        At least North Dakota just loses nicknames, not the team itself.

          Roughriders is the only one with merit, IMO. I'd rather be Whioux. It has pretty good humor, a lot of meaning, and a little bit of Grinch, which is what we are on the ice. You're a mean one . . .

              When you got it back did they bring their Stanley Cup with them?
              That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                  Won't the Hispanic people protest Roughriders because of their imperialistic overthrow of the Spanish government in Cuba?

                    This whole process is quickly approaching the biggest joke in sports. I can't wait until they make their "final" decision and announce the new name, print all the new letterhead and logowear, then the state riots and burns down their only tree because the winning name wasn't "Fighting Sioux" and the President sends it back to committee to start over again with the whole process delaying the new nickname for another 2-3 years...

                      Oddly enough, the people who seem most concerned or outraged by this didn't attend UND, or have little interest in the school other than as an observer or hockey opponent.

                              Actually, you got a new team. Just like NoDak will get a new nickname (maybe the NoDaks!).
