  1. Just creeping around a few months later. Agree with this guy, the guards looked good I remember. The bigs didn't look so good yet. Young team, see you guys next year.
  2. I am saying, it is a nickname that has brought too much crap onto UND, I dont know if you guys are familiar with that page i put on here, I am guessing you guys know that UND's Brass has been sorta kinda working to get rid of the name for 15 years or so(thats kinda how the page made it sound, I may have misread it). I'm not saying be happy about it, not at all. But is it worth a ton of money in lawyers and fighting a losing battle? I'm not sure about that. As for the Farmers, we are the Agricultural school, I'd prefer to be called the Aggies but it is one in the same. I really like our nickname but I LOVE NDSU and if the powers that be decided we should be the Aggies or Farmers, it'd take a little getting used to, but I think we'd embrace it. Except for LakesBison(check him out on Bisonville, dude should be in the State Hospital in Jamestown, f*ckin crazy), he wouldn't be having it.
  3. http://www.und.edu/org/bridges/history.html While I am not too big on the NCAA stepping on people's toes. This und page sure seems like the nickname has been an issue for too long of a time. Just brings bad press and what not. Maybe just find a nice animal from the plains....excluding my Bison of course haha.
  4. Excuse me, North Dakota legislature. Whoopsie dasies.
  5. Its a nickname....I think its time to give up. I will put myself on the record and say I do not think they should have to change it. But its been a ton of time and effort and bringing congress into it is a waste of time.
  6. Ok, I am a Bison fan(look at my name), and I really do not think UND should have to lose their name(though I am thoroughly getting a kick out of this), but at what point do you just say its a nickname? At the end of the day, you have all been spending ludacris amounts of money trying to keep this name and getting North Dakotan's to waste our tax dollars on getting this thing passed. You guys had years to get the tribes to agree, and you couldn't even get one of the tribes to take a vote on it. Don't waste your breath typing a bunch of hate stuff to me or anything. Just saying......
  7. Hey guys, I am not here to troll or anything. Just a big Bison fan and that means I sort've feel like I should keep tabs on the School up North while I am at it. Anyway, just wondering what you guys think about your team these next few years? As we have all noticed the Sioux have never really been a football school, of course they've had some good years here and there(2001 or whenever they won their title?) but all in all, you guys typically are not a great team. NDSU just got done with a small rough patch and are definitely trending back up to where their recruiting and tradition suggests we ough to be. Good running game, good defense, typical Bison football. I noticed that UND has had a few really rough years and I'll be honest I don't know any of the reasons why they have been bad or why you guys are optomistic/pessimistic about their chances the next few years which hopefully leads up to a Home and Home series with the Herd. As for the move to the Big Sky, I think it is good and bad for you guys. For style of play, Big Sky is pretty finesse which looking at your team, probably is a better matchup for you than the Missouri Valley(Physical Physical Physical), bad news is that you guys are not even remotely close to any of the teams and don't currently look to have many chances to compete(Montana, Montana St.), and from top to bottom they dont have a whole lot of depth, after the top couple schools it gets pretty weak. And I don't want to hear any comments about the Eastern Washington game haha, bad luck and a rough first quarter and an embarassing last couple minutes will do that to you I guess. Just curious what you guys think about your guys chances to be a decent team again. As much as I'd like to say good luck you all know I wouldn't mean it haha
