The only official relationship I know of is Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. and Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Members of the NPHC, they share a constitutional bond.

Maybe I'm missing something (wouldn't be the first time and I'm sure it won't be the last), but as far as I can tell, the constitutional bond between Zeta Phi Beta and Phi Beta Sigma has not jeopardized either of their single-sex status. Nor that or any other GLO for that matter. So why couldn't an NPC and NIC/IFC do something similar (legal and constitutional bound) as well?

Did the thread get lame because Kevin demonstrated he's pretty much right?
Or is it because people are now going to have to debate the meaning of officially?

No it's because Kevin hates homeless people and beats them up for change. That's why it's lame.

Well, it's just not as hilarious to me as it is to you when people who don't know what they're talking about want to tell others that their organization's history and culture contravene some sort of rule or policy. Especially when they take such a rude/confident tone in doing so.
I have a decent sense of humor. It's just that for some reason, someone saying that I beat up homeless people isn't funny. Imagine that.

That should clear up your confusion.

During my NM period we did learn about the connection. Although not official, many member see the brother of Sigma Nu as brother. This is just something that each member feels. HQ supports the chapters in teaching NMs about the historical connection but many member like the thought of an unofficial brother fraternity. HQ never said that there was an offical connection. Also most members know that it is an unoffical connection but some don't care.
There is no Sigma Nu chapter at my school and I know that they are not our "brother" fraternity, but I still feel excitment and joy when I meet a brother of Sigma Nu. I guess that most members are just really greatful to them for all the help they gave our Founder.

If Kevin hadn't shot his mouth off in the first place, this thread would have never had to "go there."
