Except for the fact that there is a "Fire someone" thread started every year here. I'm not satisfied but I believe that Faison has things under control and definitely isn't motivated by threads like this - I know many here are just waiting for attendance at Nov. 9th to say I told you so - forgetting that every year that weekend is the lowest attendance for the year - I'll let you figure out why. Still haven't read any post that supports how this thread could lead to "positive" change.

Please enlighten me on the value of this thread for UND and the football program and how it might create any kind of positive change..

So you're saying you agree that the way to show support for a program is to create threads that are unending insults, put-downs and jokes about UND's football program, players and coaches and that this is the way to make sure the administration takes notice and figures out that those who are the real geniuses with the best interest of UND are lactually urking in chat rooms spewing idiocracy behind imaginary names?

Yah everyone knows that top notch ADs got there by taking advice from chat rooms and emails. Unless your message has a check attached it's not going to be taken as anything but SPAM.

Weber's board is just like every fan board they've got their 20-somethings with nothing better to do - dang wouldn't you expect to read positive comments and optimism on a school's fan board - what would you expect to read - pessimism, smack on the players and coaches, negative jokes about their own team, insistent caling for firings? Well if that's what they are looking for then they should be love our football threads.

So with that logic a team that has a bad season would never be able to turn it around. There are plenty of talented kids out there looking for a great education in fields that UND offers (ok I now understand why that wouldn't be considered in this thread), what about wanting to be a part of a growing program and helping turn things around, playing in the Big Sky - the football category on SiouxSports has become a cesspool of negativity driven by a bunch of fair weather fans that hide behind fake names and make fun of student athletes, diss a program they should be supporting no matter what and call for guys jobs. You can bash me but I won't see it because I'm not coming back here - God GROW UP!

Maybe: He was there to get tips on how to avoid DUIs. He should have taken some advice from Beck on how to walk away from the police. He was on his way to Best Buy several players told him the football team gets a great discount there. Just shows that the Fargo police have it out for anyone connected with FU football.

Sad....just sad.

Let's not get personal - everyone is entitled to their opinion - this is a chat room isn't it. I realize I'm not one of the football genuises in the room just enjoy the sport for what it is. Not my style to scream for a man's job and livilhood or smack down anyone whose opinion doesn't match mine. Carry on...

McCartney's record was: 2-8-1, 4-7, 1-10, 7-5, 6-6, 7-4, 8-4, 11- 1 - There would have been a Fire McCarney thread the middle of year 3 based on this thread. By the way based on this record it's sad that "the administration and alumni were willing to settle for mediocrity all those years and allow a coach who obviously couldn't recruit and had lost the belief of his players to remain around. Just looking at his record over his first 6 years it was obvious he was in over his head and didn't have a staff for DI football." or so I've been lead to believe based on similar comparisions.

I blame Muss.

As much as I think this thread is not something I want to contribute to - can we not assume that just because a seat is empty doesn't mean it wasn't sold via season tickets - also do students pay for tickets - if not then there is no lost revenue from a student ticket that goes unclaimed. There are always empty seats at The Ralph but it's always a sell out. But I guess whatever you look for you can find - good or bad.

It is acceptable for a bison fan to diss their team when they lose to UND - then it's always "Our worst team in school history, our coach needs to be fired and UND was only the better of two bad teams".

Do we need to start a category and entitle it Nonsense. Yes it's a free country and you can post whatever you want but please explain how this fits into the purpose of talking about and supporting UND sports?

University of Montana football player Matt Hermanson (accused of Criminal Mischief) has been suspended from participating in the Northern Arizona game due to a violation of a student-athlete code of conduct. Hermanson, a junior free safety player for the team, will not make the road trip when the Grizzlies play their first Big Sky Conference game of the season in Flagstaff on Saturday against NAU. Discuss.....

Some here are overly troll-sensitive because of the unending trolls from a school we fondly call FU (Fargo University). Thanks for taking the time to visit we hope to be among the top teams in the conference in the near future.

So someone showing up at a UND Football game in a bison shirt is thus also a dumb*** (happens every home game).

Great Sioux sign placement - gotta love that it's there and no one can get at it. Brilliant! (did see at least two negative Sioux signs in the background - best they could come up with is a sign about another school - I guess.)

Just don't see the need to discuss FU in a UND football thread - don't the trolls bring enough of that?

Take it to Bisonswille.A loss is a loss.

Too bad all the great football minds hang out in chat rooms and aren't able to break into coaching and athletic department management. Ironic how so many like to blame recruiting as one of the problems then threads like this, which we all know potential recruits read, are never ending.

I'll buy you a drink a the Hoggsbreath gathering this year.

If that's the bar you're willing to settle for (extreme sarcasm).

Pile it on I can take it. Hey PayPal has a family to feed too
