LOL - Hit a JERK! Go back to Bisonville loser
-
mind your own f*cking business! - like why downtown Fargo has become a dangerous crime sh*thole after 12 o'clock on any given night? Congrats METRO on becoming the weiner city NEXT to Minneapolis for random crime and violence. You're really looking UP!

Patience - there's still a lot of details to work out...

Yeah I've heard that too. Too bad. Rock solid leader at a tough time for his town - he did a hard job very well - not perfect but who could be in that situation. He can always be proud of how he turned a catastrophe into opportunity that now includes a Food Network Star saving an iconic EGF landmark... https://www.grandforksherald.com/business/molly-yeh-officially-announces-new-restaurant-bernies-in-whiteys-underground-building So great to see!

Oh sorry you mistook this thread for the "BISON SOOOPERSTARS - WHERE ARE THAY NOW?" thread on BSville - honest mistake I'm sure. PS - Just nabbed my Jerry Seinfeld tickets for the Fritz in September!!! I hear Fargo media is all agog about ROB SCHNEIDER (rob schneider??) coming to "THE METRO" - way to go LOL! Only big time for THE METRO

Interested and will try it too down the road. Wife and I went to see Maverick on a rainy holiday - 2pm matinee totally sold out and they were running a new show every half hour. Nice to see the theatre biz back! Overhead some campers from the campground saying they were glad there was a theatre and restaurants nearby on a crappy camp day on a holiday weekend. Well done EGF on that whole urban campground concept! One of the most brilliant post-flood moves engineered by former mayor Lynn Stauss. Haven't heard about him for years - anyone know his status?
-
Simplot workers with pets will have it made in the shade I guess. Thanks for the info
-
We noticed this the other day too - not the business we expected either and with the odd visual being half a block off the highway. The Mill has establishments near them for the shift workers. Maybe the same thing for Simplot workers? I have no idea

Very cool project and many thanks to Mr. Gisi for an investment for downtown Grand Forks that comes from the heart because he loves this community. It will be an amazing asset - and another building block to the goal of an amazing vibrant downtown.

So he's the Woody Woodpecker of SS??? An instigator? PS - he probably wouldn't hate that nickname because he'd think we're talking about his penis
-
Think I heard the timeline was early June - stay tuned!

Thank You! Dialing around tonight and found a Midco rebroadcast of an early season game. Alex and Jake? Rock solid broadcast team! Alex has prospects above the regional cable level - CBS Sports likes him a lot so we're lucky to have him. Izzo? ugh! A basement Bison troll. Why would he EVER support UND? Technical coverage? A dozen cams with cooperation from the Ralph - tell me please where it lacks? OR better yet tell me what 'DAY would do better? They wouldn't and couldn't. Graphics, stats and flow with NO spelling errors?? What a shocker! Watch any episode of the local news to see how the kids these days can't proofread or spell to save their lives. Interesting story about Fighting Sioux Sports Properties and how that will affect the rfp???? How will that impact?

a LONG LONG time ago - I remember when they would draw 20,000 people and parking in a field and taking a bus to the show. Nice to see this back! Plan to attend and show some support - the base needs it.

Seems like "American" companies like Hornbachers, Sickies, et al came then bailed out on GF at the first opportunity. !@#$ them! Aldi operates thousands of grocery stores all around the world - they've figured it out. Sure it's not a place you get all the staples all the time but they have great deals at a significantly lower price - and their brands have proven to be very good. Give them a shot. Sure it's a little rough to figure out you have to put a quarter in a slot to "rent" a cart but you get it back at the end. Euro-shopping culture isn't hard - you just have to adapt. We still shop Hugo's for 80% of our groceries but it's nice to have options not generally available to us and at a discount no less.

THIS IS SERIOUS!! The china communist connection means they will be spying on Ikea in Minneapolis and probably recruit players FROM CHINA that will fart excessively and destroy the environment or at least report to their government they were trying to do that.
-
Don't worry - I'm finalizing plans for a......(WAIT FOR IT)....A New BANK on 167th Avenue South!!! aka Thompson (waiting for development applause????)
-
Missed this earlier - what he said:-)
-
That's exactly it - I don't have a problem with building strip malls I have a problem with how they can't fill them. The old Golden Corral is just now starting to get tenants after how many years?
-
The car wash on 17th and Columbia (Old Hardees) is in the same weird state of construction LIMBO -- nothing happening there either. The strip mall with House of Punjab/Noodles/Erbs and Gerbs has some new construction going on cutting their parking lot in half - guess what it is? ANOTHER STRIP MALL in the least shocking news of all time. Just what GF needs...now with LESS parking for businesses what don't move in. Perfect!
-
Dallas was a fixture at old Memorial and served UND FB for so many years - sad to hear the news and condolences to his family. He went to school with my Father in Law so he will be sad to hear the news.
-
Go the the GF city website and use their 311 reporting service. Sign up or Log in - report your issue - and BOOM it gets taken care of asap. I reported a hideous pothole near me on Monday - got a prompt reply that day saying they'd be "on it" as soon as possible. Went to work today and it was still there but later today when I headed hoem it was taken care of. Less than 48 hours from complaint to resolution. It handles a lot of complaints from potholes to abandoned bikes to !@#!$ neighbors to street lights out. The city can't be everywhere all the time but if you point out issues they will take care of them. That's a city government that works in my book!

The only thing I'll miss are Jack Michael's Animal House lines - they were epic! Biggest waste of athletic talent who thought they didn't have to do the schoolwork since Ryan Chappell - also a local kid. Wonder where he's at today?

Hopefully UND will recognize one of the so-called big "check writers" also shut down their local GF TV station entirely. Didn't just downsize it into a bureau operation that still had real people on the ground in town to cover news but completely shuttered it. (and then went on to buy a lot of regional tanking newspapers so they HAD money to spend but that's another story) I can understand Miller hedging his bets - his job is on the line too as Forum continues to turn the Herald into a glorified Tidbits - that's sad. Regarding another one of the "check writers" - KVLY maintained a GF bureau for more than 20 years but they've also bailed on GF - many years ago. They were complete and utter whores for NDSU when they had football. They would turn trick right away if they thought they could shave off the UND FB package but at what cost? Who trusts a whore? The first thing UND should be asking is what resources do you have in GF? Midco Sports has an office, studio, producers and the ability to shoot and turn around content within a 2 minute walk to the Ralph. In this great world of instant social media we live in no other bidders can claim that - the first thing they have to do is get in a car and DRIVE to Grand Forks. I would hope some of those considerations would be considered above just the dollar sign on the check.

What's next? Southerners trying to use the same bathrooms as NORTHERNERS? Tip to DGF - maybe you could be good at sports if you didn't pick a mascot that has such LOSER implications in the first place. Maybe it's more about the HAT than the mustache? Just asking...
-
People with knowledge of Old time EGF downtown know the original Whiteys relocated after the flood into a property known as the "FAIL APARTMENTS" - no !@#$ - I will need a little local knowledge backup on this please? Hopefully Molly can overcome this curse....
