Anybody else having feed issues? I just lost it

There is a link on UND's website with all of the Fight Songs, their lyrics and musical samples courtesy of the Varsity Bards. Tell a friend... http://www.UND.edu/schoolsongs/ Fight on Sioux was always my favorite. By the time the teams came on, it felt like my lungs would burst. Maybe its worth tackling the REA screen again. If at first you don't succeed, right? Glad to hear the students were trying and being appropriate. And it will take awhile to get everybody in it but that doesn't mean they should give up.

Thanks for the updates/recap everybody. Sounds like a fun night to be at the Ralph! Great job Sioux, finish them off tomorrow night! Go Sioux!!!

I was agreeing that the argument that students pay more does not work, no matter how you spin it. And Goon, I agree. It is a very strong sense of entitlement for anything. Its unfortunate.

Believe it or not, it still occurs at the graduate level as well.

Yes...I would like enlightenment on this specific question as well. I'm certain it won't be answered though.

And tax-paying North Dakota residents that are also students pay not only tuition but the taxes AND the student ticket...so whats your point? That I should have gotten even more special treatment because I qualified as a tax-paying, school attending North Dakota citizen? The argument doesn't work.

Looking a little more closely at that list I say we go for an "All cowbell, all the time!" weekend of tunes, or more, at REA: ACDC - Thunderstruck ACDC - Hell's Bells Aerosmith - Walk This Way B'52s - Love Shack Barry White - Can't Get enough of your love, Babe <--- In case of a "Prpich/Peluso" event Blues Brothers Band - Gimme' Some Lovin' <--- In case of a "Prpich/Peluso" event Bon Jovi - Bad Medicine Charlie Daniels Band - Devil Went Down To Georgia <-- if nothin' else for Brad Miller Cinderella - Shake Me <--- In case of a "Prpich/Peluso" event Commodores - Brickhouse <-- what else would you play in REA? Dixie Chicks - Goodbye Earl <--- for everybody's Wisconsin Badger buddy Joe Cocker - Leave Your Hat On <--- In case of a "Prpich/Peluso" event Kingsmen - Louie Louie <-- classic for the old folks, like PCM. Lipps, Inc. - Funky Town <-- the cowbell disco funk classic! "Won't you take me to ... " Lynyrd Skynyrd - Gimme Three Steps <--- by request from Bochenski to Ballard Motley Crue - Dr. Feelgood Nazareth - Hair of the Dog <--- 70s metal cowbell classic! Twisted Sister - We're Not Going to Take It <--- 80s metal cowbell classic! Van Halen - Dance the Night Away <--- In case of a "Prpich/Peluso" event WAR - Low Rider Wild Cherry - Play That Funky Music <--- for the band

I'm booking the first flight home. What's this lying around sh**!!?? Come to think of it, I'm going to start protesting the recording industry for the song "Bohemian Rhapsody." After all, Queen had no right use my family's heritage to promote his music. And that Mike Myers and Dana Carvey...I'm going after them too. How dare they? I ask you...how dare they head bang in unison? Galileo, figaro, magnifico...how insulting...what gibberish...what an outrage..what a scandal. I'm writing a strongly worded letter to my congressman. With big words...and...and...big words...

The whole debate is so tiring. I've been reading on here for months about the same stuff. The logic that people should be held accountable and continually berated for their ancestors actions is ridiculous. As a German I should be responsible for all the Jews, gypsies, homosexuals and others that the German population ostracized and executed 60 years ago?? As a gypsy I should be up in arms over how my people were treated 60 years ago by the Germans?? I have other things to direct my passion and attention toward...educating my future children about hate and racism and acceptance of all people. The past is in the past for a reason...learn from it so its not repeated but dont use it as a crutch and move forward.

To that one dude that is making ridiculous comments about the band and its members sexual preferences (which are assinine and out of line by the way).... I've lurked on here long before I became a member to know that "flame the band is not a new thing but also there are many supporters on SS.com for the band. Woo hoo for you guys! If I remember correctly, I believe the REA radioed to the band in the middle of a game and asked the director to tell the cowbell player to play when then the Blue Oyster Cult song was played and the cameras would zoom in on him during the song. The REA asked the cowbell dude to do it once to parody the SNL skit we all know and love and it caught on as a crowd pleaser after that. As BGAnt said, you are in the minority when it comes to criticism of this guy. As for the band going to Madison and taking ideas from them...then you would be complaining that they are copying their band and they are not original enough...cant have it both ways. Disclaimer: I'm speaking on my past experiences with the band and am not a current member of the band. I don't speak claiming to know how things are run now (I am only a year removed however). But in general, unless you've been in a band of any kind at any point or talked to their members, it may be hard for you to really understand how difficult it is to rotate music for the few seconds we have between whistles, the communication that is necessary and at times difficult with the REA to coordinate canned music with band music and how much those kids work their tails off to please ALL the fans. From a proud alum, Thanks to all that appreciate the band. Not everybody is gonna like us, but at least we like ourselves. Enough about the band. I really hope the students take the opportunity to at least listen to what the REA and other officials have to say instead of acting like 2 year olds who can't share. Hold on to the lower bowl seats like you really want them instead of dangling them like carrots, daring the REA to take them away and put you up top. Be a catalyst for positive changes. Throw around new cheer suggestions to each other, learn the school songs, make clever signs. Work together instead of picking sides. Take some of Engelbunny's and Sioux-Cia's and Taz and PCM's and other SS.com member's ideas and start to work it in. If you're afraid of what your other peers will think when you're not swearing and they are, be proud for having your own opinion and conviction and not following the sheep. Pretty soon, they'll be the only a$$ trying to start the F-bomb cheer. You're members of the adult community now, act like it.

Having been a guest of my employer's suite at numerous Ralph events (not just hockey), I can assure you that the items in that suite are NOT free. The food, beer, wine and soda is ordered from the Ralph at an additional charge to the suite holders. That fridge was stocked top to bottom, front to back with beer and soda and I was blown away by the costs for the nights entertainment. And yes, my business did do "business" at the games but not in the manner that most folks think. It was a Thank you to the customers by giving tickets to them and their families. I don't recall any discussions about portfolios and numbers while I was there. But as one guest in the suite, I could have given a rat's behind about what the SR. VP was doing with his guests. I got myself a drink, had a bit of food, thanked my boss for the ticket, presented myself and my employer appropriately (its called social graces..something some people dont have) and went about my business as a fan. I was wearing my colors and cheering and sitting in front and making more noise than some folks but I was still invited back. They loved my enthusiasm. At times I got a few of my other co-workers in the act. Dont lump everybody in the suites as the same. I hope your sense of entitlement wears off. It will cripple you when you graduate from UND and get out into the real world.

Good effort gents, glad to see you come out after last night. Wooo hooo Go Sioux!!!

SPIRKO!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 4-2 SIOUX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woooooooooooooooo Zajac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gotta play for the name on the front, not the name on the back. Its not enough that only 3 or 4 guys play good, it takes the whole older core and team to play....Good job Fabian...

I like Taz's ideas. Maybe people should get some ideas together and get them published in the DS (oh the horror)...lots of students read that thing and will at least be exposed to new ideas. Maybe the Herald (oh the horror) can get in on the act so the entire public is aware. Students should take advantage of having the band closer to them as well...we always wanted to be closer and be a part of the students and not pushed away or in a different class just because we were in the band. I really wish I had the chance to be in the lower bowl but alas..I had to get old

I had Doug MacDonald for a prof and he is part Native. I believe he is part Lakota, cant remember specifically. Good guy in my opinion, good professor. Strong in his beliefs but nothing wrong with that at all.

Go back and read the thread tool...there were not many complaints about the refs tonight...it was all about our team which came out and did nothing for themselves and everything for the Gophers...Enjoy your win over on GPL and leave us alone...

6-1...there isnt enough beer in this house to get through this night...

Thank God that period is over......sigh...The shots on goal are pathetic, absolutely pathetic. 42-12 for two periods!!!! Phillipe is the only one playing out there. Penalties are killing us boys, stay outta the damn box!!!! I really hate the Gophers...and that stupid MINNESOTA song is gettin on my nerves... Light em up Hak, they're embarrassing you and themselves out there.

Gophers score...1-0...damnit Come on Sioux, kick it up a notch..need more energy than this

Gopher power play...Tyler Chorney penalty...TH says diving by the Gopher... Come on Sioux, dont let them on the board
