Is there anybody on here that is good at photoshopping pictures? I want one made where the Lamoureux twins are walking on water. It seems fitting for all the people who believe everything they say. Lol. 

Give me a couple good pictures of them to work with and we will see

Men are covered under Title IX, as well. After the baseball team was cut UND was ripe for a lawsuit....from the Men. https://twitter.com/JocelyneUSA17/status/852661187116490752 …

She deleted her tweet. Anybody get a screen shot?

She deleted the tweet then tweeted a new one.

LMAO  She is a complete fraud.  No alternatives, facts, answers and she can't even deal with reasonable challenges to her posts.

No screen shot but say that it was "shady" that they would double teams and add players onto rosters that left.

?..explain again..."they" and what "teams"

[UND1983]

How does one "double" a team?

my guess is how they count track, but who knows.

yeah didn't quite come out right. My bad.  Lammys think UND is being "shady" by adding players to rosters who left and double-counting sports.

 

[cberkas]

Pretty much didn't like that people are on rosters that are no longer on the team.

Nobody watches the World Championships, mens OR womens.  

WiSioux apparently felt my comment was worth a -1.  I guess while we're all busy watching the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs, he'll be busy searching for the World Championships somewhere on TV.

If they took up a roster spot during the season it seems pretty reasonable to include them

I don't think that's possible.

Pretty obvious what the twins playbook consists of now.  When they want to push an issue they go straight to twitter, start a hash tag, talk about a sexist comment they "heard", talk about how women are getting hosed when it comes to everything, ever, try to appeal to as many women's rights crusaders as possible, use Title IX alot, use "fair and equitable" alot, and then keep on doing it over and over.  

In this day and age nobody is going to argue because it's the right thing to do.  They are "taking a stand".

Haha.  That is what they are going off of?  Again, ignoring all the numbers Kennedy likely laid out in the discussion.

They got Goon spreading the "boutique" comment, that still hasn't been verified.

I would have like UND to keep the team and if they did keep the team at least reel-in the operating cost back from $2 million. Some higher up obviously didn't caer to pay attention to the women's hockey teams cost and tell them we need to bring this down to $1 million. 

It had to be cut and no one has come up with a plan on how to keep the team.

The twins are making me want to fly the good riddence flag. 

[UND1983]

Their facebook page is a gong show, too.  No facts.  All emotion.

I forgot "point to something extremely unimportant that was collateral damage from the real issue and make it be the issue".

So Pens4 on USCHO got the quote form out of the blue, then someone else sourced that the letter said "boutique" from Jocelyn's Facebook. If this actually happened Brad would have done a story on it and on the Idalski's meeting with Kennedy that may or may not have even happened yet.

Someone with 15 posts in 2-3 years and nothing that shows they have any credibility is where that came from? Classic and literally no surprise.

I believe it went down.  Probably a parent or sibling.  I also think they are taking the boutique part out of context.  We don't know what Kennedy exactly means when he uses that term.

Or better yet someone is mad and just said he said it to make Kennedy look bad. That what they have been doing this whole time.

Idalski hasn't tweeted any meetings with Kennedy yet.

[Blackheart]

This whole thing is just sad.  What difference does it make if Kennedy called this a boutique sport or not?  A tough decision had to be made and unfortunately Women's Hockey got the axe.  I'll probably get roasted for this, but this decision is somewhat similar to the nickname issue.  Take emotion out of the equation and it was the only course of action that would work for UND going forward.  (Note:  I'm a Fighting Sioux guy through and through)  Flame away.
