Ding Dong probably the WORST talk radio personality in the history of Grand Forks was FIRED by KNOX - GOOD RIDDANCE! The LITTLE SHRILL MAN is finally GONE from the GF airwaves. He brought NOTHING to GF talk radio but hateful small minded, conspiracy based rhetoric from a constipated angry individual. He was always negative and did no prep for his shows - mostly just a personal bitch fest spewing hate along the way. We don't need that here. BYE BYE LEE and FU! No one should be that angry all the time - sad! Thanks to JT for realizing people were tuning out of KNOX in droves because of this caustic a-hole (I assume advertisers also) and doing his job as a GM. You weren't perfect in your days on air but at least you have some common sense about local talk radio. Noah has a listenable show but he needs to do more local content and not so much esoteric "Conservative v Liberal" theory. KNOX should be LOCAL talk radio. The Herald is on life-support. WDAY barely gives a sh*t about GF. We need a place for local talk and conversation about GF. KNOX has a chance to provide that - will you? This is your chance to step up to the plate...but how about focusing on community events and other positive topics and not culture war bs? Yeah I get it low hanging fruit makes the phones ring but you guys have a window to become the INFO-CENTER for what's going on in GF. Will you step up and do that? GF needs a reliable media source. This is your opportunity...

...cricket...cricket...anyone?

Will try that 2 meat platter at Chino next time G - thanks. Ever try the Korean BBQ aka Gochujang Chicken there? Also very tasty, not hot. Samosas there are good too. Pass on their Naan - it's pita bread. Oh well, no one is perfect. Picked up takeout from Punjab tonight. Wife had Paneer Karara extra spicy and they didn't spare the hot - she LOVED it! They were PACKED and lots of people waiting - good to see! On a down note: Noodles had their patio open for the first time (I've seen) in years so with El Gordito, Punjab and Noodles and the c*ck blocking new mini-strip mall they built their entrance, parking, and exit is really BAD so be warned. Then you can deal with the pothole-riddled parking lot of Columbia Hell. (apparently they had a sinkhole by McDonald Dental so the 28th Ave. S entrance is blocked right now:-( So it goes...

El Gordito is good! MexIcan and Salvadoran Food - takes a bit so be patient but it's worth the while. Glad they got out of the mall and into the real world. In that same strip mall there is awesome Indian food at House of Punjab. Don't know what to order? Try the Tikka Misala (chicken and rice in a spicy red sauce) with Garlic Naan Bread to dip into to start and go from there. The old Steers location on South Washington is another place to check out (Mt. Everest - weird name in flat ND but whatever) Indian/Himalayan food also very good. Chino Latino (the NEW location of Steers) next to McDonalds is also great for drive through with chinese, indian and latino fusion menu items - Elias Dean is a treasure for this town and we should support him! Try the Korean BBQ chicken and rice! It's amazing - Never had a bad meal there and they will treat you right. Some of the great places to eat in GF that offer something OTHER the just burgers and fries - hope we can get more! ON A SAD NOTE: Far East Buffet (the old pancake house on Gateway) has been demolished along with all the remnants of the old Westward Ho. Yes it turned into a meth factory for the last many years and needed to go but its sad to see those old GF landmarks gone forever.

Interesting comment... Hugo's bought out Paulubicki's (sp?) in Fosston. The big grocery store and a c-store. Heard the locals there like Hugo's better than the old owners and it's right on the way to the lake from GF so good buy for Hugos but I guess the GF southenders will have to wait a little longer for their new store. 32nd Ave is still the closest store for a city that's grown another 30 blocks south? As a former prez would say....SAD;-)

Be careful of what you buy at the DOLLAH stores...lots of expired items. Also killing the small towns local economy - when they don't make enough $$$ they close and move away but they already killed the local grocery/convenience store. Pick your poison

Roughly a third of it (old Macys wing) has been sold and will be turned into a Christian school. Part of it is also a Sanford Power facility and Artwise (aka NON retail) usage. Penny's is dying and will be dead soon so Scheels remains the only viable retail wing. All the remaining stores should gravitate toward them. The company that owns Columbia Mall is out of state and uses it as a tax write off and they couldn't give 2 sh*ts. The city should at least demand they maintain their mall roads and parking lots that are atrocious. The future of retail in GF is - apparently by the number being built - strip malls?? The trick seems to be filling them???? There are tons with few or no clients yet they keep building them. Wish them the best of luck...

that's it. Went to the mall for the first time in years (like everyone else apparently) and it was really depressing. It's like a galaxy collapsing on itself with all the stores shriveling toward the center until it eventually explodes in a supernova - except I suspect this will be more like a wet fart. No reward for driving through the parking lot direct from Syria with all the potholes. Grand Cities mall might have more actual stores - now THAT says something.

Bobcats totally dominated the zone in P3 while Minny tried NOT to lose....pathetic. You're the #1 TEAM IN THE COUNTRY! You're 22-0-2 leading after 2 periods....ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK -but no, the Goofs mangina was showing...and bleeding. QU came right out in the overtime and punched Goldy right in the mouth and knocked the rodent out. Good for the Bobcats. Rand is an uptight a-hole but even those people need a slap on the back sometimes. TOO BAD for goldy though...lol

when the thread devolves into crappy low humor memes it's time to shut it down....meh! ALSO I don't think an internet poster named SIOUXKID12 will have any credibility in deciding a UND coaching position until he updates his handle to one that doesn't make you think of Chris Hanson coming into a room with cookies and a transcript.

BLAKER NICE ONE! just 2 pts though...too little too late

The real KISS of death was the fact that UND had won 13 straight games against CC sigh...

This has been a sister-kissing season...

GREAT! You were FIRST announcing a death - super you have such GREAT CONNECTIONS so you could be FIRST to announce it because you have SO MANY great CONNECTIONS among supposedly "IMPORTANT" people that you would be the FIRST to annouce this on social media board - MOSTLY BECAUSE YOU HAVE GREAT CONNECTIONS! The truth is you act like you're SO IMPORTANT announcing NEWS you forget the importance OR IMPACT of the actual NEWS because it's SO IMPORTANT. You just want it to be all about yourself. !@#$ you and the GOBC or whatever you call it.. no one gives a !@#$ about your little dick club. THINK ABOUT THE FAMILY you're talking about and their feelings...not just WHO CAN POST IT FIRST!

NOPE he's on TV so has a job to do - you do what you do to an audience of no one so you stfu!

More like "NODIK" - back in the day Gino and Dean would run them up and down the bleachers or skate them until they puked at the old Ralph. Now you have to speak gently to correct them but not punish them so they won't feel too bad about themselves. Barry uses the "nice" approach but it's clearly a hell of a job nowadays. Not easy...I don't blame him - he's a great guy. BUT I wouldn't want his job. Would you? I don't advocate for abuse - either physical or psychological - but there is clearly something missing from these current teams. They have the greatest arena - the most modern and expensive training facilities - the best college experience any college hockey player could have...what's missing?? IDK

if you're going to call for a change at least know how the assistants spell their names. I have no tolerance for the torch and pitchfork crowd.

Nice try idiot! Karl is spelled with a K - NEXT!!!

and here's the result of a city official who applied for a grant that bought them a foodtruck that an immigrant took advantage of to start a business who would up buying that foodtruck and opening his own brick and mortar restaurant (TWICE) and hire his own employees and pay taxes while he's building his own American dream and who knows where it will go.... https://www.facebook.com/chinolatinogfk/ Great tasty food and a gem to the community! Give it a try and it will take the whiny bitching aftertaste of a supposed "city employee grift" out of your mouth...maybe. It all turned out just the way the original grant funders intended. Imagine that!

SUDDENLY you can type actual english sentences? ANOTHER Christmas miracle! Hallelujah! PS - Arch Simonson is the REAL crime boss in GF - just sayin'

dd It's all on his laptop that was left at Valley Tech Pros - seriously! Check it out!

also: PRETTY sure WOK and ROLL is a Chinese FU-FENG attempt to infiltrate the USA with WOKS and EGG ROLLS!!!! EGG ROLLS PEOPLE!! Call Jodi! HELLO!!!!!

Yeah those damn LIBERALS!!! ALWAYS making the entrepren-MANURES pay for UPGRADES!!! Give me a break! You trumpers are such a buzzkill - go away! FACT CHECK: Did you know the FOOD TRUCK the CITY bought for HAGA actually turned out to be an opportunity for a immigrant to work hard and turn his AMERICAN dream into reality. Elias Dean took the "liberal" opportunity with the food truck to open Steers Restaurant. Now he's taken over ownership of the food truck (which still travels all around) and has opened a new restaurant on Washington called Chino Latino. Look up his Facebook for an amazing stor
