  1. Not all pipelines leak and if the proper maintenance is conducted then you will see no issues. Most of the significant leaks were from poorly maintained lines from when there were no regulations that upheld the integrity of the pipelines. Most of the pipeline leaks are caused by third party damage. This is why one calls should alway be submitted. By placing a pipeline above ground you are creating a higher risk environment and the pipeline is more susceptible to damage. Placing a pipeline above a river is a risky deal. It is susceptible to more damage than it would be if buried 90 feet deep. Would you want to put a steel pipeline near bridges that are salted or in the path of a flooding river? The risks below ground are so much less.
  2. You need to slow your roll some. UND has now finally found success again so it will take some time to get the fans back on board. We are not going to see a change overnight.
  3. There was a ton of Sioux fans in Duluth this weekend for the hockey games, but many of them live there or in the cities so I don't think that affected attendence too much at the football game. I believe hockey games bring people to the football games so people can make it an all UND weekend. i did have to shake my head this weekend when I heard some Sioux fans talking about the Bison and if they won. Really?!?! We finally have a successful football team and their worried about the Bison score at a UND hockey game? I guess there wasn't much to watch after that performance.
  4. This team may be young and not very deep , but they find a way to win like a bunch of veterans. Great performance today from the best D in the FCS. I can't wait to watch this team in the years to come!
  5. Many of those releases were very small and we're contained in the facility. the one in SD was unfortunate because that defective weld should have been caught by the inspection. Sunoco owns just a part of DAPL. It is being built with the best workers money can buy. This is why public service commissions need to ensure that companies use the best worker before approving the pipeline.
  6. Non union non qualified welders. What do you expect when you don't follow the law? DAPL is hiring the best people in the Industry. You get what you pay for. The regulations are there for a reason. If followed there will be no deficiencies.
  7. Which ones? I'm sure it's only been one or two over the last 20 years on newer pipelines. These exceptions should not represent all pipelines.
  8. You are completely right about past failures. The technology back in the day is no where near where today's is. This is why you are seeing so many new pipelines being installed so that companies don't have to deal with all the issues on the old ones. this pipeline will have everything it needs to last 200 years with no issues
  9. Where is the pregame post game UND parties after the game if any?
  10. How am I wrong then? Don't say I'm wrong without telling me why. I would like to debate the facts if possible....
  11. The pipeline will not leak so this conversation is a non issue. The pipe, welds, coating are all inspected before installing it. Cathodic protection will protect the pipe from corroding. Inline inspections will catch any issue before it leaks.
  12. You realize they already installed the same pipeline across the Missouri near Williston. There is no harm in installing this pipeline. Do you know how many pipelines are installed across rivers in the US? Thousands
  13. The state must protect the legal right to construct the pipeline. These people are breaking the law to try to stop this pipeline. The pipeline has been legally approved and upheld in he courts. These people are not protesters, they are riotors. Their classification changed when they started to break the law. the state of North Dakota needs this pipeline so that our oil can be shipped cheaper and be more competitive on the world market. We need this for our economy and the people who work in the Industry. When it is started up the rail oil volumes will crash to close to nothing. Now you know why Obama and Hillary are trying to block it so they can protect thier big donor Buffet. I'm done with this corruption so I'm voting for TRUMP
  14. I don't see how our schedule is considered weak. The last 3 weeks will be a battle. Northern Arizona was considered a cupcake until they dominated Montana.....
  15. I like prospects that are excited to have an opportunity to become part of the UND community! Whether he gets an offer, PWO, or tries to walk on, UND is a great place to get a degree and excel in life. Players with dedication are the kinds of men he wants in his football family.
  16. The penalty shot looked weak on slow motion replay but in real speed it looked like the slash may have caused his shot to go off course. Either way the refs would be criticized. The player should not have slashed him and then there would be no call. maybe fitz was still a little loopy after the big hit

    2016 Season

    That shows the value in having our games broadcasted by a quality outlet. It's good to see people are paying attention! Now if only all road games could be on midco HD!
  19. Why keep any of the sports on the chopping block? No one comes to UND because of any of those sports other than the athletes themselves. Yeah these decisions are tough and can affect some student athletes but they need to be made to keep the financial health of the athletic department. We should not be keeping these sports by raising prices of other team tickets or by asking for more state funding. these sports are a waste of money and we need to cut the fat! There is no return on investment.
  20. Hoping this is the point where it clicks in kennedys head......cut women's hockey!!!!
  21. http://www.inforum.com/news/4138706-bresciani-calls-end-hateful-sioux-chant-bison-football-games no way the bison student would ever chant this. They are above UND, no one cares about the rivalry anymore....
  22. Stony Brook is now ranked in the STATS poll = quality loss !
  23. None of the remaining games will be easy wins. Our schedule may be easier with out UM or Eastern Washington but that doesn't mean the rest of the big sky are cupcake opponents. Has anyone seen the schedules for some teams out east? If we are the fourth ranked big sky team at 7-4 at the end of the season I think we would still get in.
  24. Defense kept us consistent last year and in my opinion gave the offense he opportunity to win us the important games. A great defense can make sub or goaltending look great. Good thing we have cam in net.
  25. If Santiago is unstoppable then yes run him as much as possible but if can't get it going consistently then we need to rotate the backs and keep them fresh. we have so much talent in the backfield we need to put each of them in position to make defenses pay. also how do we know Conner is ok after that hit to the head? Any confirmation that he is ok?
