Hawkster

It's been circularized here for a couple days. I can't remember who pitched it out for consideration, but it certainly has merit.

As I recall, Pat Miller suggested the name back in the day when he still posted here. He like the name because it was unique, had ND origins, and the logo could be drawn to be intimidating. Any nickname indigenous to our area will probably need explaining to the rest of the populous, unless you want something like Storm or Blizzard. Personally, I have no problem with "Wild Nokotas", although I am really warming up to the idea of being "The Fighting Spirit".

Regarding the "legal way to weasel out", I'd say the fine print gave KFGO the legal option of walking. You are splitting hairs here. The contract either said they had an option to get out of it or they didn't. If KFGO didn't have the option of terminating, then we best find a lawyer and sue (no pun intended). I do look for UND sports to end up at WDAY. It's pretty much a no brainer on that one.

I'm no expert on this, but the impression I got was that KFGO had an option on the last two years with UND and KFGO chose to walk away from it rather then exercise it. Definitely underhanded, but not illegal.

Kristo. He's been lucky for me in the past.

This is sad. 15 posts on the UND/USD basketball game thread, 253 posts on the UND//Minnesota hockey thread. I know hockey is the tail that wags the dog, but come on!

Malone.

Probably was looking at his VIAGRA bottle when he posted. He he.

Moved on the first time I played. Luck or skill? Maybe my luck and Kristo's skill?

What I can't figure out is why Fargo can always make money on their dome, but GF loses on Alerus. They using creative accounting or just better managers?

I'd say Gene Taylor is still standing in the way. I'm sure he still feels the sting from the slap Roger gave him by ending the series. I'd say once Taylor is gone there will be some interest down south. The way both teams are playing this year, I don't think you could give tickets away right now for a match up. Furthermore, I think it's bad PR for us to try to get anything pushed through the Legislature. Makes us look whiny.

Longer then any of us cares to think about. Great West will never work for post season. Zero chance of going anywhere

I'm going to just keep asking. Your guilt is showing by dodging it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You know, I asked this question before and you clammed up for the only time in your life. What the heck is your infatuation with UND sports and what makes you think you know anything about it? I won't ask again if you have a job, I've come to the conclusion you don't. I won't ask why you got banned from the NDSU site either, it's obvious.

I'd like to think that the score is true, but I doubt it. Looks like it got transposed, since we were down 18 with 3 minutes left.

Hey MPSBison, Two questions. Do you have anything like a JOB? You seem to have time 24 7 to post here. And secondly, what is your infatuation with telling us here at UND Sports how to run things? I have heard you got banned at the NDSU site and all I can say is "Three cheers for NDSU".

You are comparing a Sioux leader to one of the worlds worst tyrants.

That is not only unfair, but totally uncalled for. Anyone who sticks up for basic rights in this abusive issue will be portrayed in a negative light by certain people here. It grows old.

Game over 77-64 SMSU. I can't believe the way UND fell apart in the second half. 3 Mustangs in double figures. Seemed like we couldn't handle the height of DeMasi and Dale. Mustang coach is from LaMoure, maybe we should hire him.

56-41 Mustangs. Things really falling apart in second half.

Mocking people who support a change doesn't help anything. It further highlights the fallacy that the University of North Dakota is somehow committed to "honoring" the Sioux name. Obviously you are only pursuing your own interests and not the cultural interests of an autonomous nation.

Your blatantly racist comments are indeed proof of why the Lakota peoples are demanding you stop using the Sioux name. You are not honoring anything with your outbursts but rather are demeaning an entire culture. Yes, a name like "His Horse Is Thundar" is odd, but remember, we, the white people made them change their names from the historical language they once used. Yet another atrocity that was committed when that happened.
