    Back a few decades, didn't UND use the Blackhawk logo?

      Not everyone likes to stare at dog genitalia. But, you gotta be yourself.

      Not only that, but how could a dog be both genderless and gay?

          Yes, then they held a contest to get a new logo... and came up with an almost identical design that they'd been using ever since.

            I don't know what is the bigger joke... the process UND used to get a new nickname or the obsession of opposing fan bases with it. Nothing new for st cloud fans though... they probably come in second only to goof fans for their NoDak obsession level. When you have such a little insignificant program like theirs I suppose you need to obsess over something.

              I'm campaigning for Jet the Hawk to be the mascot. He's from Sonic the Hedgehog or something. I don't know.

                Hooray, more bird mascots...

                Could've at least gone with an original bird nickname, like Wideons or Geese, or Goldeneyes.

                    It's easy to hate UND when the fan base decides to quickly replace MN in terms of arrogance and ******-baggery within the conference.
                    My favorite is how many within the UND fan base blame SCSU for forcing the name change.
                    So nice that they think we have that kind of power.

                      I take offense to that. My arrogance and ******-baggery has never waned nor has any other UND fans. You obviously just weren't paying attention. Plus even if that wasn't true, who else could've done the job? If you didn't want the job, don't then turn around and complain about how the job is being done. You had your chance.

                        Somebody had to do it and none of the other teams are good enough.....except maybe Denver, but they don't have fans.

                          Do you see a bunch of UND fans clogging up the st cloud threads? I know I have no reason to go into them... but yet cloud fans keep infecting NoDak threads like some kind of STD. Obsession.

                            Don't let it bug you so much. When you're the best you have to expect tag-a-long fanboys to follow you around like lovesick little puppies and just need to accept that this sort of thing will always occur. The only thing we could do to stop it is stop being so awesome, but everyone knows that we will never stop being awesome.

                              If we had threads...yes they would be there.
                              They always have been before, it wouldn't stop now.
                              And don't confuse hate with obsession.

                                Remember when you physically threatened Mike Eidelbes because he was clowning on UND? That was pretty pathetic.
