32 days 04:54 until the puck drops!

Good thing it's not your money being 'wasted'.

My son, Phats, is a big, strong kid. Has always been a big, strong kid. I raised him to 'turn the other cheek'. I knew early on that he could easily hurt someone without meaning too. At the age of 9 or 10, he came home from school visibly upset. When asked what was wrong, he told me I was going to be very angry at him. He beat Jared up. Apparently for weeks, Jared had been bullying Phats and calling him names. Phats would just walk away. On that particular day, Phats had had enough. In very short order, he proved to Jared and his cohorts that he was not a #*$$y. They, no one, ever bothered him again. While they were never best buds, they were and still are friendly. The teacher who observed the fight at it's end did not punish either boy. The situation, well known to him, was over and did not require any further intervention. I explained to Phats I did not want him fighting other children but I completely understood why he had to do what he did. I did not punish, scold, etc. him. It was not indicated. The above story is not to explain the Greene instance but in response to you 'anti-violence' in all instances stance. DaveK, IMHO, you're wrong in the Greene and in your 'no fighting ever' stance. Nothing you say is going to change anyone on this boards opinion. In fact, in the Ulf scenario, I believe you're acting a bit, no, alot like a hypocrite. But then again, IMHO.

Ya got a point there DaveK. They should have thrown Punkobitch's a$$ in prison for that hit!!

I think that we can all agree there are a small number of 'zealots', NA and non NA, that are behind the name change agenda. As polls have proven, the majority of Native Americans do not object, do support or do not have an opinion regarding NA sports names/logos/mascots. Why throw the baby out with the bath water??

Noted. I just don't think the two issues, our name and logo/Native American programs, should be dependent on the other.

I disagree. We don't have Native American programs so we can keep/use the Fighting Sioux name and logo. We have them because our institution is in North Dakota and it's the right thing to do. We offer Native American programs so NAs can get an education, so they can shed the cloak of 'victim', so they can move forward. Hopefully, they go back to their reservations and help fight alcoholism, promote health and education, and stop the vicious cycle of 'us against them'.

I totally disagree with just keeping the Fighting Sioux name and logo for only Hockey. What are we saying about our other sports? They're second class and aren't important enough to keep/use the same name as hockey? Why are we moving to D1? I know that's not what you're saying but that's the message that will be sent. Removing 'Fighting' from our name is not the only hostile and abusive part of our name and logo (per the NC$$ and the zealots), it the name Sioux and the logo, an Indian head. They're not going to be happy until we're know as the 'Whatchamacall'ems'. I believe if we called ourselves North Dakota, some fool and his followers will object because the name is Native American. This has to be resolved in a court of law. After we win, WE can decide if, when or how we want to change our name and/or logo.

I wear something pink to every Sioux football and hockey game I attend; it's not always visible though. It's one of the school colors so it's kind of a superstitious thing I do.

Absolutely!!

LOOK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!
