on KVLY TV 11 news at Ten o' clock on September 27 Yvonne Man stated: Which basically backs up this statement: Play it safe and say NDSU now only needs another 20 Million dollars. And with all those tuition wavers going on at NDSU I don't think they have a lot of money floating around I was suprised to learn that $10 Million gift was the largest ever to NDSU.

So basically they had a announcement to say they raised about a third of the price of a renovated arena? As the days go by it appears Star2City will be right and UND will breakground before NDSU. I heard only silver urinals but with mini lcd tvs built into the walls above each urinal to never miss a moment of the action.

Anyone that thinks we are on the same playing field as DIA (FBS) would be factually wrong. I'm not secure with our IAA (FCS) status. I want IA and with the new 25,000 retractable roof stadium the goal will be close.

Sorry Dave. Its a fact. Five Division I football teams. One Division IA. Four Division IAA. And by basic elementary reading comprehension its easy to see those add up to five Division I football teams. As the other guys said: its simply facts, but go ahead and argue with those.

his top ten

21-13 Bison. I'd rather the Sioux go into the Dakota Dome after having the Coyotes win their previous game.

Bring on the Fighting Calvary!

It's just one of many reasons. Not the main reason. I was just pointing out the facts. Lobbyists run the world. You should know that. Not just oil ones. But I'll explain one for you: In California, where smog is a major problem, electric cars started catching on. Cities even started to build "Charging Stations." (Does that show their was a demand?) But the oil industry funded consumer organizations to stop them. The oil industry also paid for editorials in national publications (Time, Newsweek, etc) essentially trying to sway public opinion (including factually inaccurate ones: Environmental benefits of electric cars are dubious). Companies want to protect their profits; its only natural. Or as I simply stated previously to generate this long post: A company isn't going to start to make and sell (or try and educate and advertise) less profitable Electric Vehicles (they want to sell trucks - GM bought Hummer) unless it has too. And if no car company is really making any electric vehicle. No worries. GM, Honda, etc told people to return their electric cars they had leased and destroyed them some ten years ago. I'll spare you the history of how Hybrids started take hold on the marketplace (How that "demand" was created). If nobody wants to buy them why is there a rush to make electric vehicles all of a sudden (by Ford and GM) again? Where are you getting this stuff? Aren't economically viable? I see all electric cars being driven in Grand Forks. I'm still waiting for Hydrogen.

I know we don't like Bison Boys but lets not that cloud our judgement. I am not saying the world is going to change any time soon but, Electric cars have been around a long time. Way before the Volt. And what has killed them? Its not just that technology hasn't been there. Its about money and politics as we know and the oil industry has a lot of it to throw around to protect their product. To says this is pretty preposterous. Right now there is an all electric car on the road in the USA that goes more than 200+ miles per charge which is equivalent to 120 miles per gallon. Oh yeah and did I mention it goes from zero to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds faster than Porsches and Ferraris! *I understand there is limitations.

The Volt is definately not a game changer. But Tesla Motors is. If you want one you will have to join the waiting list.

That's cause he is a bisonville regular.

The wheels are starting to turn, but will they fall off? Its a good day when The Hockey News is talking about it.

This team don't see individually.

Does anyone know how/when/where this cheer started? I love it cause other teams hate it. Great hearing it in throughout St Paul after winning the Final Five.

Well put this on the list of threads that have gotten high jacked.

1) Not a head shot (Contact to the Head). 2) Not a dirty play. Illegal yes. 3) Frattin far from a Goon.

Um another easy one make at least the slightest attempt to play the puck. Or wait to hit Wehrs once he actually has "posession" of the puck. Your right it was a race to the puck. Problem was one player wasn't racing to the puck (Fratts). The other was. It was essentially a tie with Wehrs stopping just before he touched it (or right after barely touching it) after he noticed Frattin wasn't attempting to play the puck. Thus him lowering his body embracing for a huge hit. And hence a Charge was called. Especially given the distance Fratts traveled not even looking where the puck was. If you are arguing that wasn't a charging penalty I would dare to call you a non smart hockey fan. Please educate yourself. Thanks for proving my point. You can't "get to the puck" first and not play the puck but instead play the man. That makes no sense. You have competing forces here. Again you can't "box out" a hockey player. That is another penalty. Its called Interference. You proved yourself not worthy of anymore of my time.

Charging: Seems pretty textbook call to me. And hard to argue via the "NHL rulebook" (I know its not the WCHA rulebook).

Come on. This ones easy. Any one can see Fratts had absolutely no intention of playing the puck. Homer or not its easy to see that from the beginning. Its probably just a reality of (WCHA) hockey now. If a player gets injured a game suspension will probably follow.

To each their own but I love seeing UC Davis at the Alerus Center.

Please ignore the troll.

Can someone help me out with this? I know it costs more in tuition for someone out of state to go to a university versus a state they reside in. But does "real costs" change? Who does the U of Montana have to pay for these scholarships? Itself? Their Higher Ed board? Who then in return give them the money back? Does it costs the university more for that out of state kid to sit in on a lecturer? Does he have a higher heating bill in his dorm cause he's from the south? How would you really be "saving money"? (in a non enron accounting sense)

Let's just hope the SBoHE isn't stupid enough to drop the name now after all the work that has been done and how close UND might be to keeping it. *especially now that they don't need to drop it for a sports conference.

Bring on the Gophers! Ending their season would be the great! Heck say UND losses. Skipping the Final Five, getting rested, and soaking in the losses, could even help the team. Just like Denver a few years ago when they missed the Final Five and won a Championship.

Yes but only cause UND will win tonight also.
