Hawks gear is only gaining ground because there is nothing else available to buy. Start selling the ND logo and that will outsell them hawks gear! For sure!!! Quote

I was just stating what MY observation was versus one someone else made. Sorry that upsets you I guess lmao. FIGHTINGSIOUX was taken. You must be new to the internet. sometimes, when the username you want is taken, you modify it a bit to still sound phonetically correct with a different spelling. If you need some help understanding that, you could use internet explorer, or bing to search how to use the internet. . By the way, did you notice the name of the website you claim to dislike so much that you infrequently visit. 1 Quote

I think the fact that we all as fans argue about this so much, really just shows and means that we ALL have a lot of pride for our teams. And that's a good thing. We are a small, but die hard fan base and that's awesome. Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 I kept my Sioux gear but just won’t buy any new Sioux gear not a big fan of fighting hawks but that is us - certainly won’t be trying to change it nor go back to Sioux maybe too tired to fight but also just accepting - I don’t think it is in UND’s best interest to keep fighting 1 Quote

I consider myself a Fighting Hawks fan but have absolutely no problem with anybody who chooses to wear Fighting Sioux stuff, as do many other people in this thread. The only problem I see if the "Sioux Forever" crowd who openly oppose the Hawks name. You'll find that Bison and Gopher fans feel the same way about the Hawks name as the "Sioux Forever" crowd. I'd argue one of these two groups does a whole hell of a lot more damage than the other. Quote

You're screaming into the wind. NO ONE disagrees with this. This is part of what is causing the divisiveness. Some people think the ones that don't like the name are all clumped into this group that have the fantasy that the Sioux name is coming back. This is NOT the case. The largest part of this crowd consists of people who just don't like the name/love Sioux too much to let it go and choose to avoid buying Hawks gear. The group of "it's the reality, get over it" constantly barrages the "Sioux Forever" crowd. Remember ... the middle is where most lie. I was here back then, too. It's basically the same LOL. 1 Quote

I'd argue one of these two groups does a whole hell of a lot more damage than the other. Fair enough. I clarified in my post just before this... it's not the "Hawks Only" group.... it's an anti-Sioux forever group. Basically a group of people who rip on Sioux Forever people and call them dumb/idiots/etc. I've never seen what damage the "Sioux Forever" crowd does or ever has done. I've heard all the logic of why this group thinks the "Sioux Forever" crowd is hurting UND, but can never get anyone to show me a lick of proof about it. In the end, I think long term it'll just fade away and people will just let FH be the name and embrace it. The crowd that shouts at the "Sioux Forever" crowd for being idiots only causes those idiots to dig in deeper. 1 Quote

Classics, knock offs, 2010 style etc. I barely see any Hawks gear - except from some newbies to the scene maybe. I am not calling you a liar, but last time I was there - just last season, I noticed the exact opposite of your observation... who knows. Boo fighting HAwks BOO. I guess I was at the Ralph, no idea about the alerus. You are probably correct about the Alerus. I think once of the issues here also, is just that hockey as a sport and the fans are just more into traditions and things like that vs a lot of other sports. @stoneySIOUX The only point I'm making is that between the "Sioux Forever" crowd and the "Hawks Only" crowd, one group does way more damage to the University than the other. I'll ask one last question and then I'll leave this stupid, dead horse beating thread. Do you think there is a better chance of somebody getting booed wearing a Hawks logo at the Ralph or wearing a Sioux head at the Alerus? I have been on the receiving end of one of these scenarios, but not the other. Also, @stoneySIOUX I don't have a problem with you at all. My problem more so lies with the poster I quoted here. 1 Quote

I was more talking about the part where anybody wearing Hawks gear must be a new fan. It goes together with the idea that anybody who has been able to embrace the Hawks name, just isn't as passionate as the Sioux Forever crowd. Quote
