Hey, did anyone catch in the GFherald article that the women's hockey team got their new jerseys in January? Didn't the athletic department and Coach I. say that they didn't have time to get a new team picture for the NCAA tourney? January to March, they couldn't find time to take a photo? I believe Kelly and Faison need to apologize to the women's hockey team! That is ridiculous!

Funny, wasn't it last year that Kelley did a promotion with Beer Grandma of online courses. I guess she isn't of any use anymore to him!

Let's go everyone! The Fight is not over!

Spirit Lake Committee for Understanding and Respect are still fighting to keep our Fighting Sioux Name and Logo. Visit SavetheFightingSioux.com to help them. You can donate to the fund to help them fight. Please consider helping them! They are proud of the name, why aren't you?

I have 2 tickets for both nights of the Ice Breaker Tournament. Sec. 116, Row K, behind Sioux Bench between blue line and center ice. Asking for original cost $50/ticket.

I have it on good authority that Inside Fighting Sioux Hockey TV show will not happen this year! The UND AD department said it was too expensive! I urge you all to voice your opinion to Director Faison that we do want Inside Fighting Sioux Hockey back on this year! brian.faison@athletics.und.edu

I thought they weren't going to be selling Fighting Sioux items as of 8-15-11? 70+ Fighting Sioux items still being sold as of now!!!! Check it out at ncaa.com in the shop section. What hypocrites!!!!!

The NCAA will now use the student lawsuit (non of them from Sioux tribes of Spirit Lake or Standing Rock) against our delegation tomorrow. Support our delegation and email the NCAA and let them know that they have gone to far!

If they are so offended, you are they students at UND??? Why don't they file a lawsuit against the Chippewa's at Central Michigan????/

Keep our Fight for the Fighting Sioux going strong!

Keep the emails going!

As if they haven't been bitchy already! At least some of us still care about the Fighting Sioux heritage!

For a one stop shop click the link below to e-mail the NCAA President and Vice President. http://sayanythingblog.com/entry/take-action-email-the-ncaa-and-tell-them-north-dakotans-want-to-keep-the-fighting-sioux-nickname/

I saw that, but where are the representatives of Standing Rock and Spirit Lake on that list? They should have gone back to the NCAA upon the vote of Spirit Lake and their resolution.

The question is, who is the State Higher Ed board going to invite to be part of this group going to the NCAA? Will they cherry pick who it is again? Are they going to make sure that the proponents are there from Spirit Lake and Standing Rock? I really don't think the proponents will get a fair representation on this delegation based on prior dealings of the State Higher Ed board. I would love the Board to prove me wrong!

I sent you a pm to get a pdf. I will get a poster done and take it to the Frozen 4. thanks.

More alumni/athlete coming out for the Fighting Sioux Name/Logo http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/197793/

Count in 4 more from Minneapolis. Daughters will be getting High 5's from players, just like all year. Coach Hakstol stated they are bringing the team luck - can't break that! Staying at the Best Western, 1 block away.

The ND Senate Education committee has scheduled the hearing for keeping our Fighting Sioux name and logo for this Monday, March 7th. Please contact the members of the education committee and let them know that our name/identity means so much and to vote in favor of HB1263. rmarcellais@nd.gov;galee@nd.gov;tflakoll@nd.gov;jheckaman@nd.gov;dgschaible@nd.gov;lfreborg@nd.gov;lluick@nd.gov

For the NCAA West Regional Hockey Tournament, it is a requirement by the NCAA no matter where the event is being held that all the advertising on the board be taken off plus the logos on the ice, replaced with the NCAA. So, even if he got rid of our Fighting Sioux name and logo, the generic ND would have to go too!

I am one of those hockey types you are taking about. I think you should have all the facts. UND will not host another NCAA regional because of the NCAA's rule for neutral sites, so UND won't be missing out on any money through the ralph for either hockey or basketball. Question is with football - how much does the Alerus get vs UND?

The ND House of Representatives will be voting on the Fighting Sioux name and logo this Monday, Feb. 21st. I urge you to email our legislators and let them know that our identity is important.
