And let's not underestimate the benefits of playing a "team sport" such as hockey. Many studies have shown girls that play a sport growing up and thru HS are at a far less risk of pregnancy than those that don't. Studies have also shown HS student-athletes by and large outperform their non-athlete peers academically as well. This letter is overflowing with ignorance and arrogance. Pretty pathetic IMO.

.......now it's a party!

Just saw his last Twitter account post: #Natty

Per Goon cargo shorts and a Bud Light t-shirt are acceptable.

"Accepting".....guess that is defined differently by different people. I have "accepted" F-n Hawks is the new nickname but that doesn't mean like a lemming I'm automatically going to start chanting "Go Hawks" or buy a t-shirt that just has "Fighting Hawks" on it just because that is what some of you think is best for "healing" on this nickname issue. Making things miserable? Again that might be your take but my season ticket(s) renewal for next year (2016-2017) will have nothing to do with Fighting Hawks or Fighting Sioux but has everything to do with the University of North Dakota. I'm excited to head to MSP to watch UND play in the NCHC tournament this week and hopefully at the X the following week. My support of UND have never hinged on a nickname and that won't change even with the new nickname.

..........you run with that.

Well I do sit next to his brother.......so it is a possibility I'll hear for the first time.

I know right! I'm shocked it has not caught on either since it is such a cool nickname.

Let's make this very clear..........there is nothing more "douche'" than a pathetic generic politically correct nickname that is nothing more than an embarrassment to the great university I graduated from...and still support. I'm more pissed that "F-n Hawks" is something I have to deal with more so than having to deal without "Fighting Sioux". .........and for the record I have been a season ticket holder in multiple sports for years and have yet to hear anyone........ANYONE.......in the sections I sit in yell "Go Hawks" since the new nickname has been chosen.

Thanks for the lecture Dad..............can I at least now borrow the keys to the station wagon? .............and by the way "GO SIOUX"!

5th year in last 6 UND has accepted a bid to the CIT. #extendjones

UND's fault? Hardly........you said they exceeded preseason expectations!

Insider connections from a "football only" guy. ........well played.

........as compared to the lame cartoonish bird logo well be stuck with?

.......and BJ team this team has none. He has never had any. Terrible anology.

Great weekend of hockey upcoming. Really need UND to win Friday so that I can add the 1 pm Wild game Saturday to the docket.

#siouxhockeyrules

We seem to say this after the season has ended year after year..."Wait until next year". Wash...rinse...repeat.

It could be worse.......UND could be gearing up for the Big 10 tournament.

I'll take 2

4-2 Sioux

Surprised UND and BJ? Q has 38 at this point. Name one coach in the BSC in that same situation that would not make someone else beat them? .........and on a second thought don't answer that question.

Best game of the season by far for #4. #25 was really good. #28 stepped up with a really good overall game. Too much fancy garbage by the CBS line. They need to just go north to south. #26 took a hard shot off the hand with seconds left. Basically went straight down the tunnel after horn sounded.

Bottom line.......really tough to be a team that hits 14 3s.

Now it's a game 2-1
