I caught some of the UND game vs Western Michigan the other day.  It was the first time I had heard the Fighting Hawks used by broadcasters.  I threw up in my mouth a little bit.  

Is it too soon to be annoyed by comments like this?

You must not watch or listen to UND games very often.

I have not lived in North Dakota for 20 years.  The team formerly known as the Sioux don't get much air time where I live now.

I have the same access to the games as you.

I use "Big Sky TV" for Basketball games and NCHC.tv for hockey games.

And Iheartradio if I feel like listening to the games instead.

That was evident when you hadn't heard "Fighting Hawks" by a broadcaster til last weekend. :p

While I played basketball for the Sioux in the early 1980s, and graduated from UND, I must admit I don't spend much time following the current UND sports teams.  That does not change the fact that I think changing the team name sucks, both in the concept and the execution.

Image rotation. ;)

I like how you integrated the UND flame logo into it. 

Sometimes this site will rotate an image that is upright. I couldn't figure it out myself.

Maybe it's because I am hunter, but that almost looks like a Pheasant. It's a nice picture, too.

I like including the flame in the logo and the eye (one of the most important parts, IMO) looks pretty good too.  Something about the beak and the flare off the back of the head is throwing me though.

A hawk doesn't have a tuft on the back of its head.

To the "looks like a pheasant" comment: Agree.

Yes, I like it!   I suppose all the PCers will say it is too much associated with NA people. 

Don't use feathers with it. ;)
