johndahl Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 From October 1 for 30-60 days, as needed to get the opinions of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe. http://www.twincities.com/news/ci_13461775?source=rss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagies Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 That's a more generous extension than it sounded like it could be a couple weeks ago. Maybe the State Board isn't trying to slam the door too quickly after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxSioux Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Why is it that almost every time the Forum runs a story on the Sioux name it includes a picture of the student section "appearing" to be doing a tomahawk chop. To my knowledge the tomahawk chop has never been done en masse by UND, although it has been by the virtuous Florida State. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jerseys have an older logo....I am pretty sure there are countless newer pictures that they could use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong, but the sieve chant is not trying to immitate the Tomahawk chop. I think it is just a coincidence that they look similar.

I think it is just a coincidence that they look similar. People commenting on the Sioux nickname on the Fargo Forum are confused on the pic. They think its the tomahawk chop nice job Forum picking that kind of a pic but i am glad someone pointed out its a sieve chop that every school and team does.

I think it is just a coincidence that they look similar. Which is my point. If you don't know hockey, you may think that they are doing "the chop". As someone mentioned there has to be some more current photos they could use, but they choose not to. I don't call this coincidence. I call it deliberate. Obviously this is an older photo, looking at the logo on the jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone see that or know anything about it? http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/otl/index I caught the last 10 minutes of the show. Some dumbass was saying how Indian nicknames are wrong and the other guy he squared off against was a Seminole Indian and he said its nice how non-natives say whats best for natives. I applaud that guy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewey Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Frank Sage said he and fellow American Indian students at UND are being ignored by the board. "Why aren't they answering to the Native students and the incidents that are happening? The hate crimes? They are violating our civil rights," Sage said. "It's pretty upsetting to me." Where do they come up with this stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxman Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 That's a more generous extension than it sounded like it could be a couple weeks ago. Maybe the State Board isn't trying to slam the door too quickly after all. Actually, the new tribal council doesn't take office until about October 14, so it is still about a two week extension.

Obviously this is an older photo, looking at the logo on the jerseys. I agree with you on this one. It's done to incite those who are already being "victimized" by the "hostile and abusive" logo that you see on the jerseys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
