NCAA won't appeal ruling on North Dakota nickname

Pensacola is hosting the 2006 Division II National Sports Festival this weekend. Just to thumb my nose at the pinheads of the NCAA, I'll be attending some of the events wearing one of my favorite Sioux sweatshirts. Green sweatshirt with the word SIOUX in 6-inch letters.

Those fighting Sioux nickname lose sight of most Indian views Someone from the media actually interviewing Sioux people. Wonderful.

Another McMurry story. McMurry gives up nickname but not pride in its Indian ties

I know this is probably not a new thought, but I'm too lazy to read through 8 pages of this thread. Is there any chance that Mr. LaPointe was going to get thrown out of school for his SS.com exploits and was given the opportunity to quit first?

A move toward the Fair Tax would go a long way toward accomplishing that. Lobbyists would lose their influence to shape the tax code.

If the Big Sky is such a bad proposition, why was NDSU trying desperately to be invited to join?

A wise man once asked "What are the long-term goals and strategies of the various conferences ...?" Would you rather have a school for 3-4 years that does fit for the autobid or get a solid stable school that doesn't qualify at the present, but would be a future anchor for the conference. Keeping in mind of course that you don't presently need to have them qualify and you are just protecting your future.

Please call the Dakota Student. I would love to hear how they respond. Good luck, Sioux-cia.

Sounds like the twins are catching some eyes. Ruggiero, Team USA are shaping up

Rather than starting a McMurry thread, I'll just drop this one in here. United Methodist agency applauds decision to drop athletic name Even though I'm an FSU fan, who do you think this last part is directed at? And which school gets the waiver?

Didn't the invitation from the Horizon to Valpo come out of nowhere?

I may make a friendly wager with you, if indeed an SEC team is paired with Notre Dame in a bowl game. Depending on which team it is of course. I think that Auburn or Florida would take Notre Dame out.

I''ve always thought of this more as a message board than a chat board.

Maybe he meant "hosed".

D-I Status Would Help USD

How many memebers of that group would have to object to the use for the institution to change? If the majority of the group wanted to keep it or didn't care one way or the other and the "offended ones" were in the minority of the group would it still be morally wrong in your mind?
