Thanks, I think I like the second one better. I think I may have found my answer, but I'll keep looking. Sarcastic Font

I understand that "we" don't get a choice in the matter. Just stating the obvious (which my wife says I do far too often) that segregation is too good for him. I wish there a text style for sarcasm that I could use when I'm stating the obvious or some other sarcastic quip.

We don't want that. That would be letting him off too easy. He needs to be subjected to years of torture from the other inmates. On second thought, maybe a public display of torture such as that in Braveheart then place him in prison. Maybe have certain parts of his anatomy removed during the torture. As you can tell this kind of animal brings out the worst in me.

Do you have a breakdown of male/female? How many were wearing UND garb so we can be sure that they really were UND fans?

Congratulations to the Bison. I'm sure that it has taken a lot of hard work to get to this point.

Has your perspective changed over the years on the Mid-Con? I recall you saying the you would rather be independent that be in the Mid-Con. I know point of view can be altered over time. Situations change.

If I were a Bison fan, I wouldn't like how this has been handled. Why not make one announcement and let each of the schools hold their own press conference or have the representatives of each school come to Mid-Con HQ and have one press conference for all? I know that many Bison fans are a little uneasy about the events of the day, but I still think that the Bison will get an invitation, whether they take it or not, who knows. They may have multiple conversations going on with Mid-Con and Big Sky.I know I'll get blasted for that last statement, but so be it.

Not too unhappy. They are the ones saying it.

You're joking right? I could find 10 threads in a matter of minutes over at B'ville where they are either predicting or hoping that North Dakota fails in the jump to DI. As IowaBison has stated in the past they are probably a minority of the overall Bison fans, but to say you don't see any is nuts.

I have the MP3 HCHockeyMix on my desktop at work and had to pull it up this morning. I wasn't fortunate enough to be at the game, but did listen to it that night. The guys who did the mix did a great job. It gives you goosebumps. I love that line.

"Sorry for reporting some facts??" You come on here and spew out a number and we are all supposed to agree without questioning?? Additionally, some of us don't believe in scolding our children until we have all the facts. As "Sic" said. details please.

Typical Bison fan fanning the flames with "0" facts. Bad "news" used to include facts, but with today's media it isn't a requirement.

We went to Potato Bowl last year, parade, tailgating and of course the game. Great time!! Won't be able to make the trek north this year.

Division II outlook http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/foo...i-capsule_x.htm It looks as though they think this is our last year in Division II.

For what it is worth, I usually enjoy IowaBison's posts. He is just a misguided in life having been a graduate of NDSU. I agree with Redwing's rant in that I don't post over on Bisonville, as I really don't have much to add to their conversations.

Do you have a link or some reference to which you can direct us, the ignorant masses, or is this inside information only?

Basketball is not germane to this discussion. The only sport to my knowledge that has minimum attendance requirements is I-A football. If your attendance falls below 15,000 you may be asked to drop from I-A to I-AA. Whether you are DI-AA or D-IA in football you are still Division I in basketball and your slice of the basketball pie would remain the same with the possible exception of the conference you are in. The power conferences obviously are taking more of the pie.

You answered your own question: How does asking questions constitute starting rumors? I agree with Katothr's statements. You go ahead and stand by your statement and stand alone.

Looking at the UND interactive map I find that the Old Ralph is being used for an Environmental Training Institute. I don't remember hearing that before. Is this just a temporary use of the facility? Is this a new program? Being in construction I can see a real need for this type of education. Mold remediation and lead abatement are big businesses. http://www.UND.edu/map/map.html

We are not going I-A, but a number of teams are not reaching the 15,000 attendance requirement for I-A and may have to drop back to I-AA. 6 of these teams are in the MAC. Admittedly these schools are not next door to us, but I wonder what will happen to them if they do need to drop back to I-AA and what will happen to the MAC? Sorry for being unclear, but it was late.
