I believe Quinnipiac had several 24 year olds on their roster in the 2013 NCAA title game...

Ummm...I don't see where the community of Warroad said that AT ALL!

What was the Twitter post?

That's just to note the Bruins fans on the board.

Says who, John Boy? Perhaps we should look into changing the name of your beloved NDSU since we don't really know an actual Bison's opinion on being "honored," do we? This group of do-gooders had better head down to Red Mesa, AZ like ASAP and let the Navajo students there know how oppressed they are by referring to themselves as "Redskins."

Preach it Pastor, preach it! One just needs to look at this past season's men's baseball, women's softball, and men's basketball for examples of that. If a UND football season ends at 3-8 with the highlight being a win over NDSU and the Bison go 15-1 en route to a national title with their only loss being to North Dakota, you tell me who had the better season. It should be obvious to everyone.

That's weird, Cratter...I was able to update with your password too!

Yea, it's a bit wordy..."protests and specific large scale actions against the University..." was a phrase that caught my eye...

First name basis with him? Surely you know how to spell his last name then, LOL! Awesome that Matt Greene brought the Stanley Cup to UND. I said it before that I won't forget the sad look on his face after the 2005 NCAA title game loss to Denver. Kudos to Matt Greene for bringing the Stanley Cup to Grand Forks. Now THAT'S a "Sioux legend."

http://yworlds.com/2014/08/10/indian-mascots-illegal/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=indian-mascots-illegal It's almost the 15th of August...this should be interesting.

Good grief. From July 13th to THIS, Detroit? 2nd place behind the Royals? WTF?

Yes, that's correct (see my post above). However, both the NCAA and schools like Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin quickly REVISED their previous policies on Native American nicknames shortly after the fiasco involving Florida State and the uproar that caused. Obviously these Big 10 schools needed to act quickly in order to prevent a policy violation should a Florida State football match-up become a possibility in a football bowl game. Plus there's that ACC/Big 10 Challenge basketball thing again...

Minnesota's policy: http://www1.umn.edu/usenate/usenate/docs/120503aca_policies.pdf In short, Native American mascot names are hostile and abusive...unless the NCAA says they're actually not. Wisconsin's policy: http://www.secfac.wisc.edu/senate/2007/1001/1023a.pdf

Sicatoka, don't forget about the Aztecs of San Diego State! http://legacy.utsandiego.com/uniontrib/20050806/news_1s6mascots.html Oh, and the Utah Utes!

Parise's getting traded to the Red Wings?

I think the whole point being made here is that the University needs to speak up loud and clear on major issues like professional sports nicknames. If the NFL team in Washington changed its name by 4pm today, U of small m faculty, its students, and Representative McCollum herself could move onto less trivial issues tomorrow - like the ISIS atrocities going on in Iraq/Syria.

Big 10 Scheduling Department: "Minnesota, you're hosting Florida State in this year's Big 10/ACC Challenge." Minnesota: "Ummmm we're opposed to racist nicknames." Big 10 Scheduling Department: "No problem, we'll send Duke to Minneapolis instead." Problem solved.

Already been done back in 2008, Blackheart. I had to erase the greasy palm print you left on the cup while wearing that ridiculous Bruins jersey in 2004 when you had your picture taken with it.

I couldn't be prouder of "my" school for taking this stand. Of course, if that stand means we might not make a basketball tournament, I reserve the right to change my stance. Well said.

The University of North Dakota ISIS Horde kind of rolls off the tongue.

...oh, wait...

Oh, well, at least NDSU still has this: The "Hook 'em Bison" horns...

...oh, wait, it's all coming back to me now...

I like that (UND on 3) a lot better than this...I'm not sure where I've heard it before, but it's pretty catchy...
