Hayduke Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Okay.....Sodbusters Sold! Someone alert President Kelley. Perhaps a large banner in his driveway would be the best way of informing him. Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 How bout fairy unicorns? Fairies are people, not mascots! 1 Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 BUZZ! Can't say fairy. Got me! Honest oversite on my end. How bout Rainbow Warriors? Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 U of Hawaii really are the Rainbow Warriors. Not kidding. Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 BUZZ! Can't say fairy. By the way, I almost pee'd myself with laughter with your reply! My favorite post of the day, thanks! Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 U of Hawaii really are the Rainbow Warriors. Not kidding. I know, but it is so good and being that we are so far away...... I am sure there has to be some demographic out there that is remotely offended. Just can't put my finger on it? Quote
runaroundsioux Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 BUZZ! again. Warriors has a NA connotation. Rainbow Unicorns would be much more PC. Would have to get approval from at least two herds of Unicorns though. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Mmmmm ... unicorn is delicious ... Nutritional information: http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/e5a7/ Quote
darell1976 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 For the love of all things holy, please just pick a nickname. Let's move on... ^^^^^^^THIS!!! Quote
rhenry8439 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 I think the only nickname the university (robert kelley) is going to allow is the University Of North Dakota Fighting Kellys. as to honor our Good Ol president Robert Kelley. Quote
rhenry8439 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Another nickname to consider is The University Of North Dakota Saviors??? Quote
CMSioux Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 BUZZ! again. Warriors has a NA connotation. Rainbow Unicorns would be much more PC. Would have to get approval from at least two herds of Unicorns though. They will never pick this but you could easily go with "Warrior" and use a Viking Warrior icon. But it won't happen because someone in the room will scream NA. And if it's okay to use a leprican because it is ficticious it should be okay to use a icon similar to "Thor" the Norwegian god of Thunder, ie: Warrior.. Quote
TBR Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 ConUNDrum....encapsulates the entire process. Our main cheer is a whispered "WTF" as we scratch our heads. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 BUZZ! again. Warriors has a NA connotation. Rainbow Unicorns would be much more PC. Would have to get approval from at least two herds of Unicorns though. 2 facts...rainbows have an underlying gay attachment to them in many circles and a long stiff "horn" isn't widely accepted by some in those groups. Wouldn't fly.............. Quote

Actually the Kelly's could have been an interesting idea, named after Kelly green. But even indirectly our current president screwed that up. Seems like he can't get out of the way of his own shadow!

90siouxfan Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Would Leigh Jeanotte protest if they choose Chippeweas? Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Would Leigh Jeanotte protest if they choose Chippeweas? I think he is contemplating his next protest.....changing North Dakota so Chippewa is definitely out of the question! Quote

Wouldn't fly.............. So to honor the first European settlers in this area with the nickname Fur Traders wouldn't fly either? I give up, let's go without a nickname. :-) 1 Quote

MafiaMan Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 One more time just so we're clear on what might be construed as being in bad taste vs being OK... Feathers: Clearly offensive, racist, and oppressive A pale Elvis Presley with war-paint: A-OK. Quote
