Hard to believe.

His close personal friendship with Myles Brand.

Be careful about what you wish for.

I wonder if you'll catch your limit?

Well, at least the fish were biting. It'd be a shame to go through all that effort and not catch anything.

You speak the truth.

Just like clockwork, buckysieve.

According this article in Sunday's Boston Globe, Phil Kessel says that he hasn't ruled out signing with the Bruins.

Although I usually don't pay much attention to GPL, I see quite a few Gopher fans in that particular thread who have realistic expectations about next season. Thus, I think you're just...

It is possible to like Hennen, usually agree with his politics and disagree strongly with him on this particular issue.

No. As far as I can tell, his point is that Canada has bad weather, unreliable electricity and no law enforcement.

Scott Hennen, host of WDAY's Hot Talk program, weighs in on Joe Chapman's behalf with this blog. UND faculty member Tom Petros posted a response to Scott's blog here.

Just send me a Publisher's Clearing House check and we're good.

Here's the Prpich quote from the June 2006 Sioux Illustrated. He was asked what he considered his top five "agitator moments."

The 15,000 seat requirement is for DI-A, not DI-AA, which is where UND is headed in football. Somone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Sorry, but I don't remember that much hype surrounding Bayda. As I recall, while he was one of UND's top recruits and expected to be good, his 40-point freshman season was something of a surprise. UND's championship season that year was considered a surprise.

By your definition, "the truth" amounts to differences in semantics. So why the vehement denials from Chapman and company? Why doesn't the AG's office simply review the tape or transcript of Chapman's depostion and -- if wrong -- issue a statement saying that it "mischaracterized" Chapman's "request" as a "demand." If "the truth" was on Chapman's side, why wouldn't the AG's office say so?

That's certainly another factor to consider for next season. Sometimes an incoming freshman will play much better than expected. Remember Ryan Bayda and his contribution to UND's national championship in 2000?

I'll vouch for that!

Those things don't materialize out of thin air. And given Chapman's obvious sensitivity about his "demands," it would be rather foolish to rush into providing the "requests" while insisting that they weren't "demands."

Me either. If I had Chapman's job and someone asked me what it would take to keep me at NDSU, I'd certainly consider asking for more pay and better housing, not to mention a fancy car. So why are Chapman and company going out of their way to call the AG a liar about something that we both agree should be no big deal?

So why hasn't the AG's office said so? Does the AG's office normally go out of its way to attribute false statements to people of Chapman's stature? Is it possible that maybe the AG's office has a tape or a transcript of the interview with Chapman?

Hey, NanoB, nice avatar using the new NDSU logo. But it sort of reminds me of something else... Fortunately, I read the AP story in today's Herald which filled me in on the thinking behind the new logo: Mission accomplished!

Spoken like a jack-booted state trooper.
