Shatel: Mavericks' move up is smart but bittersweet Truer words have never been spoken.

The long term gains are much greater than the short term "problems."

The gophers problem is they are so arragant they believe they can be competitive with just players from one state. Groupthink sets in. Thank gosh the Sioux go after the best players in the world no matter where they are from.

I believe this team (Fighting Sioux) was picked to finish last in the Great West. Good Job Team.

How much money does UMD, Duluth, Mankato, Bemidji make off there games. And how are they able to afford a penalty clock?

And how much would it cost? $1,000,000,000?

That's so cute. Your publically stating how you don't like this place. haha You are a good sioux fan haha. That is the post of the year. All because the law says UND can't change its name. hahaha.

Darell please stop pulling sh*t out your azz. The only thing that will happen if they don't comply is no home football playoff game.

The only home playoff game EVER. Would be football. Much rather by fighing sioux than having to host a playoff football game every five years.

HAHA you clearly have a chip on your shoulder. I know it sucks being in the Summit and all, but we both know even Bison fans admit the atmosphere sucks at Summit Tournament, especially without the Bizon there. I will take atmosphere over neutrality any day of the week. Makes excellent TV on ESPN2.

What do you think? What would you do?

MODERATOR EDIT: I SPLIT THESE POSTS OUT OF THE DI RECLASSIFICATION THREAD AS THEY FIT BETTER HERE......... I am very happy we are in the Big Sky vs the Summit. Watching the Mens Big Sky Championship on ESPN2 has crazy atmosophere (UNC vs Montana) cause the top seed hosts. Sioux Falls hosts the Mens Summit tournament. While it has SDSU close by, the atmosphere is no where near as good as on campus sites. And without SDSU or USD even worse atmosophere. Word on the street is this years Summit tournament was pretty vanilla. Kudos to you Big Sky.

LM Wind Power (new name) does seem to be doing well. But they did just lay off 150 workers at the Grand Forks plant. Being the worlds largest maker of wind turbine blades, I would think they will recover. Especially with what seems to be a trend lately to "Go Green" and the countries emphasis on renewable resources (energy). On the other note. USA has a long way to go before we see more wind farms. ND should have 88 wind farms by now.

Yeah sorry. I ain't a blogger, I just post what I remember what I read a while back. It appears it has changed since then. Just noticed Jim gave me props six year ago.

I am not so sure it will be voted on Monday. From the Fargo Forum:

66,000 x 17% = 11,200 The base only lost 3,000 people in ten years. Grand Forks County is still missing 9,000 people it could/should have when compared to other regional cities, especially Bismarck, that for whatever reason. Bismarck was below GF in population not that long ago and now will be double the size of Grand Forks relatively soon.

Sorry to bring up an old thread. Cirrus expands. Lays off bunch of people recently down to 75 workers. Owes the city $850,000 in back rent. Last month Cirrus was sold to a Chinese Company.

Whats up Grand Forks County? Ten years and it gains 200 people! Newspaper article

Game flow and Fan Satisfaction charts look sweet.

Great West Conference attendance (per their website) Utah Valley 2013 North Dakota 1626 South Dakota 1454 Chicago St 1179 Texas PA 672 Houston Baptist 668 NJIT 455

Massey Ratings have the Lady Sioux the seventh best team in the country right now ahead of BC.

That's your argument? This pops into my head from Billy Madison: RPI would indicate they are ranked 213 and 231. Which is better than W Illinois. Which is all UND92,96 was saying.

They try to avoid conference matchups, but it could happen. It would be sweet and easy to beat the gophers again.

I could have told you that. Where can we get sioux jerseys after next year?
