They don't know what they're missing at Harvard.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey

Keep this stuff up and I'll start another invisible topic.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Lake Placid TV Broadcast - 22 years ago
If it's a standard VHS recorder, it should be able to record either two hours (standard play) or six hours (extended play) on a "two hour" tape. But you've got to tell the recorder which you want. (Recording quality is better at two hours but then you miss the third period.)by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC awards brunch honors six players & Schafer - 22 years ago
Thanks. Nice to see E-T get the other first team D slot. Did Walsh get a mention?by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Milestones - 22 years ago
If that includes the 1-8-1 record from the Beebe Lake era, then we've made real progress.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC awards brunch honors six players & Schafer - 22 years ago
Kind of sad that while Ken chose never to sign an endorsement, the award given in his name has been commercialized by the wonderful ECAC.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC picks Grady - 22 years ago
Flat Ann Arbor is. Stanford, too. And Urbana-Champaign. Great universities all.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC awards brunch honors six players & Schafer - 22 years ago
Interesting there's no mention of POTY or ROTY. Presume Cavosie and Higgins. Hope Murray's pissed and hungry.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Biting Sun Article - 22 years ago
And I would guarantee that not coming home with the Whitelaw would be a big disappointment to this terrific team and its coaches. Schafer's quote on coaches corner Monday night was something like: "By Cornell standards we haven't won anything yet."by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Another pledge drive - 22 years ago
Before we worry too much over NHLFA and USCHO, I hope we've made Age whole on his already out-of-pocket hockeycam expenses.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: The Big Sheet - 22 years ago
That'll hold up in court. It's an easy thing to say: They're big; they must be slow. Like Eric Heiden. Baloney.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Ivy League and athletics - 22 years ago
Seems to me I just read a cover article in a major magazine (Business Week?) on the top college athletic programs in the country. Among the top 20 (in their listed-alphabetically rankings) were five or six Ivy League schools, including Cornell. The Ivies have, on the whole, many more sports, for both genders, than almost all others. Only Ohio State, of the big athletic factories, is up there wby Al DeFlorio - Hockey
"Storied" coaches - 22 years ago
Right on, Josh. Mangurian got out before the house of cards he built collapsed. Pietramala is already causing people to ask how long Johns Hopkins will put up with his sideline demeanor. Gil Dobie was a "storied" football coach (his glory years compare with Ned's--worth looking up). Carl Snavely was a very good football coach. Since then it's been downhill. Maxie Baughan might haby Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: The Big Sheet - 22 years ago
Can anyone document a real speed "disadvantage" top-to-bottom on the roster? I, for one, don't buy it.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: More new recruits (2003) - 22 years ago
The class coming in 2003 will have many big skates (literally and figuratively) to fill.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Canis latrans v. 99 Honda Civic - 22 years ago
Got a pictue of the coyote?by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Shafer Strategy? - 22 years ago
Thoughtful posting. Agree--although I don't think any of us observers, on either side, is really in a position to say how the "fight" started. And I don't think anyone here in the Cornell camp doesn't think Clarkson has what it takes to turn the tables in a game three.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Props from Yale coach - 22 years ago
And not a mention of the dreaded "clutching and grabbing" excuse.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Cornell presence at Thursday's game - 22 years ago
What Keith said. Fly 'em in pizzas from Canton, but don't cheer for 'em.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC picks Grady - 22 years ago
You mean...those statements might not be true?by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: ECAC picks Grady - 22 years ago
The Brown guys were simply over the top Saturday night.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Yale v. Cornell - 3/8/02 - 22 years ago
Thoughtful comments, John. Agree on all counts. Yale was a damn good 10th place team.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: It's there! - 22 years ago
>"Too bad you couldn't find it...it's there." Must be this: "I did clearly see cornell's # 7, Cook, slashing at a Tech player who's # I could not see in front of the net. Was it Poapst or O'Flaherty...I've read both? (Cook got away with a number of infractions during the game...a few right in front of us)...Kotyra looked right at it and did zippo...he should have blown the whiby Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Bright idea... - 22 years ago
>"Hagwell had no idea about it until I sent the e-mail." Has he ever had an idea? Or even a clue?by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
NC - 22 years ago
And they'll bring their air horn, siren, bell, train whistle, washboard, etc....only way you'll hear 'em.by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
I'm with Mike... - 22 years ago
From Monday's Sun" "I don't care. Doesn't bother me who we play," Schafer said."by Al DeFlorio - Hockey
Re: Hopes for the weekend - 22 years ago
With 17 doctoral programs, including a medical school, and a number of master's programs besides, Dartmouth would be perfectly justified to call themselves a university. Given the proclivity of too many schools these days to attempt to gain false prestige by calling themselves "university" on the skimpiest of pretenses (Colgate, for one), I admire Dartmouth's restraint and institutionaby Al DeFlorio - Hockey
