Most normal fans of other teams do not daily frequent another team's site - unless there is something amiss - as has been pointed out it's pretty obvious these trolls have issues. Dudes get help if you are a troll and: - you find yourself drawn to this site - one of the first things you do every day is come to this site - when you aren't on this site you think about this site - you check this site several times a day - you have this site on your cell phone - you get a rise out of posting to this site Get a second job or even a first job, get out of the basement, talk to people in person. Go find some other fan site that would benefit from "the discussion and insight" you bring. Try and go a couple of days without visiting here - it will get easier - you will find more productive things to fill that time.

That would never make it in print. (To clarify while UND is the extreme underdog it has been proven time and again that when UND does defeat SU their fanatics come up with all kinds of excuses.) Even though UND leads the all time series and won a major majority of games played in the last 10 years of the rivalry - when scholarships were equal.

Uh not that I would set a toe into Bison-swille but I know I can find reference to "toe to toe" over there in many of the sports threads - this is a very tired cliche that is said by many coaches - it's not exclusive to UND but one that SU trolls love to throw out (up) whenever they can.

Wow you've been following the comments of UND fans on a UND fan site for that long and you remember that conversation - sad...just sad. Have you ever thought about how much of your life you are wasting on this site?

Here's a refresher course for putting trolls on ignore: Make sure you are logged in Click on Forums In the upper right corner click on your nickname A drop down box will open, click on "Manage Ignore Prefs" Type in all the troll names you want to ignore - you can also search for any name that has bison, SU etc in the name and add that. Click the "Hide" option in the Post column.

My money says if we left these trolls alone in here for a few days they would continue this thread and not even notice they're having their own daisy chain.

Uh we get it.

Please provide examples of any SU posts that actually focus on the game - the issue is we really don't need a bunch of trolls that feel the need to respond to every comment made here about SU - it's our thread of course we are going to want to slam SU and make positive predictions about our teams - what we don't need is constant troll postings like "trying making the playoffs" or SU chest pounders - I believe you have your own site for that. If you want to come here know you are going to read posts that are poking fun at SU or that are perhaps a bit optimistic about our teams - you don't need to respond to every one of them.

I vote for just "North" then.

I'm saying: no use in throwing out names as possibilities that aren't in the final seven, instead of dwelling on what you hate about the final seven find something you can at least tolerate - one of them is going to be on the jersey of our team in a couple of months.

This committee is not going to start over - it would be too much of a disgrace to them and UND - heads would roll. They chose the path and the name will come from one of these seven. In a perfect world they would be able to step back and say the process didn't work - but no other school has taken this path so there was no way to know that this was where it would end up. While many of us thought the "Consultants" were hired to bring creativity to the process the reality is they were hired to bring "safety" to the process. You will never get a creative name when "safety" is your primary goal.

I would like to see a poll: As a UND fan and member of this discussion board what would you prefer: - only ban posters who violate site rules - ban posters who are consistent and notorious trolls temporarily when they get out of hand - ban posters who are consistent and notorious trolls permanently - ban all NDSU posters those that are obvious and those that eventually come out from under the rock they are hiding under.

I hope someone from SU is coaching the staff down there to ensure he "gets his day in court."

Don't feed the trolls.

Actually I don't think they will disappear - many of the top level programs sprinkle in a few transfers most years - depending on need. The right transfers can bring a lot to a team - problem is there are reasons why players transfer and that can mean attitude issues and baggage.

Answers to # 1 and #2 - not yet but we are moving in the right direction #3 - Just like last year there will be some pleasant surprises.

Now it's come to bashing people who gave up an incredible amount of their own time and donated it to a project that they knew would submit themselves to endless second-guessing and criticism. No doubt some from the committee are monitoring here - they are doing what was asked of them, sharing their opinion based on what they feel to be in the best interest of UND. I find no valor or purpose in questioning their will to do the best they can, their loyalty to UND or their integrity.

What's it gonna take to ban this troll trash?

Funny how the SU trolls have time to go back and research the records of teams that UND beat - the same could be said for many of the teams SU beat but it's really not important since this is a UND sports site.

This will never happen - SU fans want to be in a conference where you can bus to every game. that's why they are glad they were turned down twice for the Big Sky, they can't afford to be in a conference where their teams would have to fly.

Those damn facts - hey trolls don't care about facts. They care about UND.

https://grandforks.craigslist.org/cto/5094852248.html So will there come a time when those with the Sioux logo will be shunned? Please don't turn this into a "If UND bans the logo they'll never see another dime from me" thread. Just wondering if it can transition to a piece of history peacefully. Will items with the Sioux logo become valuable collectors items? Can you see anyone in Grand Forks driving around in this in 5 years (see attachment).

Okay you've made your point - SU had a great run, one of the greatest in FCS history why do you have to diminish it by constantly demonstrating that no matter how great a run SU has, you and many others will be eternally inferior to the extend you have to prowl a UND fan site and set the record straight on every post. This is a UND fan site - we are going to be optimistic about our team (most of us) - why can't you understand that?

SU is a double digit favorite no doubt - but check the history (which SU fans have selective memory about). There are quite a few years when the lower-ranked of the two teams was the victor. Let's play the game.

Alumni Association is pretty good about supporting watch parties - you will hear from them I would expect.
