  1. That might be the WORST hat ever. unreal that ever made it to the shelves. Not sure I'd wear it, but it's actually not bad. Then again, i'm just not a big hat guy....
  2. That's clever once in an email to your friends, or a one-time tweet. And then it's just dumb. Has always grated on me. Still not a huge fan of the logo but works ok on that shirt. I'd actually wear that.
  3. agree. I get it, but I just don't care for it
  4. I know we're well past the point of giving input on what the logo should be or how it could be tweaked, but just for the sake of conversation, I'm thinking if the upper feathers on the hawk were upturned a bit, a little more of a ski jump to them, it might have more dramatic impact. Just a thought
  5. I'm on record as not being a huge fan of this logo. Not sure if it's the black letters but this doesn't look all bad. Better than I would have expected.
  6. So, curious, maybe more people like the hawk head incorporated in the ND as part of the logo than I think, but what are the possibilities that at some point in the future they'd pluck that hawk off the ND, and just drop that on the helmets. Would be very Arizona Cardinals-like, but already acknowledging that our nickname and logo is not all that unique, that's actually a pretty good logo/helmet.
  7. Just a comment about the alleged incident involving a band of Muslim's threatening law abiding citizens in Minneapolis. This was posted on our neighborhood NextDoor social networking site. I'm not going to include the name of the person who posted it to protect their privacy, and of course we can all question the legitimacy of the post. But FWIW, it does offer a possible explanation for why this was all swept under the rug: So, while this doesn't mean it didn't happen, it sure puts a lot of doubt into the story.
  8. They are using UND to try and fill the venue for their other games. You are welcome, UofM Hockey. If I go, though, it will be because I managed to get tickets on the street.
  9. If I'm not looking directly at the logo my mind perceives the shape of a buffalo. To me it still doesn't look like an athletic logo. Visually it all works ok, though.
  10. Oy, the new logo on the football helmets is kind of reminiscent of a buffalo (the shape, anyway). Visually, it struck me early when i wasn't focusing directly on the image. I really had to focus on the image itself to get past that. Kind of like when you don't look straight at a dim star at night you can kind of see it better. I do applaud the football program's acclimation to the new nickname and logo. For me I just wish the logo was a bit more athletic and less corporate-y(conversations well documented in these threads so I won't go into more detail now).
  11. He just found out "making America great again!" didn't include a return of UND using the Fighting Sioux nickname.
  12. It's still a corporate looking logo to me, not so much for athletics, but it's pretty sharp. I hope one day they find a way to pull that hawk out of the ND and find a way to allow it to stand alone. Perhaps a few small, tiny details (like the black tips of the feathers someone had added earlier) might help turn that into an ok athletic logo.
  13. How fortunate were we as fans last year? I didn't get to see many games in person, and unfortunately 2 of them were the Frozen Faceoff games, but the team definitely made up for it! Heck of a year, with so many incredible plays, and overall just a good team easy to root for. AND then they bring IT home. Hope we as fans don't take it for granted!
  14. One one hand he admits it was the NCAA that forced UND's hand, and then UND is supposed to buy back all of the Fighting Sioux merchandise? Makes no sense.
  15. I would too. I'm not all that informed about the importance of conference affiliations, I just like seeing UND play teams in the area that are easy for road trips. Some of us don't have the time for weekends away, so driving distance from the Cities is great for me. And I think teams that are close help make for intense rivalries.
  16. This is a major improvement me (on the clean and simple) This made me laugh out loud That logo is no better than the one UND rolled out, IMO
