A late night on the board...let's go Sioux!

I scored a similar goal last week in my men's C/D broomball leaugue. Unfortunately, I don't have the video to show it.

You know what, dagies? I had that exact same thought myself...

As classy as saying in an interview between periods that "good sportsmanship goes right out the window" when these teams play? Now THAT'S classy!

In a related story of equally "unbiased" opinion, I'm going to ask a die-hard Barack Obama supporter tomorrow night his impressions of inauguration day.

I don't remember specifics of the agreement, but I do recall the WCHA and CCHA each picking one Alaska school for admission to their respective conference.

You do realize, Goon, that NMU left the WCHA for the CCHA, right? Is there a hot rumor of the Wildcats wanting to return? I haven't heard it.

Down 2-0 mid-way thru the third, the Sioux showed plenty of heart tonight. The move by #29 with seconds left was spectacular. Ole! Ole ole ole! Ole! Way to come thru tonight, Sioux. Great work!

Did I really say 'immediately'? I guess I might have time for one lap dance drink at Mettler's after the game.

Left you a voice mail a few minutes ago. Hopefully you're still interested in purchasing as I'm still interested in selling!

Had a friend/wife combo back out of going to Mankato for Saturday's game. If you're interested in buying a pair ($50), please let me know. I'll be leaving Bloomington Saturday afternoon and coming back immediately after the game...if you're looking for carpool incentives, it's a possibility.

Wow. Two games into the season and already these types of predictions and comments are being made? It didn't take long, did it?

Yep. After 4-5 losses to finish the season, it'll be good luck at the Peach Bowl.

Oh here we go again...two games into the season and the "ABANDON SHIP" call has been made. Sound the alarm!

My condolences on getting married.

Apparently you haven't sat in the upper level where the primary concern is making sure both hands have a beer in them. There's nothing more fun for me than having to stand up and sit down 700 times during a hockey game not because the Sioux are putting dozens of pucks in the opponent's net, but because the entire section feels the need to drink a keg before the third period ends. Also, gotta love the Sioux fan tradition of walking around regardless of whether or not a puck is in play. You can always tell the fans from REA when they come to the Xcel Energy Center in March: They're the ones who can't comprehend an usher telling them to "wait for the whistle." Flame on!

Great article! Sounds like Nate really has made strides to turn his life around. Oh, except for that part where he was arrested three weeks ago for violating a restraining order.

I haven't had the opportunity to meet you, Bob, but I hope to soon. Best of luck to you and your family. I will keep Will in my prayers.

While I typically ignore anything that has the word "Democrat" in the title somewhere, this article seems pretty legit. Chris Porter can definitely help a team...good luck!

Much like the Grand Forks Central Redskins name lives forever in the minds of current students and alumni, so too will the Fighting Sioux nickname live on. Riiight. It'll be around for a few years, people will wear their Sioux jerseys, and then as time continues to march on, those who attend games will cheer for and support the athletes who wear the new logo and nickname. It will take time, but after a few years, only the old-timers will remember the Fighting Sioux nickname.

Since Doreen Yellow Bird is apparently a fan of a certain presidential candidate, let me propose the University of North Dakota Change. Yes, "change" we all can believe in and a nickname that is not offensive to anyone.

Admittedly, you never know what you'll get with those pick-ups. Detroit picked up Todd Bertuzzi two years ago and he was HORRIBLE for them in the playoffs. He goes packing to Anaheim last season and actually was somewhat productive. I almost puked, though, when I saw him holding the Stanley Cup. Also, for those folks who continue to talk about Detroit's first-round failures (Calgary, Edmonton, etc.). I believe in the Calgary series a few years ago, didn't Yzerman and Shanahan both break ankles diving to block shots? Hard to win with injuries. Not an excuse, but it'd be like saying the Avalanche choked against the Red Wings this year.

How ironic that Tribal leadership squelches the voices of the masses with respect to a vote on the nickname issue...then wants to be included in a group formed to come up with a new nickname. Ain't democracy grand?

Hasek is gone? Chelios is gone? Oh no! Their presence and play in the playoffs was KEY to Detroit winning the Stanley Cup. No Red Wings out of the first round and the Wild finishing higher in the post-season? Dude...put down the beer bong! Maybe if your beloved Wild would actually find a good pick-up at the deadline (Brad Stuart) as opposed to recycling garbage (Chris Simon), they might have a chance at going somewhere.

This symbol had NOTHING to do with the National Socialist Party until Adolf Hitler twisted it and it became an image associate with nothing BUT the Nazi party. Pleae, read some history on the swastika before thinking it was created around 1939. fourwindsboy, I'm assuming you're aware of Native association with the swastika, right?
