Just like all those "donors" who swore that they wouldn't give another penny to UND if the Fighting Sioux name and logo changed? I won't hold my breath. I don’t think you have to look to far to see real life examples. Don’t hold your breath too long. It may not be the individual donations that hurt (although some will), it will be the corporate donations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players have plenty of opportunities to show support for racial equality. If they can't think of any other way. This is an educational opportunities for the University to educate the players in question. Another option is the players can give up their scholarships, you know put some skin in the game.

The Fighting Sioux nickname issue was WAY more explosive than this. And if people want to abandon UND over this, then they shouldn't let their keisters hit the door on the way out. I will ALWAYS support UND. Period. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems maybe you read for reaction rather than comprehension. Quote a single one. Post it in response to this. I'll wait. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 So what about the players that don't support this protest? Probably best to not say anything? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I think it falls square on Hockey I mean, it is what it is. Its 100% on the hockey team at this point, as was the MM discussion. Unfortunately.

We've seen this over and over again. If they say anything to oppose the protest they'll be "racist". So - they'll say nothing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he shouldn't face persecution for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snooty89 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I'm not really sure what a bunch of white kids that have had a silver spoon stuck in their mouths from the moment they showed skills playing hockey really have to kneel about. Tons of racism up on the campus these days apparently. Wasn't that was in early 2000's when i would drink with anyone no matter the color of their skin. How about have some balls and create some real controversy and support the Blue. That actually would make sense given the events of this past year in Grand Forks. Very disappointing. I guess kids are stupid. Now don't get me wrong I'll try forget the ones kneeling are idiots and still cheer for them, but ugh. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Does racism exist in the world today? Yes. Is it as widespread and rampant as the activists portray it? No. Does kneeling bring awareness to the issue? Sure. Is it going to make a difference in the long run? Probably not much. We can all do our part to be good people and not discriminate against those different than you. Be the best person you can be. But that decision to do that has to be mad by each person individually. No amount of kneeling can change the type of person you are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of hockey players have working-class backgrounds and their parents sacrificed a lot of things so they could play hockey. Are some of them spoiled? Probably. Are all or even most of them? I don't believe so. Our program has had athletes of good character as long as I have followed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like I could’ve scored cheap or free game tickets just based on all the chapped asses in this thread. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once that happened everyone could see it coming unfortunately. As for this, we will see. Everyone has he right to make their own choices regarding this issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
