  1. Your reasoning is ludicrous. Their facility is fine (at least as good as many of the top D1AA programs). Their coaches are good. All they need are the good players which they're getting.
  2. SCSU basketball is just as sad as UND basketball....no one cares about it! They both only care for hockey.
  3. OK..here is the deal. Summer olympics are games which when played outside must be done in the summer. Winter games can only be played outside in the winter. The fact that we play certain sports indoors is only for convention of seats.
  4. SDSU football being dropped is about as likely as UND hockey being dropped. Aint gunna happen. The reason SDSU football IS going to be more competitive in D1 is because they'll ahvethe full 63 scholorships which means they can recruit better kids.
  5. It might be true that football will lose money, maybe. The real reason for NDSU's tuition raise (which will still make it less than UND) is that we require more money to upgrade ourselves university wide. Not only are we upgrading our sports to D1 (a secondary objective) but our main goal is upgrading to Carnegie Doctoral/Research Extensive status. This is the big objective. But we need money to build new facilities and hire new staff. It's just the bottom line...if the students don't like it then they can transfer to VCSU or some other North Dakota university.
  6. I didn't post here...my post was moved from the basketball forum. I think the NHL owner's said it best "...the NHL is bleeding money..." Yawn...are the Timberwolves on yet?
  7. Nope. You're spinning the meaning. Cleats are nothing more than extentions on the shoes. You can take off the cleat (in fact many shoes let you do this) and still use the shoe just fine. But take the blade off a skate or the ski off the boot and it's completely useless. LOL! I'd actually pay to see hockey without skates! A bunch of morons out their flailing around....oh wait...that's what it is now. I'll just stick to the true winter sport of America: basketball.
  8. They are not used to it...and neither are we!! We stay indoors all day where it's 70 degrees. To say that were used to it should imply that we don't need coats or don't even feel cold. bull$%!#! If anything we're more sensitive to the cold because we fell it all the time! We won those games because we were the better team!!!! Not because of the weather. The weather caused us to f$%k up just as much as them. Hardly an advantage.
  9. We have a new rivalry with SDSU...it was always better than UND anyway...we just looked in the wrong direction. Shoulda looked south a LONG time ago.
  10. Hockey is hockey where ever you go. The players and the fans have a weird pseduo-elitist attitude because they play/watch a sport which requires the non-natural skill of skating.
  11. LOL....nice try. Cleats and spikes are not in the same universe as skates or skis.
  12. Because morons like you are paying the extreme prices it takes to support a money guzzling sporst like hockey afloat. If they come...keep charing them an arm and a leg, i guess. It's not like it's goign to expand to anywhere outside the north anyway.
  13. Supply and demand. It means that there is not enough demand for NHL to support the supply given by the NHL. They expanded too much (esp in markets where, naturally, no one gives a s&!t about hockey like Atlanta) and spread themselves too thin. They should be bankrupt but i'm sure they'll find away around it.
  14. Yeah...you can see how much America loves hockey. College hockey is a joke too...with barely a nadful of big, legitamate schools having programs and a bunch of little schools having programs as well.
  15. Winter conditions never helped NDSU win any game, period. People have a misguided opinion that weather effects the games. Nope. It doesn't matter if you live in the cold or not, you NEVER get used to it. You stay indoors all day @ 70 degrees...the temp that humans are naturally confortable at. OK let me revise my opinion on why Winter Sports are unnatural for humans: you have to have special apparatus for your feet in every winter sport (skates, skis, luge, bobsled, etc). Humans are obviously not made to walk or run through snow or on ice. All summer sports are dry land training where all you need is a good pair of shoes.
  16. You guys are mad that a pro-NDSU comentary was on *FARGO TV* ?!? LOL, talk about infatuation! If you want pro-UND talk, then stick to the Grand Forks station.
  17. The most pathetic thing about winter sports is that you can't participate without some sort of apparatus attached to your body. Humans are simply not meant to be outdoors and functioning on snow and ice. Dry land games are the only true sports that we have that can be participated in by ALL countries.
  18. That was my whole point. The "winter olympics" is a complete consumer driven shame. A bunch of stupid sports that no one cares about but since it's the "olympics" then it must be KOOL!!! YEA!!!! WINTAR OLYMPIKS!!! YEA!!!! The only true olympics are the summer olympics.
  19. The mystereous "D" posts all the time on Bisonville. UND must be obsessed with NDSU.
  20. No kidding...just a bunch of sore losers looking for some way to bring NDSU down.
  21. This must be why all the teams in the mid con that have football are D1AA. This is also probably why they are agreeing to manage our new D1AA conference. Brillient.
  22. Well..this is a suprise to me considering how much coverage UND gets on Fargo news. Do they show NDSU stuff on GF news? Coteau: yes stations themselves are irrelevent...that's why i said news shows. Not every station has a news show.
  23. Pfft...the NCAA can suck it. They have the nerve to try and tell colleges what they can and can't do.
