Goon Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Why doesn't UND's single digit winning Softball team play NDSU's perennial 35-40 win team in the regular season? NDSU's VB and WBB teams are down from where they have been traditionally, yet we play UND. Who is afraid to lose a game? Is UND unwilling to play unless it is favorable for them? So it seems. But UND played NDSU in other sports and traveled back and forth. Why should NDSU get all of the home games in the football games? No-offense, but UND is still more known because of hockey then Moo-U is in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goon Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 This thread still alive? I thought it was crystal clear long ago, to anyone with a modicum of intelligence and objectivity, that Taylor won't agree to a resumption of this series in any fashion because his feelings were hurt a decade ago. He's just not man enough to say it publicly. He needs to get over it. Roger Thomas is long gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-offense, but UND is still more known because of hockey then Moo-U is in football. The real situation is that if you step out of the relatively small world of UND and NDSU athletics, many people can't tell the difference or even care for that matter. The confusion even in today's world is a fact of life. It's maybe a little more clear, but not much. They couldn't even get the scoreboard right in the beginning of the baseball game last night.

Bulk Truck Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 He needs to get over it. Roger Thomas is long gone. Ironically Roger is coming back to be inducted into the UND Athletics Hall of Fame this fall. Well deserved honor! I didn't agree with his philosophy in regards to D-1 but a good coach and good man nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then its time for you to move on. Then come out and say it and quit pretending there is some sort of negotiating going on. The only guarantee games Faison has ever agreed to have payouts that exceed what GT and FU can afford. And speaking of moving on, if what you said is true, there is no need for the FU trolls to continue posting on the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 UND is NDSU's #1 rival and NDSU is UND's #1 rival. That's the way it is. If anyone tries to say that NDSU has "moved on", well then, they just need to pay attention to this forum and all the NDSU people on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulk Truck Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 My personal feeling is that bison73 has no actual idea what Gene Taylor said, but jdub27 probably doesn't really know what Brian Faison said either. I know them both and I really couldn't tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point unless you have RT and Kuppy themselves give you an apology, as far as I'm concerned Kelley and BF don't owe NDSU squat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If thats the case why have you been squaking about not being on NDSUs schedule? As far as an apology I would never expect that to happen. But UND as an institution knows they screwed up. But will never admit it. Makes no difference to me. But if you really want the game it will have to be played in Fargo. Thats just the way it is at this juncture.

I cared up until GT started changing the terms in the emails that was revealed as of late, so now it's obvious he doesn't want the game to ever return to Grand Forks so screw it.

As far as describing posters on this site or bisonville, a more accurate term would be "fans" derived from "fanatic." If you don't like what fans (or as you call them, lunatic fringe) have to say, then why visit either "fan" site? What's your endgame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nd1sufan Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Why would NDSU go to Grand Forks to play a football game? Every game is on TV, every home game is sold out the day they go on sale (within an hour or two), and National sports networks want their games on TV. FS1 is televising the Iowa State game and ESPN wanted to televise a game at the Dome in August. Life is good at NDSU's football offices. Why spread that wealth and attention to your "biggest rival" when you don't have to? By the way, UNI is NDSU's biggest rival in football, and I don't see that changing with or without the UND game.
