Quick. Can someone give me a photograph of an ermine with a gopher in its mouth?

Here's a base.

"So, how did you come up with the name, Mr. Sith?"

Although I am on board with the Ermines movement has any market research be done to find out how the Ermines feel about this? Well they accept it or be offended? I was thinking that just in case the Ermines reject such a idea we should have a alternative. I propose the NDU Frackers, we are some bad ass Mother Frackers!

I'll fire off a letter on one of my overnight shifts this week. When does this contest end?

I kind of wonder how well-received oil field personnel are in North Dakota. It's pretty much the wild west over there.

April 30th is the decision date, so we need to keep hammering them until about the 29th.


I don't think the newspaper has printed my letter to the editor yet, but it's not yet the peak time anyway. I want it to appear in about three days.

We've gotten some traction on the Sioux Sports forum, but they're all over the place over there. No consensus at all, and some of the names being bandied about are atrocious. If we're going to make the ermine thing happen, it's up to us.

Okay, people. This is it. The last day. Can I have a big ermine push here? Go to the link and give them every reason you can think of to become ermines.

If cute and cuddly and will rip your face off isn't good enough for them, **** em.

With the whole Native American naming thing going on, I'm going to start suggesting it for the Chiefs after this. I shall not rest until there is a sports team named after the Ermines, and I will avidly root for any Ermine team.

Submitted two more Ermine suggestions.

Might want to try one of the baseball teams first. Especially the Cleveland Indians. They're probably the closest to breaking.

Hmm. I kind of hate to waste the Ermine name on a baseball team, but maybe we have to start small.

Cleveland Ermines doesn't have the same ring as UNDermines.

Infidel Goat 04-29-2015 12:09 PM

The Fra(c)kers.

And the mascot should don Battlestar Galactica gear.
