I'll help you out: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/fact?s=t I'm flattered that you actually went back and checked moon schedules. I can picture you typing furiously at your computer muttering to yourself: "2016, 2000, 1997, 1987...sonofabitch.... AHA!! Although everything else checked out, 1963 trips your argument up.

Wax has 3 letters > Tucker Poolman is #3 > Poolman can be translated roughly to Pool Man in Norwegian > Norwegian has 9 letters > We are trying to capture our 9th championship. I'd also add and believe that this plays a part in this somehow, that Ludvig Hoff is Norwegian and he's number 27....2 + 7 = ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Siouxphan27 Posted March 23, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2017 So if I'm reading the pattern and timeline events here correctly, if UND doesn't win the hockey title again this year, it's clearly time for another name change. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWSiouxMN Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 The more I reflect back on this entire name transition issue, the more I realize how many chances UND had to stop the bleeding and whiffed. It didn't have to be this painful and long. People rip Schafer for not having a vote on the logo but ask yourself, after how the vote was handled on the name could you really do it again? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They tried to appease too many people instead of just ripping the Band-Aid off, which just allowed the issues to linger. It appears they have finally figured out that strategy wasn't working.

ArchyAlum11 Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I guess maybe the fact the people are just complaining about the logo now and not about bringing back the Fighting Sioux name is the progress of a kind. I am well aware there are still some who are dead set on bringing back the Fighting Sioux nickname, but the is almost certainly never going to happen. Everyone is making a big deal about how football and basketball have embraced the new logo, and while that sounds great to the outsiders who don't understand UND any UND alumni should Know that hockey is the Heartbeat of UND athletics. Unless hockey fans embrace logo we will always be divided on the nickname issue, and that is s where the University needs to move slowly, the worst thing they could do is to stick a Big Hawk logo on center ice or in the center of the jerseys next year. I think the most Hockey fans will tolerate the logo as a shoulder patch. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the hockey-only fans used to seeing it. Get the hockey team to stop avoiding it. 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, you do that, and the hockey fans will only retrench, though to be honest I don't think that UND gets to make the call on what is printed at Center Ice, the Ralph gets to make that call. However UND could stick that big Hawk Office logo on the jersey, but I doubt they will fly off the shelves. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
