Could folks please e-mail John to let him know they're in as co-signers as he requested, rather than posting that here? Thanks. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey

Re: Thanksgiving weekend tickets idea - 21 years ago
With Age's permission, I sent a letter to the editor of the Cornell Daily Sun suggesting that students should use eLF's Ticket Exchange as a forum for getting rid of the BU tickets they'd be unable to use, thus allowing other interested parties to fill in the inevitable gaps. But they haven't printed the letter, and I assume they're not planning to do so. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Harvard(sucks) @ Lynah - 21 years ago
That was sort of the intended gist of my "independent source" question, BRA. But remember, I'm in law school now - so I need to see evidence and refutation. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Harvard(sucks) @ Lynah - 21 years ago
No word of this that I can find on USCHO or elsewhere...does anybody have a report or an independent source on this? I find it difficult to believe, even though I never would have predicted a lot of what's already happened in this young season. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey

Re: Section G - 21 years ago
The Hahvahd game at home was in February that season, and by that point I'd already seen the student Faithful standing until the first goal several times since my first game in Nov. '87. Whether that's the first time we stood the entire game, I couldn't tell you - though I will say that I don't specifically recall having stood the entire game until at least a year or two later. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Section G - 21 years ago
Beeeej, I didn't know that standing the whole game was a relatively new tradition, but it's one I'd like to keep. It's also a better incarnation of that basketball-esque idea of until the first score. Half of my recollection of this shift in the tradition was very much like Robb's - that there had been an inordinate number of home shutouts over the course of a couple of dismal seasons. But a quby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: At Dartmouth Tickets - 21 years ago
Princeton actually does sell out; the question is usually more along the lines of whether the ticket-holders actually show up. So there may be empty seats, but no tickets to be had. Try to buy in advance through Cornell. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Section G - 21 years ago
And it wasn't even all that long ago that the tradition was not to stand for the whole game, but to stand only until Cornell scored their first goal - at which point the Faithful were generally pretty glad to get to sit down. So while it's pretty frustrating that the cops would enforce their will so selectively and abusively, the "fighting for tradition" argument doesn't hold a lot of wby Beeeej - Hockey

Amen, Greg.

Re: [Off-Topic] "Sports Night" reference on Oct 30 "West Wing" - 21 years ago
Nina Siemaszko, who I remember best as Ellie Bartlet on one episode of The West Wing, but also had roles in The American President and Sports Night. Bingo. She was Beth Wade (Sidney Ellen Wade's sister) in "The American President," and Holly, Casey's nanny, in "Sports Night." Give that man a porn e-newsletter subscription! Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey

Trademarked. Both of 'em. Believe me, everywhere your mind is taking you to think of how to get around this issue, the University Relations people have almost certainly been there first. Beeeejby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Andy Noel - 21 years ago
I think the guy who ran the Lanes and taught bowling classes my first few years at Cornell was named Sam Partigiani (I'm sure about the "Sam" part), and he was also fantastic. He was funny, loved the students, and really cared about what he was doing. I managed to get up to a pretty consistent 210 my second semester of bowling before - as apparently others have done before and since -by Beeeej - Hockey
Re: [Off-Topic] "Sports Night" reference on Oct 30 "West Wing" - 21 years ago
Far more likely is that Josh Malina's character, Will Bailey, will replace Sam. Josh is one of Sorkin's favorite actors - he's the only one to have had a speaking role in all five of Sorkin's major successes, "Malice," "The American President," "A Few Good Men," "Sports Night," and "The West Wing." The closest anybody else has gotten is havingby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: copyrights - 21 years ago
Assume that I know how to write a disclaimer that sufficiently informs you that I'm only offering my opinion and you shouldn't construe it as legal advice, and that I put such a disclaimer right here. Okay, good. The printer is merely covering his own ass when he reminds you of the requirement to obtain permission to use copyrighted and trademarked materials on a shirt and/or refuses to printby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Surprised it took them so long... - 21 years ago
They're required to attempt to enforce their trademark in every instance in which they know about the potential infringement. I'm sure you must be able to comprehend that a trademark holder can't be expected to enforce ownership of a mark when they don't know it's being used. (As Age has theorized, someone in Athletics has only very recently been kind enough to notify University Relations, andby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Surprised it took them so long... - 21 years ago
What you believe about Age's picture doesn't matter very much. Trademark holders need to enforce their mark on every apparently unauthorized use of it, or they lose their mark. If Age mounts a reasonable defense under "fair use," they can back down, or they can take him to court and risk losing. As for "loser pays" laws, most of them are really designed to protect corporatiby Beeeej - Hockey
Re: Surprised it took them so long... - 21 years ago
First of all, one of the reasons institutions employ people to send out letters like that is because the courts have long interpreted a lack of effort to enforce intellectual property ownership as a sign that you're not interested in retaining it. In fact in lawsuits over trademark infringement, the owner can't just show that someone else used their mark - the owner usually has to provide evidenby Beeeej - Hockey

Well, I have to admit that I'm tempted to draft the letter to Cornell Magazine myself. I've been known to string a few good words together from time to time.

Re: Andy Noel - 21 years ago
I happen to like Andy as a human being, too. Of course he and others in Athletics make decisions differently from the ones we would make - and we can judge them for it, but we can't say we know all of the factors that went into their decisions or all of the competing pressures they were under when they made them.

Re: Quotes - 21 years ago
The comment about the credit card payment was indeed from me. I guess nobody else shares that concern, huh? I guess I'm just not sure what it is you're concerned about. Do you not have any other arrangements with any other merchants for any other products or services where they bill you on a monthly basis? Your ISP, for instance? Isn't there something in the agreement with the provider that sby Beeeej - Hockey
