  1. Devils lake can support united but grand forks can't that's ridiculous. I usually fly out of Fargo after driving there from grand forks because of the flight options compared to gfk. I don't care what airport I am supporting. Time is money and hector saves me time even with the 2 hour round trip drive. It's too bad grand forks and Fargo just didn't build a combined airport in Hillsboro. Regarding United though. From my experience they are the worst airline to fly with. Maybe in my expereriences ohare is to blame but I also avoid United at all costs after some of my recent experiences with that 2nd rate airline.
  2. Congrats Campbell! Awesome!!!
  3. Does anyone have a contact for midco to discuss the possibility of fta coming back? Many Sioux fans had purchased these systems to watch Sioux sports and are now left with the only option of watching online. Joe sensers in Bloomington used to use this system to draw a crowd of Sioux fans for every game and now these games are limited with the new TV deal. There are many of us that do not have access to midco and now our only option is online. I'd be interested in talking with the right person at midco to see if they will consider un-scrambling. They are still using satellite uplinks and are only limiting their viewership by scrambling the feed. Heck I'd even pay a monthly fee just for their channel. Does anyone know the go to person at midco to talk to?
  4. So trail King was offering 15/hour. I still don't believe that's a wage you can raise a family on but I guess before we can truly point fingers here we need to look at the entire compensation package including health benefits. Many employers are spending over $1000 dollars a month per employee now a days. Is trail King? I still think trail King stinks in this one. Retaining one out of 280 employees should have had the big wigs taking a look in the mirror or at their management. Instead of blasting ex employees they should be looking at what they can do different or better. This would be the best step in making sure those future checks don't bounce. Continuing to go public and pointing fingers at a lazy generation won't do the company any good.
  5. So why does the federal government keep giving Lutheran social services more and more money to bring these folks over here?
  6. So our tax dollars are paying to bring most of the new Americans here. I wonder how much of our tax dollars are being spent on programs for them. I'm sure many of them work in the community and pay taxes but Id like to see some stats that show the revenue of their tax dollars vs the expense of the welfare dollars they receive.
  7. I heard the term new Americans used on the news last week after the brawl/house break in/pistol whip/car chase. Never heard this term used before but found it quite hilarious how politically correct everyone must be now adays. Anyways I'm curious. There's a somali that was just charged in grand forks with starting his apartment on fire and all I am hearing about these new Americans is the crime they are bringing to the region. Not trying to make this a racist post. I'm curious why more and more of these new Americans keep showing up to the region. Maybe there are some good hard working ones and the few are giving the rest a bad name? Who is helping bring all these new Americans here and in what cases has anyone noticed them being positive for the region?
  8. It's fast food how can the service be horrible? Either you get fast food service or good service in a fast food joint. Ok or slow service. I was there a few times and didn't mind their burritos but had a tough time convincing friends and family to join me because no one else I know liked their food. I think people don't want to order burritos that way in a fast food joint. I think most folks around here prefer a qdoba, panchero, chipotle, moes type setup for quick burritos.
  9. Toews has won 25 of his last 28 faceoffs. Amazing
  10. He could always just stand on the dasher! Or is that frowned upon in the NHL?
  11. Makes sense. He was undefeated coaching from the press box in college.
  12. Is gwoz still an assistant coach for Tampa bay? Curious why he's never on the bench if so.

  14. Yeah it sounds like he has no clue how to handle the media. First he says he's the best player in the draft. Now he's hinting another year at bu is possible. He's a great young player yes. But if I was either Edmonton or buffalo I wouldn't want him going back to college.
  15. It's just a hockey game on a prime time slot on NBC. No one watches this stuff! People were paying thousands of dollars for a single seat to last night's game. Niche sport! Haha
  16. Yep. Never seen any of them in person honestly but I've seen Tampa's, minnesota's, and chicago's on TV(one of the benefits of a Fta system). With the money the hockey team brings they gotta do this at the ralph!
  17. Why are they hesitant to allow their prescious team play this game? Are they worried bison football may fall back down to the number 3 team in state?
  18. Are you talking about the videos on the full sheet of ice? They put on quite the show at Amalie in Tampa with the Lightning on the ice. Would be neat to see something like this at the ralph.
  19. I'm sorry for your loss thoughts and prayers with you and your family.
  20. I'll definitely follow the flyers and cheer them on because of their ties to und with Hak. Already started liking them a little because vande has been playing for them.
  21. So maybe ncaa rules wouldn't apply if this exhibition game was played in Canada? Wouldn't a ncaa vs whl tourney in winnipeg be fun? Send und and bemidji up there with brandon and Regina!
  22. I think an exhibition after the season is over...like right about now would work perfectly!
  23. Hopefully they can make an exhibition vs a whl team happen soon. Brandon, seattle, everett, Portland, Id like to see more than one! I've also wondered if the ncaa would now allow since ncaa players will be allowed stipends. Plus umd plays exhibitions against u Manitoba which is a team that has former whl players. Und has also played an exhibition vs the usa world junior team and that team had canadian junior players I'm pretty sure. I really hope they can make some of these games happen soon. I think many will be surprised as to how these games go.
  24. Pierre Paul Lamoreaux will be selected after the hr dept is dealt with.
  25. Pierre Paul lamoreaux per 1310 radio source For the new open assistant coach position
