Siouxperfan7 Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 So when are we finally going to see this new mascot? I thought for sure that it would be this weekend at the Homecoming game. Anyone heard any news about when they plan to unveil it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (Get your inner Eminem and 8 Mile groove moving in your head before you read ... ) I went to the Al to see the war birds And saw the new mascot without any words on the back of his jersey the new bird had no name Yet some fans in the stands found his presence profane Because they locked an a warp, in a time, in the past Where they live with an S word and a logo, can't last. That name, that thing flipped over, gone to the negs on the PR and the perceive scale to which everyone pegs the image in the world. So Ben got rolled up the and white hawk unfurled and Bubba embraced and said it to the world So that day has come, the new birds take flight And I watch those Fighting Hawks show off that North Dakota Might. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxperfan7 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Why do I get the feeling that if/when the students vote on a name, it's going to be "Hawkey." I mean, it's not horrible but seems like they would want a name that is all sports inclusive instead of a name that makes you think of only one sport at UND.

I can see them naming it something like Screech, or Greeny (more reference to the color than ESPN’s Mike Greenberg). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only can be named greeny if he eats wings with gloves on and his wife won't let me do anything remotely manly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
