"Officially" that's where the campus is located.

And when it comes to worshipping team logos, you can ask Dave.

You must have a pretty good view from your high horse. I am, however, concerned about your observations of middle school age girls ...

Are you the pot, or the kettle?

On the flip-side, being a college-educated white male makes us a "minority" from a pure numbers perspective. Power, brothers!!!

But that was all propaganda spread by lies, disinformation and a refusal to drink Al Carlson's special party punch. In fact the brain washing of the North Dakota voter was so complete the North Koreans are taking notes and will be starting a cultural exchange program between Bismarck and Pyongyang.

Nah, I'd have to to tutor you in the finer points of criminal law as to when an utterance rises to the level of a crime. But then again, your idiotic comments make this board worth coming to in the off-season. Keep dancing Dave and there'll be nice a nickel in your tin cup ...

Dave's Dance Party is underway ...

Perhaps, but the entertaining part will be if Dave tries to dance and juggle his way out of it. It'll be like watching a third grade rendition of "Dancing with the Stars" ...

You continue to ignore the facts that the "majority" was held back by a vast "conspiracy" involving the NC$$, the alumni assocation, many posters on this board, 68% +/- of voters in the June initiative, the Pope, the Federal Reserve and Justine Bieber. There will be a great uprising by these unheard voices, unchained from their shackles by Reed Soderstrom, Al Carlson and Malcom XI, and everybody will live in peace and harmony, until North Dakota allows gays to marry and 'SU finally reveals the "truth" about its Animal Husbandry programs.

Nobody really gives a damn about NA "honor and respect". The NAs were expedient "tools of policy" for the NC$$, and everybody else on any side of the issue. Later they became an enemy of UND when their litigation threatened to turn the Sioux moniker into an albatross. As a practical matter, hard ball tactics are required to achieve a necessary end. Not pretty, but, like war, occasionally needed.

Like their history of ultimately giving up and moving on to reservations, like Red Cloud, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse did? Even those great leaders knew when they were up against an unmovable force, and the costs of continued fighting were much higher than any "honor" that might be gleaned from seeing their children and grandchildren dead. I'm not sure why certain people are so selective in their reading of history. And your continued chirping about "racism" makes Al Sharpton seem lucid.

When did the NHL mandate visors? Rules for helmets have been on the books for years, but I've heard nothing about visors beyond your and Dave's wistful dreaming I wonder if Matt Greene will be fined for playing without a visor, or bubble wrap.

Nah, I don't take myself that seriously. I was really laughing at you, not with you.

Are you kidding? He doesn't wear that bucket to play hockey, he uses it to watch TV. Never know if the screen is going to explode or emit dangerous waves of light.

Is the NC$$ going to magically disappear, Al? Do tell ...

If they want to be perfectly safe they could just sit on the couch with you. Think of it: No fighting, no pucks bouncing off your face, no sticks in your ribs ... just risk-free "bliss". I'd trot out the concept of "assumption of risk" to you, but you can't even handle the rudiments of logic.

But you've never played the game, so you have no point of reference beyond your own squishy opinions.

Well Dave if you want to drive around with no seat belts, in the middle of the night on a dark winding road, I encourage you to do so.

Dave's not a hockey fan, he's a logo fan.

Hell, for past couple of days I've just been trying to get my head around the premise that putting shields/cages on players will make them more reckless which should also make them "safer" ... Let alone actually expecting refs to blow the whistle on a more consistent basis. Next he'll tell us that Shanahan really doesn't have a dart board in his office with various suspension lengths on it ...

And not nearly as funny.

Throw in Illinois' little NC$$-inspired haircut regarding the Illini logo too.

I don't know what you grow in your basement, but I think you should share.

Well, since you started this "big time" debate, start developing the metrics into a coherent structure, and quit dancing around like Dave.
