  1. i think sharing different views is a big part of any message board. are you suggesting that if it was made private, administrators would kick anybody off for not having a specific opinion on each matter?

    maybe you should go start your own private board where you can share your opinions with the world and only allow those who agree with you to join your community. leave this board alone.

    They do kick people off if they are against the logo. The rules are not followed if attack is against someone who is against the logo. They are free game for the supporters. Though if an anti-logo does the same to a pro-logo they are gone.

  2. Since it appears you're on a roll today with your posts, I'll respond to this one.

    The whole game of hockey, especially in the WCHA, has changed to a defensive game. Basing your theory on stats about where certain players would compare to player's of 20 years ago is just plain dumb.

    How many points would Hrkac put up in today's league? 50-60 at best in my IMO.

    More like a hundred. What would the 87 team do to any of the 2000 era teams?

  3. Why would someone come back from Canada for a DUI trial if they might get found guilty? They wouldn't because it would screw up travelling over the border forever. Remember folks Canada does not like to let in Americans with a DUI on their record. The fix was in from the start. If he had not come back for this semester when would the trial have been held then? Never? What if he had killed someone driving drunk would he still be all of your hero? Probably on this board.

  4. Better question is what happened to the scoring over the last twenty years? Look at the stats from the 80's and early 90's to now. First line players today would at best have been third or fourth line players before. How many of the current players today would have even made the '87 team? A couple at best.

  5. I think he meant that Norman's opened in a location where another restaurant failed(Bennigan's). Although I heard that Bennigan's didn't so much fail as the landlord jacked the new lease beyond what the corporate office was willing to pay.

    Didn't Bennigans ,which use to be owned by Pillsbury but had to be sold when the Brits bought Pillsbury because the Brits owned a bunch of liqour companies, close a bunch of stores?

  6. Boulder has 4 Whole Food locations, two near CU, one on either end of the campus; the Magazine St. location in New Orleans is near Tulane, there is a Whole Foods near Denver University, there is a Whole Foods just west of the U of Wisc. campus. Whole Foods is building in Burlington Vermont, a college town. Look here to find more Whole Food locations. I'm sure there are many more near college campuses.

    With that I end my discussion of the merits of a Whole Food in GF. :lol:

    You fail to mention the demagraphics of the area though. You list a few stores out of numerous stores to make your arguement. College students would not shop at Whole Paychecks when the are broke. Example of locations would be where are the Whole Food stores located in Minneapolis? No where near a campus. Well maybe the St. Paul store but the site was not based on being close to a campus but more on the income of the neighborhood.

  7. I will admit that they aren't the cheapest, but they do have some good deals and their deli has good meals at a reasonable price.

    There has to be a reason that they have stores near college campuses.

    Where does Whole Foods have stores near college campuses? I have never seen one anywhere and that is not their market. They build in higher income areas not low income areas. Also Trader Joes is very cheap to buy groceries at. I highly doubt that Whole Foods would ever build in North Dakota, not enough of a market for them.

  8. Fireside Restaurant I think... it's now closed.

    David Norman happens to be the owner and chef at Norman's Fine Steakhouse in Fargo and he used to own Fireside so....

    The Fireside was a great place until Dave got involved. The paychecks he wrote there bounced. If Brown is smart he will stay away from any deal with Dave. He may pretend to be a chef but he is not. Dave is like TJ Oshies dad, stiff anyone that they can.

  9. It's kind of funny that most students and young people feel they are harassed and being put down. Every rule is aimed directly at them. Older people hate them and try to take advantage of them. That this town (whichever town they live in around the country) is the worst place they could possibly live and that the same thing doesn't happen in other places. And then as they get older they start to support many of the same rules and regulations they hated when they were students. And learn that not everyone was against them the whole time.

    It's kind of like how much smarter parents get as kids grow up and become adults. When you are a teenager you can't believe how stupid and lame your parents are. By the time you are in your mid 20s or 30s you can't believe how much your parents have learned.

    This also could be used to describe the loud party ordinance. They think it is alright to party as loud as they want. Ask them though in 10,20,30 years or so when they have to get up in the morning or have toget their kids asleep would they want themselves as neighbors? Or would their parents want them as neighbors right now? I think the answer would be no. At least that is what one of those girls that lived seven to a house told me when I asked her this question. She was one of the girls in the paper a couple of years ago.

  10. Somehow if the football games could be a social event where people want to be seen at like hockey games it would help. This board has the real hockey fans on it and not a bunch of people who just go to games to be seen and have the chance to say they were at the hockey game. To do this they need to win then the people would be there.
