    The portion of North Dakota on the northern side of the Laurentian continental divide used to be part of Canada. That's why they had to plan canals to get water from Lake Sakakawea to Fargo in the Garrison diversion proposal.

    It's OK to not be OK.

    Didn't realize Black Flag was on a reunion tour.
    Rule #76: No excuses, play like a champion!

    Obviously there are some here who never competed in "Know Your State."

    I will say I only recently learned that the divide was the original LA purchase Northern boarder. I had always assumed it was the 49th parallel.
    Some say it's a backward place. Narrow minds on a narrow way, but I make it a point to say. That that's where I come from.

    On some level, it would have been nice if it had stayed that way. (Thinking of the continuing problems between the US and Canada over water issues.) But that border would have been a nightmare.

    During the game day thread, you will learn that Bisonville has far superior minds than any of our national championship coaches. Thoughts that show extreme knowledge of the finer points of the game, like "Run the Damn Ball!!".

    You may also discover that purple font helps the literal readers of the world know "THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS STATEMENT".

    Haha thanks for the heads up! CSU doesn't have a game day forum. BUT...we follow our USC Gamecocks on CockyTalk and the last 10 years it's amazing how many people here in SC knew more about offensive play calling than Steve Spurrier. They wrote in ALL CAPS so he could get the advice quicker and clearer.

    It's so flat here that when those black flags are on the horizon, they will be about 26 miles away in Barnesville so we'll have plenty of warning.

    Isn't the Laurentian Divide the divide between water that flows to the St. Lawrence Seaway and elsewhere? I believe that is distinct from the continental divide that separates water flowing from the gulf of Mexico to the Hudson Bay, no?
