Additionally, note the top line of this PDF from fightingsioux.com: http://www.fightingsioux.com/downloads1/340779.pdf "The Interlocking ND mark must always be used in conjunction with another University of North Dakota trademark as illustrated with these examples."

I started looking for any info on this and didn't find anything yet. But I did find an article where Dave Kolpack calls UND "the state's flagship school". http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40183761/ns/us_news-life/t/logo-logo-nd-school-changes-its-brand/

The rinks they build up for the Winter Classic and other outdoor games have cooling coils running through the ice just like indoor rinks. That's part of why it's so expensive, I'm sure.

I wish somebody could explain to me WHY showing the powerplay time is "soooo expensive". All they have to do is point one more camera at the powerplay clock that's already showing on the in-house scoreboard. Then show that camera on screen next to the other clock. It's no different than what they do during the intros where they have split screen stuff showing multiple players skating around during warmups.

That was......surreal. Reminds me of the America's Funniest Home Videos of the 8 year old opening his new Super Nintendo at Christmas. I had to stop the video when they shows a 20 year old rolling around on the floor hugging his jersey.

The funny thing is I remember some pretty hefty smack talk from some Winona fans leading up to the playoff game. They were certain they had a shot to win the game. They did win the NSIC, afterall.

A quick look at the schedules/results over the past few years going back to 2000 and ending when we started the transition to D1: 2000 - Central Washington - 52-7 2000 - UM-Crookston - 49-3 2000 - Morningside - 54-6 2000 - SDSU - 42-0 2001 - UM-Crookston - 57-6 2002 - UM-Crookston - 57-0 2003 - UM-Crookston - 59-0 2004 - Mesa State - 65-7 2005 - Winona State - 51-6 2005 - Augustana - 52-3 2005 - Ferris State - 44-7 2006 - Winona State - 49-2 2006 - Winona State (again) - 42-0 (1st round playoffs) 2007 - Humboldt State - 59-0 2007 - St Cloud State - 59-14 2007 - Winona State - 44-2

I still get goosebumps thinking about how loud that building was that day.

What's this "I-AA" that you're talking about?

Honestly, I've always been a bit curious about this. The banner that's hanging should be the one that was originally hoisted in the year it was won. That would mean it would have the logo from that time period on it.

I was wondering the same thing. After the latest vote I assumed I had more time to stock up on Sioux gear. Plus, didn't the athletic department already announce they're using the name this season? Wouldn't it be too late to get new uniforms for all the teams? The hockey team would need a completely redesigned jersey.

Would it be possible to allow users to choose which twitter followers to display on the home page twitter feed? It would be nice to be able to filter out some feeds that mostly don't have UND related news, or at least nothing that isn't also posted by at least two other people.

Can you make it so you can't rep your own post? Kinda odd when a thread is a started (so it only has one post) but it has a +1. Sure enough, clicking on the rep shows that the OP repped his own post.

Very nice speech. Horribly given, but nice speech.

And Barry Melrose breaks the news that Matt signed with the Maple Leafs and will play with them tomorrow.

That was the first one I was talking about. You could tell Hakstol wanted to tell him it was a stupid question.

I'm 10 minutes in so far, and there have already been two stupid and/or biased questions.

I've got my playlist on shuffle and Van Halen's "Right Now" just came on. I can't help but think about the Sioux coming out of the tunnel whenever I hear the intro to this song. IS IT THURSDAY YET!?

I think something that's been overlooked in this thread, at least as far as I've seen, is the fact that a "wolverine" is actually just a big weasel. Anybody wanna do anything with that?

Remember, that'll only be tickets for the championship game that they'll be selling. The two semi-final games use the same ticket, and there is no re-entry. Is it Thursday yet?!

I was sitting one section to your left and I saw him making his way down the stairs. I, too, couldn't tell if he was absolutely hammered or if he was handicapped.

Makes things nice, doesn't it?

I think you're on to something here. Most people don't know what it's like to really be part of a passionate fanbase. Sure, you can be a diehard fan of your local professional sports team, but what connection do you really have? You live in the same city or state, therefore you're a fan. But you still really have no real connection. With a school, you are part of that institution. While you're not part of the team, there's definitely more connection to it. When somebody says something bad about it, you take it a bit more personally. Seems like Sioux fans foster that type of intensity and it doesn't seem to exist at most schools. Once a Sioux fan, always a Sioux fan. But with a lot of schools, it seems to me, once you leave the school, the fans couldn't care less what's going on there.

Not a fan of Lacrosse?

Would the pre-game rally be before the 4pm game? For those who go to both semi-finals, we wouldn't be able to go to anything, because even the Rivercentre would require leaving the gates of The X.
