Hey. downvote for you!

Oral Roberts being a member of the Summit back when UND was exploring conference options certainly saved a few administrator types from being exposed and some untruths to be told without fear of being found out.

Compared to?

Well they have had the benefit of using Scheels Arena the last 2 season which prevented them and the Force from playing in town on the same evening.

If someone was truly Pro UND and Anti NDSU wouldn't it be in UND's best interests to have Bresciani stay on at NDSU and get steamrolled in Bismarck during the legislative session or does he take the whole NDUS down with him?

It didn't help that Alabama chose to end one of the greatest rituals in College Football this year. I always looked forward to the Running of the Gumps as a sign that College Football was just around the corner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrMI7z1toz0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoTbRPjcmUI http://image.nola.com/home/nola-media/width620/img/lsu_impact/photo/18510075-mmmain.jpg So looked forward to the sweaty hicks carrying all kinds of paraphernalia the length of the field! Christopher Walsh ?@WritingWalsh 28m28 minutes ago The Running of the Gumps is officially no more. Alabama gave out wristbands for the Fan Day autograph session. It's the end of an era. I feel cheated. Although Nick Saban's look of utter disgust and disdain for his fan base is still in tact!

Nah. Little logo on the sleeve won't get much reaction.

Any chance they can add another half hour to the KVLY Pre-game show!

Even when Jan has success, she still wants Marcia's approval and acknowledgement.

I bought 2. One to sh!t on and the other to cover it up with.

Not too mention the thousands....err, hundreds....err, tens of dollars that the owner had re-invested into that place. it is sad though. I used to partake of a few beverages and occasional lunch at the Turf and had a friend who used to live above the place. People have lost their jobs and for some they have lost their place to live and belongings.

This thread has a Mariucci gophery aroma of arrogance to it.

Maybe they can compromise and put the new logo on the back tag of the penalty box attendant.

Decent burgers. They do have the best Wings in town! Blackened Wings are spectacular.

Hi Ho. Sickies JL is in top 5.

2nd best burger in Fargo.

Police could kill blacks(justifiably and unjustifiably) at the current pace for the next 40 years and it won't equal the number of blacks unjustifiably killed by blacks in 2015.

No real nice way to put it but Erich Longie is a fu(!ing idiot...always has been.

And I don't believe he was there that night and had seen and heard the UND reaction.

Who knows. Maybe Bird shirts will be the next big thing? http://www.themountain.com/cat-tees/

Umm. cool cartoon and all but you are being a little disingenuos

This was fantastic! From Tom Isern Come Wednesday the state board of higher education will have a special meeting to discuss contracts for university presidents. There are conspirators at work--a faction that is not forthright enough to operate in the open, but not clever enough to keep its intrigues secret. Its aim is to depose the competent and successful president of North Dakota State University, Dr. Dean Bresciani. This may be a puzzlement to those who pay attention to affairs at NDSU. All indicators of performance, for the institution and its president, are positive. Without doubt, the university is under sound management. A formal evaluation of President Bresciani by the chancellor earlier this month said so, conclusively. So what’s the beef? The beef is too much success. In the twenty-first century, NDSU has broken away from the pack. It has thrown off the colonial status that long characterized enterprises on the northern plains and has dared to compete nationally and internationally. The numbers are just too darn good. NDSU’s success has produced a classic case of the tall poppy syndrome. The tallest poppy has to be cut down. As soon as the current chancellor arrived on the scene, interested parties sought him out to tell him, you have to fire Bresciani. They are short poppies. They don’t like shade. They can’t come up with any reasons for their demands based on performance, and so they say, Bresciani is too big for his britches. He’s not a team player. Which is to say, he makes the rest of us look bad. There is, in fact, a lack of good team play in the university system. In the current round of budget cuts, NDSU is an island of calm. Under Bresciani’s leadership, NDSU made its financial adjustments years ago, situating it well to deal with the present exigency. Moreover, NDSU has made difficult decisions in a consultative manner, while going about other business effectively. This, it would seem, is all laudable, and should be held up as an example. Instead, the president is criticized for not inflicting unnecessary destruction and chaos. This is to say, he cares about the university, and tries to do what is best for it, rather than issuing inflammatory declamations and scoring political points. This is team play at its best. The Lord loves a good point guard. The conspirators, however, do not. They egg on the chancellor, they badger the board members. They say, you have to show you are strong, cut down that tall poppy. If they succeed, it will not be a show of strength. It will be a show of weakness. Strong leaders like strong leaders. They are not threatened by a tall poppy. Instead, they reach for the sun themselves. Pretty soon you have a whole garden full of tall poppies. And that, my friends, is how you build a great university system. I have heard he did this with no knee pads and didn't even come up for air!

Same year possibly, different seasons.
