If we could finally announce we are building an indoor practice facility, that would be the biggest thing to help land recruits.

Bradley pulls away in the final minutes as teams with "more depth" usually do. The Sioux were resilient, down by nine at halftime, and eventually taking the lead, but in the end. The Sioux lose by nine:78-69 I can't wait til Wednesday. Montana at the Betty on National TV(FCS).

Give the Sioux a conference and a postseason bid and this team will be pretty darn good. Thank god for the Betty. Lets start a fund-raising campaign to get video boards in the betty.

bradley pulling away. two minutes left up ten.

It's all "huff this and huff that." He seems to be everywhere. But its a team game. 7:05 left 55-54 bradley.

Congrats ladies. Dominate the Big Sky and NCAA tourny next years!

47-47 anyone else listening. Come on sioux fans. Massey gave us 16% to win this game. Either way good showing by the Sioux. Lets get out and support our Sioux at home vs Montana. Sioux lead 49-48!

No. Decade.

44-43 Let's go boys!!!!!!!!!!

Football and Volleyball win the Great West. Great day to be a Sioux fan. Lets end the day with a basketball and hockey win. Sioux tied at 18.

Boy oh Boy. I just came in from outside (GF). Its 10 degrees. The "feels like" (weather.com term) is currently -8. High of 21. So glad for indoor football today!

-- This has so many contradictions I feel "more stupider" for having tried figuring it out. Its a toilet bowl....but it was great. No one cares if we win....but it brings in recruits and fans.

I thought ya all would like that. She use to religiously record "Knots Landing" back in the day. She is getting the complete first season on DVD....ssshhh. Don't tell her.

I was under the impression that was legal? He's recording tv shows/sports events. If I tape Days of Our Lives and I trade it for a Sioux hockey game tape with my mom, we are breaking the law?

When they announced their transition, checking out NKU on wiki, it seemed like a perfect DI fit. Nice on campus arena, no football, Kentucky loves basketball, good student population. The Summit will have a good pickup. The Savior.

Three days later it seems the Herald did an article on my post: Confident retailers, eateries flock to Grand Forks

Sandusky was interviewed on Rock 30. Hard to listen to. Asked if he was sexually attracted to young boys. He beat around the "bush" and then....finally...said no. Morning talk show hosts really ripping into Penn State saying they need to shut the athletic programs down for a year.

I completely agree. While taxes are an essential part of a modern society, it never made sense to me to have to "rent" your house from the government. There ain't one place you can live "free" in America. Closest thing I could think of is living on a frozen lake, but you have to pay the government for an ice shelter tag.

Am I the only one that gets creeped out looking at your avatar?

Its like anything you build. The condos next to the Memory Care center (old batting cages). Menards strip mall. The Strip Mall across from Golden Corral. Been built for years and still not full. Yes they had high asking prices in the beginning. But it is starting to fill in now. I was there not long ago painting. The secret is they aren't finished. They have show units, and then finish your unit to your specs as you buy it. Third floor: golf side: probably the nicest view in GF. Grand Forks only "lake" view.

I could on and on. While doing the Country Inn and Suites few years back, they were talking about building another hotel next door. The Kings Walk Condos, opened last winter, and if a few more units get sold are suppose to build another. Whether or not these come to fruition might be a different story.

Lets not forget the new Wellness Center, an Altru building going by it. The Aurora hospital being bought by Indianans and suppose to open soon. Its been finished inside for awhile, but many change orders. Fellow told me Hugos paid a hefty sum to buy land next to the Wellness. It's crazy with all the construction but GFs growth still seems to be last (among the big four).

It seems the largest thing going for Grand Forks is the strong Canadian dollar, there are many new restaurants that have been built/open in GF: Old Leevers getting a Japanese steak and seafood, Ruby Tuesdays, Pizza Ranch, Olive Garden, Five Guys, JL Beers. I am sure I am missing some. Only restaurants I can think to close down were Whiteys and Applebees (EGF). With Whiteys already reopen and Applebees becoming a Drunken Noodle soon (Fargo company). GF just had its largest ever sales tax collection (month or quarter). With such low unemployment (some going to the oil fields) you are seeing some wages increase: Radio ad for cooks at the new Ruby Tuesdays start at $14. Riddles Jewelry also opened next door. Remodeled half the Cirrus plant to turn it into the new expanded Amazon. I think they were looking to hire 200 or so when the project was completed in the summer. All the drywall companies seem to stay busy, which is a rare other places in the country (so I hear). I know some Fargo companies were coming to GF bidding on the new house construction (http://www.jmhomesinc.com/). The hotel next to the Alerus is about to open. There is another one planned across the street for next year. Two 36 plex apartments going up by the Columbia Mall, 9 plex being built by clear channel downtown, another apartment is going up next to the newly constructed one that was just finished where the old civic was. The bad part is new homes are really only being built in one area of town; area just North of South Middle school, as all the land in South GF is mainly monopolized by the Useldinger Family. Short answer yes its strong.

The crappiest $3.6 Million house in the country? http://www.realtor.c...0996?source=web I do drywall and painting for a living. I know on some of those message boards, many drywallers have pondered the thought of moving out to the area for work, myself included. But the housing situation is definitely a deterrent to many. I wanna get my slice of the pie. I have gotten a few calls from construction companies in the oil fields. "You wanna submit a bid for a Hotel we are building in Tioga?"

You mean apartment? If she bought a house she wouldn't have been in the predicament.
