I'd doubt you'd be man enough to stand up to your comments, but also doubt Berry would stoop down to your level to teach you. Either way I'd pay to watch that. I'll stand up to my comments any day of the week and take your money while I am at it. I can't help it that you get offended by words so easily. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I'm going to say there are probably some in the ND legislature that knew about this if it has been out there for awhile like some suggest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Walsh Hall Posted December 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2022 Folks think that Berry would risk decades of good will, and his professional name, for a few bucks on a few jerseys? There was absolutely nothing surreptitious about this. If you're trying to hide something this ain't how you do it. Some of the speculation is completely bonkers. Risk your livelihood and reputation for $100,000?... come on... If there was something nefarious by Berry it would be an all time bonehead move. I don't see it. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petey23 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 8 minutes ago, The Sicatoka said: Well if wild speculation is the game ... and following Frozen's trail ... Brad and some cohorts (he'd need a lawyer like the name in Port's story) decide they don't want to use the official UND nickname. So they pick what Berry wanted during voting and use Brianna's LLC to get control over it. They have no profit intent in mind. They just want their own hockey nickname that isn't UND's official name. They get the word and use it, thus creating a new identity that is not UND's official identity. Ingenious. And insubordinate. CSU-Long Beach- 49ers 1949ers Beach Dirtbags Pretty sure the baseball team just started calling themselves and marketing themselves as "the dirtbags"....would like to know how that whole process played out.

And what a great way to market your brand by having 175 different identities. Maybe McDonald’s should try making their locations recognizable by changing the colors, going with “Mickey D’s or Mack Daddy’s… …wait, a separate brand sounds like a horrible idea. But at least there aren’t Hawks logos on the hockey jersey fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can always count on a good video reference from you. I like sights and sounds better than reading. Im as big of fan as the next person in here, but frankly, this doesn’t move the needle for me. Couldn’t really care less. That may be ignorant but the program will go on regardless of staff, Jersey, or nickname they have. And I’ll still watch and cheer on the green.

Oxbow6 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Hypothetically per @Walsh Hall$100K is good chunk of change for Gen Z or Millennial....depending on her age.

dden3 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 What if BB fully disclosed this to his boss at the time it was done and they all agreed this would just be considered a perq and part of his deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozen4sioux Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Maybe the disconnect is that I don't feel threatened by a word so much as the HAWKZIs are..... I see the NODAK sweater more like the fun NBA city nickname jerseys or MLB Fauxbacks. Not as a replacement of a nickname such as NODAKS... of which the University should have absolutely held onto the trademark for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleaner ... as long as he recused from jersey decisions also. But still not a great look. And why not tell that to the press and be done?

What I mind is the daughter of the coach who ordered the jerseys holding the trademark. Give it to UND. Say you would've done it sooner but forgot. And let's move on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
