Yes, I'm bigger than he is so I beat him up real bad.

Or so you thought....

[UND1981]

And much older than I am.  I am winner by knock out unless you are as big as Hulk Hogan.

Back to the subject.  I am very happy there is no new logo on the floor at the Betty, Alerus or Ralph.

I've said from the start that logo looks best small, like a shoulder patch or on a helmet, or like the FB teams' polos. 

And I don't mind Lexie Shaw's new blocker. The split logo on the pads? Meh. 

I like it . . . sorry, i know that's probably not the cool thing to say, but i think that's the best use of the logo i've seen so far.

I have a wife and daughters. No men in the home other than me. I have learned long ago never make a comment about women and their pads.

It probably wouldn't look too bad on a garbage truck.

I'm thinking it looks o.k.  Would probably look even better with a little smaller logo on the blocker, and one smaller one on each goalie pad.  

Wouldn't that be disrespectful with the puck hitting the logo??? Ha ha

So you're saying it's such a great logo that it would even make a garbage truck look good?  (Pretty sure you were trying to shoot it down...but it reads kinda the opposite)

Maybe those of us who had a lot invested in the Sioux name are a little biased in evaluating the new logo?

I think there's probably some truth to that.  It's hard for a lot of us to be objective about it.  I actually find myself hating it less every day.  Part of that is just that I decided it's not worth hemming and hawing and booing and crying about it.  We need to support the athletes and this is what they will be wearing.

I will always support the athletes and the teams...I just can't support that horrible name and logo.

Agreed completely with this post.

I'm past the point of complaining about it.

Will I still sport my awesome Fighting Sioux gear? Hell yeah

Will I still support my UND sports teams? Absolutely

My wife will give it to all our grandkids & any other Family that wants it 

I will have to see what is available ....maybe a hat ????

Still wish they would get some with the D fixed

 

[The Sicatoka]

Given the non-sense (trespassing, defacing) going on with the SRST right now in Morton County, I'm more than glad UND no longer has any reason to be beholden to that organization.

So I guess I'm more and more accepting of the new name and logo every day. 

 

DISCLAIMER 1: My comments are based on what the SRST is allowing to happen in their name. 
DISCLAIMER 2: This is not about pipelines or environment. This is not political.
DISCLAIMER 3: You always have the right to protest ... peacefully, lawfully.

Fetch, I'm gonna agree with you on that - this small fix-it makes the logo more visible, it certainly becomes obvious that it's an N and a D.

I find it funny that people have to explicitly repeat this fact over and over and over again as if it will somehow make a difference

As I was typing this I was thinking 'Someone is going to follow this up and say Do I still hate the new logo? yes'

Here you go.  Do I still hate the new logo?  Yes

It's an obvious improvement, yet I don't think they would ever entertain the thought of making the change.

The N and the D are formed as a result of the hawk in front of it.  Sure they could have done block lettering with a hawk head in front of it, but SME made a logo where the hawk actually forms the letters N and D.  That is what makes this logo unique from the other bird logos out there (or any other for that matter).
