  1. Very well stated and right on point. The tribes are very often their own worst enemy. There are few jobs on the reservation because of what you said. Yet there is constant complaining about high unemployment. If there are no jobs there, the unemployed need to go where there are jobs, much like the great influx ND had during the boom. Too bad the tribe doesn't realize it's being exploited by the very people who are assisting the tribe in protesting its exploitment..
  2. Resembled Groucho Marx? Dr. Poochigian.
  3. Comment in the Strib after the story about Boeser's prom date should make us Sioux fans proud: TEXT SIZE 4 14 EMAIL PRINT MORE WaterBunkerMAY. 5, 165:24 PM I read several interviews of players after the Sioux won the National Championship. What a class group. The loyalty to the school was really moving. Obviously they are not a group of pampered hockey stars. And this beautiful story is more confirmation. There obviously was a reason he chose ND. As a Gopher fan, I admit to being envious of the ND hockey heritage.
  4. So why not Ray Purpur? He's 46, a good age with lots of energy to take on the job. He's a UND grad, who's done well at another very good school. He's not a professor/department head from some effete eastern school. He bleeds green and sees this as a lifetime dream job, not a stepping stone, or a final run before retiring. He compares well to the last good prez we had. If I had a vote, he'd get it!
  5. Row 112 N 3-6 Will sell 2 or 4. $50 apiece or best offer. Text 701-721-6742
  6. There is another reason. If the building has central air, then the landlord has to pay the monthly cost of it. He can do that and raise the rent, making his apartments sound even less affordable, or he can do window units and let the tenant worry about the monthly cost of cooling the apartment.
  7. Where to eat in GF, is there a forum on that somewhere?
  8. Anyone got a single they want to sell for Sat DU series, test me 701-721-6742
  9. This team just plain sucks! I'm done watching. It's too painful.
  10. Great response! First, label anyone whose opinion you dispute, because that de-legitimizes them. And let's definitely use the r word because you're the only one that knows what a racist is, and anyone that has a different opinion than you has to be one, no matter what they disagree with you on. Second, create a strawman, in your case a tea partier, or even a specific person--Clive Bundy. Then, attack the strawman. You've now attempted to show how stupid someone is that isn't even involved in the conversation! What an amazing feat! But, you really haven't addressed anything that anyone was discussing, Basically, there can be no opinion but yours. And we can't even discuss the difficulty of being a police officer in a high crime black neighborhood, or find out from you if there is ever a scenario where shooting a suspect is justified. One last thing. Do you actually know any of the protesters, and how hard does the average tea partier work? Who's lumping people together now? Might I suggest you look up the word "bigot?" You might see a familiar face there.
  11. I don't usually jump on fire the coach forums but...it's time!
  12. We have plenty of 3 point shooters---Dyer, Strand, and Lauck, among others. Must have just been an off night for them.
  13. I agree that Brewster did some coaching to keep this team's head in the game after that first half. I thought Wis-Milwaukee had some excellent players and our girls did an amazing job in shutting them down in the second half. Bailey is already an excellent player who's not afraid to pull the trigger on the 3 pointer. We've got a solid first eight players. They should make for a very fun year since they're very well coached.
  14. Her Mom is Julie Wald Stewart. Julie played at UND, and was an outstanding player. She's now coaching her daughter's team at Ryan after being a college coach in Seattle. She knows what she's doing. Hannah has faced some very good competition at various basketball venues with their club team. I believe their high school/club team also beat the class A powers at a summer tournament last summer. But, she's probably an even better softball player than a bb player and will probably have offers from D1 powers to play that instead of bb. Hannah could definitely play bb at UND if she chose to play in ND after high school. We've had a lot of girls from small schools in MN do very well for us here.
  15. Who is this Burger guy & how does he know everything?
  16. Does anyone know if the Sioux are showing any interest in Harrison Aide, Mr Hockey for this year? The kid can obviously put the puck in the net!
  17. The best burger in GF is Speedway. Their popper burger is amazing! And their fries are good too.
  18. That sounds much like a condescending gopher fan talking down GF. We're better than that--and I'm sure that Houghton is a great place
  19. That's the way I remember it when he was here. But now I here Paul Allen and NHL announcers saying "Pa REES ay." Either Zach has changed the pronunciation (ala Joe Theisman), we had it wrong all along, or the announcers don't have a clue.
  20. You guys tried a burger at Speedway? Unbelievable! Especially the Popper burger!
