  1. That is a great idea, could fire up the crowd, maybe a picture of a B.C. player crying too, that would really top it all off. Whoops maybe not...
  2. Here is an interesting poll in that the Denver Channel web page sited and it can be found next to the article. Do you think American Indias are too sensitive or are justified in being offended? Choice Votes Percentage of 240 Votes Too sensitive. 148 62% I'd be mad too, if I were them. 71 30% I'm not sure. 21 9%
  3. The faculty adviser to the paper, Morris Brown, also apologized to the Indian student club. He said the paper would print a front-page retraction. Brown cited his status as the only black professor on campus as reason for the club members to believe his apology. "If I were white, yeah, you could be skeptical, but as a black man and a brother, I know how you feel," Brown said. "If I were Caucasian, I wouldn't expect you to listen." Plain and simple its a mistake that should have never happened. There is no other way of putting this, point blank and to the point the newspaper editor and the faculty advisor should have caught this mistake, there is no excuse for this happening. That being said, why can
  4. I am hoping UND kicks B.C.'s A$$ that is all I care about. I think both teams will be evenly matched...
  5. Apparently they didn't see the fight where Hale worked Number 23 from MSU Mankato like a clown.
  6. Not true. You might want to check your source. Also notice that Ranfranz and Sofie aren't here this season. I think they are talking about the Basketball player.
  7. I will give you two guess and the first three don't count... I will be shooting holes in the sky and probably hurrying home to see the game. 17 Days unitl Ducktober.
  8. I also believe that Tyler Palmoscino will get some playing time and will be in the line up. I believe even over or interchanged with Canady/Genoway in the line up. One reason is that Tyler is a beter passer than the two players listed and a better skater, Tyler also isn't going to hurt you by taking a questionable penalty.
  9. Work...

    Optimism

    I am hoping off season and the memories of the last season made them meaner, angry, and ready to take some more retribution.
  11. Actually Phoniex, These feminist left wingers want to ring their hand and tell us how wrong we are. You know its the angry, evil, white, heterosexual, repressive, double YY, gun totting, male. They (the militant liberal feminist) want to persuade us to change our views to their misinformed perspective/side of the story. I always tell them no I don't I have already formed my opinioin and have decided your wrong. I honestly don't time to listen to their garbage. I mean really with hockey, hunting, golf, work what else is there.
  12. Actually I see both sides of this issue. But I think A guy like Dean would have a lot of the same views as the Name change crowd... An anything goes forum would be fun like USCHO cafe...
  13. To the Moderator: The whole debate behind changing the name is a poltical agenda, so in esence the argument is purely political. Its about pro-name versus anti-name. A very small number of people on the left (left wing extremists, Hoff, Means, et el) are trying to get the majority of people the Pro-name crowd to change to the fighting Sioux name. You can't get anymore political than that. So in essence in what you were saying is you didn't like the message and decided to shoot the messenger... I think you pulled the plug a little prematurely, but hey what ever.
  14. This just proves how bad the NSIC is. UND proves nothing by demolishing UMC, and why would someone want to pay good money to watch a sleeper like that, I chose to go Goose hunting instead. IF we are going to play an NSIC team lets at least play BSU or UMD. In fact UMC doesn't belong on the same field as UND. UMC couldn't beat most division III opponents... In looking at the scores from yesterdays games, Minnesota Morris, SW State, UMC, Moorhead State got killed in Non-Conference football games, Moorhead State lost to a mediocre Division IIII team. Division Two football is slowly becoming a very poor brand of Football, UND maybe should look to moving up to Division 1AA too.

    One its hard to lure geese and ducks wearing Blaze orange. Second, I agree if you can dodge the bullets great weekend to hunt ducks

    HEY Dagies, Do you guys hit the Funkley Bar when you go deer hunting? I hear it can get wild up there During the deer season.
  18. I am not sure that I would give this site a lot of credence. Its more of a editorial type web page, I mean look at their rankings from last season there were a joke.
  19. I suppose it has a bigger sweet spot.
  20. There is one down side to that statement. It also means that summer is coming to an end and we will be trading in golf clubs for snow shovels...
  21. True Fighting Sioux fans do not cheer for the Gophers under any circumstances. Thought of that makes my skin crawl, and its like cheering for the Green Bay Packers...
  22. You bring up some really good points. Think of it this way. If Clinton was a centrist Democrat, how scarey would Howard Dean be as president, Dean makes Johnny Hoff look sensible (no wait a minute), Dean scares me even more than Hillary and Goron, and I am sure we all remember Clinton's shenanigans, the guy was a pathalogical lier and he couldn't keep his zipper up, and he tax the living crap out of us... By definition I believe that Howard Dean is a socialist, and he has made it no secrete that he would tax the crap out of the country. Howard Dean reeks of class warfare, he is a divider. I am affraid that none of us would be able to own a gun (pretty hard to go hunting in Ducktober without a gun). Better yet you would have to pile your dog and decoys into your Yugo to get to the field. Nice thing is there are too many checks and balances to let that happen.
  23. I think I know what he is talking about but he has the wrong schools. I think the guy is refering to Warroad and there were a couple of their players that came from Thief River Falls. Ala Wyette (sp) Smith.
  24. What the heck happened there anyone have any details. Wow, this is a shocker...
  25. Thats just it. There are very few that are actually for changing the name. But we have a few hand wringing/half witt professors from the Social Sciences that have nothing better to do, trying to convience the rest of the school they are wrong in supporting the Fighting Sioux name. Then you end up with loose cannons like Johnny Hoff and a few others fueling the flames of discontent. The Herald thinks this is news but its nothing more than a small minority. Notice no one is listening to these people lately, the name is going no where...
