True. We never missed class for cold in the 80's. What a bunch of pussies.

Official SiouxSports.com Logo Reaction Thread and Poll
sioux34 replied to NoiseInsideMyHead's topic in UND Nickname
Ah, I had not seen that. It does not improve my opinion of the logo. Why does what looks like a V hanging off the right side of the N go below the line of text? It just looks dumb. -
Official SiouxSports.com Logo Reaction Thread and Poll
sioux34 replied to NoiseInsideMyHead's topic in UND Nickname
I would like to know what the N is supposed to look like without the bird present. Why the big dip on the lower right quadrant? I am not loving the new logo. I gave it a D -
While I played basketball for the Sioux in the early 1980s, and graduated from UND, I must admit I don't spend much time following the current UND sports teams. That does not change the fact that I think changing the team name sucks, both in the concept and the execution.
-
I guess you are just a bigger fan than I am, you win.
-
I have not lived in North Dakota for 20 years. The team formerly known as the Sioux don't get much air time where I live now.
-
I don't care if you are annoyed. That's the way I feel. Deal with as you see fit.

I caught some of the UND game vs Western Michigan the other day. It was the first time I had heard the Fighting Hawks used by broadcasters. I threw up in my mouth a little bit.
-
It is safe to say that I will never buy a piece of fighting Hawk gear. Sorry, that is just the way I roll.
-
I expect the new logo to look about like Daffy Duck with a slightly pointier bill.
-
Which is just another example of why Fighting Hawks is a stupid name.
-
You are welcome. Glad you could come to grips with it.
-
I am sitting 25 minutes from Kinnick stadium as I type. It's Hawks.
-
Thankfully, the character Hawkeye in Last of the Mochicans was white, or I am guessing the NCAA would have gone after them as well, and then I would be doubly pissed.
-
HopHead, although the #5 Iowa Football team is officially the Hawkeyes, here in Iowa they are universally referred to as the Hawks.
-
After going through the process that came up with this name, why would you hold out any hope of a similar process coming up with a really cool logo?
-
I have not lived in the GF area in just over twenty years, and I rarely get back to town to catch any sporting events. I am sadly disappointed with the bland nature of the new name. I will take comfort in the fact that while they can change the name of the current UND sporting teams, it will not change the name of the team I played for back in the early 1980s. Go Sioux.
-
I voted Roughriders this go around, but I can guarantee that I will never buy any new merchandise. I will have to get by with the Sioux gear I already own.

Hey, I live in Cedar Rapids and our junior team would like in on that action.
-
I am here to tell you I find the name Nodak hostile and abusive.
-
Not aviation related I hope.
-
Add me to the list. They can change the name of the team currently playing at UND, but that does not change the name of the team I played for back in the 80's. I will never buy another licensed piece of North Dakota sporting apparel.
-
I was in Rapid City, South Dakota over the holidays. I was surprised by how many Fighting Sioux items I saw being worn by native americans there. I guess they didn't find it hostile or abusive. Go figure.
-
I bet the Thunder costume is stuffed in a closet in the Slop somewhere.
-
OK, now that I know what it is, that is as stupid as any of the other names I have seen. Pass.
