Gma loves hockey Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 I may be a little confused, but if there is a conspiracy issue, isn't the big pink elephant in the room the Standing Rock council? UND is getting blamed for not recognizing the agreement years ago with the elders, but isn't the council saying the elders did not know any better and it doesn't count? Quote

Fetch Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 You think maybe that's what the Mayans were predicting & Lord forgive me cause I just sinned ............(Had some Bison Crunch Ice Cream) Quote
jodcon Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 The Mayans, Nostradamus, and John Edwards collectively could not have predicted how this mess has played out. Quote

UNDColorado Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Why don't people get it. If we keep the Fighting Sioux we will: - get kicked out of the Big Sky as they will not see us a a sactioned school as a viable member - become an independent in all sports (except hockey) and face a scheduling nightmare - lose recruits because they don't want to play for a school that has sanctions on it and not in a conference - never play Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and an ever growing list of schools EVER in any sport NONE of THAT IS A FACT - & could be delt with if it happened You seem like you were the kid in school that had to go through each grade twice. God only knows why you are so dense! Quote

He reminds me of the Vince Vaughn character from the movie Swingers. "Gotta double down! Always double down! Gotta do it!" Me...I don't see the reason to gamble and possibly lose it all. It's stupid.

82SiouxGuy Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 it's easy to "gamble" on this issue when they (Carlson, Soderstrom, Hennen, Port, et al.) have no skin in the game. Or if they are playing a completely different game. Quote

I'd say more like the kid that saw others burn their hand on the burner but just had to smell their own flesh on it too. Quote

CAS4127 Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 C'mon Fetch, listen to what Hakstol said yesterday. He flat said, in this NCAA environment, keeping the name will slowly erode even the mens hockey program. Please, spend 15 minutes and listen to what Hakstol said. After reading several of "Fetch's" posts, I think you guys might be getting played here. Could be wrong, but, from and outsider looking in, that's how it appears to me. Quote

Fetch Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 Maybe folks have lost faith in the so called Hero's & Politicians & Leaders --- Sent us all to school to think for ourselves & now they want us to trust their superior knowledge It's worth Fighting for & to He11 with the potential consequences - they can be fixed (IF THEY HAPPEN) saving the name is now or never I wonder how many of the ones coming out will admidt they were wrong - (if the names is saved) & try to spin it like they had the best interest in the school & giving up seemed to be the best thing to do.

I want that day to happen. I'm not going to hide from anyone, especially you. I love the nickname, always have. I love it so much that I am willing to let it go to save the very thing, the more important thing, it represents. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 You're really, truly expecting Mark Emmert and his minions to change their position. That expectation makes buying the winning PowerBall ticket look like a sure thing. Quote
