Re: Article on Top 10 Lynah Faithful Traditions - 10 years ago
ScrewBUHarvardtoo I have another article coming up about the history of the Lynah Faithful (I'll post it here when it's up) and I do mention camping out for tickets, and how back then the true fans would line up outside Lynah hours before games. I also make a plea to student to actually show up early to games (can't tell you how much it pisses me off when the student section is not even half fullby BearLover - Hockey

Re: What is your definition of a Successful Season - 10 years ago
Nothing is a successful season at this point unless we win the National Championship, thanks to what Yale did last year. Prior to this year I would have said making the NCAA's is a successful season. I would perhaps settle for making the NCAA's and embarrassing Yale and Q horribly (don't care about Harvard really).by BearLover - Hockey

Congrats to Greg. One of my favorite players of the past four years. Best numbers on the team for three years, played with a lot of heart, and a great guy.by BearLover - Hockey

Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Terrible, terrible season. Everything that could have possibly gone wrong, did. No one on the team seemed to have progressed. One game from a home playoff series. 80 seconds from AC. Almost every other ECAC team seemed to have gotten better. God forsaken Yale won the national championship. Will Cornell be back next year? Probably, but it will be in spite of this absolute disaster of aby BearLover - Hockey
Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Chuck Henderson I think BearLover's arguments are being given too little credence. It's interesting that most serious posters, by which I guess I mean long-time posters whom I would usually agree with, are on the other side of the debate. (In the context of this discussion only, I might almost say Very Serious Posters, but I suppose that's not really fair.) Have we really been losing that maby BearLover - Hockey
Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Kyle Rose KeithK WEll, an ECAC team is going to win this year and we'll have the effects of that (good or bad) whether we weanted them or not. Yup: there's nothing I could do about it even if I agreed with ButtLover. At this point, IMO it would be fine if both Q and Yale lost; fortunately for the ECAC, that is not a possible outcome.

Kyle Rose ALL ECAC, BITCHES. It is unfortunate you derive such pleasure from something that will ultimately hurt Cornell, and gloat about it here when most of us do not see it as you do.

Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Trotsky BearLoverI think the cons outweight the pros, because we are directly competing with the others schools that benefit from this. Nationally, we may get some better recruits from the other conferences. But recruits also want to go to a program that wins. The ECAC slice of the recruit pie will increase, but Cornell's overall share I expect to stay largely the same, or increase slightly.by BearLover - Hockey

Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Trotsky BearLoverThe conference shedding its image as uncompetitive will obviously help us. It will also help everyone else in our conference. Yale, Q, and Union are going to reap the far majority of the reward. The chances of Cornell winning the ECAC will significantly decrease (as they have the past 10 years, as the conference has gotten better). That means fewer trips to the NCAAS. That aby BearLover - Hockey

Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Kyle Rose Jordan 04 An all-ECAC final is a nice shove-it in the face of HE and WCHA fans, but it's definitely a tough pill to swallow that a non-Cornell ECAC team will win the title after all we've been through the last 10 years. Play better. "All we've been through" (oh, the humanity!) does not win games. That's not the point at all...by BearLover - Hockey
Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Kyle Rose BearLoverIt's been so long since we have been the best (in 2010 we only won the ECAC because Yale got upset earlier) that we have much bigger things to worry about than how well our rivals are doing. Exactly. I was 50% sure you were going to post exactly this. My sentence was badly phrased, but I obviously meant that we have far more pressing concerns than that the ECAC is not strong eby BearLover - Hockey
Re: Frozen Four Results - 11 years ago
Kyle Rose BearLover Kyle Rose W00t! Go Yale! Now, let's make it an all-ECAC final. This makes absolutely no sense to me. I hope you're happy when all the hockey players who care about getting an education start going to Yale instead of Cornell (if they haven't started already). I hope you're happy that the team which has caused Cornell more hardship over the past six years than any other isby BearLover - Hockey
