Would give anything to hear Bucci and/or Barry drop a "Pac Rim Job" during tonight's game.

Actually, the studio schtick was starting to get a little stale...methinks they had run out of things to talk about. Pre-packaged video content = savior. Also, meal- and potty-break for "talent."

"Bucci and Barry" sounds like a really bad morning radio show.

Record for earliest Gameday thread launch? 12-oh-something AM has got to be close.

That makes about as much sense as killing random Mexicans because you got sick eating at Chipotle.

Deadspin commenters bringing the funny:

Says an awful lot, doesn't it.

A sure-fire, three-step process for SME to ward off the inevitable "hate and indifference": 1. Live in NYC. 2. Make a ton of money on the job. 3. Avoid SiouxSports.com like the plague. I truly believe that >99% of the "hate and indifference" is perpetuated by a handful of posters here. I have not found that this board is reflective of the community at large. From the huge disconnect in nickname polling to the utter lack of SS bile, venom, and vitriol among real grown-up humans you meet on the street, I feel sorry for the casual reader here who might assume that this site accurately depicts the name-and-logo climate in GF.

One man's waste is another man's 'opportunity for savings.' They may have to switch from imitation crab meat to imitation imitation crab meat, and so forth.

Is that a firm understanding? Isn't this usually a decision they make closer to game time?

One year removed from the FF...

Character? Honoring commitments made? BMOC for another year? Co-eds instead of small-market puck-chasers? Living out the perfect example of why the anti-college sports crowd is wrong? Up-and-coming athletes can buy insurance against catastrophic injuries, but no amount of money will buy back the collegiate experience. Why is leaving early so well tolerated?

Now that's one sexual verb-object combination I've never heard, and I figured I'd used just about all of them. Come hither, wench, and deliver upon me fellatio.

What, Lorraine? What?

Sorry, your password must contain at least three of the following: - numbers - lower case letters - special characters - upper case letters

Best part of cake, IMO.

He's down! Safely, too. Captivating stuff. Thanks for the tip!

Hmmmm. http://www.grandforksherald.com/opinion/letters/3990525-letter-military-maneuvers-startle-already-stressed-und-campus Meanwhile, at UND...

Watching some basketball and wondering... - How does "March Madness" not inflame the passions of advocates for the mentally ill? - Doesn't "Rounds" ridicule the obese? - Could the gratuitous use of the phrase "low seeds" be insensitive to the impotent? - Does "Sweet Sixteen" sound an awful lot like a pro-pedophilia movement? Maybe the NCAA should form a committee or something to look into this.

I suspect it varies from league to league, but I have no doubt that there are at least some resources for needy families just about everywhere. (As hard as it may be to ask for help, that's all it takes.) USA Hockey also sponsors a number of initiatives. Youth hockey parents are, in my experience as a travel parent, some of the most caring and generous people you will find, notwithstanding what they are already laying out for their own player(s).

Hiring college coaches is now a thing…ADs everywhere are clenching.

http://www.inforum.com/letters/3987559-letter-choices-hockey-parents-preclude-smarter-opportunities My response to this guy…"Kids can't skate, huh?" In all seriousness, though. Does this guy have any clue what youth hockey -- and I'm thinking specifically of the recently concluded, 3-week Squirt International -- does in terms of local and regional economic impact in Fargo? Hotels? Restaurants? Teams, parents, and families that literally fly in from afar? Maybe if he opened his eyes, he would realize that the overall impact of the "hockey religion" is actually creating additional opportunities for his children, albeit indirect. And hockey "cathedrals" tend to do more than host hockey in their respective school districts and communities. Performances? Graduations? Recreational ice and non-ice uses? Emergency shelters? Not to mention that they are a source of pride for many. This guy needs to go and see a few HS football stadiums in Texas.

I caught this the other day when re-visting the 2005 press release announcing the NCAA policy in another topic, and it probably does bear repeating in this thread. This school song scrubbing exercise is more than just hypersensitivity on the part of NDSU, who definitely likes to host championship events on a regular basis.

Loving Sioux, loving Fighting Hawks, and most of all loving UND are NOT mutually exclusive. I am not criticizing anyone for loving Sioux. I am critical of people who seem to go out of their way to complain about Fighting Hawks and a logo they haven't even seen yet, all in the name of some self-proclaimed healthy love of Sioux and, strangely, out of love for UND.
