The Sicatoka Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 I think we should change the name to the NightHawks! A hawk with red eyes! The Northern League baseball franchise in Fargo-Moorhead is the R--H----. That's why that won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwing77 Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 The Northern League baseball franchise in Fargo-Moorhead is the R--H----. That's why that won't work. How about the StreetHawks? Our Logo can be: It could get interesting driving it out onto the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they couldn't even get that one Sioux motorcycle to start last year, or the year before, forget which. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxmama Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 But I've heard some people talking recently about adopting some "non-offensive" nickname that would coincide with the current logo; I can't imagine what that would be, nor what the NCAA would allow, but it is certainly worth exploring. How about we keep the logo and be the BRAVE. With that we already have the end of the anthem covered. Land of the free and home of the BRAVE. P.S. Is it the name AND logo we have to get rid of?

P.S. Is it the name AND logo we have to get rid of? Yes, both name and logo are on the list. Anything with Native American imagery or reference. There was one school that just had 1 or 2 feathers on their logo and they had to change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If just the symbols can be abusive, then Florida State should have to give up their name as well. All I ask for is a little consistency from the politically correct crowd.

Tribal support was always a bogus argument. The only consistency is that they are always right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxforce19 Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Poo. I was really liking my BRAVE idea. Oh yes, William and Mary, I remember now. 2 feathers. Who woulda thunk it. Your BRAVE idea reminds me of a time... In high school our mascot was the Mohawks and they made us change... so we became the Thunderhawks. There was a rival high school down the road who were called the Braves... and they made them change. And guess what they changed to? the BRAVE. It actually really pissed me off b/c i didn't consider that a change at all... i was young and in fact i didn't even notice the change for a few years after they apparently changed it. And now I'm just really bitter about my school having to change for the second time in my life. haha. oh well. I apologize for my little rant just now. Needed to get that off my chest.

You must hereby repent by giving away all your self-respect and your ability to be responsible for your own life. Henceforth you will resort to hiding behind outdated mantra with your head in the sand. What also would satisfy would be to march backwards until Charlemagne is once again on the throne.

Big A HG Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Some new info I heard....from a very reliable source. According to this person, it's rumored to be that UND will have RBK/CCM uni's for the upcoming year and not Gemini. The person made it seem like it was already a done deal, so don't shoot the messenger if it turns out to be false. Also, he said that they'd likely have the RBK Edge jerseys as well.

AZSIOUX Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 what is the difference between rbk/ccm and gemini in their look? nothing as each company can make any style but if they wear the rbk edge then those are the same as the nhl jerseys they introduced last season or whenever they did. im sure the actual style and designs will be up to hak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fee_0405 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 As far as if we actually had to put up with a new mascot. All animal names are completely bogus and would probably make me vomit. I think something very colloquial kind of like the Sooners or Hoosiers. I was thinking the Sodbusters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
