ericpnelson Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 If the nickname ends up being anything other than a NOUN, I will be mad. And if it's a WEATHER PHENOMENON, I will have hard time following the teams. And if it a WEATHER PHENOMENON first suggested by a prominent anti-Sioux activist, that will be the end for me. yeah I don't want any suggestion from an anti-nicknamer based on spite and principle alone Quote
The Sicatoka Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Dude, I'm sorry but put a little rouge on that horse, tight dress and hand it a microphone and you will hear the best Gloria Gaynor impression of your life. Pretty close .... Too bad her rally-cry might have to become ours: 1 Quote
Brainerd Sioux Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Alright the last attempt was proven to be poor! How about Green Machine 1 Quote
Brainerd Sioux Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Or just University of North Dakota Machine with a logo like the above Quote

UNDBIZ Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 I'd prefer not to have the letter "M" as the logo. Quote
GreenWing Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Reminds me of Mazzocco's quote during the final five "The precision machine strikes again!" That name is way too generic though. 1 Quote
UND1983 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Nice having Matt Bakke represent football. An aspiring politician who never played representing 100+ years of tradition. Couldn't find ANYBODY else in the GF area? Quote
Taz Boy Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Pretty close .... Ms Gaynor looks great! Quote

UND1983 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Apparently they tried as hard as they could to get a diverse cross-section. Would love to hear the stupid ass comments that come out of some of their mouths. Quote
Siouxphan27 Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Maybe the task force will come up with the name UND Task Forcers. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 One more on Sundogs: BRIDGES thought it would be cute because it's sUNDogs. If we want that ... scoUNDrels 1 Quote
mksioux Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 Apparently they tried as hard as they could to get a diverse cross-section. Would love to hear the stupid ass comments that come out of some of their mouths. I can't say I'm surprised. Committees created by politicians and educators only care how the committee looks, rather than what it might accomplish. This is just typical higher ed mush. 4 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 ... the group will participate in a facilitated process designed to map out ... Good Lord. What a bunch of mealy-mouthed new-speak. It's a committee to gather data and make a recommendation. Confucius where are you and your "rectification of names" when we need you? This essentially means for every action, there is a word that describes that action. The belief is that by following the Rectification of Names, one would be following the correct/right path. The rectification of names also calls for a standard language in which ancient rulers could impose laws that everyone could understand to avoid confusion. Without the rectification of names, different words would have different actions. A dog is a dog, it is not a four-legged canine companion with a variable level of insect infestation. Quote
