  1. Just a hunch I don't see the hobey committee giving the hobey baker to a freshman...
  2. I may or maynot be right, I am just being realistic. I also believe that we shouldn't and don't need to consol the tribes government on what the new nick name should be. I think the name changing is damage enough and they will have gotten what they want. Wether if it is what a majority of their people want or not. I sick and tired of this mindset of if something offends someone then it has to change. Well I am offended by the fact that Hillary Clinton thinks she deserves to be president, but that doesn' mean she is going to be kicked out of the election.
  3. I am not going to get excited yet, the Sioux have won nothing yet and championships are won in March and April.
  4. I like the VOD or DOV line they were dominant on Saturday night, I would hope they keep it together.
  5. I was not aware of this at all. That is semi impressive.
  6. C.C. is talented up front and they will be fast. The Sioux need to crash the net get the C.C. goalie off his game...
  7. I have watched the goal 100 times and I smile everytime.
  8. I am only 41 years old. They are older than that...
  9. it's on this blog article clink on my defintion of a a sieve...
  10. Aren't the Village people old?
  11. Now I have never been to a woman's game but I was under the impression that there is no checking in woman's hockey? Just wondering.
  12. Yeah your right there wasn't a question mark...
  13. I hope he shows Julien he has made a mistake by not playing him...
  14. I was watching that game the other night the injury looked real painful and you could tell it was serious. I hope he gets well soon...
  15. I was watching the Chicago Blackhawks play on my DVR and Toews is scoring goal after highlite goal this season. They are things of beauty.
  16. Did you want me to finish the sentence for you? You know the college professor, ussually in the arts and sciences, lets say sociology, antrhopology, you know the type, the hand wringing, pc of a ________________persuasion... I know exactly what your talking about. I have a masters degree in this crap and they tripped all over them selves trying to lecture us on the evils of the fighting Sioux name and none of them were a Native American. One went so far to call the UND name a red faced minstral (sp). That academia.
  17. It's basically a death sentence. No NCAA playoffs hosted by us ever.
  18. PCM I love your work and have no bone to pick with you but I think respectfully there is no chance 0, Nada, Nix, Nine, Nay the name will stay fighting Sioux the pro-name change people right now as we are discussing the issue. the Pro-name change people are probably lobbying the two tribals governments; saying don't cave, don't cave, don't cave. In fact would bet you the minute that settlement was announced the full court press went into motion. Seriously, the tribal governments might get some heat from their own people, they will not budge. I would also incourage the powers to be to offer nothing, I like some of the proposals that have been suggested. Simply ask the Tribes hey what do you have to say about the nick name. Take their advisement then drop it period. We are living in a fantasy world if we think Ron his Horse Thunger will ever change his mind or let the Nick name come to a FULL TRIBAL VOTE of all the people that want to vote on the issue. While I hate the settlement, because I think UND gave up way to much to the NCAA, I do like the fact the arena won't be razed, so that part of the UND history will be there forever, in fact no one can stop us from wearing, or chanting Sioux. Hoever, we must keep our pride as a University and finally accept that we are living on borrowed time. I am also still not voting for the present AG.
  19. 0 chance. Never, unless He!! freezes over. That is the part that I don't like about the settlement, if they had gone with dropping the fighting I would liked the agreement more. Both side of the argument are so polarized, having editorials like the one that were written today at the herald don't help. I would start the process to adopt a name that is acceptable for the Alumni, I wouldn't spend a lot of time consoling the people that forced this change I believe they have done enough, they got their big win. I would also suggest Flickertails not be part of the process. I believe like some have stated here UND and the state of ND goes to the tribal councils and we try to negoiate it going to be precieved as strong arming by UND and it is just going to get uglier... I can only imagine what the pro-name change people will spin this.
  20. I have to agree with you he played for the Badgers. But being from G.F. you kind of hope he does well. I personally thought that brooks has looked the best of the three Vikings Quarterbacks and his untimely fumble on a drive at the end of the game that cost the vikes the game, I believe put Brooks in the dog house. I think that Childress is one of the worst coaches in the NFL. I believe it is only a matter of time before Brad Childress is shown the door... I would wish Ziggy would consider it soon... I had a discussion with a co-worker and he was oh well, its part of the plan and the vikes are building for the future. I asked him how long do think Viking fans are going to stomach this _#!t. If the Vikes have a losing season which I think they will Childress is going to be run out of town on a rail. Heck Tice was better than this crap.
  21. so are we preaching to the choir then?
  22. The rapid heart rate I get from reading her article are a form of exercise...
  23. I never looked at Farmers as being a good mascot.
  24. It was in UND's lawsuit paperwork that was released when this first went to court. It still seems the NCAA is being inconsistant.
  25. I don't follow recruits that much but these two names seen awfully familier. Are they related to another kid that has committed to the Sioux?
