Writing was on the wall when, after they re-opened, management made no effort to reach out to the community. Would have required one heck of an apology and a crap-ton of coupons.

Don't know about you all, but this MacGyver-stuff is EXACTLY how I like to settle in and watch TV. One step removed from straining to see blurry green boobs on an old-school satellite dish.

Guess I won't hold my breath for the swimsuit issue. (Too soon?)

With no context about (1) what NHL superstars have done or can do in the same controlled test, or (2) whether there is a correlation between such tests as a HS senior and NHL success, or (3) whether test results across the board for hockey players typically improve with age, this information is pretty much worthless. Still fun to think about a potential world-class hockey player apparently lacking in sheer athleticism, but time will tell on this kid.

Because 15 months after President Kelley's retirement, and after the last on-topic post here, and two presidents later, someone fired off an unprovoked anti-Kelley rant full of unsubstantiated BS which generated no discussion. And then, a full two months later, someone wants to politicize Kelley's presidency, in flagrant violation of board rules, and which, 15 hours later, has generated no discussion. Move the **** on. #shouldabeenamoderator

This thread is the digital embodiment of the mentally-deranged homeless guy slumped over on the subway who occasionally wakes and erupts with incoherent blather. Time to lock it down.

Wait until you see the "Beneath the Feathers" centerfold...we (finally!) get the Hawk's measurements, inspirations, and turn-offs.

Is Bayou Hawks available? Cajun Hawks, perhaps?

Complete hack piece. Less than a generation removed from a football title; only a handful of years into full DI membership. It's not like UND didn't have a solid footprint at DII. I hope the LAT didn't actually pay for this garbage. The arena, the nickname, and Ralph's personal life are low-hanging fruit and, frankly, as story points are old and tired. Journalism is long dead.

Getting outscored by UNO will do that to you.

Suddenly feels like a gross overpayment.

Radio guy keeps saying "Yoshi" ... this series needs Mario sound effects.

Too cheesy...we only steal goal songs.

I didn't. San Diego State is just a frequent go-to whenever I want to highlight the folly of cherry-picking villains in the nickname debate.

Still waiting for the Aztec lobby to mobilize. Under Citizens United, I think extinct cultures can form PACs.

They also brought mice back from the dead, and killed people on a regular basis. #thatsthegreenmiledummy

Where's, uh, Mrs. Stanwyk? In her cabana, señor. Oh, yeah. I'm supposed to meet her there. It's cabana six, right? Cabana one. One, right.

Amtrak apologist here. The Amtrak debate is old and tired. Most people conveniently forget how much highways and air travel are subsidized. Free markets only work on a level playing field. Political hot potatoes that they are, long-distance trains are here to stay, and I think that's a good thing.

Pax numbers way down. http://www.grandforksherald.com/news/4272017-flying-low-boarding-down-20-percent-grand-forks-airport File this under "Huge Surprise." Has anyone priced Delta out of GFK recently? Holy hell! Monopoly pricing to say the least. Makes those 1- or 5-hour jaunts down the highway seem like a no-brainer, even with a hotel stay.

Emrick just called out all of Ottawa. "First conference final game that was not a sellout in 10 years." May well be true, but it felt awkward.

Nashville fans taunting the empty net. Always an interesting tactic.

So the first 40 or so words were just the lead-in. Got it. YOU missed the entire point of my post, which was that she wasted 40 words saying jack squat. Are you her son or husband or something?

This update on the Hyslop pool contains possibly the best (or worst, depending on your point of view) example of empty speech I have seen in a long, long time. Give that woman a prize or something.

UND football helmets and possible future UND logo combinations upon said UND football helmets and the incorporation of throwbacks into UND football uniforms "doesn't really have anything to do with UND football"? Thank God you're here to keep us on task.
