The athletes you are cheering for are Fighting Hawks. Very soon, none of the UND athletes will have ever played under the name Fighting Sioux. Their identity will be the Fighting Hawks. You can choose to support whatever you want. But as for me, I am going to cheer for the Fighting Hawks because that is the identity of the team, the players, and the school that is playing. It will change for you, like you said, eventually. Same goes for other fans. whether it is a day, a month, a year, or longer. but jsut remember that delaying the process isn't going to change the result. The sooner you accept the new name and eventual logo, the better off you will be. It is going to happen eventually. Might as well make the effort to make it sooner.
No, they are University of North Dakota student athletes. And that is how I will cheer on and support them.

I know Siouxperfan7 personally and I know this man is a passionate and loyal supporter of all things UND. So please don't question his loyalty or commitment to our programs.
Haha, really? You his big brother?
So why is it okay for him to question the loyalty or commitment of fans who acknowledge that F'n Hawks is a horrible, generic junior high nickname?

Look south...is a Bison, by today's standards which is not much different than a domesticated cow and that the fan base doesn't even pronounce the name right, a good nickname?
Yes, it is a very good nickname.

I say that you go for a UND/NoDak/North Dakota name theme.

Big series against the undefeated Badgers going on at the Ralph.
The ladies are up 2-0 at the second intermission.

The current structure...
Look up the meaning of the word current. Then look up the meaning of the word future. See if the two words mean the same thing.
That might help you better understand what SV is trying to explain to you. But probably not.

UND will protect the "hawks nest"
No, just no.
The hawk nickname is horrible enough itself. We don't need to start adding other stupid nicknames like this.
-
#15 in the country and #5 in the country, not that much difference.
Bwahahaha! Let's run with it guys!

If it makes you fell better the Bison are losing by 2 with 11 minutes left tonight too...
Can I find that game on Me TV?

Hey, a nail-biter game like this should really get the fans excited and bring them back for future games. It's really what this program needs right now!
And honestly, I just cringe every time an announcer or media member says Fighting Hawks.

Yeah, I have a history of histrionics (tongue twister for you there) on this forum. But I also believe in optimism when it is called for and I think this is a situation where things are more good than bad.
Just giving ya some crap!

I think everyone is up in arms about little or nothing.
I literally fell on the floor laughing when I saw who posted this! But you are right, if only we could all be as calm and level headed while posting as you are!!!

I guess for me when I am chanting "Husky Women" I am doing it in support of all ladies who have triumphantly defeated anorexia!
-
I'm not saying, "be nice to them." Treating (or insulting) women based on performance/merit rather than looks starts only when men stand up for it.
If she is husky isn't that a reflection of her performance/merit at the fitness center?!?

Did we get robbed? We sure did. But we left our car running with the doors unlocked in a bad neighborhood. What did you expect? I felt good about the win last night but because it was not unanimous that we would get in i remained nervous. Now we know why.
A better example would be that UND left their Chevy Corvette running with the doors unlocked in a bad neighborhood. WIU and EIU pull up and park their Chevy Malibus. A group of thugs runs up, jumps in the Malibus and speeds off. All of the eye witnesses in the area just can't figure out why the f'hawk those idiots decided to take the Malibus over the other, nicer vehicles also available.

Hey, at least it wasn't saying UND Bison.
NDSU Bison
Dickinson State Blue Hawks
Miami University Red Hawks
12 in one hand, a dozen in the other. We have about as generic a name as we can possibly get. So what does it matter what school we are mistaken for?

Check out @UNDSID's Tweet: https://twitter.com/UNDSID/status/668094589664784384?s=09
I'm just impressed that the UND SID twitter account actually tweeted something about UND and not some MLB crap. I don't think that my lack of confidence in any person sitting in an office at UND could get much lower right now.

They were picked dead last in the MAC. For this to be an "upset" shows are low the bar is set for this program.
Hey, as long as they beat the spread. A W isn't important.

This is a pay day game for UND not a barometer for the season...
Does anyone know what we actually got paid to go play in the Kohl Center?
$500 and a 3 pack of Nike socks?

Still trying to sell what was NEVER and DID NOT win! Give it up!
You sure freak out anytime Roughriders is brought up and get extremely defensive about any perceived slight against the F'hawking nickname.
But heaven forbid other people have opinions & feelings about the nickname ordeal.

And it was nice of Heather to make her little joke about hating UND fans. But I don't blame her. Her ticket stunt obviously didn't work to keep NoDak fans away. Sure looks and sounds like they outnumber the home team's fans.

So I Guess Fighting Hawks It Is
in UND Nickname

Oh come on! We can use pictures of a hawk flying with a dead muskrat and just pretend it's a gopher.
