Like I said, politics aside.

My vote is for 2. I've been in that situation and see that is where you are.

You are only fueling my wife's argument that I spend waaaay to much time at this site.

Keeping politics aside, it is quite noteworthy that UND will have Janet Napolitano, US Secretary of Homeland Security, give the commencement address this spring. With all of the work UND is doing with Unmaned Aerial Vehicles, it wise to bring in someone who may be instrumental in helping UND in that capacity. Additionally, I know that there is also a push by Conrad to have GFAFB as the home for two squadrons of the MC-12 surveillance aircraft. Maybe a collaborative effort going on here.

There are lot of comments being written, from both sides of the issue, on the Bismarck Tribune website in referenced to a recent article. I haven't had a chance to read through them all, but it is interesting reading the different perspectives. Fighting Sioux nickname supporter says 'it's not over'

Because paragraph 2.a. of the settlement with the NCAA says it is magical.

Considering UND is not yet in a conference, I think the numbers are exceptional.

From the press release it sounds like Murray is back in form. Murray/Sutton should make a nice 1-2 punch. Hopefully the Sioux have a passing game to match. Should be a fun season.

Repercussions of a nickname

Education Department Rescinds 2005 Title IX Change

Poll results from Jamestown Sun... I'm buying stock in Orville Redenbacher. I'm not sure we have reached intermission yet.

My eyes are watering.

I think you showed a pretty good example in your post. America used to allow someone to speak their mind without a thinly veiled accusation of racism. JFR's post said nothing about the president. Since Siouxsports is supposed to be free of politics, I will leave it at that.

You asked a question, "what was Taylor supposed to say?". I gave you an answer. During last Friday's Q&A, Faison said that games have been scheduled. Over the weekend we learn that in MBB the two teams are playing each other in 2010. So was Faison lying? Perhaps he could have said "tentatively scheduled to make you happy, but then the next question would have been "tentatively, what's holding it up?" Then Faison would have to say Taylor hasn't signed the contracts yet.

This is somewhat troubling....

"We have an agreement in principle, but we don't yet have signed contracts".

Not really a story on the Sioux name, but mentioned inaccurately in this story..... Evidently the Wisconsin High Schools may be required to change their names.. PC run amok.

Jacks tab UND for last 2010 opening So if scheduling the Sioux works well for a 5th home game, it's okay. What a load of manure. If the Fighting Sioux name stays, are we going to hear complaining from Brookings?

FromQ&A chat with Dan Hammer Brian Faison: The buyout is $100,000.

North Dakota should keep Sioux nickname
