Bids have already been submitted if I am not correct so upping a bid is not possible.

Where are the fans??????

Great to hear. Hope he can finish out the season.

Your guy St Peter should be able to make that happen I would think.

Correct. The Twins pitched the game to NDSU. This game is targeting twin cities and area fans who dont get to Fargo and dont have tickets. Plus the potential payout could be quite substantial.

They have been set up at our tailgate area and have been giving away their Chicken in a bisquit since the first game. Pretty tasty.

So I feel slighted because I said und screwed up????? We will just stop there as the rest of your post is equally hog wash. But please carry on. Wow

Ive already stated I dont really care about the nickle anymore. If we play you we play you if not we dont. No whining here. Fact is you cant change the history of your actions no matter how much you try to rationalize and justify them. You screwed up. Own it and move on. How do we know about the contracts? Because Faison negotiated everything through the media. LOL Again Faison wasnt your friend. You ended up having to come to Fargo twice and for less money because Faison screwed up. You could of had a home and home but Faison INSISTED the game be played every year. You cant change documented history.

You can manufacture all the rhetoric you want but the facts remain the same on how it all came down. As far as USD (even though they have nothing to do with the point at hand) USD didnt dump on us at the 11th hour after sitting on the contract. By that time most teams already had their schedules set. It put us in a bad place. As far as playing you Faison turned down numerous contracts by demanding that the game be played every year. By the time it was all said and done you were coming to Fargo twice with no return game and for less money. Now your first game is in Fargo when you finally join our conference. You guys did good. LOL As far as the nickle it would be nice to keep that history going. But thats not going to happen so its pretty irrelevant.

At this point you are correct. Why should we play at a smaller school for less money when you dont have to? Back then it was a totally different scenario. We were on the road alot during the transition. Remember we were willing to keep the series going. You werent. Nothing you can say changes that.

Or you could have kept playing us and this never would have been an issue. Remember we didnt call the series off.

Is there any teams in the FCS that you Havent predicted to move up?

I thought that myself. So what was the REAL reason for the move?

Its a sensitivity issue. Got it! Hey that level works pretty good.

I hope they are ready also. I try to never under estimate any opponent. ps I still cant see why they found my questions offensive??? No biggie.

Obviously they didnt.

There was no smear at all. Asked some very valid questions. ( which the mod didnt like obviously.)

You can bet on it.

Dont understand why you have to have a fundraiser for safety equipment when that should be supplied automatically. Makes no sense to me. Just like Bubbas quote makes no sense. Thats why I asked. But I guess nobody really knows.

I was wondering because Bubba stated that they are having to tape players who have ankle injuries for both practice and games.

If you arent going to tape that makes them essential. Are gloves essential? Bet they are covered in the budget.

Why isnt essential player safety equipment included in the budget? Why do they need ankle braces? Dont they tape players before every practice? If they dont why not?

You are really stretching here. This is nothing more than an informative piece of what it would take to move up. There is a lot of misconception. I hear it a lot when we go on road trips. People think just because you are successful you should just move up. As its really easy--wave the wand and poof and there you are. There is so much more than just the athletic side. Matt Larson has said numerous times when asked by the media that ---"we are happy where are. We are where we need to be." He isnt out there bloviating about going FBS like you.

So you again have no proof for your assertions. Not surprised
