  1. so easily google - able - according to Pew Social Trends, as of 2015 Italy had 20% over 65 vs. 13% in the U.S. Along with Germany, Italy has the highest percentage of older people than Europe or North America. Why would you choose to tell a blatant falsehood? Just lazy, or...
  2. good thing Harvard is playing RPI, so the Cornell forfeit wont matter
  3. Curious why you think UND fans will have access to that many tickets? I'm guessing something more likely 80/20 at best - Mariucci is not Magness arena
  4. LOL For being a real fan, you sure have a lot of conditions. Sounds like you might be better off taking a seat in front of your TV for the games.
  5. All these negative references to expensive consultants reinforce the notion that North Dakotans are a bunch of hayseeds. ' We don't cotton to yer types around here, mister. You best go on back where ye came from. And take yer fancy haircuts and collars with ye'.

  7. Some thoughts from a 50 year UND hockey fan, former student, with many family members who have been both student and faculty at UND. Also a long time supporter of the Sioux nickname. The response rate to this survey would be considered quite good by professional researchers. The responses to SS.com poll are not projectable to any group except the posters who voted on SS.com The fact that the SS.com poll differs so greatly from the official poll should be a wake-up call to posters here: You do not represent the voting population in your opinions and preferences. Your conspiracy theories and demanding tones are misguided. Please let the whining be over after the runoff. There are biased hockey referees and self righteous Gopher fans that deserve your conspiracy theories and hatred much more than this nickname change process, however ineptly handled.
  8. Something to think about - every opposing fanbase,largely composed of young people, will quickly look up the nickname in the urban dictionary for ideas about how to best humiliate UND fans at the game. Has nobody on the committee considered this in the context of names like ' rough rider' ?
  9. A friend of mine just successfully purchased four tickets for each game for a total of $328 incl fees. Expensive but no additional ticket purchase required.
  10. Or the Frontier and J Bobby Hamilton!
  11. Jim Archibald hands down. How many players could rack up the points and the penalties like him. My favorite Archie move: In old Williams Arena, After a stoppage of play I think, Archie was skating for the bench and that pest Pat Michelleti of the gophs was coming off. They passed each other close, and Archie couldnt resist, golf swinging Michelletti off his feet with his stick (no love between those two). It appeared Michelletti did a 180 and landed on is head, which was probably the safest place for him to land. Today, Archie would have got skinned alive by the ref and the press for that move. Back then (1984ish) he got a roughing minor.
