Krakhauer became famous for writing a first hand account of the 1996 Mt. Everest disaster. Wouldn't say there was any stiring of the pot in that novel. I would argue he is best known for Into the Wild. Again, not sure what was controversial in that book.
You have seen the ride first hand hugh? I guess I never recall UM winning back to back to back to back national championships. I don't think there is any NDSU fan delusional enough to say our championship run won't end. With that being said, there is no reason to believe NDSU won't be a contender most years, like the Griz have been. I certainly do not see that coming to an end and there isn't any reason anyone could present to say that it would. I do believe most Griz fans would love to see that happen. I think a lot of you are jealous of NDSU's success and struggle with the fact that it isn't your program.
Jay-sus you are thick. Let me help you out. The Griz had the most wins of any Division I team 2000 to 2010, FBS or FCS. Clearly that constitutes an winning tradition. They have also played in (not won) more NCs (7) than your Bizon. If doesn't qualify Griz fans as having experienced being at the top in your mind then you are fooked in the head. I wasn't trying to diss UNDSU fans in any way (like I did just now), I was just offering a cautionary tale of enjoy it while you have it. If you can't appreciate that then you deserve whatever fate has in store for your precious Bizon.
And while I'm helping you:
