  1. I'm not sure how wide, but I think they're only about 8 rows high. Maybe they are 9 or 10, but I can only think of 8 in my head. Remember also, they have to be able to be stored on the north and south walls when folded up, so they can't be too tall, but it would probably be possible to go a few rows higher and still fit.
  2. The program is only in it's third year. You have to cut them a bit of slack. If it's still happening in another 2-3 years, then maybe it's time to start thinking....
  3. I've never been a fan of the Italian Moon (then again I don't like the Red Pepper either.....don't kill me), but I've always thought there needs to be some more high class restaurants. Sanders is really nice, but something like Olive Garden (already suggested) would be nice. Some place you could go dress up and go out to and not feel out of place.
  4. I agree with you on that. My big problem isn't that people are being turned away when they're calling it a sellout, because if there aren't any tickets, there aren't any tickets, but rather how many empty seats there still were. I'm just going to believe it's the fact that it was a Thursday night with inclement weather.
  5. That's not the argument, though. The point is that they called it a sellout with just over 3,000 as announced attendance, and there were PLENTY of open seats. Question: Do season ticket holders have assigned seats or general admission? If they're assigned, then it's going to be hard for you to get me to believe that some people have season tickets in the top few rows of the arena, where there definitely were some open seats yesterday.
  6. I have to agree. If that's what the place is going to look like when they stop selling tickets, then there's a problem somewhere that has to be fixed ASAP.
  7. That was my thought in the first place. After most of the commotion direction around him settled down, it seemed he totally snapped, tackled the the guy who was hanging on him and just started throwing haymakers. A side of Spirko nobody had seen before.
  8. Since it's damn near impossible to search through 37 pages, unless you have a lot of time to kill, and since this thread is here: Does anybody know, off the top of their head, how much it costs to set up a system? Parts and install?
  9. After review, they moved the DQ from Spirko to Finley.
  10. I would love to Alexander playing on Friday. At least give him a chance and see how it goes. If things don't go well, or Hak doesn't like something he sees, he can always fall back on a 5-man rotation.
  11. Maybe somebody can clear this up, but does anybody really remember Zajac going to the box? I don't. All I remember is watching his stand around holding a Mankato guy. Well, they were holding each other. I don't remember him doing anything, or going to the box.
  12. We actually did have a bit of it last year, but with the band up in the rafters it wasn't noticable except the couple times the REA played Don't Fear the Reaper.
  13. Another thing they made not have made it to the TV, because of all the other goings-on.... Finley was in a shove match with somebody (I didn't catch which player) in the bottom right corner (trying to think how it would be viewed on TV). It almost got out of hand when Oshie went streaking over to the corner, shoved the Mav player away, then turned to Finley and shoved him away just as hard. This was before Finley headed over to the top corner to join in with that little fiasco, and clearly before Oshie got tied up. It was pretty funny to watch Oshie shove his own teammate away from a fight, though. Which is why I was all that much more surprised when he snapped.
  14. Don't forget to get some of them to student section in the upper deck.
  15. Buning is a GREAT guy. We all know the problems he came into this job with, and there's no question he knew what he was going to be getting himself into when he took the job. He easily could have taken this job and just rolled through it and not given all the effort he has. He really is working very hard to do all he can to please everybody. He's trying to make this university a better place, which is what we need from all administration. Every time I talk to him he is always thankful and always willing to chat for a minute. I honestly don't think we could have found a better man for the job.
  16. I have also attended many classes here at UND the last few years, and it seems no matter what level of class I am in (short of some 400 level classes) there are always immature students who complain about everything. Whether it's taking notes, doing homework, or just coming to class, they constantly complain as if they are being asked to do something unreasonable. When you are in college, you should realize before hand that you will be needing to attend class and have to do homework for your classes. As for immature classroom behavior, I don't think it matters what level class you are in, there will always be people fooling around in class, not paying attention, talking to friends, and whatever else they can do to not pay attention, including playing games on their laptops. I sometimes think everybody should get thrown into "the real world" before coming to college so they mature a bit.
  17. You're getting and education out of the deal, the other taxpayers aren't. The argument of "students are paying tuition along with the $75 for tickets so they should get more say in things" is really getting old. It's a horrible argument that people need to stop using. Sure, you will be an alumni someday and you will be donating money. But these alumni also were students at one point who had to pay tuition.
  18. It was something as simple as the F-M Bees paying for a hotel room for him for one night or something small like that. Most people thought the NCAA would overlook it and say "alright, he can play," because if they had, that team, along with Jerome Beasley would have had a shot at going all the way. He was a HUGE showboat, though. One time he was on a breakaway and tossed the ball up and was going to do a mid-air spin then dunk. He missed the catch and landed funny and hurt his ankle.
  19. According to the Senators website, Bochenski will not be playing tonight.
  20. Is the "What-If" calculator back for this year?
  21. That's the word on the TV.
  22. Maybe some memory of this win (the past few minutes) will pump them up to work for a full 60 for every game for the rest of the season. Those kids looks ecstatic on the bench.
  23. I think my neighbors just heard my yelling... Now we have to hold them off. One of the biggest problems all season is giving up a quick goal after one of our own.
