  1. No, its ok for minorities to throw them around all of the time without consequences.
  2. What about the Merrimack Warriors? They also have a native as their monkier/logo.
  3. Have a lot of respect for the Maine program, they are quite simular to our program. Thouht it was a classy act to put Walsh on the back of the Jerseys for the auction.
  4. I think that is the 188th out of Grand Forks, if so they are deployed in Iraq.
  5. Lets hope that this isn't true.
  6. I was told by someone I work with this morning that they knew one of the persons that was on the construction companies (one of the Foremen) that built the Ralph. Apparently there was dynamite on site to blow up the new REA if they changed the Fighting Sioux name. Also, another thing I heard today is there is apparently something in the will that says they could actually destroy the Ralph if the name is changed. I doubt this one and believe it to be a urban myth but, you never know. Does anyone know about this?
  7. Jumping to conclusion again. I don't think anyone has really suggested that. Not officially.
  8. I guess winning 7 NCAA titles doesn't make UND high profile.
  9. Sounds like Charles better get his butt down to Fort Totten and mend some fences. The woman from Fort Totten said I never met him. There something key that Myra said, the Elders and the Kids like the name, its about 50-50. Elders in AI culture have the last word a lot of times. That is probably why this vote was cancelled or didn't happen. I personally am not oppose to having freshmen recieve classes on racial sensitivities. And what is wrong with the athletes that wear the uniform with the Fighting Sioux logo on it going to the reservation and mingle with the kids and doing some out reach. Its is pretty clear what UND has to do. The Fort Totten Sioux just threw UND a life line by not having the vote so now UND needs not to screw this up and do what we promised.
  10. UND is going to slap the NCAA with a law suit. I was wondering why CMU and Utah were given exemptions already and UND wasn't.
  11. Sounds like the UND professors are strong arming the people over at Fort Totten if you ask me. Hum...
  12. Nope Besides I think Blaiser is too tough to be pushed out.
  13. I see the name Ryan Martens-RC (5/12/05) Quesnel (BCHL)? I don't remember him signing or seeing anything about him.
  14. Look at the Minnesota Gophers last year, the Pylons were young but the Gophers still made the Frozen Four. I think this years team Defense is better than that group so I am actually very optimistic. Lee > Hagemo and Chorney > Galegoski. So I think UND will be fine.
  15. I highly doubt it. I think UND would definately still play at the Ralph, even if UND caved to the P.C. Nazis and decided to change the name. Besides, where would UND play hockey games at? REA isn't going to let the arena remain empty. The old REA is out of date and would have to be remodeled to play in it, I believe that I heard that about 250,000 or proubly more that they would
  16. I was wondering if they were going to push him out why did they sign him to a three year contract. I think the University had to pay him a severence package. Oh well, good luck to Craig, he seems like a nice enough guy.
  17. From listening to Tim and Sweg this morning it sounds like SCSU pushed him out or something to that matter. I guess there really isn't the best time to leave.
  18. No I get the last word.
  19. I would like to see the documentation that backs up this claim. Any way you could post that on the web here so we can view it.
  20. Hum, that is an interesting article. It appears that not all AI are against the name.
  21. Diggler is right. The person that filled in for him last year wasn't half a talented as big scott. I am hoping that Johnny Lee Rivers doesn't do the PA announcing either. UND needs a motivator for this position.
