Discussions about the Cornell men's and women's hockey teams
Re: Hahvahd @ Cornell 01/27/17 - 7 years ago
As I've mentioned before, I think that a large part of the non-attendance by students issue is millennial. There are so many digital ways to capture their attention, a 2 1/2 hour, live action hockey game just can't compete. Just look at the latest NBA discussions about shortening events because kids' attention spans are so limited. Yes, I've marveled of late about the number of students who arby Johnny 5 - Hockey

Re: St. Lawrence 2 vs. Cornell 3 1/21/17 - 7 years ago
Plan A: When they forecheck and backcheck hard, when they use their speed, and their passing is crisp they look like a team on fire. See periods #1 & 3 last night. Plan B: When sit back and play zone, when they lackadaisically skate the puck up ice, when they ever so deliberately slide the puck from man to man to man on on the power play they look like a team on Valium. See period #2 last niby Johnny 5 - Hockey
Re: Florida College Classic - 7 years ago
Trotsky ugarte upprdeck there is losing and not playing well.. there is also losing and just not winning. they played well and controlled game 1, game 2 they played fine, had far the better chances, gave up a short handed breakaway type goal and a sloppy one to cost them the game after doing a good job to kill off a PK. its hockey and you can be the better team and lose any night. they goal isby Johnny 5 - Hockey

Re: Cornell vs Colgate - 7 years ago
margolism This is still a pretty young, relatively inexperienced team. This is only the QBs third start. True. But, so far they've shown a lot of poise for being such underdogs.by Johnny 5 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs Colgate - 7 years ago
margolism The QB (a sophomore) played on the JV team last year. And I believe we have a *** freshman QB on the team who has yet to play. Well, he's definitely got one hell of an arm!!by Johnny 5 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell Football 2016 - 7 years ago

Should I not say 'Hath a dog money? is it possible A cur can lend three thousand ducats?' Or Shall I bend low and in a bondman's key, With bated breath and whispering humbleness, Say this; 'Fair sir, you spit on me on Wednesday last; You spurn'd me such a day; aby Johnny 5 - Hockey

jkahn Johnny 5 Heck, wasn't Roy Kerling like 38 his senior season?? Not even close, born 10/17/58 - freshman year was '77-'78, so he just turned 19 at the start of his first season. Kidding. Maybe he just looked 38??by Johnny 5 - Hockey

Could this be the definitive season extender? Can they pull off another big surprise, like they did against the Orange?! Hey, let's hear a rousing chorus of.... "Let's Go Red!!"by Johnny 5 - Other Sports
Re: Lax Cornell 13 Lehigh 12 - 8 years ago
Yes, Lehigh got kinda robbed. But, like Sallahudin used to say, "A win is a win!" Just like every other game this season, way too many UFE. But, at least we won almost all of the FO's. I would think that 'Cuse should feel exponentially more screwed. And, the offense is still so bread and butter. Boy, do I miss Pannell to Mock. Or, the question mark? But, a win is a win!
