If we hang #8 I would bet LaDue, Stecher, Schmaltz are gone for sure. If we somehow come up short who really knows.

Holy sh**. Just read 4 pages of this garbage. What a waste of a thread. The chant is fine. If you are offended write a letter to somebody. Many worse chants out there. A person can't order a Happy Meal these days without getting offended. Just imagine a teenage goth girl saying, "I don't want to be happy." Direct your good intentions to something that matters.

Could be worse. We could be the SunDogs today. Happy to finally have this over.

Thanks man appreciate the support. You guys are so welcoming on here and treat everyone with such respect. Nobody gets put down for expressing their opinions regarding which nickname they like most. It is such a warm feeling to have so many people looking out for me during these dark times. My god people. Over your head too?

Reading sarcasm isn't something you do well I guess. Times are super tough in my household and would gladly take you up on the pond to wash up in, and that change jar just might have enough money in it to buy gifts for my two boys from Santa for Christmas.

They should have had 2 press releases already made. The results would have been known at midnight and the release should have gone out around 10am this morning along with a press conference. It really shouldn't be this difficult.

Or as others would call it...Rich People Problems...

62 FH 38 RR

Can't wait for this to be over and start arguing about what the logo should look like. Either way my sons will be getting new jersey's next year for Christmas as our Sioux gear is getting too small for them. Should have planned it out better!

I'm cool with either of them. Voted for Fighting Hawks in the first vote, and Roughriders in the 2nd. Didn't like Nodaks. There are many reasons to vote for each choice. FH- Keeps fighting in the name. Isn't controversial. Roughriders- Unique other than a local high school team. Let's be honest does any other college outside of Grand Forks care that we stole it? NO. It is a Grand Forks issue. Possibilities of a great unique nickname. Just hate being talked down upon when the reality is there is going to be 35% of the voters unhappy that Fighting Hawks is our new nickname with them saying that everyone is so stupid for choosing it.

Completely agree with this thread steering people towards Fighting Hawks. I'm fine with either, but the more people act like their opinion is more important than others and those that are voting for the Fighting Hawks are the "uninformed" you are digging your own grave. The arrogance of people on this forum is sad since we are all going for one team when this is all over.

It is actually very entertaining to read all the threads about vote this or vote that. Voted FH in first vote, RR in second, and could vote either way as the only two I can stand are remaining. Funny thing is the whole pushing of your favorite or athlete's favorite can push people away instead of bringing them into your corner. How about someone just makes a single thread of the positives and negatives of each possible winner. At the end of the day all the name calling will stop and we will need to rally around this change together.

Voted Roughriders to try get it into the final round with the Fighting Hawks who I voted for the 1st round. Can't stand the Nodaks, so this is a vote against that and will probably go back with the FH in the final round.

If the Fighting Hawks don't make the runoff I will pledge my support for Roughriders. Went back and forth and am actually turned off by the Herald pushing the NoDaks. That is great that members of the athletic community want NoDaks, but in all honesty their vote is no more important than ours.

Looking for $60 for the pair of tickets. Section 302 Row K Seats 21 & 22. Something came up and can't go. Wife works in Fargo and I work in Grand Forks so we can figure out something of an exchange. PM me if interested. I'll do my best to check once a day. Thanks guys!

I'm aware of that. What I am saying is that if a person or group of people were so confident that Roughriders would advance to the final 2 they could in theory vote for another nickname in order to try block the ones that are deemed unacceptable.

So let's assume that Roughriders will be 1 of the two that is in the final 2 for a vote. So 1 of the other 4 will join it in the final vote. Is there a risk of having too many people vote for Roughriders while not reaching 50% and having SunDogs be up against it in the finals. Is there a way to vote in a way to get the 2 most acceptable names in the final 2. For instance if a person wanted Roughriders, but could live with the Fighting Hawks it isn't unreasonable for them to vote for their 2nd choice to hurt the cause of the other 3 choices. Sorry for the confusing reply, but I do enjoy reading the boards even if I don't post often.

Beginning of the year will be rougher next year, but when we peak next year the team will have a higher ceiling than the team this year.

Hopefully someone will respond to this or text me. Don't have much access to the internet during the day to respond to ticket listings. Frustrating to see 4 tickets available for Saturday 40 bucks a piece when I click on it and see sold after getting excited. Guess it's just a matter of getting lucky when I get home and look.

Send me a text at 701 741 4258 . Need 2 for my parents this weekend. Doesn't matter where in the building, but need 2 together. Thanks! Brandon

I can't remember ever being this nervous watching a game on tv. Time for a gritty goal. I am very pleased with how we have played tonight.

Like I told my wife before the tourney we have a chance to exercise all of our demons. Wisconsin, Minnesota, and BC. Can't think of a better route to win number 8. Let's hope my perfect bracket on college hockey pickem holds true. ROLL TRIBE

Even if we lose this game Gothberg has proved he can steal a game. Someone needs to step up and bury one.

Miami is playing well. We have played well for stretches. The ice looks awful for these games. Thank God for an opportunity to win a game tomorrow with a chance to get in the tournament.
