So….who do you dislike?

And we are not confined to any area of the state: GRIZ DL Sloan McPherson is from Savage, incoming GRIZ LB Bridger Salvevold is from Culbertson, legendary GRIZ coaches and players like Kraig Paulson from Plentywood, UM men's b-ball player and sll-time great Lady GRIZ coach Robin Selvig from Outlook, and his nephew and former GRIZ men's b-ball standout Derek Selvig from Glendive, GRIZ safety and Atlanta Falcon Shann Schillinger from Baker--all of them from Eastern Montana on the North Dakota border, and former GRIZ standout kicker and Miami Dolphin and 🦬 Buffalo Bills' kicker Dan Carpenter owns a ranch near Plentywood, and GRIZ great hoopster Shawn Samuelson from Broadus on the South Dakota border--he now lives in Billings.
( A lot of people in Eastern Montana get po'd when Billings is listed as being in Eastern Montana, since unlike Miles City, Sidney, Broadus, Glendive, Baker, Plentywood, Glasgow, Wolf Point and Wibaux, Billings is about 250 miles from the ND border on I-94 and about 230 miles from the South Dakota border on US Highway 212. Many of these ltrue Eastern Montanans were glad when Eastern Montana College in Billings became MSU-Billings as some of them told me. While Billings is close to Eastern Montana, we are located in South-Central Montana along with Livingston, Big Timber, Harlowton, White Sulphur Springs, Columbus, Absarokee, Red Lodge, Laurel, Bridgeroʻ and Roundup, etc. )[

While I am sure there are more Shi##ty Kitties east of The Divide than GRIZ, there is a good chance that many if not most of your local lawyers, pharmacists, and physical therapists at the local hospital in Miles City, Glendive, Baker, Plentywood and Sidney are GRIZ, not to mention some of the bankers, CPA's and teachers plus forest rangers--that's right, there are hundreds of thousands of acres in the Custer-Gallatin National Forest in SE Montana around Ashland and Ekalaka and mountains, from the Chalk Buttes near Ekalaka, the Wolf Mountains south of Colstrip, and the Montana Big Horns that cross from Wyoming north into SE Montana south of Lodge Grass with a few of the Montana Big Horns' peaks higher than 10,000 feet.
 
Like you'd know the first thing about engineering.
Here it is, the biggest day in a lot of days for your favorite team, and instead of getting pumped, hanging out with like-minded folks, and maybe getting the party started, here you are on your rival’s message board nit-picking people about academic programs in discussions that do not involve you and in which you are not wanted.

Might be time to re-evaluate, buddy.

SUCH a good point. Their team plays for a national championship in just a few hours. What are ANY of them doing hanging out on our board? It's truly psychotic.
 
You are right, UofMman, not only do we have a good business school, we have the best business school not only in Montana and in The Big Sky Conference but one of the finest in the entire country, according to US News & World Report, that has produced such great business leaders as DA Davidson CEO and Chairman Emeritus Ian Davidson and retired Nike President and COO Eric Sprunk. now serving on Nordstrom's Board of Directors ! ( Eric Sprunk has--with another UM business school alum, and hedge fund manager Mark Burnham--established a $ 2 million dollar endowment in 2017 for the chair of our business school. Eric's son Cooper was our starting center, graduated from The UM School of Business with both a bachelor's and his UM MBA in 2017 and was hired as a junior executive @ Nike: like father. like son. )

While those 31 Shi##y Kitty players cannot earn an MBA @ MSU school of business because MSU doesn't offer an MBA, they can always apply to our business school and if accepted, earn a prestigious UM MBA !!!

John Connors is another very accomplished alumnus.

 
And how many Shi##y Kitties are studying pharmacy, forestry, or are earning an MBA @ MSU in Boz Angeles ?

Wait for it ... that's right, ZERO--0 !!!
 
Great story on GRIZ John Connors, the pride of Miles City, and his venture capital firm Ignition Partners after his long and very successful career @ Microsoft as their CFO !!!

I do not know this for a fact, but since John was on Nike's board, he must be pretty good friends or at least know Eric Sprunk from UM, Nike's Board, or both !!!

Great story on a great GRIZ business school alum, accountant, businessman and entrepreneur !!!

I think you may want to re-evaluate. Telling someone that has an academic in the family some stupid advice because you have a hard on for a rival collage team. Go back to bragging about being everybody's hero. That's your wheelhouse.

The geographical East/West divining line for Montana is a line drawn from Havre through Lewistown to Laurel.
