UND is -not- considering these names

[MrTitleist]

This is quite a long and entertaining list of nicknames that UND won't be considering. Anyone have a guess how many times "Bison" shows up in here?

rationale? everyone thinks it's ok to have mascots insinuating native americans. why not have a mascot that insinuates white americans?

Those damn insinuating mascots!

Telephone poles
Honors the state tree

I literally cannot stop laughing.

The fact that that is a UND release.... :lol:

Seven of these knot heads picked "Grizzlies". Now if they'll just change the name "Grand Forks" to Missoula, the Grizzlies Envy will be complete.

They'll probably pick something like Roughnecks or something.

North Dakota jokes abound. I thought they died off ten years ago but good ole ND just keeps them coming..... on into the next 100 years.
