Big A HG

Thanks

I liked how the Sioux played with a ton of speed. The freshman class was pretty solid for the most part. Sweeney still hasn't updated his gameday wardrobe.

Just to correct on you Brady's INT's. Only one of them was a real bad break, and that was the ball batted at the line of scrimmage. Two of the others were good, clean picks. The other one that bounced off hands was poorly thrown and off-target. The intended receiver still managed to get his paws on it, but deflected it in the air unintentionally. I'd put that one on Brady as well. It's funny, when Brady was winning Super Bowls, he actually wasn't that great of a QB (Mark Sanchez-esque), but he won. Then he became one of the best QB's in the league, and hasn't won jack since.

Can I pick Lamoureux every game? He's always good for a penalty. I pick Mario in round 1.

The men have made some tweaks to their 2011-12 jerseys. I mentioned what I know on my Sioux Jersey blog and included a mock-up of what the jerseys will potentially look like: http://sioux-jersey....2-Season/208965

The word "Sioux" by itself isn't owned by UND. "The Sioux", "Fighting Sioux", "North Dakota", "UND", "The University of North Dakota" are though. I think you would be safe with anything you want to produce that has "SiouxSports" on it.

Bump

I'm not too confident about the Packers playing the Bears in Chicago. The Packers pass rush hasn't exactly been very good, which has allowed Newton and Brees too much time to pick apart a depleted secondary...hence the reason the Saints and Panthers both passed for over 400 so far. It's about the pass rush. Yes, Carimi is injured now, and the Bears o-line was already bad, but both the Saints and Panthers effectively countered the Packers rush. The Packers will get to Cutler a few times, but I think the Bears are going to come out blazing thanks to last year. The Packers offense was a bit sluggish against the Panthers as well. If they balance the attack with more running, I see more success for Green Bay. The Pack has always struggled against Chicago's Tampa-2 Zone defense, so if the run game is working good it will open up that passing more. That was something that was missing until the playoffs last year, so the Bears just sat back in coverage knowing Brandon Jackson couldn't do anything. Now with Starks running great and Grant back to boot, it will be a stiffer challenge. 27-23 Bears

Why is that so shocking? The Lions finished ahead of the Vikes last year without Stafford most of the time anyways. With him for a full season, and I'd be shocked if the Lions didn't finish ahead of the Queens.

I think it's exactly that with Chay. When you are undrafted, you jump on what you get because you may not get another offer like that. If you decide to wait, that team that initially offered may use that roster spot for someone else. Also, Minnesota is still in [relatively] close proximity. Very few guys go undrafted that know they will ultimately be wanted by a lot of teams once they are a free agent.

It's a bit early to tell, but I think UND and Miami will form a nice rivalry. I think the Redhawks see themselves as and up-and-coming version of us. They play a lot like we do and their coach Enrico Blasi and the university have strived to make them a perennial contender. I'm not so sure that our fanbase will see it as a rivalry team right away, but I think their tenacity that they will show when playing us will spark something between the teams that may grow bigger in the long-term.

I see the Saints as a 10-6 team and the Packers at an 11-5 team. Where that puts them in the playoffs, I'm not sure. I actually had the 11-5 prediction before today's game, and had predicted the Pack to lose, so I guess you could bump that up to 12-4, but that's a lot of wins. The Packers will lose a couple to some good teams, and a couple to some not so good teams...it just happens. The Packers didn't seem to have a sense of urgency or a lot of energy on defense. They got a bit complacent, and Brees almost made them pay. If Tramon Williams is out for a length of time, it will be tough for the Packers. I'm just glad this one is over and the Packers came out with a W.

Sorry bud.

Don't be so sure about that word.

What's a dickweed? This is the only thing I could find:

Go Pack Go or should I say, Geaux Pack Geaux?

#28 was Ryan's number yes, but he didn't play in a true "game". Yes, he played in an exhibition, but he techincally never "played" despite that because it wasn't an official game.

One last bump before I place the order. If you are interested let me know by Wednesday! Thanks siouxjersey@gmail.com

If Notre Dame is looking to form a new conference with eastern powers, and they succeed in doing so, the NCHC will have a big struggle with them to gain any national TV exposure. North Dakota is the biggest college hockey name in the NCHC, and Miami (OH) is the biggest national brand name in the NCHC (when you consider all sports). That'd be going up against some big time names in Notre Dame, BC, etc. One way it could work together is if a network decided to do an early eastern game with a later western game.

I'm still taking orders if you're interested. Let me know! siouxjersey@gmail.com

Does this mean we get Gregoire, Genoway, Frattin, etc. back?

Those Global Warming fools have been debunked a long time ago. Anyone who believes in their nonsense buys into it for reasons other than fact. Think about this. When "scientists" first started hypothesizing these global warming theories, they began to receive large government grants to continue their work. Because of these grants, more scientists jumped on board. Any scientist who doesn't, misses out on these large sums of money, hence the reason so many jumped on board. Luckily, there are enough researches with a conscience to debunk and discredit the fools who are after the almighty dollar. In the end, it's all about the benjamins. Look how much money some of these fools, like the "expert" Al Gore, have made? You can hardly blame some of them.

I agree with the above poster. Cepis was quite the actor, but when he wanted to bring it, he could. He brought quite the spark to a dead Gophers team while there.
