The students are given a pretty big size lot to tailgate in. They can get reserved spots. That's a pretty sweet deal. I have a reserved spot that it right next to the student lot. Do I feel excluded from the rest of the big rigs up closer to the building? No. Because if I want to go up to Tailgate Village, or mingle with the other tailgaters, I walk up there. I see the point being not by everyone else. But you still have the option to roam around. That's the best part about tailgating. Interacting with fellow fans. Heck, most of the time they will hook you up with food or an adult beverage if you are of age!!

The point is are students just going to these games to drink? If so they can stay home and do that. I thought students went to games to support their fellow classmates and their college team. Students being jaded at officials for "busting" them for drinking at games when its pretty well known that alcohol is not allowed in the student section seems pretty dumb.

You're probably right. For some reason I thought they were closer together. Either way it's progressing nicely.

They have about 13-14 of the roof trusses up as well as the roof over it last time I rolled over the Colombia overpass to check. Mabe more by now. Really starting to take shape. I think I heard Faison say in an interview that they are really pushing to get the the roof up before the snow flies so they can do a lot of the work inside over the winter.

Breaking news!!! 18-22 year old kids do stupid immature things. Even more stupid an immature things while under the influence od alcohol!!

Was again dissapointed with the crowd on Saturday. Not so much the numbers, but the lack of fan interest by people at the game!! It is beyond frustrating when we score a TD and people won't even stand up to cheer. When we had the pick 6 and converted the 2 point, there were countless fans just golf clapping sitting on their butts. On that last drive where we needed a stop to put it into overtime, it was more of the same. Tie game against the #6 team in the country that beat us by 42 points last year and we have a chance to win, and there were hundreds of fans that I could see that simply were not inengaged in the game and seemed they coulod care less. I am not asking for fans to be jumping up and down for every play on defense and screaming at the top of their lungs. But if you are going to drive out to the Alerus and attend the game, at least show that you want to be their and support the team. There are spectators and there are fans. Which one do you want to be?

And the amazing thing is Bubba is having this type of success (defensively mostly) with Mussman's guys. Can't wait till his guys get plugged into his sytem. Things are looking promising to say the least.

How bout mixing it up and not only change the name of our nickname, but change the way it is referenced and said. What I mean is, if we pick a sweet name like "Warriors" and reference it in the non NA way to our military or Air Base, the nickname could be the Warriors, and we could be known as.... "The Warriors of North Dakota"

Offensive scoring looks good, defense is solid and can also put the puck in the net, goaltending is awesome...Let's Play!!!!!!

Only problem is, you are still in Brookins, SD.

It will be closer than 34. Heck, we opened up as 19 point dogs at Montana State this week!!

Why stop there!! Hakstol coach of the year, Caggiula wins the Hobey, and Zano breaks the shutout record and posts the best GAA in the country!! As an added bonus, the Gophers finish dead last in the Big 10 with Wisconsin barely ahead of them in 5th!!

No kidding!! Both of those were rediculous!!!

The first thing they are doing is more than likely coming up with a timeline of when a new name will be selected and implemented. Then probably determine how a name will be selected. Will they take suggestions from alumni, fans, etc? Will they narrow it down to a final 10, 4, 2?? Will there be a city wide vote to narrow down the list for Kelley to decide? There is much more to the process than just deciding on a new name. And that is what this committee is being asked to do.

Do you guys drink Big Sky beer in Bozeman or is that a no no in Bobcat coutry?!!

They changing the station to Fox Sports Duluth?!!

LAst time I was excited for UND mens basketball was last March when we were playing in the Big Sky Tournament Championship game for a bid to the NCAA Tournament. what's your point?!!

Heard a rumor that the northside Perkins on Gateway is closing. Wonder if something will move in there?!!

Comparing penalties and sacks to pedophiles that prey on underaged girls........Pretty sure that would go over well!!

Priority #1.....Stop Shawn Johnson!!!

Hitting the nail on the head!

Video boards are a great addition to arenas across the country. There are endless possiblities of what they can be used for. Unfortuanely those ideas are quickly swept under the rug and the video boards end up just getting used for advertising. Look to the Ralph for further evidence of this!!

Or shortened to "North Dakota Spirit"!! God help us then!!

What they should do is instead of having the scored of other games on the video board for the whole game, they sould have the game stats for both teams. Having the scores once in awhile to update current games is ok, but after I know the score, I don't need to see it for another 2 hours!! Hopefully someone at the AL reads this boeard. We obviously have all the answers!!
