Does anyone know how to keep armadillos from chewing up my yard?

The more I look the more I see public opinion on our side.I read an article about this controversy a couple of years ago...the American Indian activists who were complaining were not Sioux.Don't you find it a little funny that the NCAA based in Indiappolis, Indianna, has a problem with indian names? I wish they would enforce minimum academic standards among the players and not worry about BS like the names of teams. Who elected them king? -
Damn skippy. I hope UND can get whatever they can out of the NCAA. Bunch of hypocritical political terrorists, they is.

Not snowing in Florida.
The stuff that is white and looks like snow is actually sand.

This is from a Florida State message board.
Best of Luck to UND.When this all came up I went to there web site and loved their logo. My son bought me one of the hockey jerseys off their site for Christmas last year.
Something I wish we had done from the start. -
as posted in the other thread (resteraunt thread)
now the question is for those who have cable, is the channel on the list your local FSN or the FSSN?
I know Midco is using the same FSSN channel. Reason I ask is if those other channels listed are the channels that you NORMALLY see the Sioux games, then maybe it will be FTA
Thanks Iceberg. I just saw the there were two threads and was about to add post to this thread.

I just saw this over on the fightingsioux.com
FSN Partners with local cable affiliates
It has a list of where the game can be seen.

Please let's not be debating the populations of Fargo and Grand Forks in the 1950s.......there has to be better filler for this board.....
I agree that thread has detiororated and I'm partially to blame. I think JBB wants to take this back to the riverboat and railroad days. -
If that were really the case, they wouldn't have allowed any waivers such as were given to FSU and Utah. NCAA Championships will not be free from Native American imagery if waivers are given. What a load of crap. I agree, I hope they do take such a stand in court. Kupchella's statements about the NCAA being arbitrary and capricious will stand out.

Could you explain what "MSAs" are? Thanks.

The Check-out Line.
Ringing up the goals and watching the NHL cash register totals for the three get higher.
Okay, I know it stinks, but it was the best I could come up with.

Fargo was also larger than Grand Forks before the interstate highways, athough it has been growing slightly faster since then.
Population in 1950 (pre Interstates)
Fargo 38,000 G.F. 29,000
Population in 1990 (last decade before the flood)
Fargo 74,000 G.F. 50,000
Granted, Fargo was larger than GF pre-interstate, but there was a brief period of time that Grand Forks was growing faster than Fargo, despite Fargo's geographic advantage. Prior to the interstate Fargo still had Hwy's 10 and 81, while GF had 2 and 81. Since 10 came through the Cities and headed toward the NW into Fargo, it is a natural distribution line. The one time when GF was growing faster is when the GFAFB came into the picture and GF's growth rate surpassed Fargo's. When the interstates were built Grand Forks was 80 miles too far out of the way, thus being the impetus for the growth of Fargo. Of course the flood didn't help either.

It appears Josh didn't have enough Morning Coffee. Maybe a few more pots and he will re-read his blog and see how ridiculous it sounds.

Great job Ladies. Keep it going.

Interesting point of view coming from a moderator over on Bobcat Nation.
Bay Area Cat said:
You know, UND should file another lawsuit as a parallel strategy in case this case against the NCAA falls through.As anyone who has opined on this topic knows, the reason the NCAA has ruled against UND is because the local Sioux Tribal governing bodies have requested this of the NCAA, saying that they do not approve of the way UND uses their tribal name as a mascot for their athletic programs.
To get around this complication, UND needs to sue the Sioux Tribe's governing bodies for the exclusive rights to the name "Sioux."

Thanks Jim.

Go get'em Wayne. What about an injunction, so that the Sioux can host playoffs and wear standard uniforms? Or is an injunction automatic?

I like the 7 points. Here is my take:
Conventional wisdom of the NDSU Fan:
1) UND will lose to Northern Iowa, badly.
2) UND athletics is a basket case financially.
3) UND athletics will be stuck as an independent for a long, long time.
4) The FSSN has no impact on conference decision making.
5) UND has absolutely no leadership, and is doomed.
6) NDSU will surpass UND in stature.
7) Grand Forks has nothing whatsoever going for it and is destined to be a hell-hole.
Conventional wisdom of the UND fan:
1) NDSU will get crushed by DI-A Ball State
2) NDSU will fail in DI, it' a waste of money, no local talent, no difference from D2
3) NDSU was foolish to move without conference invite, or at least a secret one.
4) UND hockey is the biggest thing in North Dakota
5) UND has absolutely no leadership and is doomed, Bunning is ok though
6) NDSU will surpass UND in stature
7) Grand Forks has nothing whatsoever going for it and is destined to be a hell-hole
Other than 4) UND hockey is the biggest thing in North Dakota, the remainder is jibberish. Items 5-7 are the same on both lists.
