I believe the song was "I'm Gonna Do My Thing" by Royal Deluxe

I Want It All. (throwback to 2000)

Quite frankly, if we do change the name, I think the Sioux people should have 0 input on what we change the name to. They got their wish and that's that.

On Saturday, Oct 8th, I attended a performance by the Beatles tribute band "Rain" held at the FargoDome. Prior to the performance the guy who seemed to have spearheaded the concert made a few announcements. One announcement was to ask EVERYONE to e-mail the forum telling them that they were akin to a joke as the forum refused to give any coverage to the event - pre and post comments (there was more he said but I tuned it out - whatever, it the forum decided to not cover it, that's their decision) . . . anyway the group behind me was from one of the local F/M libraries (he gave a "shout out" of thanks to various groups and stations which did mention/support the concert - one of the groups mentioned was the group of librarians and these women/men cheered for themselves, which is why I knew they were from the library). One in the group of the librarians stated in reference to the forum "That rag; nobody I know reads it." There was agreement from others in the group. Thought that was a pretty interesting statement from a librarian no less.

Here's another vote for GK to explain why warrior (ie: http://www.srcs.k12.nd.us/ ) , Sioux and/or Indians are/is acceptable in some situations but not in others.

We received the renewal in today's mail (po box in gf) -- our FSC membership was billed at the same rate as last year -- -- cost of 2 hockey tickets was $640 with the additional 2 hockey seats listed at $480. That is the same as last year, right?

Some radio announcers were discussing the seating issue -- just general banter -- one question was that if the the students receive the south-end seating section, then would the alumni assoc. (box) consent to being moved/(swap suites) to that south-end should one of the current south-end suite holder(s) not want to be by the students --

Here's an outtake from another ND/Red River Valley raised boy -- in his book he's come to terms with what ND/RRV offers . . . . if Josh had had a chance to read this guy's book maybe he, Josh, would have had a better perspective on ND/RRV http://www.thescreamonline.com/essays/essays3-1/dakota.html outtake from "Dakota Boy" by Rob Woutat (PCM great letter, Air Force One be careful out there)

Sultry Strumpets That's assuming that that establishment is what I'm thinking it is . . . . .

Thanks for the effort, the success, and the smiles! And Jake, those great one liners: "**** where are you going!?!?!" "**********, you stiff." Two classics, among many, caught by the on ice microphone this past weekend.

Whoops! So sorry should have included the thanks to our sudo reporter too! On a side note if I had a Sioux jersey and had the name "Mapletoft" on the back would I get too many blank looks?

Thanks Federov for starting this thread -- For me this website and the posters offer the 2 things every Sioux fan needs: information and humor! A big "thank you" to all the posters; the variety (pre-80's people thru the current students, Sioux fans, Bison/GVS/Bulldogs/Gophers/etc. fans, parents) adds value to the Sioux fan experience. Every time I see or hear Mapletoft, I can't help but smile.

PCM thanks for the recap -- (blatant bump) (It's too bad THommersy didn't have a chance to interview Eddie the Eagle.) Go Sioux.

Quinn will have pulled on the Sioux sweater, listened to the national anthem while on the ice prior to the game, skated thru a hand shake line, been cheered on by Sioux fans, more than any other Sioux player (except LD) . . . he's been asked thru the years to "perform" his role (ie. go to the USHL) and obviously he's done that well -- you don't play in 167 Sioux games as a "one" shift player . . . . Again, Congrats and Thanks Quinn.
