Thanks for posting, I don't think we should be big favorites either. We need to prove we can beat quality teams.

I admit, it is difficult keeping up with all of the conspiracy theories.

A 'small sampling size of a large family' is a huge jump to 'determining the 10,000+ people voted for FH' (too lazy to lookup exact numbers). Your last question is just a set up question based on a false assumption that it can only be one or the other, so I won't waste time answering it...but then again these people could be really, really dumb (I couldn't resist)

I also thought noticed this. He can "take sides"... as long as it's mine.

Show me proof, not conjecture If you believe the fake FH logo determined which logo won, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. (See, I can do it too )

I would give anything to insert Norsemen, Roughnecks, Nokota, and many more in place of our choices... As crazy as this sounds (even to me), we should have almost let the committee pick the name so that they had to adhere to their rules of being specific to North Dakota and unique. I really want to hear what each member voted and how in the world Fighting Hawks fits the criteria for UND that they(the committee) created. It really baffles me.

But let's just be honest and say you pulled that 50% number out of your butt. I'm voting for Riders but inventing statistics does nothing for me.

Voted Nodaks first two times, Riders this time.

Same here besides the not planning on voting part. Voting Roughriders.

Which step would the 'draw-your-own-logo' & run-offs be in?

Ah, yes you are correct. I win!

Did you guys know that DMX once spent some time in North Dakota? He drew inspiration for this song from it's connection to North Dakota's history

Dang, was going to be a smarta$$ and say Alaska but then I read 'continental' If I had to guess I'd say Denver or Co Springs? Unless there was some regional in CA or something. The '99 FF was in Anaheim but obviously we didn't play in that one.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe Goehring, St. Peter and one other person had 'no nickname' as their first option but were outvoted by others.

I'd agree with that ratio, but of course it'll be because there's nothing to do in Grand Forks...

Never change siouxsports.com... never change

It has been remodeled and named 'The Linq'. It's nothing special.

I'd start looking along University Avenue.

That's a good point. There is a TON of lag time to plan the trip. I'll revisit this in 2 years when we're working on national championship #10 to see what people's thoughts are then

It seems like a neat looking arena. Obviously it'd be nice to have seats where that wall is but seems pretty nice to me. And do people think this will be a tough ticket? It's about the size of Omaha's new Baxter Arena and is a plane ride for the majority of both fanbases in order to see one single game(rather than a series). I'm not sure if I believe it'll be as hard a ticket as some are saying...but then again I could be wrong about all this.

Yup, A Frozen Four at the new NHL arena in Vegas would make a killing.

Agreed combining two of my favorite things: UND Hockey and Vegas. I try to convince my friends to get engaged just so I can go to Vegas for a bachelor party. Now only a short 3 year wait until this game!
