" you can spend more money and get higher Lumens meaning an even brighter picture. That one is a Optima HD65. Type it into google and tons of reviews about it. It's one of the more popular projectors for that price range. And yes you need a screen to project it onto. Anything from a $5 4x8 painted white piece of drywall to $100 pull down screen.
  13. I own this. 720p. 1600 Lumens. DLP. I like it cause its portable and only $650. Its hard watching anything less than a 100" tv now
  14. (in my best Oprah voice) "You get free tuition, you get free tuition, you get free tuition." Come one. Come all. Text "NDSU" to 25000 and a $10 donation will be added to your phone bill to help bailout NDSU.
  15. Well that works out good cause Memorial Stadium already has a track around the football field just like UND's new indoor practice facility will.
  16. Can't they just "dome" Memorial Field? It seems like its already everything they want....not to mention seats and tradition.
  17. I think its a road win for the Sioux based on the title of the thread. Congrats Sioux.
  18. Maybe in the 80's? but that is not much money nowadays. There is quite a few houses sold in GF for $500,000. And that doesn't produce any revenue.
  19. There is no doubt that a Buffalo Wild Wings would be wildly successful at the current former Suite 49 location. Its not a coincidence that BWW is going to build a new location in Grand Forks. Anyone with half a brain knew that Suite 49 was probably going to fail. Lets see: you have a market of 11,000 students within walking distance and you don't cater to them. Instead you advertised yourself as being "upscale" aka I cost a lot of money to go here . Its hard for anything upscale to work in GF let alone on the NorthEnd next to a place where students want "cheap."
  20. Do you worry that once 51% of the population wants all guns banned that the other 49% will no matter because its what the majority wanted even though it was and has been their right all along? Maybe DC and other cities that have strict gun laws (NY & Chicago) can put it to a vote? What better way in a "democracy" than for the citizens to decide. After all if just one of those judges voted the other way guns would still be banned in DC and lead the way for other cities across the country and nation to start to ban guns (This happens so often when a new President appoints their Supreme Court Justices which broadly share their ideological views).
  21. Let's not forget that UND played a basketball game against Bemidji St at the Target Center in Minneapolis last year.
  22. Yes and no. I should have been more clear. It is against the law to discriminate mainly against certain groups/classes of people: race, color, religion or national original under the Federal Civil Rights Act and disabilities via Americans with Disabilities Act....after that its for the courts to decide. They then can refuse the right to serve people. Just have to come up with a "valid reason." A court held that it had the right to refuse service to a "motorcycle gang" because it was preventing fights against rival club members. Another case was a person with "poor hygiene." As in this case, it gets even more complicated when talking about a "nightclub" (or bar) because it caters to a specific clientele based on age/social status - hence the "bouncers" outside the clubs deciding who gets to go into the club. I almost didn't get into a downtown Minneapolis club once because of "something with myshoes." But was able to enter because of the people I was with.
  23. You're starting to get it. The truth is a Bar is not public. It is indeed a Private Business that is why it has the right to serve only people it wants it has the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason. Thanks to your new definition you are no longer against smoking in drinking establishments, just certain types. Gotcha ya ha Here's the slippery slope that many have mentioned that has started. You are okay with a private business that allows smoking. You say something with "members". The owners say members simply pay a cover charge every time they enter as many bars already do. This is how many businesses "get around laws." And the reason those laws shouldn't exist.
  24. No, not at all. You're not against driving and talking. Check. So technically what you are really against is holding anything while talking. Be it a phone to ear while talking, candybar to mouth while talking, soda pop to mouth while talking. You're against holding something to your ear while talking. It is still a distraction to have to dial that hands free (because you are no longer watching the road) and takes concentration to have that convo and that other hand can now legally put their makeup on while commuting to work in the morning.....does that make you any safer? Another Great Law!
