Mostly has to do with the Sioux fans annual practice of picking out 1 defenseman to put blame on for anything that goes wrong....i.e. Blood, Finley, Lee, etc.....strange enough it is usually a D-man who our coaching staff has the most confidence in and normally plays them the most minutes and also has the audacity to play on the power play and penalty kill along with logging the most minutes, especially at crunch time. Lee was a pretty solid performer at UND but maybe didn't live up to the expectations of being a first round draft pick. In fairness to fans, watching Lee was frustrating at times as he never seemed to want to make a big hit and seemed like he was more concerned with how his skating form looked and never really seemed to play with any urgency.(a lasting impression is him coasting after a puck in St. Louis when BC was shorthanded and he forgot we were on the Power Play and had our goalie pulled)

This vote has nothing to do with whether people would be in favor of keeping the name or not. We all know that would pass with 75-80% of the vote.

Using the eye test I would say the WCHA was down this year. Insert the 2010-11 Sioux or UMD teams into the league this year and they probably lose 2-3 conference games all year. I think with the departures and injuries throughout the leage this year that the biggest difference is the depth teams had. I look at teams 2nd lines this year and most of them would have been 3rd or in some caes even 4th lines last year.

UMM. We don't know that?

Got it.

Some of that is gonna happen anyway.

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching this game but I am not going to be flipping my Gopher buddies too much crap....They are in Tampa our guys are golfing at Ray Richards

Think Hak would have got the job either way. I think it did influence why he didn't get the women's job though.

Minnesota put themselves in a better position than we did as far as the number of games played.

The NCAA selling Fighting Sioux Jerseys at the Xcel last weekend.....that is pragmatic!

Guess we will see in a couple weeks. I have heard different from a pretty good source. I also know that he wants to stay.

Drew Shore did sign with Florida and Florida is telling Bjugstad it's time to sign.

I don't think Drew Shore is playing in Florida next week?

And the Panthers are telling one of those prospects that he only needs a 1 way ticket to Florida next week.

No, but it does put the hypocrisy of the NCAA on full display.

What are the odds you got seats 13-16...the tickets I traded back to ticketmaster?

Had seats in 102, row 4 seats 13-16.....was able to trade them for club level 26 on the rail seats 1-4!

Yeah. It's not like this is new. This has been going on at Marquette for 16 years now. A large portion of their crowd at their games still wears Warrior gear and they will always be known better as the Warriors than whatever name they are going by now....same thing will happen with UND whether we change our name or go without a name a good majority of people will still be referring to UND as the Fighting Sioux 20 years from now.

McGoverns, Alarys, and Eagle Street

She originally looked like Cloris Leachman on a bender.

Of course if you meet your wife before you become a superstar you could end up stuck like Kurt Warner.

Hi Ho Tavern is far superior. Ruby Tuesday is pretty good as well. Granite City too. The Hub burger in GF also. Mick's Office was great until they switched ownership and they must have changed vendors? Like i said I have only tried JL once and wasn't impressed at all and neither were the 2 people I was with. Maybe it was the anticipation since a few people had said how good they were.

I am going to have to give JL Beers another shot I guess. Lots of hype about them. Tried one once and it was about as average as average can be. Nowhere near top 5 in Fargo.

FargoBison is kicking some ass and taking some names in this thread. Some of you guys should probably quit before he makes you look even more foolish.

Not sure if they were recruited or if they decided to go their on their own, but 2 of Moorhead's better players in hockey this year are actually ND kids.
