  1. Please start wearing a helmet when you play.
  2. But it becomes discriminatory when you allow one group of people (FSU, NC-Pembroke, Utah and CMU) to use names and images deemed
  3. This guy isn't a real Sioux, just ask GrahamKracker.
  4. BB and you are obviously not on the same page. BB wants UND to take on the NCAA through the appeals process or through court. This issue is with the NCAA not the tribes. Tribal approval is only a part of the apeal process, it should not be and is not the sole reason for an appeal. I understand you are saying that if the Sioux Nation were to poll its people and the majority disapproved of the name UND should be willing to change. I would assume you don't want UND to look like classless jerks thumbing their noses at the local tribes. I doubt this poll will ever happen so it seems it is a mute point. The real issue that UND is willing to go court over is the NCAA calling them racists that are "abusive and Hostile" with out any clear definition of what is "abusive and Hostile" about the choice of nickname.
  5. Too lazy for an English class also.
  6. Isn't it obvious, UND adopted the Sioux name in October of 1930. Ralph pulled alot of strings to get the name changed. He was a pretty powerful well connected nine month old.
  7. Wonder if Hakstol is giving this guy a look. Unlike his brother I think he would be a four year player. And his Ambition: Obtain an education through hockey
  8. I like his ambition listed on the Salmon Arm site. It sounds like he intends to stick around all four years. But I guess if he's shrinking he may not have a choice.
  9. Since Dakota is out, how about 39TH STATE accross the chest.
  10. They will fuzz out your shirt like they do with nudity on network TV. The student section will just be one big blur.
  11. And not a very good one.
  12. How can there be any dissenting votes if nobody had a vote? Since FSU has been so vocal and plans to take legal action, they will be pretty much guaranteed an exemption. The ruling is clearly undefined and would probably not hold up in court (a big blow to the NCAA), however if the NCAA gives FSU an exemption it would still be able to enforce its undefined policy on the other 17 schools. I just hope FSU tells the NCAA to take their exemption and shove it.
  13. This Sioux doesn't have the same view as you but you'll more than likely dismiss his views saying he isn't following his native ways or isn't Indian enough.
  14. It's also unrealistic because there isn't a player riding piggyback on Parise. No way his he left open down low behind the net.
  15. Thought he seemed too young to step in this year and play but then I realized he still has 10 months on Toews.
  16. According to the Engelstad Arena schedule the olympic arena is available to the mens team every day for at least a couple of hours. The main arena won't have ice in until around September 7 and the mens team starts using it on the 10th. Practice usually starts about a week before the first series of the season. My guess would be first offical practice on Oct 3. Captians practices for a few weeks before that.
  17. I wouldn't care too much about how high scoring the D-man is but rather what his +/- rating is. There are already offensive type d-men coming in. If Greene or Smaby turn pro the Sioux will need to fill the void of a big tough stay at home defenseman.
  18. I don't know about Chad, but Aaron Vickar did.
  19. Mad Man

    FOYT

    Marvin will dress instead of Radke. I don't think Radke got a shift in the Minny game.
  20. Since it's two WCHA teams playing the NCAA has decided to let Don Adam ref the game tonight. They're confident he will do a good job.
