ericpnelson Posted November 22, 2015 Posted November 22, 2015 Maybe they should change their name, so husky women can't be marginalized. People, not logos. 3 Quote
bigskyvikes Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 You people are not in high school anymore. And take a good look at UND fandom, cuz it ain't pretty!Haha, nice first post, you'll be banned soon. I bet the team you cheer for all the fans are very respectful? Not highschool, but one year later.... Quote

dakotadan Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 I'm not saying, "be nice to them." Treating (or insulting) women based on performance/merit rather than looks starts only when men stand up for it. If she is husky isn't that a reflection of her performance/merit at the fitness center?!? 1 Quote

dakotadan Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 I guess for me when I am chanting "Husky Women" I am doing it in support of all ladies who have triumphantly defeated anorexia! Quote
siouxforce19 Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) I guess for me when I am chanting "Husky Women" I am doing it in support of all ladies who have triumphantly defeated anorexia! I always took the "Husky Women" chant in a different way in college, I just thought it was referring to SCSU being wimpy. Edited November 23, 2015 by siouxforce19 Quote

Frozen4sioux Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Maybe they should change their name, so husky women can't be marginalized. People, not logos.The Husky "nickname" is obviously Hostile and abusive due to how other teams pervert the use of it. Sanctions should be coming down this week.Sound familiar Jan Brady? start budgeting for legal fees, consultants and the removal from campus of all logos and use. 1 Quote

UND has more fans than most hockey programs, so there are more idiots ... Quote

stoneySIOUX Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 As a female, I think this conversation is dumb. Get a thicker skin if a hockey chant offends you.Wouldn't thicker skin only extrapolate the original problem? 3 Quote

johndahl Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 A little background to this:15 or 20 years ago, the announcers used to say "Please welcome your Husky Hockey Cheerleaders" and other such things, which set up an obvious play on words with its double meaning. I remember UND crowds back then chanting "she's not that fat" in response, which I think was at least fairly clever. Most of the chants from this weekend, on the other hand, seemed no more clever than the guy who tried to scream over the performer while singing the national anthem. I'm not saying that people don't have a right to chant them, just that some of the chants don't represent the fan base as well as they could if they put a little more thought into it. 1 1 Quote
Tbone Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 I don't like the cheer. Wouldn't do it in front of my girls, my sister, my mother, my grandmother, or any of yours. More so, I feel it is more a reflection of the the hurler of the cheer and not the intended target. I can't recover the stone after I throw it. Not perfect here, been there done that, just trying to move onward and upward. Some bumps in the road of my life have led to more careful introspection. But, we remain a free people. 1 1 Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 Just to be clear, is it still ok if I chant "JUS-TIN-BIE-BER!" in unison with the "LET'S GO BEA-VERS!" chant? Because I don't think I want to live in a world where that's not acceptable. Quote
siouxforcefans Posted November 23, 2015 Posted November 23, 2015 The husky women chant is stupid - I much prefer Gopher Rejects - but do you really expect to accomplish anything with this thread? 2 Quote

Think about the talent playing for SCSU right now. Minny would be begging for those boys, at this point. 3 Quote
