firewall Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Jim Shaw of Fox News in Fargo was guest hosting on KFGO this morning. He read a letter, allegedly, from Charles Murphy regarding the Sioux logo and nickname that he supposedly wrote in the late 90's disapproving of the Logo and nickname. Does anyone know if that letter is for real or a hoax? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82SiouxGuy Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Jim Shaw of Fox News in Fargo was guest hosting on KFGO this morning. He read a letter, allegedly, from Charles Murphy regarding the Sioux logo and nickname that he supposedly wrote in the late 90's disapproving of the Logo and nickname. Does anyone know if that letter is for real or a hoax? It is probably real. Murphy did not approve of the name or logo at that time and I have heard about the letter before. I don't think I have ever read the letter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmksioux Posted November 19, 2009 Share Posted November 19, 2009 It is probably real. Murphy did not approve of the name or logo at that time and I have heard about the letter before. I don't think I have ever read the letter. It is real...wish I had a different link than this one, but the letter is posted here: http://www.bisonville.com/forum/showpost.p...amp;postcount=5 Charles Murphy later, also said he would be in support of the name under certain circumstances. I do not have a link to that quote or story...perhaps someone else can help out here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
