There are some 492 flights, and if you booked earlier, it was probably cheaper.

I no longer drive 100 miles to see the Hens win against lesser opponents, what makes you think I'd come to North Dakota to see them lose to a better one?

Thanks! As a newbie, I do appreciate those words of wisdom from such a distinguished elder hen such as yourself. Being a new kid on the block I do appreciate the advice.

Crap I wanted to watch this one but the only thing I see on the watch ESPN menu is a Spanish Language webcast on ESPN+. When I click on ESPN+ it asks if I want a free trial. But then it asks for credit card information and it's one of those things where you have to remember to cancel at the end of the free trial period or they start charging you.
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

It's only $5 if you forget.

Already watched a 30 for 30 I have always wanted to see with my ESPN+ subscription. Slaying the Badger.

35-0 halftime

Honestly, Delaware just needs to discontinue the football program. It's a complete and utter embarrassment.

I apologize to NDSU fans for putting you through three hours of a D-III team masquerading as an FCS program.

Well, the positive is the Hens scored 10 late to cover my wager.

Delaware was better than the score indicated. Once they got accustomed to the Fargodome, well it was too late, but they do have a solid team.

:lol:

We suck, bro. Eighth non-playoff year in a row. Time to clean house again, or better yet just fold the program. I'm completely serious. We're beyond a critical point where we can ever regain a fan base at this point.

They “got better” once NDSU emptied
The bench in the second quarter because the game was already over.


Also...how bout them A&T Aggies?

The Bison O-Line and D-Line are very strong and deep this year. Menard even faked out the refs, because he was so fast, he was called for off-side.
