Letter of the day: Nick Coleman should give UND a rest

No more war dances for Native American mascot The battle isn't over yet.

I don't think that sobered yet up he.

I thought that the main thrust of the article was the UND is being immature in Stu's mind, because the name hasn't been changed yet. Everyone else is changing, why haven't you type of mentality. He spent very little time discussing the name being detrimental to the move to D-I other than saying UND would lose out on some $$ from the Big 10 schools refusing to play UND in sports other than hockey. I liked Sica's post. A columnist in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Classic.

Time for UND to drop its nickname Is there a logo that is cartoon-like that UND is using? Does Stu know who designed the new logo? Research and truth are lost with today's media. Instead of taking this common fallacy at face value, do some research and find out that Sioux=snake is not true.

I thought this was a hockey only arena.

Blais to coach USHL team in new Fargo arena

You're right my wrestling coach didn't know how to train hockey players. He barely knew wrestling, but he did know how to train people to get the most out of them and when you got down to the end of the match you weren't the one sucking wind. Your opponent was. Your original post talked about players getting stronger and faster and weight training and that is what I was responding to. What you are talking about now is skills training. You don't think that tennis players, soccer player, football players ... have skills training? When you talk about high school coaches teaching skills, I would think that there are a couple of pretty coaches at RR in Malm and Chase that know how to teach skills. Nothing beats hard work though. Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan are a couple of good examples that had skill, but their work ethic and training made them great.

Pretty cool. I would think that this would generate more interest in the non-revenue sports. Thanks SiouxMD.

And the discussion goes on .... Any Given Saturday

Back in the late 70's when I was in 9th grade we had a wrestling coach that had us lifting weights every day before school and running every day after school. He once equated wealth to laziness and that the kids at Schroeder were going to be the least conditioned and that the kids at Valley should be the most conditioned. I was at South, so were kind of in the middle. When we had the city championships that year, we came in as underdogs, but I won my weight class and South won the overall city championship, not because we were the most skilled, it had to do with conditioning. If it was all about skill, I would have gotten my butt kicked, because I was only in my second year of wrestling and the guy I faced in the championship was considered the best in that weight class. Money had nothing to do with it. You do need someone, a coach or trainer, to push you if you don't already have it inside of you.

I believe that it's on this morning.

I thought you understoond that logic has nothing to do with this issue.

Qwest Communications Reveals Deal With University Of North Dakota - Stock To Watch There must be more to the story. "Reveals Deal"??

Nick Coleman: Illinois shows North Dakota what is the truly honorable thing Maybe someone should tell Nick what the definition of caricature is... I don't believe the Sioux logo distorts anything.

Just for fun. UND still has opening Comments I think the general consensus is that they want the nickel, although none of them wanted it when they started their "new rivalry" with SDSU.

With all of the scheduling problems that NDSU had the first couple of years in the transition did football attendance go up or down? 2003 11,567 2004 13,269 2005 14,160 Hmmm, So why are you so sure that 2008 will be a lean year for UND? Could it be because you just plain hate UND and a lean year is what you want for UND?

And I believe that the attendance will increase.

Thanks SiouxMD. I saw we were up by 9, but was on bath duty and missed the end.

Sioux up by 8 with 2:43 to go.

About 8 minutes left and the Sioux are up by 3. USD seems to be outhustling the Sioux.
