If you stop replying...they will stop posting. THREAD ALREADY EXISTS IN NCAA NEWS FOR THIS!

Same for me...tried it a while back and nothing. Today...fixed. It's a miracle!

That black mark was wiped clean at the 2006 regional in Grand Forks. I'm all good.

Call me crazy but I have more fun being the guy in the middle of the hometown minions who is cheering for the OTHER team. Much more fun. If I was in Fargo, hell yea I'd go.

Agreed. Stick with one thread over in NCAA News.

Instead of pouting about it, why don't you come up with a witty sign and head out there on Saturday? Every former Sioux chomPs down bisoN burgers

I think the commish thought this would all go away...nobody notices stuff like this anyways. Cocaine, performance-enhancing drugs, suspensions, DWI's, murder charges...we just move on the following Sunday. Not this time. I bet Goodell ends up resigning over this as TMZ apparently had no problem getting ahold of this video.

So anything below being the reigning FCS champion is considered bush league now?

Worked!

Me too! Yay bacon! I think ESPN has worked hard to expand on Game Day's appeal. I get it, Ohio State vs Michigan (and other rivalries) are big games EVERY year so the novelty of having the Game Day set at some of those locations (Alabama vs LSU is another example) gets rather stale. Can you imagine the hoopla if Game Day ever took its set to someplace like Dickinson State or Carroll College?

I completely agree with that assessment.

I think this is going to get worse for Goodell before it gets better.

One slight correction...South Carolina was throttled by Texas A&M at HOME two weeks ago. Even more reason to remove them from the discussion of where to host the show this weekend.

Michael Irvin should be outraged. You don't hit a woman, you snort coke with them and pay them for sex at your secret location in Dallas!

I completely agree. I didn't need to watch the ISIS beheading videos to be outraged over Americans being killed. Everyone knew what happened in that elevator - now ESPN and others act like they thought Ray Rice was making balloon animals in there until they saw the video yesterday.

Just about spit orange juice all over my iphone when reading that line. Absolutely hilarious.

You're preaching to the choir, Oxbow6, you know that.

I know Oxbow6 is a big fan. I should have used my sarcasm alert because I was being facetious. Had I made that same comment, though, you would be asking what color Bison jersey will I wear on the drive to Fargo this coming Saturday morning. ?

Let me clarify what I wrote earlier regarding the death penalty. I do believe PSU's football program should have been put on ice for one or two years. However, once the NCAA simply decided to cripple its football program by 86'ing bowl games, decreasing scholarships, etc. is where I felt it was unfair to the current players. Yea, they were free to leave and go to another school (and quite a few did) but what about those kids who liked Penn State and wanted to stay there? Any player who stayed was punished...and they knew nothing. The NCAA decided to sever a main artery and let the program limp forward. Bill O'Brien did an admirable job keeping things together in his two years there and he's absolutely correct - the players who stayed deserved to be recognized by having their names put on the back of their jerseys. Nothing can take away or even slightly relieve the pain of the victims of these atrocities. Paterno's dead and Sandusky's rotting in a prison cell. But continuing to punish the players at Penn State does no good for anyone.

Burn the heretic! He's a witch!

I'll give gfhockey some credit...this is a great idea.

There are no easy answers - yes, I think PSU should have gotten the death penalty.

Nobody is saying that...but is it fair to tell the 21-going-on-22 year old senior who had no idea what was going on "no worries, you can transfer anywhere you want to without penalty" while you torpedo the program? And, let's be honest here, SMU isn't a valid comparison because players were involved in what was going on there.

Why not shut down the entire institution for two years?

Actually, it was 0-0.
