Could you guys just stick to Sioux Hockey and not all of this other 'Holyer than thou" BS.
I mean come on, yeah yttrium, your posts said all the right things but do you really live your life by the way you'd like us to believe you do?
Why don't we just stick to talking about our boys in green and they're progress.
I highly doubt they're flying home talking about the great debate of the sioux name.
I'm a single father who works hard for what I have and when I can afford it, I take my kids to a game, but come on. It's really pathetic to play on words to get all kinds of praise on a board like this. So far, All I see are "cut and pastes" of articles by SOMEONE ELSE.
In Example:
Build Me a Son
General Douglas A. MacArthur
Build me a son, O Lord,
who will be strong enough to know when he is weak,
and brave enough to face him self when he is afraid;
one who will be proud and unbending in honest defeat,
and humble and gentle in victory.
Build me a son whose wishbone will not be
where his backbone should be;
a son who will know Thee- and that
to know himself is the foundation stone of knowledge.
Lead him, I pray, not in the path of ease and comfort,
but under the stress and spur of difficulties and challenge.
Here, let him learn to stand up in the storm;
here, let him team compassion for those who fall.
Build me a son whose heart will be clear, whose goals will be high;
a son who will master himself before he seeks to master other men;
one who will learn to laugh, yet never forget how to weep;
one who will reach into the future, yet never forget the past.
And after all these things are his,
add, I pray, enough of a sense of humor,
so that he may always be serious,
yet never take himself too seriously.
Give him humility, so that he may always remember
the simplicity of true greatness,
the open mind of true wisdom,
the meekness of true strength.
Then I, his father, will dare to whisper,
"I have not lived in vain."
Yes, It's a fantastic poem but let's leave it out of a hockey forum, I highly doubt General McArthur would want this beautful poem to be sitting on a heated logo name debate forum.
To the great boys in green- shrug it off and be ready for this weekend. Can't wait to watch another great series!
GO SIOUX!!!
