I got the perfect nickname that would be very fitting and appropriate:  The UND Fighting Englestads!  Is there anything more perfect?

The Sioux should never have to change their name, but if they have to, their name should be:

how do you figure he is out of order, he is just stating the obvious. the truth is there isnt any nickname that anybody can think of that would be better than FIGHTING SIOUX.

it could easily be changed to warriors and in 20-30 years it would be a very good nickname right after it was changed people would be very angry but they would get used to it eventually

i use warriors because it is a common name so don't try to look into that

Ok, you tell me why it is so much better?  I mean you tell me how you justify the use!  Because it has been used for so many years?  Well not good enough. 

The Obvious would be to change it!  People, including myself, are offended!  :buttkick:

all i am asking is what part of the nickname he is so offended by. i mean you have to have a reason behind it. i mean i cant just walk out onto the street and look at the name of a restaurant and say I hate that name and i am offended. there has to be a reason behind it or it just doesnt have any value, it means nothing
