darell1976 Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 So using that same logic, NDSU should be incredibly ashamed for all the Sioux jeers and taunts? Good thing they quit doing it when UND dropped the nickname...oh wait. You mean good thing they dropped that when we aren't on the field....oh wait. Quote

siouxforcefans Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 You mean good thing they dropped that when we aren't on the field....oh wait. I still count a recent post championship (1a) press conference as one of my favorite moments - even then, even in victory, the SU player threw out a "Sioux Suck" to really get the crowd excited. That was all I needed to know about that player/team/fan base. Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 Somewhere lost in the hoopla of the days news.... Tonight the committee will go through the rest of the names Quote

dagies Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I really like Prairie Hawks I'd rather have Night Hawks but I really prefer they find something better than either of them Quote

fightingsioux4life Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Sadly sundog and sundogs made it through Quote
Old Time Hockey Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Sadly sundog and sundogs made it through Here we go! Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 26 names altogether were moved forward tonight. No clue if they got through them all. Adding the first half group, Roughly 60 names so far that made the cut. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Not a bad name. Agree........when you put side by side with "Chicken Nuggets" as potential nicknames. Quote
choyt3 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Pride? Spirit? And then God forbid they look into any name that is possibly spelled similarly to a "Native American" word. Not the same word... just spelled "close" to the same. WTF Quote
jdub27 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Pride? Spirit? And then God forbid they look into any name that is possibly spelled similarly to a "Native American" word. Not the same word... just spelled "close" to the same. WTF That was a fairly confusing couple of paragraphs by the GF Herald. My deciphering of it leads me to believe they are going to look at the reasoning for why it was excluded from the vote and it may have a chance to move on. My guess is that McDonald was clarifying the difference and Evans was confirming that someone was clueless on it. Also not that it matters at this point, but interesting to see that "North Dakota" only received two supporting votes. Quote
George M. Bluth Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 It's making me nervous how many terriblue options are still being considered, and many getting a high number of votes. http://www.grandforksherald.com/sites/default/files/Nicknames-full%20list.pdf Quote
Hambone Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I'm curious how some of those made it through but others like Norse and Roughnecks didn't. I'm in the same boat as George - getting pretty nervous about what's still out there. Quote
darell1976 Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 Agree........when you put side by side with "Chicken Nuggets" as potential nicknames. MMM chicken nuggets. Quote
dagies Posted May 19, 2015 Posted May 19, 2015 I see Bombers is on the list, and frankly, I could really dig that one. Quote
