Goon Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I have to admit that if Nodaks ends up winning, I can almost guarantee I will laugh every single time the public address announcer at the REA yells "Here comes your University of North Dakota Nodaks!!" because of how bad it sounds.You could simply just say, here's your Nodaks scoring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegas_Sioux Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 You could simply just say, here's your Nodaks scoring. think of the sponsorship, here's your Nodaks Mutual Scoring. Every time a goal is announced nodak mutual donates x amount of dollars to the scores for scholarship program. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmksioux Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 (edited) .This quote feature needs some work...Was trying to quote Goon on his "NoDaks scoring" post.Anyway, how about at the beginning of games when the announcer says, "Here comes your University of North Dakota...NoDaks?!? Or, "Here comes your University of North Dakota Roughriders!" Rolls off the tongue much better and just "fits" imo.

But then was struck by the realization that with the abundance of companies using "Nodak" in their name, every announcement WOULD sound like a commercial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmksioux Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Here's your UND Fighting Hawks Scoring... Better than NoDaks, not as good as Roughriders. Fighting Hawks is a distant second in my order of preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 That sounds equally as terrible.None of them sound as good as here's your Fighting Sioux Scoring. It also took awhile for Here your UND Scoring. I will have to admit, I am not a fan of change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Time Hockey Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 This is a lot like having to go pick out bathroom tile and you only have 5 really lame options. The problem is you have to pick one and will have to live with it for a very long time. This really sucks! The only good news for me is that I won't be disappointed that one particular name doesn't make it. I might just draw one name out of a hat for voting purposes.

obborg Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 i like the history angle with Nodaks but ND is the roughrider state and UND is the state's flagship university so it makes sense to me to be the roughridersYeah, ND is the roughrider state in exactly the same way Coke is the Real Thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really missed on this one. Why was an option not the University of North Dakota Creatures. We have a built-in mascot!
