  1. I'm honored to be one of the first to be eliminated from this game
  2. You expect your kicker to hit a 27 yard field goal. Going for a TD and getting stopped would be stupid in that situation. Even if the Vikings score, they have to go for 2 to even make it a 7 point game.
  3. Actions have consequences. Why is it the coaches fault for implementing those consequences?
  4. No, he didn't say that. He said the reason to buy Hawks gear is to support the school and the new name. Obviously, if you don't want to support the new name then don't buy F'n Hawks stuff and feel free to continue with your unnecessary rant. This just in... he said support the school and the name: Reading comprehension sucks today.
  5. Got the grey Fighting Hawks hoodie that Brad Schlossman had posted on twitter. Great hoodie, extremely comfortable and the F'n Hawks is subtle.
  6. Yeah, this 18-2-2 crap is the worst.
  7. Ladue
  8. This worked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjMMGtN30Rg
  9. Schmaltz gets on the board. 6 goals in 9 minutes
  10. 5-0 with 4:50 left in the first. Time for a new goalie
  11. Wow... 4-0 US
  12. Live Stream at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ibv4AlUeZI0
  13. Hammer will finish out the season doing the hockey games. Midco is bringing a guy from South Dakota in to do the bb broadcasts. Greg Enkers will now host the coaches show with Brad Berry, UND Sports Extra and his current NCHC show, Between the Boards.
  14. it's ok. They stay pretty wide on their main camera and have a massive scorebug in the top left. I believe announcers are just the radio feed. They do have replays. And it's 720p but I believe only a wide and slightly less wide camera. No corner or slash cameras for other angles.
  15. I've already donated more to UND since they became the Fighting Hawks than all of the other previous donations combined. None of it had to do with a nickname.
  16. Looks like Home Benches are on the far side and there are no penalty boxes on the close side.
  17. Here are the three geaux_sioux created with the proper green:
  18. You weren't kidding. I downloaded the green one to play around with it in Photoshop and it definitely opens up as the right green. Looks a lot better, but still pretty busy. Edit: It's because it was created in CMYK colors and not RGB. Hosting sites apparently can't distinguish that way. FYI, I made a couple changes and cleaned it up a little bit:
  19. Or they're 6-2 with wins over teams that have a combined 14 wins, including two over the 1-7 lions. The packers are 6-2 and have wins over teams with a combined 19 wins and have yet to play the lions.
  20. I ran into a handful of teachers at UND who would have been great educators had they been able to separate their political persuasion from their teachings. Unfortunately, they weren't great teachers BECAUSE they couldn't educate without personal opinion on a weekly basis.
  21. That's some fantastic information that has nothing to do with my post. I replied to a poster who said he wanted a team that was one of the top teams in the Big Sky year in and year out. Last time I checked, tournament wins, road OOC records, NCAA tournament games and the CIT don't make you a good or bad Big Sky Team. In case you missed this part of my post: That was what I was discussing. Edit: Way to follow through with the mention of NDSU. It wouldn't be a Darrel post without that. Now we just need FS4L to come in and say we should just go to NAIA, then Darrel to reply with a fire Jones, and Fetch to talk about getting an AHL hockey team named the Fighting Sioux and we've covered all our bases.
  22. His teams have finished in the top 3 of the Big Sky 2 out of the 3 years he has been a coach. I don't think he deserves to stick around after the year regardless of results, but his teams have performed well in conference most of the years he has been around. If someone finished with the following spot in their conference standings the last five years, would they be on the hot seat especially after losing a big senior class? 10th, 2nd, 3rd, 2nd, 3rd. And how about this for the post-season tournament the last 5 years: DNQ, 2nd, 3rd, 1st, 1st. Again, that's with losing a big senior class prior to last year.
  23. You clearly don't have any experience running two sporting events in the essentially the same building back to back. As someone who does, I can say it is not easy. Who are these magical workers that are allowed to leave late in the second half? It surely isn't the events staff, as they need to be there for the whole game. The game is on Bigsky TV which means there is an in-house video crew. Are those people supposed to leave during the second half? What happens if the game has 40 fouls in each half? What if it goes to overtime? Even if it doesn't is it a good idea to have people work 3-5 for pregame, then 5-7 for the game, then 7-10:30 for hockey without any breaks? Let's leave the scheduling to the people who do it for a living.
  24. Due to the Root sports/Big Sky contract conference games can't be on FCS.
  25. Just a quick tidbit about why the camera guy was shooting so wide last night... many schools without the budget of UND use the wide game cam with the score bug superimposed as their coaches feed. It's what the coaches record, both home and away to review following the game. CC is one of those teams, mainly because of the low quality of the World Arena. The arena still runs SD via a Tricaster switcher, which is what many high schools use. Unfortunately, it doesn't have multiple outputs including the ability to superimpose a scorebug on a separate output. That's why you see the scorebug on the in-arena scoreboard as well. They're pulling the "CC" feed and putting it on the board.
