Do you mean he is not both?

It appears that winter has finally arrived in GF. I'm waiting, not anxiously, for that cold blast to work it's way down to the Gulf Coast. GF is cuurently at -17, while Pensacola is 59 degrees. That is a 76 degree difference. GF high for today is -8, while Pensacola is 70. I'm going to enjoy this while I can, because as I said it is going to plunge down south. I had a meeting over in Kiln MS this week, at which one of the people had come in from Denver. All of the Southerners were talking about hold cold it must be in Denver. The guy from Denver chimed in that Denver doesn't compare to Grand Forks, ND. Of course at that point I told him that I was from GF and we had a long conversation about North Dakota. Turns out we were both involved in the same project 17 years ago at GFAFB. Keep warm.

Thanks for use of the gif, PCM.

Dave the season is over. Florida won. Give it a rest. BTW, it wouldn't suprise me to see Florida back there again next year. Good coach. Good Kids. SPEED. Did you know that Florida is now the Divison I champ in both basketball and football. It has never happened before.

I haven't lived in GF since 1993, so I'm not sure about the coverage the local media is providing. On the away games are they currently showing the game highlights that same night? With advances in broadcasting and video streaming that will become reality. Star2City knows more about the media packages available with the Big Sky, but I believe that the Altitude Network has teamed up with the Big Sky in a television package. I would hope that the Herald would be sending a reporter with the team on road trips and with the technologies available today, I can see no reason why they can't get the story in the paper for the next morning, at the very least in the online version.

Nor would UND be proposing to spend $10M on an American Indian Center.

The Herald has picked up the story with Buning's comments added. UND NICKNAME: Brand: NCAA won't back down

While your time zone point is a valid one, I don't think the Twin Cities/Mid-Con connection is as strong an argument. Other than NDSU and SDSU the Mid-Con is in Shreveport, Kansas City, Rochester Hills MI, Tulsa, Cedar City UT, Macomb IL, Indianapolis and Fort Wayne IN. None of these cities are particularly close to MSP. I would think that UND would be attempting to schedule both SDSU and NDSU on an annual basis regardless of which conference the Sioux end up in. With the Big Sky, you would have UM and MSU next door. UNC is close to Denver, Flagstaff is about a 2 hour drive from Phoenix and all of the grads in the Seattle and Portland areas. Back to the time zone issue. With the internet, I think people rely far less on the nightly newscast and the morning paper. If and when all of the games are streamed, you will have less of a time zone issue.

As discussed previously and pictorally with Wyobison's NDSU's alumni map, UND and NDSU have big pockets of fan support in AZ and CO, not to mention the Pacific NW. Plus one home for the "money" sports would be great. I think Swimming and Diving could become part of the Mid-Con or Horizon as an associate member. The big problem with the Big Sky insofar as a conference home for sports would be baseball and softball.

Don't mess with the New Orleans Saints colors.

If it is true that he would then bring it up on membership vote, then he must feel that he has the vote to do it. Why else would he say "It's done."? I have absolutely no legal experience, so I'll have to rely on those who do to explain Brand's comments. Additionally, aren't these kind of comments fodder for the lawsuit?

I simply cannot get past this one. Is he answerable to no one?

Brand: NCAA stands by nickname ban Someone said it earlier today. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. I also see in the article where the USA Today had us hosting a I-AA playoff game.

Congratulations to the Gators. Sorry Dave K.

Don't forget to set up your lucrative severance package, so you have a golden parachute should things go south down south.

Thanks for analysis Dagies. I'm looking forward to a great 2nd half of the season. All of the pieces are there. Execute and win. Go Sioux !!!

AD Harper addresses coaching, fights and letters Once again, I must ask, how is UND doing anything that is hurtful to a race?? Thank goodness Josie isn't in charge of anything else. In her world, if anyone was going to be offended, nothing could move forward. Someone is always is going to be on the short end of the stick. Someone is always is going to be offended in some way, real or otherwise.

Brand wants more black More social engineering from Brand.
