When Twins won in Detroit to win the ALCS in '87 we hurried to the dome for the homecoming. 50k people rushing through downtown to get in. I happened to be walking next to Ryan and quickly told him my story of having a $10 bet at 40:1 for Twins to win AL and how my friend turned down the chance to get in. $400 was a big deal for me back then.
Not sure how he got my number but he called a couple of days later to get the whole story and wrote an article for the Herald.

Sad to hear. I didn’t know him well but enjoyed it when we did talk. Alzheimers is a terrible disease.

Tom Miller story says UND now will probably opt into the House settlement. Roster sizes grandfathered in thru end of current players eligibility. Deadline moved out to 6/30.

Alrighty then. Watch away
You are still missing the point. The question is why do some people feel the need to tell us they only like hockey and it hardly happens in the other direction? It comes across as petty and weird.
Glad to have your permission to join approximately 3-4 million others tonight. Thanks

I use to watch religiously back in the late 70’s to the mid 90’s. Loved the rivalaries with the Bull and Pistons and Celtics and Lakers. Also enjoyed watching the round mound of rebound. I just don’t like the product since the turn of the century. And I don’t understand why it bothers people that some of us don’t care for it. I know many that don’t like hockey. There choice. Just my 2 cents. Watch away
I'm happy for you.
It doesn't bother me that you and others don't care for it. My post was clear on that. It's the need to tell everyone about it and trash the NBA that I don't understand.
I don't ever think I've seen anyone go on an NHL or college hockey thread on here and post that they don't like those games. Is just weird to me that anyone feels the need to do that.

People actually watch that garbage league. Haven’t watched since the 80’s
I don't think they really miss you. NBA averages 3-5 times the NHL viewership.
I don't understand the need for a number of hockey fans to trash basketball. I have lived my entire life in MN and ND and don't remember it going the other way very often, mainly hockey fans running down basketball.
It's an old argument on here but I know a lot of hockey-only fans that wouldn't consider attending another sport at UND. To each his own, but I don't understand the need to trash other sports.

Agree this could be a reasonable role for him.
I don't understand others that are trashing him on here. Criticizing the decision the coaches made to start him and then not giving Jerry playing time during the year is fair. But Simon didn't make himself the starter and I'm sure busted his a$$ all year and gave all he had.

The Momentum Is Real For The Hawks On Recruiting Trail - UND Football 360
Loved his comment on how the 'Sack City' sign will be busy with the Edge recruit. I'll have to get my printer fired up again and stock up on numbers.

@UNDBIZ is correct. That's the foundation fee. Which I understand is probably a necessity. I get that. We dealt with that during the Impact Scholarship Campaign during the transition. It was a surprise, but I understand that part of it. Cost of doing business.
So UND is taking $25k without the money flowing through the foundation? Just because their name is associated with the NIL money raised?

Two things regarding the 1883 collective that need to be addressed:
First...It is an absolute administrative embarrassment and disgrace that UND is charging the 1883 Collective 25k a year to basically raise money for UND athletics only because they are doing it in the name of the University.
Armacost, Chaves and whomever else need to be held accountable for this. It's unnecessary overhead that needs to be resolved to be more financially efficient.
If anybody wants to b*tch about something important....this is it. Calls and emails. This is unacceptable.
Second ...rent for the 1883 collective unit in Memorial Village. $1600 a month. Do the math. That's money that could be spent on athletes. Hoping the building owners can help out with that and do better for the cause.
I am not sure if this is apples to apples as I don't fully understand how UND and 1883 collective are tied together but ..... a number of years ago I was involved in raising some money for the UND engineering department. We were told at that time that UND took 10% off the top of all donations that went through the UND foundation. Donations that went straight to the engineering department avoided that.

Well this is cool! Hope they start putting it to use right away (defensive line and LB)
Will be interesting to see how many sign on. Levels of giving - $50/month (new grad) , $125/month (1st team), $200/month (Natty).

I don’t have any ill will towards anyone who left the team, even if they decided to go to NDSU. The future is bright with coach Hutter and the girls he brought in.
Hell - I have ill will toward anybody that plays for NDSU, regardless of where they came from. It's how rivalries work.
It's not new. I got booed when I came out for warmups at NDSU well over an hour before the game back 40+ years ago. The students got there early to get better seats. Small number of people in the stands and they booed us all. I didn't take offense and appreciated that they cared enough boo me.

Whatever, y’all can believe whatever you want. Jocie doesn’t say more than 2 words ever and is the sweetest human being. UND failed her and the others. When nothing changes- it stays the same. You can thank the president and Chaves.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- the head coach was the cause of all of this. Had she been fired earlier, most of the 8 who left would have stayed.
But it’s all good, because they now see what a shitshow UND actually was and how the grass is GREENER- Other schools will utilize, value, and treat them so much better and not run them into the ground.
Oh AND all with added NIL- something UND cannot offer.Keep up with your pipe dream fantasy that this program will ever compete for the best players.
Why did you wait until your family member was done at UND to start posting here? You should look into posting on Bisonville and completely move on over.

34 minutes ago, BasketballKing said:Again, comic relief tonight. I think you should look into last season’s team wrecker.
I don't know anything about her but only what I was told. You appear to know more than you are willing to say so far. How about you tell us what you know and provide your sources and we go from there?
The fact that she is willing to go to play for her team's arch rival is a pretty good hint that she was never bought into her team last year.

LOL!!! That’s the funniest thing I’ve read all day! Love to know who your source was.
I'm sure you would love to know but I'm not in position to reveal that. Anyone that's ever played team sports had a teammate like that at some point. Not that hard to believe.

I can’t imagine people will cheer for Schiller from Grand Forks if they are UND fans but I expect she will be treated with sportsmanship when she is here. Schiller ended her relationship here at UND and for many here in Grand Forks going forth she knowingly chose to move onto NDSU. She knowingly did this to her former team and community of Grand Forks because she thought it would improve her college career and received monetary compensation but it was sticking her middle finger up to the people that supporter her and gave her opportunity to show her talent to market her skills else where. If she and her family needed change then she have moved on to another school that would have given her fresh start but not insult to her local community by letting there major rival put this in the face of community. It will be interesting how this plays out but I wouldn’t have done this there is enough pressure to succeed in college sports without putting added pressure from local community and now expectations of fans from Fargo her new school.
Every SU player has been booed in GF and the same for UND players in Fargo. It would happen even without her history.

Say what you will but many people will still cheer for Schiller when she comes and plays against UND next year.
It’s been said on here before but heard from good source that referred to her as a ‘team wrecker’.

if both stick and mr trey would give up the idea that they are nfl talent there is a league up north that they could've "grown" with (like warren moon)...and then try to come to the nfl....too late for the mouth breather but mr trey is probably only 24 but he would have stick his tail bt his legs and move to saskatoon or prince edward island...which he aint doing.
You wouldn’t go CFL either and give up $34M for first 4 years and $2M for 2025. Why would anyone do that?
