Big A HG

OK, I'll admit I'm wrong on the logistics, assuming you are right. My opinion is still the same. Whether it's UND, WDAZ, or whomever, why continue to let this issue pass by? It's like they are counting on HDTV as just a fad that will go away and everyone will return to SD programming. Won't happen. At some point, a switch needs to be made. I know money is a big issue, but there has to be some way to fund something like this to make it feasible instead of letting the world pass UND by. Just a thought...

I just don't understand what WDAZ is waiting for in terms of HD across the board. I know it's not cheap, but it's not like HD is a passing fad that's going to go away anytime soon. HD is the present and future...time to get with the times. Maybe they can't fund anything because they don't have viewers because no one wants to watch their SD broadcasts? Just a thought...

I think Dean got suckered more into taking the softer, skillful talent unlike in 2009-10. They played with no grit and little physicality. A couple years ago, they would fly around the ice and match up with anyone physically, which took a toll on the other team. This year, it was all trying to be too pretty and cherry pick your chances. Didn't work. Part coaching, part talent selection.

I'll spare you.

It's official. The Bismarck Bobcats are much better than the University of Vermont Catamounts. The Red Stars just beat Vermont 6-1.

Hahaha...the problem is, I agree with you.

I'm not saying you're wrong, because I too think he will go MJ....but, I thought there was an article from a year or two back saying his dad was hoping he'd play college and that it was a good chance he would go that route. His dad played college (and NBA) basketball, so maybe he can convince him of the upside there is to college. Just a thought...

Mike Commodore - Red Wings Others like: Bochenski, Finley, Vande Velde, and Matt Jones have been up-and-down. Landon Wilson, Ryan Bayda,and Ryan Johnson have all had NHL experience but are no longer on any active rosters for any league (unofficially retired I guess you could say).

I wouldn't worry too much about Campbell. He was the best goalie in the tournament last year in this event and was in the U18 tournament 2 years ago as well.

That's why I don't want NDSU to get hockey. We'd beat them darn near every time we played, but we won't win 'em all. And when that day comes that NDSU beats UND at hockey, you can only imagine the words coming out of Fargo. Dear Lord...

I think our 05-06 team could beat an AHL team on any given night. I doubt they'd be real successful on a regular basis, but that team was loaded. The top end talent is better than your average AHL team, but the bottom tier of UND's team isn't as deep as your average AHL team. I think it equals out.

That's always one of my favorites when someone says that the #1 college football team could hang with the worst NFL team. The worst guys on the worst NFL team were some of the best NCAA football players when they played. It wouldn't even be close.

Whether you look Tebow or not, and coming from a guy who doesn't really care much for Saturday Night Live, you have to admit this is pretty funny.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ6vat1DIRI

I was at the game thanks to a fellow member. From what I heard from numerous people was that Bismarck essentially played the game of the year by their standards. They are a darn good NAHL team, but they stepped it up and matched the speed and play of the Russians. It was a great game in a packed house and the fans were loud. It was a lot of fun.

Don't put Tim Tebow's arm in the same category as Michael Vick. Vick isn't the greatest passer from an accuracy and decision-making standpoint, but the guy can throw a football. I bet Vick can throw it as far as anyone in the league right now.

No Tebow comments yet today?

I heard they only fill it one quarter full...just like how Tebow only plays one quarter.

I know Illinois has been rumored in the past, but it was just speculation. Now, there is a potential donor involved and staff within the university are talking about it. It'll be interesting to see where this leads now. UAH isn't quite dead, but who knows what their future really holds. Penn State makes up for them. Bowling Green is hanging around, but for how long. We need someone to replace them. Any sort of net gain is a huge bonus, especially in today's economy.

You don't have to put the same symbols in an ND version. Just the idea of putting subtle symbols in the logo was the idea.

Just saw on Twitter today that Jimmy John's founder is considering ponying up to get Illinois some D1 hockey. That would add another Big Ten to the mix. USCollegeHockey was adament about their initial claims of PSU adding hockey back when it was first announced. I think it'd be awesome if they could, even though it's a B1G school. This whole conference reallignment may be working itself out in a good way afterall. Penn State coming for sure Maybe Moorhead State Maybe Illinois USCollegeHockey is not claiming that Illinois WILL add hockey, rather that they MAY. Thoughts?

Some of the jerseys did go quite high today. I know of a couple of the buyers, but don't know them personally.

This is what coaches go through. They get too much credit for winning and too much credit for losing. Maybe Tim should be the head coach of the Broncos? Did Tim smooth talk Marion into fumbling? Did Tim tell Marion to go out of bounds? Did Tebow's encouragement make Nick Novak miss two FG's...or make Norv Turner call stupid plays in the red zone that prevented them from scoring TD's? Did Tim make sure Matt Cassel got hurt, right when the Chiefs were playing some of their better football this year? How about Nick Folk and his two missed FG's? I'm sure there's more than that too...the Broncos have been awfully lucky to even give Tebow a chance to come back at the end. Why can't he inspire the offense to do more in the first 3 and a half quarters? I give him credit for his comebacks, no doubt it's amazing, but why does it take so long?

I'm not mad at Tebow, I'm mad at every person in the national media crediting Tebow for everything when clearly the team surrounding him has stepped up huge. Tim is a good guy with a big heart. I just am not crediting him for things he doesn't participate in.

Which of the symbols are you referring to? And yes, the women's team will sport a new home white jersey in the coming weeks, made by Gemini just like their current jerseys. They will keep their current green jerseys and ditch the black jerseys for the remainder of the year.
