They changed their nickname 15 years ago, Fighting Hawks is not even a year old! Everyone always says that it takes time for wounds to heal and for most alumni/fans, it will take a long time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxforcefans Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 You expected anything else? I could write a diatribe about the insufferable NDSU fans at the drop of a hat. I won't, as I have better things to do, and don't need to try to get people to read papers, nor promote an agenda. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMSioux Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Never argue with a person who buys ink by the barrel. It was low-hanging fruit as far as a topic and and bashing the Flagship University is a popular pastime down there no matter what else is going on. By the way did I miss the article/tweet that shared what Carson had for breakfast? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxbow6 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 So this Jon Lipp guy felt the need to opine as a "big brother" to UND to give his concerns with those who still use the term "Fighting Sioux"............one would think he would be more concerned about whether he should apply as an assistant manager at Burger Time or Burger King when he finishes his Business Administration degree at SU. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herd Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 I don't agree with this guy. Und athletic behavior (good or bad) does not reflect on the state, it just reflects on Und. With regard to your nickname, you have a well earned reputation as the rogue university. I wouldn't expect that to change, you'll be chanting Fighting Sioux for the next 100 years, just because you can and you said you would. This guys doesn't need to be worried about Und, it's not his concern. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go away, this isn't the battle. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They told us not to major in Business Administration when I was there unless you were going to be taking over a family business or farm. Wonder if that is his situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TrueSioux2000 Posted April 15, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 15, 2016 UND has this guy so far in our back pocket its crazy. Dudes brain is in a mental pretzel because we won a championship and he can't get us off his mind Guy is absolutely RATTLED, and it's hilarious. "The Bison have won five consecutive national championships and have never caused destruction on this scale." - He's right. Oh the devastation!! Grand Forks is utterly decimated. It's like a scene from Mad Max out here. "The Quinnipiac Bobcats used to be the Quinnipiac Braves, but you didn’t hear their fans screaming that name throughout the championship. In fact, I’d be willing to bet that you didn’t even know that. Why? Because they understand the importance of their change in mascot, and don’t go out of their way to bring it up." - Ok, I lived 5 minutes from the QU campus for 18 years of my life. You wanna know why no one talked about the Braves nickname? (Or the Bobcat nickname, for that matter) Because QU was totally and completely IRRELEVANT in the state until 2012. Take a seat behind UConn and Yale, BobKitties. Comparing the support for the Braves name and the Fighting Sioux name, to me, is totally apples and oranges. Fighting Sioux goes waaaaaaaay back and has a championship history to back it up. Braves didn't. End of discussion, Jon. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Haha, that whole article just reads like sour grapes. How long ago was QU the Braves? I knew that was their former nickname (so the author lost the bet there!), but I am not sure how long since they switched to the Bobcats. But I can guarantee you that it wasn't just within the last two years like the Sioux to Hawks transition. These things take time, especially for a school with such a large tradition built behind that nickname. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you didn't hear the Quinnipiac fans yelling anything because they were drowned out by all the UND Fans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
