Vermont just knocked off Harvard 2-1 in OT

So does Harvard sucking against HE teams in the fall mean they'll actually show up for the Beanpot?

3-10-0. This just in: Teddy Donato is not the second coming of Bill Cleary.

Hartford scores 13 of the last 14 points to beat the basketball team, 63-61.

But at least he's more of a looker than Mazzanino (or whatever his name was).

Sadly you mean the Univeristy and not the player...

Mazzoleni, I believe the description goes "he looks like a guy whose dog just died."

Here's to hoping Harvard has to play on the road in the first round of the ECACHL playoffs. I do not want to see them in Albany (whether we're there or not).

Hey, I've got a good idea: Don't.

We all forgot to wish Thomas a very happy anniversary. It's been 2 years and 144 cases since Thomas last spoke up at oral arguments. On Feb. 22, 2006, a death penalty case out of South Carolina saw Thomas actually ask a question.

So....HAPPY ANNIVERSARY CLARENCE.

If you think 30 minutes of oral arguments and questions from the justices have any real impact on their decisions I would say you're probably mistaken.

They may not affect the vote much but I do think that they help shape the opinions. Thomas has long been on the record as thinking they are borderline worthless, however.

I think they might shape the decisions in a few cases but more often I think they simply telegraph what the justices have already decided. The back and forth between the justices can be informative for the public and even entertaining. Maybe not worthless but then the fact that a justice can not be present at the oral argument and still vote on the case says volumes,

In response to these stories yesterday, conservative law prof Orin Kerr blogged about the nature of oral argument at the SCOTUS level being more about Justices using counsel as witnesses in order to persuade each other as opposed to counsel trying to persuade them. [volokh.com]
