What a Crock - Just cause we don't act like students - Give me a break Sit down & watch the Game & chant or Bang a Gong or what ever turns your Crank - Just leave the rest of us real hockey fans alone

Well he isn't doing much this year

Saying they want the two upper sections on both sides of the Bar (organ bar) on the Sioux end that they shoot twice I have 4 seats in that corner (306) & do not want to move to center Ice Go to the other end I'm sure as long as they don't want my seats Who Cares

Who else was on the line with Spirko on last yr ? Wasn't he our third best scorer ?

Whos line was Spirko on last yr ? Obvisouly other teams know how to play us to win or trounce us

& the whole place in general was loud (when they could be) There were alot of students there I'm not one to yell cheers or sing etc. - I watch just about every second when the puck is in play But I go as crazy as the next guy when we score & I clap at nice plays or big hits I'm just wondering how much (if any) the crowd makes in the outcome of a game ? ? ?

They over all had better shots & one lame goal got in Their 1st goal was a goal

Penn & Teller on their BS show did a episode on PC & Diversity & made SCSU look really Bad Those Folks are really wacked & they spent a fortune to some really wacked consultant to try & Help them

PCM I agree 100% How & what is there to compromise ? Profanity is not Cool or going to be allowed Standing & blocking someones view is totally wrong & should not be allowed If anyone is intoxicated to a point of bothering those around you, they should be warned once & then removed Unless you can get the REA to reconstruct the arena, to make standing OK & not take seats away from people who already have them. It is not a realistic complaint I'm getting really tired of having to stand up & let people in & out of my row, while the puck is in play Need more & better ushers / security & trust me this is where this is headed "You can't solve problems for people who do not want their problems solved"

I just have to comment on "Grand Forks would not exist without UND" UND is a HUGE part of Grand Forks & Welcome by most all But have you ever been here in the summer ? It is a much quieter community & seems to do alright It's like saying - Without Government ND would not exsist - Who would live up here without Government support ? From Farming to Electricity to Roads, you name it, would it be here without taxes ? & the support the community gives to make our community livable ...Maybe even an exceptional place to live We are all here to support one another - Or should be - Don't like it....... leave Some of you need to go see the real world & I bet you will someday wish you lived in a community as nice as GF

Maybe if were absolutely Forced to change our Name "Ducks" would work ? ? ? & then we should pass a law that if the Gophers sweep us at home - only 1/2 as many Duck hunters are allowed that next Fall UND Fighting Ducks

Thats why all you Gophers have to come to ND to shoot a duck

I like a good knucklehead & I do always seem to watch him when he is on the ice I don't mind his antics (as long as he is smart & Does Not Get Caught) & they ultimately help the team, not hurt it. Keep Smiling Mike ..........

I know he is good but come on he must be triple jointed & have eyes all the way around his head

I go to Hockey games to get away from Logic & the real world & yell & watch the game -(I'm into every play & every moment of the game - Not to socialize or get excited about what the students are doing. But don't stand up in front of me all night, or you will hear about it, no matter who you are. If everyone sits everyone can see - it is the ultimate selfishness, to jump up & block the view of others - let alone stand all the time

I see Phil has Saturday Night Fever But I'd still play Jordan on TGIF's

I remember going to a NorthStars game out by the old Met stadium & if anyone got stupid in there - they drug you out of the stands & out the door - It actually was entertaining

Tazers ..............Now that would have entertainment value I bet they tazer a couple idiots a game & the crowd would go Nutz & show replays on the Big Screen

Diggler .............Duct tape

The ones doing that stuff don't read here & most likely won't go to the meeting either
