UNDBIZ

Then please explain your statement that Hak "had to admit" the name should be retired.

Did you ever stop and think maybe people are afraid for valid reasons? Fear is a necessary and useful emotion, just ask the deer that wasn't afraid to run in front of my car last fall.... oh wait.... nevermind.

Yeah you guys, he was going to be fired if he didn't toe the company line and Hak knew that because of his abysmal record as a head coach at UND he never would've been able to get another job!!!

You probably won't notice them because you're not an actual fan of the team.....

Yeah I posted that to show that even in the NBA players are punished for skipping practice.

I fail to see the problem here....

I get the feeling AlmostHeavenIn2011 is back.....

Pretty sure Watchmaker is the parent who goes to the school and yells at the teacher when her kids get bad grades. Newsflash..... it's your fault, not the teacher's.

You people keep bringing this up. If only 10% of the tribe voted, that must mean 90% of the tribe doesn't care enough about the name either way to vote. Saying the vote is invalid because only 70% of the 10% who voted were in favor is a fool's argument.

Actually it would make North Dakota look like a bunch of idiots.....

Although I appreciate what you're trying to say here, the NCAA is not the government.....

It's something the state is often required to post. Do I think the world will be a better place for it?? No. As for the Sioux logo vs NCAA reference, do I like that that NCAA is telling UND what to do? No. Do I agree with the NCAA's policy? No. Do I think the policy is racist? Yes. Does it matter anymore? No. The state and now the people of SL have both tried and failed to have the NCAA policy overturned. It's not going to happen. At this point, all we can do is move on and do what is best for UND and the athletic teams we love.

I don't understand how you sit on your computer making assumptions about a person and his family that you've never even met. I'm getting the impression from your posts that you had a difficult childhood, but that is no excuse to assume all other parents abuse their kids.

Blasphemy

If she could have cared less, then he gave her the option to sit for a half rather than being embarrassed in front of her teammates (because apologizing is so embarrassing). You seem to have a bigger issue with the fact that this guy coaches his daughter's team than anything else. Most parents I know who coach their kids' team do so out of a sense of having to chip in, not just so they can be in control. I don't know if you're dad was mean to you growing up or what, but not all parents are the same.

Where did he say he's abused his daughter?? By threatening to bench her for the first half of a soccer game because she skipped practice?? Any respectable coach would do the same.

I can't believe this didn't pan out.....

And after 2 hard-fought periods, we've gotta score of 2-0 in favor of Oxbow. We'll bring you back for the third after a short commercial break....

I hope you're correct....

So a state law isn't as bad as a state flag?? (I also don't see the sanctions being expanded to ndsu, just questioning the reason stated)

Is this on the Forum's website or??

I'm thinking the vote only being 3 to 1 on this site is bad news for UND when it comes to the statewide vote. If only 3/4 of the people who are educated on the topic vote to save UND, I can't imagine how bad it's going to be once you add in the average ND voter.

I'll pay for the gas....

Irrelevant. Only LakesDave is allowed an opinion.
