Big A HG

Scary, isn't it?

There, I deleted the evidence..

Using myself as an example, I will respectfully disagree. Growing up in Wisconsin, I heard of the Sioux (the Native Americans, not the school nickname), but that's about all I knew about them. I would bet that that is the case for virtually everywhere else that doesn't live in the northern plains. After coming here, I learned a fair bit about the tribes and some of the unique history and culture they present. If we were never the Sioux nickname, I'm not sure I could say the same, since our nickname is the reason I'm somewhat educated about them.

Aren't the Native American programs at UND state or federal required? Or is it just the free tuition, free books, free everything? I'm pretty sure UND has no control over one or both of those, but I could be wrong. So if I'm correct, there's not much UND could do in the way of cutting programs or scholarships.

Does this mean there is hope?

But, over the course of a winter, there are far fewer of the drastically below freezing days than the slightly warmer ones.

Yeah, that was pretty thick sarcasm....not gonna lie Thanks for the complement. I actually made each of those jerseys myself, then just put them in a gif. I made all the jerseys in my sig as well.

Right, I agree. I love my 1997 truck I drive as well. I would never trade it for a 2009. It's just a big scam.

Let's not forget the audio aspect of HDTV as well. HD has better audio and will actually broadcast in 5.1 surround sound. SD won't give you this. If you don't have a home theatre system you won't notice a difference in that regard, but the capability is there nonetheless. On another visual aspect, HD gives you a wider view as well, allowing you to see more of what you are watching. I don't even care what DaveK thinks, this is just more of a reference for those that may be currently interested in upgrading their TV experience. There really is no comparison. And to be honest, giant SD tv's blow. I'd rather watch TV on a 30 inch SDTV than a 48 inch SDTV.

Good for you *thumbs up*

You couldn't be further from the truth. Oh well, I'm sorry you can't tell the difference, you're really missing out.

I'm not sure that made sense...? So, can you or can't you tell the difference. Maybe I'm just reading what you said wrong.

It's impossible not to tell a difference. So if you "think" you've seen hockey on an HDTV, on an HD channel, by someone who told you that's what it is, you've been fooled.

For a game this year, I went and sat with my boss. I heard comments the whole game from people in all directions about LaPoint. One really sticks out where this woman said she skates like a monkey. Where I work we talk hockey quite a bit when we're not busy and everyone rips on him in those discussions as well. Then, add in SS.com comments and it adds up. Nick Mattson will be the next on the list, IMO.

Twas a joke. I never predicted the Sioux to start like that either, which was the surprise. Also, where'd all the love for LaPoint come from all of a sudden? His whole career here before he hurts his ankle no one said anything good about him. Now, it sounds like he was an All-American. I like LaPoint, but before he got hurt I recall being one of about 3 people to actually like his play.

Barry Sanders never played at Ford Field

Duncan was a huge loss. Also, it's hard to replace seniors with freshmen, even if the freshmen might be very good. We'll see. I hope I'm wrong.

I love VV, but I think a few of our members are putting a bit too much stock in him. Not sure why, but I don't see as much in our returning players as some others do. I'm not saying we'll be bad, or even mediocre, but I don't think we'll be the team to beat unless our freshman come in and dominate.

It'll be a hoot if it comes to this:

The Hjelle he is....

Ian Kidd wants to go to Detroit too

I don't discount what Lee did if it's true, but Cherry is a d-bag to the max. If it ain't Canadian, it ain't good. He's just a loud-mouth know-it-all that likes to hear his own voice (just like me ). He should learn to dress and act with some more class. A lot of his stuff he says is actually pretty true and he says stuff no one else has the guts to say, but a lot of the stuff he says is just dumb and immature as well.

I bid adieu Mr. Stalock.

Nick Mattson. Everyone is expecting him to come in and be a world-beater. Sorry, doesn't work that way.
