Goon

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.

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.

It's basically a death sentence. No NCAA playoffs hosted by us ever.

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.

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.

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.

so are we preaching to the choir then?

The rapid heart rate I get from reading her article are a form of exercise...

I never looked at Farmers as being a good mascot.

It was in UND's lawsuit paperwork that was released when this first went to court. It still seems the NCAA is being inconsistant.

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?

Actually that was an interesting interview because TH asked him to comment on the refing and he didn't and they also talked about how much muscle he gained in the off season. Radke also said his role is basically to be an agitator or at least that is how I interpreted his comments.

I can hear Moss saying how do you like me now as he wins a superbowl...

I look at what the Vikes have become and I am disgusted, I thought Tice was a lot beter coach than what we have now. The bigging of the end was when Moss got traded. I think the Vikes would be a better team if they still has dante and randy on the sidelines.

I am on the opinion that Jackson will never amount to much as a NFL quarterback. I think Brooks is not getting a fair shake when it comes to Childress who is basically on is way out and may actually listen to the fans and see Brooks start a game. I want to see him go the whole game and see what he can do. The vikes suck really bad this season and I think the club has admitted that they are alreadya looking for quarterbacks, funny how Garcia would have looked a lot better than the other two guys that have gotten starts for the vikes (13 and 7)

I thought I would get this going. Who should the vikes start.

After Further review I still think the Packers suck... However, since Childress arrived on scene the Vikes have brought new meaning to the word...

That 6-0 spanking the next nice seemed to shut them up a bit Actions speek louder than words.

I am actually thinking about going to the one in St Paul in 2008.

I hope the Sioux Bury the Huskies when they come to the REA. If anything I think the Sioux now have extra incentive to beat them.with the antics of their fans..

Damn how do I get my tickets

I would have loved to seen this on Cops. It would have been some classic stuff.

Doreen Yellow Bird said this Seems that miss Yellowbird has made some serious alegations maybe if your are going to level these charges you should have specifics and evidence.

That will be a trap fest and very boring hockey.

Cornell and their whiny coach is a joke.
