Football will NEVER be the #1 sport at UND, just live with that instead of holding onto the desperate hate filled jealousy. Football will not benefit by the demise of Hockey as you so pathetically exude.
Football can benefit by the success of the Hockey program... not its relegation.
and by the way the only chance in h e double hockey sticks of getting close to the B1G.... is in..... prepare yourself...
Hockey.
Attitudes like this guy is the root of fan base division. Embrace who we are, a hockey school. With a growing football program that can hope to succed on a smaller stage at some point. The best BB can ever hope for is to be a 64th team joke for 1st game upset. Anything further is mecer possible. Its just fact.
It is what it is. Deal with it or dont but you can't change it.
You accuse UND-FB-FAN of stoking fan base division and then follow up by insulting the football and basketball programs and say deal with it.
Your recent posts position you as the poster child for driving fan base division.

+1. Bubba just doesn't seem to get the right guys out of HS. Muss offered everyone who came along and yet made it work. Bubba's problem mystifies me.
Did you watch any of Mussman's teams? If he made it work he would still be the UND coach.

I wouldn't compare the Florida-Georgia rivalry to the UND spring game/scrimmage.
That's textbook apples to oranges.
Something somewhat comparable would be if UND played NDSU at US Bank Stadium or TCF Bank Stadium, which some have chattered about before. NDSU is playing at Target Field soon; would've been nice to have UND-NDSU in that setting.
It still sickens me that St.Peter would make this arrangement with NDSU before UND, his alma mater. Even further proof, I guess, that NDSU football has completely overtaken UND football.
I don't remember the details but I thought St. Peter tried to make something work with UND before NDSU but something got in the way. Not sure what.
I might be thinking of hockey. Anybody else have any details?

Just watched the highlights on UND Insider. Lots of Boltmann action. He looked good in what I saw. Any comments from those that were there?

He sure does. Over and over and over and over and over and over again.

Looks like Jaclyn at 6-1 is a better prospect than the 5-7 Alaina(her shooting stats were not good at Monmouth). Alaina appears to be more of a pass first shoot second guard. My only concern is did we have to offer both sisters to get one(similar to the Dailey sisters). Was UND the only Division 1 offer to Jaclyn since most of the other top seniors declare after their junior high school season?
Jaclyn had committed to Monmouth which is a D1 program.

Brew pulled in a sister act it appears for next year. Arnot sisters of Maranatha Academy in MN. One is at Monmouth and must be transferring here. The other just signed with them but must have been released.
saw that on Twitter. Don't know much about them.

I’ve heard Leach has improved a ton for whatever that’s worth.
The speed of the game takes time to get used to for many players, even kickers. The amount of time allotted from snap to kick is much shorter than HS and the rush is much more intense. At some point you adjust to the pace, your brain slows everything down and it becomes normal.

We get 2min
Jake Brandt praising Olson for sticking up for his teammate and taking the penalty. I say great move if you being macho is most important thing but stupid move if you want to win a hockey game and try to save your season.
We wouldn't be behind right now and maybe ahead if he plays it smarter.

I want a president that others are interested in but who would say - "thanks but I made a commitment here and they made a commitment to me and it wouldn't be right to leave after such a short time"

Just saw him in street clothes on the sideline. Too bad.
Bummer. I've been watching all game for him. Didn't notice him on the punt coverage.

Yeah, I live in TC, but with really young kids, and already traveling so much to the lake in the summer, I'm pretty much maxed out on driving. I try to make it to at least 1 game a season.
We are at a different place in our lives so it makes it easier.
Kids are out of the house or in college (at UND). Looking for things to do.

Wish I lived close enough to buy season tickets.
Not sure how close you live to GF but we live in the Twin Cities and have season tix. The tailgating and games make the drive worth it.

Saints were for sure the better team. MN got all the right breaks and still almost blew it.
My guess is your club is done for the year or you wouldn't feel the need to run down a team you don't like, especially when they beat your team twice this year in the regular season. Am I close?

When is the parade for this divisional playoff win. My God Vikings fans are acting like this was the greatest win ever. It was one playoff win. Win 2 more than celebrate. This win means nothing at this point except you get to play at least one more game.
You have to admit it was one of the greatest wins ever considering the circumstances. It's the first playoff game ever to end in regulation on a TD as time expired. That's worth something by itself.
And you are wrong - it is still a great win regardless of what happens from here on out.

Friends and family there so I picked it up from them during my trips there in the fall. Definitely not front runner band wagon years. Kerry Collins, billy Hobert and through the Brooks years before Bree's was around. Deuce was my first jersey.
Did you grow up in Minnesota or how did you become a vikes fan?
Growing up I never wanted to like the vikes. I couldn't find myself cheering for the same team as gopher fans did.
Bobby Hebert too? I can respect that.
Born and raised in ND until I was 2 1/2
and then we moved to MN.
I know Kurt Knoff a little bit so that helped cement things too although I was hooked before he played for the Vikes.

Sorry, how is a Packer fan supposed to know how many super bowls the Vikings have choked in? If they lose their fifth super bowl it will be the record.........
The Vikes were betting line underdogs in three of the four super bowls they lost. We can count the first one as a choke but in the other 3 the opponent was favored so that doesn't constitute choking for most reasonable people.
The first one in '69 is similar to GB losing to Denver as 11 point favorites in SB XXXII with a HOF QB at the helm. Both would be considered choke jobs.

Definitely never thought of them as ever being anywhere near a dynasty and I have accepted this loss. I was able to overcome it fairly fast just remembering that even if the saints never win the superbowl again, that they'll ALWAYS have at least 1 more ring than the Vikes. It's comforting knowing there were always be one fan base to pick on because I can't really argue with packer fans, cowboy fans, pat fans, or even bear fans. You guys should find some browns fans to argue with...I hear misery loves company. You'll have to make sure to remember that advice this time next week.
Did you spend some time living in LA/NO area or just another guy who love a front runner?
You earn a lot more respect from me for the former vs. the latter.

True or not true wasn't the point. Your comments were intended to explain how hockey is superior to other sports. If you don't see that your comments stoke fan base division I can't help you.
