I'm sure UND has a wonderful Philosophy department, but don't try to argue intelligently about this one. Especially you Diggler. Whether you have 8 fingers and two sore thumbs and a head up your ass is true or not is irrelevant, because the joke's still on you when you live in the god-forsaken state of North Dakota.
It was a joke...a little pre-game razzing...and that's all it will ever be. Take it for what its worth...but the little joke becomes infinitely more humorous when you North Dakotans get all uppity and high-strung about it. I'm sure Neal Broten is disappointed because I'm being a "bad Goofer fan" (clever...really), I'm sure there are countless unfunny things about my joke...but damn is it funny to watch you losers squirm because someone tickled you just right. It's a hockey game dorks...log off and go play it.
