Weren't there elections last month at Standing Rock. Perhaps there has been a change in the council that is more supportive of the population and he isn't liking that fact??? I agree with The Sicatoka, the fact that Standing Rock and Spirit Lake have to put up or shut up will be interesting to watch. It's like someone who is running for office and they are continually tearing down their opponent. They finally win the election and say "now what do I do", only this is worse because not only can it cost you your personal prestige it can also cost the people of Standing Rock and Spirit Lake in the long run. A weight has just been put on Ron His Horse is Thunder. He won't sleep well tonight. I'm placing the odds on getting approval at 50/50. If it doesn't happen, we move on. If that happens, the real losers in the situation are going to be the people of Standing Rock and Spirit Lake and they can look within for blame.

From Article 2.c. Does anyone know what means are allowed in the Tribe's constitution? Is it possible that the AG office knows of a means to obtain approval from both Spirit Lake and Standing Rock of which we are not aware?

I think some folks at UND have some work to do in the next 3 years. Go Sioux !!!

State board approves nickname settlement

I've shown the clip of this goal to a number of people, some that know nothing about hockey and they have all marveled. One thing that hit me while watching it for the 10th time is how Toews handled himself. He celebrated with his teammates at the board, skated over and sat on the bench. If this had been an NFL game and some rookie running back had scored a touchdown of beauty, he likely would have been taunting the other team or doing some other "me me me" antics. Gotta love hockey!

NDUS meetings are typically held on Thursdays according to the meeting schedule. They probably moved this meeting from Thursday to Friday for October to accommodate this issue.

I wonder if Judge Jahnke didn't tell the NCAA that they better get this thing settled or he would reconsider the document sealing motion. It seems as though this happened very quickly after he denied the request that they be opened.

They got one black eye today with the presidential search committee article. They would be yelling for Mick to cut their eyes open (ala Rocky) if they caved now.

Forum editoriarl: N.D. open records law must apply

U policy on UND mascot stands I guess I will never understand how UND is trivializing American Indian history. If anything it brings it more to the forefront and when done with respect, which is what UND does, can porivde a deeper understanding of the history of the Sioux in North Dakota.

Very sad.

Judge errs in sealing Sioux files First they point out that he is wrong and then they go out and try to dig up some dirt on Judge Jahnke. Judge’s Sioux ties run deep I wonder what would have been printed had Judge Jahnke opened the records.

UND, NCAA meet in court Predictions??

I don't hunt either. I'm just going by posts from UND fans that are hunters who say that the attendance would be be better if the Sioux played more night football games. Hockey for instance doesn't seem to have attendance problems during hunting season.

Toews' circus goal puts NHL back on ESPN radar Beautiful goal!!! Wow! YouTube of Insane Jonathan Toews Goal

I know that hunting has a significant impact on day games, but does it also impact night games?

Perhaps UND should find a way to expand the Alerus after all and keep the "fair weather fans inside". SDSU had there first conference home game of the season yesterday and only had an attendance of 6500 vs Caly Poly. Was it a bad weather day in South Dakota yesterday?
