  1. Sioux at full strength. 38 second 5-on-3
  2. Tripping on the Mavs. 4-on-3 for 28 seconds, then 5-on-3
  3. Penalty on the Mavs at 6:34 of the 1st. 4-on-4 for 1:16 Crosschecking.
  4. Penalty on MacWilliam. Crosschecking. Pretty weak call. 14:08 left in the 1st
  5. This game is not on DirecTV. It is on FCS, but DirecTV doesn't care FCS full time and DirecTV chose not to show the games this weekend.
  6. Just last night and tonight, from what I've heard. DirecTV said they didn't have the bandwith to show the games this weekend.
  7. Did he really snipe the shot? Looked more like he lobbed it over (off of?) Cook's shoulder.
  8. Just looking at the Midcontinent website, I'd say try: 316 or 26
  9. Wasn't Parks the one in the crease when the puck went in? I didn't see the puck bounce off of him. Must have missed it.
  10. My point was that we can't breath easy even if we sweep this week.
  11. Remember, though, it's not all over after this weekend as far as the PWR are concerned. The games in the Final Five (and first round) affect things, too. That's not to downplay these games. These games (and next weekend) are games we should win, and need to win.
  12. I absolutely know that, but since everybody here is nitpicking about every little thing, you said "fighting to preserve their proud name", and the fact is, their name isn't being taken away from them, and they have no legal ground to argue that somebody is required to call themselves "Sioux".
  13. More like "anti-UND-sports-teams-using-the-nickname". Just because we want UND to stop using it doesn't mean we dislike it or think it's "hostile or abusive". We just recognize the impending damage that will be caused by keeping it.
  14. Wasn't the game three days ago?
  15. Do we know for sure all the home games will still be available over FTA? I suppose if WDAZ is still producing them for local broadcasting that means the feed would be there, but if UNDSN no longer exists, then will the game actually get uplinked to the satellite for us to pick up?
  16. At the same time they represent everybody who thinks the nickname should go as people who think it's racist.
  17. As I said in another thread, this is the exact reason I never switched to DirecTV. Since it airs on one of their alternate channels I didn't think I could reliably count on the games being on. Turns out I was right.
  18. I did see that this morning. Apparently it was up last night since there are people talking about it in the "Media Stories" thread.
  19. Nobody is forcing them to get rid of their name. They can continue to call themselves the Sioux as long as they want. For the good of the university, though, we should stop using it as a nickname.
  20. The game is still on FCS. It's just not on DirecTV. DirecTV chooses to use FCS as filler most of the time, which is why DirecTV subscribers get to watch the game, but they don't carry the FCS channels full time like Comcast does.
  21. Six periods. 120 minutes. Win each period, win each shift, win each battle. Ok, enough cliches. Just win. By the way, for those who didn't see the Tweet, this weekends games will not be on DirecTV. DirecTV made the decision to not play it due to bandwish issues (according to Hajdu). This is one of the reasons I didn't switch to DirecTV but instead stick with Comcast which has all three FCS channels on full time.
  22. At what point will you accept that it is "the end", we've lost and that the name has to go? The rest of us have resigned ourselves to the fact that we've reached the end and it's time to move on from the nickname.
  23. Here's the law: http://und.edu/university-relations/statements-announcements/hb-1263.pdf It says nothing about logos or uniforms or anything. And I'm pretty sure most teams have already removed the logos and "Sioux" from their uniforms, with the exception of the men's hockey team, and they're not "breaking the law" by not having them on there.
  24. Why do you feel they are legally and constitutionally obligated to do these things? Just because somebody likes something doesn't mean you are required to do it. There are plenty of TV shows that I've liked that have gotten cancelled. Were the networks being unconstitutional when they cancelled them?
