runaroundsioux Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Its a hawk. The black part is the beak. Concentrate. Quote
Siouxphan27 Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Its a hawk. The black part is the beak. Concentrate.so is the small black dot the eye? if so, is the black part to the left of the eye the beak, and the black part to the right of the eye is?? did Picasso draw this? Quote
runaroundsioux Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 The small black dot is the tongue. (or a birdseed). The big black part is the top of the beak. Small black is the bottom. Serrated part upper right of circle is wing. I know you're having me on, but never know, you may be cross eyed. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 I thought only great horned owls regurgitated what they've eaten. Hawk regurgitation? Quote
bigskyvikes Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 (edited) Its a hawk. The black part is the beak. Concentrate.If that's a hawk, thats the dumbest Iogo ever! Someone needs to "concentrate". I just watched John Wick, look the f#*k out! Edited November 28, 2015 by bigskyvikes Quote

I don't know how you figured that out. you're either onto something or you're on something. I would mention I don't think hawks have bottom beaks that protrude like that.... but being the whole thing is so abstract i'll assume that's just the mushrooms talking. Quote
CMSioux Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Never happen! Can't believe anyone believes this can happen...dumb.I was being facetious. Lighten up. However it was one of the "demands" given the day of the "walk for tolerance" or whatever it was called. Something like "removal of all Fighting Sioux icons from campus and a ban on Fighting Sioux clothing on campus". I don't buy it, I don't believe it could happen but it was demanded with the repercussions being they would create a nation-wide campaign to discourage Native Americans from attending UND. It's been more than six months since the Walk so I'm guessing they must be hunkered down in the Native American Cultural Center planning on how they are going to pull this off. Quote

I wasnt attacking you sorry if it seemed that way. I meant it to the people that would try to do this, or even want this to happen, not the people that have fear of it happening. 1 Quote
bang Posted November 28, 2015 Posted November 28, 2015 Last night a buddy of mine who played golf for the gophers and his brother who played hockey for the gophers told me "UND went from the best name and mascot in maybe all of college sports to the worst". I don't know if I was proud that they admitted that Sioux was the best nickname or I was pissed that we're no longer the Sioux. The only thing I know is that I don't have enough pride in the Hawks name yet to defend it. I want to move on but my heart isn't in it yet. Quote

They are certainly entitled to their opinions about the name, but what really impresses me is that the U of M has incorporated prescience into its student-athlete mentoring programs. Quote

Yah and I bet before this they've never said a bad thing about UND ever. Did you ask them what name they would have thought could have replaced Fighting Sioux? Quote

Did you ask them what name they would have thought could have replaced Fighting Sioux?I didn't ask them and I didn't disagree with them either. I told them I'm pretty sure our President is a U of M graduate. Quote

Siouxphan27 Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 It looks like i'm standing directly over a can of green paint, and I just poured a little white in there and made one swish with the paint stick. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I think someone watched too much Thundercats as a kid and it warped them when it comes to logos.https://www.google.com/search?q=thundercat+logo&prmd=isvn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwigm9rp-rTJAhWIOiYKHUkbAtwQ_AUIBygB Quote
SWSiouxMN Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Got a lot of grief from my classmates at home over the nickname. Just shook my head, drank my beer, told a few jokes and all was forgiven Quote
Siouxphan27 Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 OK, ... now explain the black.Paint stick was dirty. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 That almost makes sense. And here i thought it was the flush swirl after a bad St. Pat's night of corned beef and green beer. Quote
MafiaMan Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Looks an awful lot like the Iowa Hawkeye...and they WILL object, much like they did when Southern Miss introduced a new logo a few years ago. Quote
