Why would they agree to this if it initially only needed one tribes approval and they have always had that? Something doesn't make sense with your statement, not that I want to get into ANOTHER nickname argument with you! Quote

The NCAA required two tribes to approve the name, UND had one. the extension was asked for to try and get approval from the 2nd BTW, I like mark as the SSB singer Quote
UNDBIZ Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Lawsuit settlement requiring 2 tribes' approval reached in October 2007. Spirit Lake didn't have their vote of approval until April 2009. 1 Quote

After both sides sign the settlement as expected, the lawsuit will be dismissed with prejudice, according to North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem. Quote
Rebel_Sioux Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I always liked TSgt Robert Carter from the AFROTC Detachment. Then again,I personally knew him so I may be biased. Quote

Spirit Lake didn't have their vote of approval until April 2009. You're right of course, they did vote to approve the name after the agreement. It was after Standing Rock refused to vote, and we lost the name, that Spirit Lake added that it was always approved due to the ceremony Quote

LuvHockey Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 I miss MJL singing every time there is a female vocalist, They sing too slowly and drag out the Anthem. Every one of them! That is why MJL is the BEST!! He sings it correctly. 2 Quote
siouxforcefans Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Remember Mark was Cleveland's requested choice for a World Series game - if the LCS's had been over in 4 or 5, the World Series could have started this weekend, and a few weeks ago Cleveland was a favorite to get back there. I'm guessing Mark was blocked out from singing in case he had to be in Ohio. Turns out, he appears to have been in Philadelphia Sunday... Quote
