  1. Saturday night after Gopher's lose to Union:
  2. Thursday night Gopher Hockey Riot after they beat the Sioux: http://www.youtube.c...pM8_smljZ4#t=12 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3i-3o69aChE
  3. Clearly, when it comes to Rioting, we are clearly lagging behind the Gophers: 2002 Gopher Hockey Riot: I believe they have a Rioting 101 class at the University of Minnesota for the beginning rioter. For the more experienced UorM rioting student, advanced degrees are available. You can sign up for the 400 level class - Rioting Boot Camp. That's where you get into jumping on police cars, setting cars on fire, breaking windows and destroying businesses.
  4. Brad's not too chicken to put his name after everything he writes though.....unlike some people.
  5. I have my doubts that happened. Several years ago I had the opportunity to stand down in the Sioux locker room with a good friend of mine who was a very good player back in the 70's. This former player had a son who was interested in playing at UND and I heard first hand how Eades stressed the importance of being part of the Sioux family and it was especially important as a legacy player. I was really impressed with the passion Eades had as he talked to this dad about how special it would be for this kid to follow in his dad's legacy. The kid didn't end up coming to UND but it certainly wasn't because of anything Eade's did or didn't do. One thing you have to remember is that, back in the day, Blaiser was the one that did the recruiting of Jim Archibald to UND and has remained close to them. That most likely had more to do with Archies kid ending up in Omaha than what is being implied here.
  6. His numbers are probably similar to what Craig Ludwig's were. I'd take that anytime.
  7. You need to take care of the idiot in post 2345 also.
  8. That's exactly the point: The NCAA FCS Championship means nothing except to fans in places like Fargo, Waterloo, Brookings, Huntsville, Cheney, Grand Forks, Bozeman, Vermillion, Normal, Youngstown, etc. The NCAA Hockey Championship means nothing except to fans in places like Boston, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Columbus, Ann Arbor, Grand Forks, Lansing, South Bend, University Park, Denver, West Point, Providence, etc. So, the exposure and media coverage that UND would get from a NCAA FCS National Championship vs a NCAA Hockey National Championship is quite different. The hockey championships are why we've seen very large front page stories in the Boston Globe, New York Times, Minneapolis StarTrib, Denver Post, Columbus Dispatch, Chicago Tribune, Wall Street Journal, Wisconsin State Journal & Detroit Free Press about the University of North Dakota. It will be great when UND wins a few FCS championships because then we'll get coverage in those smaller markets plus our continuing great coverage in the large markets.
  9. Please add your list of like-minded schools that were competing for your last two national championships.
  10. Bison in town.... Armed robbery at the local Valley Dairy.... Coincidence? http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/278972/
  11. Toews was the #3 pick overall and you think this kid is going to be a top 10 pick? There aren't too many kids snapped up in the first 10 that struggle in the BCHL.
  12. I don't care if it's common knowledge or not, no matter what the circumstance, I doubt you'd ever hear Dave Hakstol make a quote like Lucia did. Just another example of why players will skate through a cement wall for Hak and Lucia's players won't skate through a paper wall for him.
  13. I usually just go over to R.T. O'Sullivans in Mesa. It's typically packed with Sioux fans. But, if you're down in the San Tan Valley it will be a little farther for you. I'm only there during January and February so I don't bother getting a cable package.
  14. So, are you saying that Lutheran's can go about their business over the next couple of weeks and not worry about this?
  15. Now I'm impressed. You must know what you're talking about.
  16. That headline gave him an out. As long as the number of e-mails deleted was 44,999 or less, he can say he didn't do what he's being accused of.
  17. Oh OK. It's getting hard to keep the quotes straight. Does anyone know what might fall under these three categories? And, if the crime is committed during the football season does Bohl and Taylor have the option to "let the young men have their day in court before we take action"?
  18. Not so fast here. When the NDSU football team was involved in the last crime against all of North Dakota tax payers, didn't Bohl and Taylor dismiss it as "at least it's not a rape or drug crime". So, while you say this is unacceptable, it might be fine with the NDSU administration. Now, if someone had died as a result of this aggravated assault, then they might have considered adding a 3rd item to the unacceptable list, but we don't know that yet.
  19. Don't be so sure. Didn't some of them even misspell their own names when they were forging petitions?
  20. Thought I'd take a few minutes today to check North Dakota's four major cities for any news on UND and NDSU. Couldn't find any news on UND coming out of Minot. This is what I found on UND: http://www.grandfork...icle/id/264598/ http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/401308/ http://bismarcktribu...19bb2963f4.html This is what I found on NDSU: http://www.grandfork...group/homepage/ http://www.inforum.c...icle/id/401348/ http://bismarcktribu...19bb2963f4.html http://www.minotdail...e.html?nav=5583
