Already addressed this - I was thinking of the UNI game.

We’re again reduced to cheering against the Bison in order to salvage our own season. And yet, the loudest voices will scream that NDSU is a failure for losing the semifinal or national title game and proclaim UND as the true “state champion.” Regardless of what happens next in the playoffs, it’s now impossible to argue that UND will have had a more successful season than NDSU.

My bad, I was thinking of the UNI game.

OOF.

“…glorified scrimmage… Last time I saw USD, they were taking UND out behind the woodshed.

But I was told that UND’s season was much more successful than NDSU’’s will wind up being…

Send me a direct message and we’ll chat!

You did miss the order. The good news is, there will be another one coming up soon!

Well, they should have put 40 on the board…

2 sublimated replica jerseys for sale: White #15 ARCHIBALD size 56 $160 green #15 size 48 $155 Shipping not included, but I intend to be in Grand Forks in two weeks for the Bemidji State series and you might be able to save a few bucks then!

Knowing @Goon’s spelling issues, it’s usually, “anything less than a sweep is unexceptable.”

The silver brain buckets would look horribly out of place with an all green or all black hockey uniform.

The outlined Hawk is a significant improvement over the white blob. Still not saying much…

Silver pants would have been the chef’s kiss.

Remember when Byron Buxton was supposed to be the second coming of Ken Griffey, Jr.?

Struck out more times than Kyle Schwarber.

I think many of us saw this coming several years ago having seen Barry Melrose in the booth with his hand shaking. I loved Barry as a commentator and enjoyed his enthusiasm for college hockey. Parkinson’s Disease is awful and I for one will be praying for him.

OK, I’ll play along. Had North Dakota come up with a decent logo, fans would have been more likely to eventually embrace new gear. That obviously did not happen. Instead, 7 years later, we have grown adults buying $300-$350 authentic jerseys, promptly ripping off shoulder patches, and replacing them with Indian head logos or interlocking ND’s. It also doesn’t help when the coaching staff comes up with its own brand identity to further keep the official nickname on the back shelf. The biggest beneficiary of the Fighting Sioux nickname and logo more than a decade after its retirement would still seem to be the Chinese Communist Party. I bet there are easily 2,500-3,000+ $40-$50 China fakes in the stands at every home game. They’re literally everywhere. Anything else?

Fireworks, no. Mimosas, yes. Some freshman probably getting that third thing right about now…

Hmnnn…tempting, tempting.

I dunno…how far north are we talking here, like 5-7 miles or 20-25?

Not jersey related but we really don’t have a “swap meet” or “for sale” section other than for tickets. I need about 50 orders for another batch of keychains (see photo). $5 each + postage if I can get enough pre-orders!

I can already hear the demands for the NHL to fork over, er, “contribute” money, to keep the league going.

Because we had a 3rd grader who was considering going to UND but can’t because the meanies in suits disbanded the program?
