“Our”. That’s f###[#] hilarious.
As for Sam ndsu Herder, it’s only surprising he didn’t type, “I was in Missoula this weekend. but ndsu won by 6,000 in their game!!. Did I mention the bizzzzzon are really good?!?! Ndsu is the fcs. Loudest place on the planet. Does everyone love that green and puke yellow?? Ndsu plays in a DOME!!! Ndsu is GREAT!! Had a Mo Club burger”.
IdaGriz01 said:Actually, I have absolutely no problem with the article. In fact, I rather enjoyed it. I was simply reacting to the comment about "impartial" reporting (or lack thereof). [Unfortunately, that part didn't make it thru the quote within a quote feature.]Jesse said:Holy hell, are you saying his piece was “fake news”? That rat bastard writing an opinion piece and including his opinions about his first brawl of the wild experience and the FCS. ...
And no, it's not "fake news." But then it's not news either, in the normal use of that term. It is, as you point out, an "opinion piece" ... a perfectly legitimate form of writing. That was obvious right from the first line, and really almost from the title alone.
In that context, he said a lot of good things about the WaGriz experience and the importance of the Griz in terms of FCS football. That's what Hero Sports does, BTW. If you read their "About" item, you'll see "dedicated to college football, with an emphasis on FCS coverage." Far as I'm concerned, "it's all good."
Zirg said:I thought it was a fair article. He has to go back and live in Fargo the rest of the year, I assume. He needs to get the NDSU coaches insights year-round more than he needs to acquiesce Griz fans, so he took the easy way out and was wishy-washy. He basically admits that because he was in the Pressbox he couldn't fully appreciate or evaluate the loudness factor, which to me was an admission by omission. Sometimes you gotta read between the lines.
PhxGriz said:get'em_griz said:Good write up overall, but if he truly wanted to compare the noise level, he needed to be at field level to do it. The noise on the field is much, much louder than it is up in the press box.
In the fargodome, it sounds the same everywhere because there’s a thing called a metal roof keeping the sound enclosed.
It really is. I was in ROTC and used to Present the Colors before the game, only twice, but even when people would cheer after the Anthem was over, you REALLY had to yell just so the four person group could hear your commands and move in unison.
This was also before any expansions, just grassy knolls on the end zones. Still way loud.
grizingatorland said:I'm not really a fan of Sam Herder but in this case he was correct. Neither UM or MSU are currently in the top tier of fcs teams. It's basically NDSU, Sam Houston and JMU. Not sure how anybody can argue that point. I expect the Griz to join NDSU as the two main powers in fcs within a season or two.

The only things WAGriz is missing are (1) the laser light show, (2) the 1990s Chicago Bulls blackout for the starting lineups, and (3) the smell of a recent tractor pull.

Forrest fires we have, because we have, you know, more than one tree every 99 acres. But we have cows??
We have rednecks and hillbillies?? Damn, that sounds like a kick ass party!

Yep, you sure do...to both. Yee haw.... Shouldn't come as much of a surprise when your town has more farm animals than people roaming about.
As far as hillbillies and rednecks 20,000 plus every Saturday in the fall gathered at washington-grizzlie ... All crying an moaning about them missing cotton eye Joe.

It’s even worse than that. The dude admitted on here once that he actually moved from Nodak to MT and now lives here. His fat actions speak louder than his skinny words ever could.AZGrizFan said:Htowngriz said:I would laugh at a North Dakota resident throwing shade at Montana, but it's just too damn sad.
it's not that he's throwing shade, it's WHAT shade he's throwing....it's not like there aren't any hillbillies or farm animals in NoDak. :lol: :lol:
