I have no respect for anyone on Yale or Q and hope they both lose 10-0 next round.

I could see Q if you're still bitter about the 10-0 game and stuff like the double major. But why Yale?Chris '03

Because I'm a sports fan, and if I'm going to condition myself to root for Cornell when their success doesn't actually affect me in any way, then I'm going to hate their opponents, too. I don't want our biggest enemy of the past 6 years to win a national title. I don't care if you think that could help Cornell's recruiting or whatever; in my opinion, that's being a bad fan.

OK. Hating your opponents (in a sports sense) doesn't necessarily mean that you can't respect them too. But YMMV.BearLover

I choose not to rise to the bait on your last sentence.
