This turned into a AL lovefest again not much about the sbohe
-
& maybe it's just the right thing to do KEEP THE NAME
-
me too - I bet it's a big contributing factor - plus other run a muck oversight
-
I would not want to be in a conference that thinks our name is racist - obviously they have not made peace or have terrible guilt about the natives near them. UND has been nothing but proud of the name & respected & helped Native Americans (programs at UND) & now because of threats from outside that do not understand, some of you want to give up & change Shameful
-
Well how they have handled the name - I'm not impressed I bet they have screwed up other things based on their lack of understanding http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/231064/ Are either of these good ideas ?

Keyword = Comply - No Sioux during ncaa events - most events are not ncaa - we can be ND for playoffs ncaa can kiss our azz the rest of the year Teams who refuse to play us can also kiss our azz - I think they are the ones being racist I thought the report was OK - We need Bill ORiley to get on our side - the spin coming from most of you worry warts would make him eerp
-
All we have to do is have one that just says ND for the rare occasion it is a ncaa tournament Not a big deal & worth changing the Name & Logo
-
you left out the ncaa athletic events part - not a lot of them - to get everyone all worked up over (you would think brainy people would have better common sense & understanding - oh that's right book smart folks can lack in many skills & need to led & fear seems to work on them)
-
Just don't wear the logo or use the name during ncaa events (not the end of the world) http://www.devilslakejournal.com/newsnow/x1142166915/NCAA-Dont-bring-Fighting-Sioux-name-to-playoffs
-
It is not over - but would have been if UND Admin. had not been stopped - so let it play out
-
But he would of fought to the end to save the name
-
I would love his thoughts to - but I think he knew Ralph pretty good & was very respectful of his wishes
-
I should have said when SnottM freezes over

when the world ends

UND doesn't have to forfeit playoff games. They won't be able to host playoff games. They can't wear the nickname or logo during the playoffs, and the NCAA won't use the nickname or logo in any way. UND would just be known as UND or North Dakota. UND doesn't use the nickname or logo on all uniforms, and the state law doesn't require it. They can wear uniforms that just say UND, North Dakota, or use the interlocking ND logo. UND can officially be known as the Fighting Sioux (which meets the state law), but not have the name or logo on display in any way during the playoffs. However, if UND does try to use the nickname or logo in any way during the playoffs, they could forfeit the games and have to reimburse the NCAA for any expenses. which will be a cake walk to do - follow their assnine rules until this is done one & for all but don't use it as fear to drop the name
-
That letter is the most offensive yet (total garbage making things up) & to me would inspire Spirit Lake to fight even harder

blah Blah BLAH "Flogging a dead horse (alternatively beating a dead horse in some parts of the Anglophone world) is an idiom that means a particular request or line of conversation is already foreclosed or otherwise resolved, and any attempt to continue it is futile; or that to continue in any endeavour (physical, mental, etc.) is a waste of time as the outcome is already decided." here is another one for you You really think we will change any minds on all this

"Cowards are usually seen to have avoided or refused to engage in a confrontation or struggle which has been deemed good or righteous by the wider culture in which they live. On a more mundane level, the label may be applied to those who are regarded as too frightened or overwhelmed to defend their rights or those of others from aggressors in their lives."

If that is true then our Legal System is even more Pathetic than I thought it was

nice article http://www.grandforksherald.com/event/article/id/230550/group/homepage/

How long if ever will it be that Fans are as loyal ? If the name changes ? I would say a long time because most true Fans will never drop the Fighting Sioux Name (at least in Hockey) other sports

Lets play offensive hockey for 3 FULL periods
