Childress is the only reason Brooks is on an NFL roster at all.

If I were a goalie I'd wanna strap on the ol' Jason mask for tonight.

She puts the "Bird" in bird cage liner.

Brekke and Ralston will do fine in the interim. Let the new president hire their own AD.

I hear "Ghost Hunters" will be filming an episode at Twamley Hall this season...looking for any sign of life whatsoever...paranormal or otherwise.

What "higher ups"? Who are these "higher ups"?

Rob is a great guy...but let the new president handle this one.

If true...the inmates are now officially running the asylum.

Agree with your assessment of the players, disagree on the class warfare bit.

The end of a garden weasel would be the logo.

Nope, that caused a "hostile and abusive" situation at William & Mary.

Jennings just torched Dre Bly, and that's that. 19-13 Packers Final.

Barnburner in Denver right now. OT coming up.

I hope the Rockies are in town that weekend.

As you've stated before, it would set us apart from the other 3 flagships in the Dakotas. Sort of like "Carolina" being synonomous with the University of North Carolina. I like the idea.

The Fighting Catfish?

Hmm...the Red does tend to rage from time to time. What about the fish and other animals that are negatively impacted by this? It's a little disturbing that you're not taking their feelings into consideration.

How about the Gregarious Green? We get to keep the same colors, and it symbolizes that we are very welcoming and outgoing.

That is an Alcoa fantastic finish. What are some others that come to mind? Here's one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHkABO0VwCg GOD BLESS THOSE KIDS!!! I'M GONNA BE SICK...I'M GONNA THROW UP!!

Sugar beets rob the soil of precious nitrogren, and I find that quite upsetting. I'm offended.

If we're talking about tip-toeing around on a message board to find words that might not offend the right people....well, I'd say the writing is on the wall. Let's move onward and forward.

We fought the good fight, now it's time to drop it, ASAP. I really can't see us adopting some new age stupid-ass nickname like Firehawks or Storm. Here come your University of North Dakota Fighting Green. Whatever we do, Green, White, and Black must stay. No nickname at all would be ideal, but as others have pointed out, it looks like we must adopt something new per the settlement. Let's make it as generic as possible until such time comes that something else emerges, if ever.

The University of North Dakota Kelly Green, with a big fat "DAKOTA" across the front of all uniforms. That's the best I have right now.

HI everyone! Still absorbing the settlement news. How are they doing? The Dwight Clark Tecmo Bowl re-enactment in my sig line cheered me up.
