Folks, it will take longer than two years to get the public excited about FB again. We spent years in the wilderness of a bad transition period and a horrible start to the Big Sky era. Give Bubba another two years of recruits and big wins and we'll have the student section we had from 2001-05; loud, crazy and a thorn in the visiting team's side.

If he pulls a stunt like that, he'll be leaving office much sooner than mid-January 2016. More like the next day!

Better be hockey and not MBB, that might be a toss-up!

Maybe we could win that league?

Just keep the siouxsports.com domain name and then have it forward to hawksports.com or ridersports.com or whatever it ends up being. Over time, it will become known to everyone and you won't lose anyone.

I have went there a couple of times and honestly, I like Hugo's better.

I guess I was talking about looking petty in a town you have just moved to and a town where you are trying to get people in the door and possible come back again and again. I suppose they'll work something out like they usually do.

That would improve my opinion of Faison big-time.

It's not like Hugo's is trying to set up a store in front of Hornbachers, it's a freaking restaurant. It might even drive up business as people will eat and then grab a few grocery items while they are there. But no, that makes too much sense. Hornbachers should worry more about competing with the local giant (Hugo's) and stop worrying about a totally different kind of business being built next door.

Don't they usually honor the seniors during the last regular season home game? I know hockey does it like that.

And make it difficult for those of us who have season tickets to both to make it to REA in time for that game. There are no easy solutions for these "triple-header" weekends.

That is what I was thinking as well.

That was just two weeks after the meltdown vs. Omaha that ruined that entire season. The program really was never the same after that as a Division II playoff contender.

I'll take 5,000 rowdy fans over 10,000 docile fans every day and twice on Sundays.

LOL, nicely played sir.

Feel free to negative vote anything you want.

I see you are in fine form today. When you don't have a good response, go for the gutter. Now, please explain to us again why an AHL team would work in Grand Forks?

I think you have that backwards.

I feel the same way and figured that is what you meant.

Okay, fair enough.

I have already explained it in other posts in other threads. But since you always buy whatever explanation you are served up no matter how puzzling the official explanation is, I won't bother explaining it again.

I think the tide may be turning on that now that the choice is between Fighting Hawks and Roughriders. Which gives me even more ammo to my theory that Kelley was trying to help Fighting Hawks win when he let Nodaks survive the initial round of voting despite finishing 3rd.
