  1. I'm simply looking for a positive in all this, and based on the tone of these quotes the term "addition by subtraction" comes to mind.

    I was going to say the same thing. I could see the remaining players forming an even stronger bond around a situation like this, and really start playing great as a team.

  2. What are the chances this ends up getting moved to the Ralph because of the demand for these tickets if und makes the tournament?

    If this stays in Fargo with only 5000 seats available, buying a chunk of tickets would be a good roi buy.

    I'd say 0% chance. If it were to get moved, it would basically be the NCAA admitting they made a mistake, and that's incredibly unlikely.

  3. If it is true that Klieman has interest in the job, and North Dakota has interest in him, how would that work, logistically, for the rest of this FCS season? Same question for any potential candidate that still has part of a season to coach.

    In the case of Klieman, or any other current coach that may be playoff bound, the rest of his season could likely go into January. If someone like Klieman were hired on December 10, would he be done at his current job, leaving them without one of their top assistants for the playoff run? Would he keep his job, and not take over until his current team is done with the playoffs?

    I know I have heard of coaches from schools playing in bowls games leaving prior to the bowl game to start working for their new schools. They probably have to work something out between the schools to allow this though. I'm guessing it would be a little easier for a coordinator/position coach to miss a bowl game than the head coach, which is what I remember seeing before.

  4. I think the announcer kept calling Rocco "Gamaldi." He was not only terrible, but also incredibly boring. We didn't even see I think it was the fourth goal because the camera quickly cut to a zoomed in area above the crowd. Hopefully other league teams have better broadcasts. Seeing that small arena though, makes me think it'd be really cool to get to a game there sometime.

  5. Ohh no you don't. :lol:

    What bothers me is people who call themselves Twins fans treat Torii Hunter like the best thing to ever happen to the Minnesota Twins organization. And every time he comes back everyone is supposed to cherish every at bat of his, and the way he plays the game.

    Hunter decides to leave.....gets cheered. A.J. Pierzynski gets traded and gets booed.....Minneapolis sports fans at their finest. I hope he never wins a world series.

    I think it's because Torii was always a great guy on and off the field and was fun to watch. He wanted more years and money than the Twins were willing/able to pay at the time, so they parted on good terms. A.J. was and is an @$$ who got traded to make room for Mauer. I think it was Gardy, or maybe Ozzie G., who once said something like, "You hate him when he's on the other team, and when he's on your team, you hate him a little less." He just wasn't the charasmatic and likeable guy Torii was.

    Although Torii winning a WS would be nice, I'm rooting against the Tigers because they're in the Central.

    Anyways, when news outlets use Twitter posts as news. THAT bothers me.

  6. Quasi jersey related.....

    The home white jerseys will be worn with green helmets and green breezers this year.

    Great news! That's such a good look! This is really making me consider getting the UND Insider online package.

  7. Well, we'll lose Pittsburgh off that list this weekend.

    Have no fear though, the Vikings will win meaningless games at the end of the season that will drop their draft status by five or six picks and miss out on the top three or four difference makers.

    Skol Vikings.

    Who do you think they are, the Timberwolves?

  8. I'm not sure what all this gibber-gabber back and forth is all about. NDSU has been killing it recently in FBS and it's super cool that Game Day will be there. It doesn't mean they're any less stupid. You just have to give it up to them this week because they've earned this attention and are bringing something awesome that people from all over the state can take pride in. Just because they're too baby to play UND in football doesn't mean we can't give it up for them for just one week. If I weren't living in Minneapolis and going to see the Gophers on Saturday, I'd consider going to Fargo just to see the pre-game. Sounds like a great weekend for ND football!

  9. I cringed a little when I first heard the line about the deep river and the water rushing over them. Not that I'm offended or whatever, but with people being so flippin' sensitive these days, i could see that line causing a bit of a stir.
