What influence do you think the 8 protesters on Friday night and 6 tonight had on the NCAA brass???

I along with most in the Red River Valley consider this area to be blessed that Mr. Pat Sweeney has turned down the numerous offers from ESPN and Fox Sports to stay here and bless us with his charisma!! Some people have "it" and others don't. Anyway North on 20th street south, left on 52nd ave.s , right on I-29, left on Gateway...Long Haul!, then left from the long Haul lot, right on 42nd, right and a left to Dagwoods for a bit. right from Dagwood's lot, left on 42nd, right on Gateway, right into the Ralph(I got one of those parking thingies!) and 5 or 6 hours of HOCKEY. Let's go Crusaders!!! clap clap clap clap clap!!! LETS GO SIOUX!!!

Wow! Can I ride with you from Fargo to Grand Forks!!!, 5 1/2 hour roadtrip!!! NICE, have not done that in awhile? Lets see, Happy Trails, Harwood Hideout, Sport Bar, the Beehive....then what, that seems like 4 hours to me?

I know it's only March 24......, but I am pretty sure this will hold up as the post of the year!!!! Unfortunately I was just on the Stephen F. Austin board and they think NDSU is the Thundering Sioux???

Facts don't usually need correcting.

Corrected your post

They should be the odds on favorite to win the National Title.

hmm... underage huh.?? maybe throw some gopher gear on them and go to Blarney's!!!

The only time I want to see the Gophers if it is the last meaningful game for both teams this year!!

Can you repeat the part where you said all about the stuff?

Staying at Holiday Inn on Burns Avenue(5 minutes away from the X). Where is everyone going on Friday morning before the game? I like McGoverns, but have become kind of fond of Alary's for some reason?(must be the free parking and free shuttle to the game, don't know what else it could be???)

Uhmm? Does not doing that count?

Just booked rooms at Holiday Inn on Burns Avenue in St. Paul, bout 5 minutes from the x!! Where is everyone else staying??

Let me make sure I have this right. A group that was formed due to their opposition to the UND Nickname and Logo has passed a resolution opposing the UND nickname and Logo.

Lets not forget that Paukovich not only hit Bina from behind, he hit him after the whistle as well. If Adam would have had his head out of his a$$, he would have gave him the 5 and 10 and we probably would not have had to deal with the inconsistency of this call and players engangering themselves by trying to draw the call.

Thanks! Could not remember if their were 2 rows or 3 rows in front.

I dropped the ball on getting my regular season seats(section 106, seats 5 and 6)...., no big deal I bought and revieved my tickets at time of sale for section 105, seats 17 and 18. I inquired about Club seats and was told that those ticket holders had an extra couple weeks to get first crack at their seats. I gave them my name and told them to call me if they had any club seats available on either side, BUT in the barstool seats only. They called me back, confirmed my request and ran my credit card. I got the seats today and was wondering if anyone can tell me if the seats I recieved today are actually in this location? My seats in the club are listed as section SC1, row C, seats 12 and 13. Does anyone know if this is the correct row for The Barstool seats? Thanks

I remember the last few games in "the rivalry as well"!!, led me to post this on bisonville in April 2004...some of my best work I think! Part 1 Mid-August In Attendance; Gene Taylor, Lynn Dorn, President Chapman, Coach Miles, Coach Bohl, Coach Ruley, Coach McLeod. Gene Taylor "I called you all here to discuss the upcoming seasons and our pending move to Division 1!!! We need to shed as positive a light on this as possible, there are plenty of naysayers out their who would like to believe that our move to Division 1 is not a good one. They say that the funds won't be there, they say the talent won't be there, they say the facilities are not all up to par, they say the fan support won't be there, and they also say that we haven't really done jack in D2 over the last few years and that we are arrogant for making this move. That is why we are having this discussion today and why it is imperative that your teams accomplish 3 little things this season. Number 3, you must qualify for postseason play in D2 so that we can show everyone that we really are too good for this level, Number 2, at least one of you better bring home a National Title so we can show our D2 brethern that we are doing them a favor by moving so they won't have to deal with our imagined sheer dominance of this division, and most importantly, and I cannot stress the importance of this enough...since we will not be playing UND anymore in most sports, it it incredibly important that we defeat the Sioux in our final games in these rivalry games....NO EXCEPTIONS!!! We will revisit this discusion or mandate if you want to call it that in May. That is all. Good Luck and remember Bison Pride!!!" Part 2 Late May In attendance; Gene Taylor, Lynn Dorn, and President Chapman seated on one side of a large table with a 4th unidentified person sitting in a large black chair with his back to the table. Also present on the other side of the table Coach Ruley, Coach Bohl, Coach Mcleod, and Coach Miles. GT: "We are here to revisit our discussions from August. If you all remember I set very achievable goals for you all back then. So lets review. Coach Miles, how did we do on our goals this season? CM: "Well we did not make the NCAA postseason, we did not even sniff a national title, and we lost to the Sioux in the final game of the rivalry." GT loosens his tie: "Well I hope it gets better from there." "Coach Bohl can you recap the season for me?" CB: "We beat Montana!!!" GT: " Was that one of our goals? I don't seem to remember that one. Anything else?" CB: "We freakin beat Montana!!!!!" GT: "Do I have to remind you of our MANDATES for a successful season?" CB: "Well we did not make the playoffs, we did not even get a sniff of postseason and we lost to the Sioux. But did I mention that we beat Montana?" GT is now obviously upset, his face is getting red and he undoes one of his shirt buttons, " Coach Ruley, you have always carried this athletic program, please tell me something pleasing to my ears." CR: "WE did make the NCAA postseason!!, we really did not get anywhere near a national title and we beat the Sioux twice!!" GT: "Well that is a little better, but we of course did not really have anywhere to go but up though, did we? So we beat the Sioux both times we played them this year, that is great!" CR: "Yes Sir" CB: "But Mister Taylor they played the Sioux more than twice this year." CR: "Shut up baldy" GT: "Amy is this true" CR: "Well, yeah I guess so" GT: "But we beat them the last time we played them, ...right?" CR: "Not exactly, they beat us for the NCC Title on our home court, but as I told anyone who would listen, that was a meaningless game. Really, I mean sure it was the last time we would play them in Fargo on our home court, but it really did not matter." GT: "OK, OK, so you beat them 2 out of 3 times then, only losing a meaningless NCC title tilt on our home court? CR: "Yep, we beat them 2 out of 3 times." Lynn Dorn: "Mister Taylor, they played 4 times" CR: "et tu Lynn" GT: "I want the truth" President Chapman "under his breath" "you can't handle the truth" GT: "What?" PC: "Nothing" CR: "Well OK we lost one more time which I guess was the last game we played the Sioux, the last time we played in D2, and it ended our season, but it really was not that important of a game" GT: "This is unfu#$ingbelievable". Coach Mcleod can you save the day? CM: "We might make the postseason, a national title is pretty unrealistic, and we did lose our final game at home to the Sioux." GT: "Well, you played them 4 times right? So I assume you won the first 3 and they got lucky and stole one from you, it's baseball, it happens" CM: "Yep, we played them 4 times" GT: "Good, good, nice job then" AR: "Not so fast Mitch" GT: "Am I missing something?" A long pause GT: "Coach Mcleod? Do you have s#!t in your ears" CM: "No sir. We actually lost all 4 games to the Sioux this season" GT: "Well thats just fu#$ing great, just Fu$%ing great" The coaches in unison: "We tried, they are just too good, at least we won't have to play them anymore!!" GT: "People, I really did not want it to come to this, but I don't know where to go from here, as a wise man once said "You can't make chicken out of chicken soup" I would now like to turn this meeting over to......" The chair that had been facing away from the table turns around to reveal......................................... Donald Trump!!!! Someone is going to get Fired over this.

Uhmm. They smoked the D1 Lady Bison in the bsa, so they must be awesome. In case you have not heard, the Bison are D1 now and much better than the rest of the teams in the region.

Apples and oranges. At this point in his career, Oshie has not sexually assaulted a minor girl and taken a run at a player after the whistle and drove him into the boards putting his career and the ability to lead a normal life at great risk.

Cheap? Sure Unnecessary? debateable It didn't seem to effect him too much. He was able to come back on the ice and run Oshie from behind(should have been 5), then headlock him and drive him to the ice face first(Bertuzzi style) which should have got him a season ending suspension. Bad news for him, he still has more coming to him....it's called karma

How is this scenario? IU cans Davis. IU brings in Alford. Mac ends up at Iowa.

Give me this team in 2007 and I'll give either of you 15!! I amended it to 2007. I'll get back to you on the coach!

Being a sports rube and not wanting to know otherwise, I will believe that the Superbowl was decided by incompetent officials rather than any improper NFL fix.

Last season, Wisconsin would have benefitted more by losing the WCHA playoff series with UAA since doing so would have boosted UAA's record and boosted them into tuc status.
