Like I said before, this doesn't happen under Blais or Hak. Berry and his family know what kind of position they are in and anything they do will be under severe scrutiny, so why put yourself in a position like this? Why do people feel the need to go after Rob Port for doing his job? If this happened at Moo U, everyone on here would be up in arms.

I stated it in jest....

I am 100% speculating on it but it wouldn't surprise me if they did.

*sarcasm voice* Engelstad Foundation paid the money...

Something like this doesn't happen under Blais or Hak.

Why is that being ignorant? Of course they made money off of it. Look at all the merchandise that has flown off the shelf with this. Nobody trademarks something like this and gives it away for free, use your head…

Whatever you say but the people who know me on this site would say otherwise. I’d be happy to meet you or anyone at Judy’s and discuss this. I’d also be happy to discuss it with Berry.

I'll stand up to my comments any day of the week and take your money while I am at it. I can't help it that you get offended by words so easily.

well that part is true.

I understand reading is hard for some but I never used the word dumb. A lot of kids that are in college do not know how to wash clothes, does that make them dumb?

If you are not looking for a payment, why obtain the trademark? Why not let the University have it right away?

Especially when one state employee makes $450k already.

I don't think his daughter is smart enough to do this and then bring it to her dad to be used on merchandise.

I am surprised the gfhockey and the "good ol boys" didn't know about this....

You have to be kidding yourself if you think the Berry's are not making money off of this "Nodak" name.

The hockey program has fought tooth and nail to not have anything to do with the new nickname. As long as the hockey program was against the nickname the lemmings (people who hate the new nickname) were going to follow him blindly.

The only thing that he would be at fault for would be knocking boots with her.

What do you mean it will get worse? Berry is the savior of our hockey program and he cannot do anything wrong!

I find it funny that Port found this out but yet Brad Schlossman is silent on the matter.

It's too bad I can't read the article but yes its not good at all.

I agree with you about Nike coming back and how weird it is to see New Balance on a hockey jersey. However, it could be a different company who makes the jersey but Denver might have a deal with NB so they put their name/logo on them.

I don't doubt that it sells "poorly" compared to the old Fighting Sioux but according to a "white shirt" that I know who works there, they move a decent amount of product. I mean they have to order minimums and if they don't sell you would see that stuff on the clearance rack and whenever I go into Scheels, it doesn't seem like there is a lot on the clearance rack.

I wonder if the whole athletic department will change to a new company or will it be just hockey?

What in the heck are you babbling on about? Nothing you are saying makes any sense...

What’s getting old is people complaining about the nickname and the logo. It’s not changing, get over it. do you have sales figures? I’d imaging if they weren’t selling that stuff Scheels and the bookstore wouldn’t Be ordering it. I dont include the Ralph because they seem to do whatever they want. there’s a lot of people that buy the “new” North Dakota stuff. Just because it isn’t you doesn’t mean it’s not being bought.
