  1. He did a jump pass instead of planting his feet. It still went 40 yards, but you gotta set.
  2. Great call! And that throw is exhibit a as to why Boltmann isn't the QB
  3. Got it working on watch big sky Note: likely not a und issue with pluto because it's on watch big sky
  4. Pluto is supposed to be 455 but it's erroring out
  5. Let's get this party started! Go UND. Also, some MSU news:
  6. Build it and they will come. So many cities throughout the world have seen that making downtown attractive again will draw people. Good for GF to get on board.
  7. The NCHC needs to schedule more games against Atlantic Hockey. Head to head, the NCHC is even with the B10 and Hockey East, but schools from those conferences have played AHA teams 9 and 8 games respectively. 9 of B10s 20 wins are against AHA teams and HE is 2-4-2 vs the bottom league.
  8. I guess I gotta say 72-2 UND so I can be on @Stockdamhockey's team!
  9. Yeah, because the apathy of fans is exactly the same as the feelings of players.
  10. It's just so difficult to even have any hope of a win today. This team has crapped the bed so many times in big games when it counts, that to get your hopes up for a win will just leave you crushed. I'll be watching and hoping for a win but not really expecting one. And that's not how a fanbase should be.
  11. I think the biggest issue is your #3. He is constantly injured. He was on MVP pace when they won the Super Bowl, but as we saw, a very average QB playing a bit out of his mind was able to lead that team. I think when Wentz is asked to lead the team when it's not the perfect setup, he has had some trouble with that. And his injuries probably play a big role.
  12. The problem with any minor league team is that they play a majority of their games Thursday - Sunday. Unless they're heavy on former local players who have tons of followers, they'll be going head-to-head against UND hockey. Yeah, it's more family friendly price-wise to go to these games vs the Ralph, but what's the major draw vs high school teams?
  13. May have posted this before, but the hockey team at Cheyenne High School in Colorado Springs has been using the geometric logo for years.
  14. I love it when adults dislike something that's not even intended for them. Mike, like every mascot, is for the kids. That bio isn't written for the salty adults in the room, it's for the kids who want to learn more about Mike.
  15. Embarrassing for whomever "Siouxfan" is on that board. Fortunately, we don't have anyone that crazy over here
  16. Here in Germany, I went to a game last week with my Sioux jersey on and was asked about the Notre Dame sigh-ux. UND isn't top tier and even with a deep run into the Final Four in basketball still won't be a household name, or barely recognizable. Although, the f'n hawks logo sure stands out among other logos when displayed in a bracket.
  17. Markstrom is expected to be back this weekend. If he isn't, the Canucks play back-to-back on Saturday/Sunday. He could get in on Saturday vs the struggling Devils.
  18. What do you expect from jumbo when he posts an article? If it's a complete mess, he deserves criticism. Fortunately, it never is. The same can't be said about Goon, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't hold him to a standard that involves getting the names of players or teams right on a consistent basis.
  19. I didn't mention my credentials until someone said I was likely jealous of Eric's access to the press box. So if you want arrogance, I can go there with tales of my press access to collegiate and professional sports in multiple states and Europe. I have already contacted UND, but as I'm sure you know, that's not a precursor to disagreeing with something on Siouxsports. Is it too much to ask that someone who covers a team and sport we love actually know how to write?
  20. To be clear, I'm attacking his content not him as a person. I've met Goon and his family and they're nice people. I just expect UND hockey to have a standard of quality when it comes to press access. I have no problem with Seamore Sports and their coverage. I actually appreciate it.
  21. Everyone can start a blog for all I care. I had a NASCAR blog from 2004-2006. Dale Jarrett was the best. But that doesn't mean I deserved a credential to races. There are thousands, if not millions, of blogs by people that can't write. They can have a blog all they want, but there needs to be a standard of quality when it comes to access.
  22. Having sat in the press box at the Ralph and 5 other NCHC schools, the first four frozen faceoffs and been in the locker rooms of the Chicago frozen four, I don't have a hint of jealousy. I do have issue with a fan who starts a blog to "cover" their favorite team despite barely having a grasp of the English language.
  23. What, Adam Schill getting a shutout vs the Canisius isn't good enough writing? 3 grammatical issues with this tweet from our resident 8th grade "journalist."
