Other ECAC 2-27-09

Clarkson beat RIP 4-2 but not without a rally from 4-0 by the Engineers. Apparently the rally bothered the Clarkson band. Listen to what happened with 41 seconds remaining in the third period. How surprising that these well behaved CCT folks seem to lose their composure.




Game clip

Well at least RPI looked really sharp in those pink and black jerseys with the matching pants and helmets.

My eyes still hurt from watching that clip, but from Clarkson's day-glo yellow jerseys.

I couldn't make out much of anything on that clip. Care to enlighten those of us with sub-canine hearing ability?

If that's the case, Clarkson is allowed to do that at Cheel. It's their Disco Tech cheer.

The game was in Troy.

Give it a rest, Jim.

You should know by now that's "gold" as in "Golden Knights."

Rich isn't the only one who thinks Jim needs to give it a rest.

frankly, it doesn't help the Ivy League's reputation as snooty, spoiled, and self centered to hear someone complain because it isn't done the "Cornell" way that it is obviously the wrong way.

No matter that "the Cornell way" is what the rulebook says?

It has nothing to do with the Cornell way. The use of artificial noisemakers during play is prohibited not by Cornell but by the NCAA. Jim would have reason to be upset with the Cornell band too if they beat drums in the middle of play.

The Cornell horns kept playing "Rock'n'Roll Part 2" after the puck was dropped for the third period last night at Yale. Playing quietly, but playing.

And they shouldn't. We can certainly keep that going by ourselves. That's the beauty of it, the fact that the fans keep up a cheer by themselves. You have no idea how impressed other fans are when they see what happens. (Well yes you probably do have an idea.)


One of my retired partner's daughter, both are CU grads, brought her fiance up from Philly to see a game. He loves hockey and had the usual jaw dropping reaction to the crowd.

So band, do it by the rule book, we can handle the rest.

Can we at least keep the complaining about how Clarkson does things to when we do it against you guys?

Yes, I am aware. But I don't think the Clarkson band knows any better.

They might have also been inebriated, but that is just a personal observation.

I say, enjoy it while you can, kids.

Thanks, everyone, for all of the score updates from last night's action.

To my surprise, the only thing that happened in the ECAC, ouside of Cornell-Yale, was the Clarkson band played their drums during play.

At this point, Jim, I think it's been exhumed at least seven times now for added beatings. If all the red (and white, green, and gold) hasn't already been beaten out of it, I'd be shocked.

Ha hah...it's sad that the only colors you can appreciate are white and red...or is that "carnellian"?

Many teams wear colors that are not red and white and or are a variety of gold in case you hadn't noticed.

Josh,

If you're referring to your comment re: Clarkson being a second rate tier school connected to Subway, that deserves no comment other than it's laughable.

Maybe you should seek an opinion from the Subway spokesperson.

The refernence was brought up elsewhere earlier in this thread by someone else.
