Re: FREE?? - 21 years ago
Whoa there fella...whats with the profanity? Firstly...I was on loans/grants and all of that good stuff...so please don't tell me that I lack compassion or the understanding of what that is like. I personally worked 3 jobs while at Cornell (one of which was actually at the gym...good way to get a free membership and avoid that extra bill) and paid for everything myself...if you really must knby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: FREE?? - 21 years ago
I do see the point of not being charged in separate bills... But you keep saying 'should be included' in a 30K + education...I still don't understand your concept of 'included in'. Also...from what I remember...when you sign up for gym/internet/etc...you can have them CornellCard it anyway, which just goes on as part of your bursar bill But basically Cornell decided it would charge people forby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
[OT] Hot Truck or Louie's? - 21 years ago
OK...we started the discussion in the Andy Noel posting and I decided to make this a new one... I'm a Hot Truck fan...but seemingly some people seem to think that Louie's is 'Far superior'...say it ain't so!!!by bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Louies? Uggh... HOT TRUCK!!! - 21 years ago
Memories of LOUIES??? Say it ain't soooooo!!! Has the movement of freshmen to North transitioned the Cornell memories from Bob (who unfortunately has retired from what I understand) and Hot Truck to that other grease truck????by bigggreddd77 - Hockey
FREE?? - 21 years ago
Adam, Bottom line is that things cost money. You're going to be charged in some way no matter what... Wether its an extra charge that as part of the student activity fee for EVERYONE regardless of wether they use the gym or not...or just charging the people that use it. Any costs for internet or gym will be paid by the students regardless. The only difference is wether mommy and daddy blindlby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: Andy Noel - 21 years ago
I have never seen it, but I do believe that Age's feed was probably great and its quality or reliability would NOT be improved by having a corporation do it. But...I do think there is something to be said for having one cohesive corporation providing sports marketing/communication for the entire university. So...if that is 'selling out' then I guess I'm a terrible human being for thinking thatby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: Professionalism... - 21 years ago
Sheesh... I was trying to compliment you...and just trying to say that I feel like Cornell is trying to make their athletics program a little more professional...which I really don't think is a bad thing... And...to help you out a little...I'M A WEB DEVELOPER...and I DO know what is involved in streaming audio as we provide live market calls to our financial advisors on the website that I worby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Professionalism... - 21 years ago
While I do agree that Age does an amazing job and I'm sure he is more than capable of providing Cornell Athletics with all of their needs...the issue comes down to professionalism... We are not dealing with a high school athletics program here...but sometimes it seems as if a lot of people are treating it with that kind of mentality. Cornell athletics has seemingly entered a contract with the hby bigggreddd77 - Hockey
a defense??? - 21 years ago
I used to be an employee of the athletics department (statistician for sprint football, lacrosse, basketball) with Laura and Pat Gillespie and I really don't understand why you guys have such big problems with the department. Maybe I'm out of touch having been out of school for a few years...who knows? I must say that I actually thought that the new logo was kind of cool...makes Cornell look aby bigggreddd77 - Hockey

Re: Cornell's Finest Gladiator - 21 years ago
In case you're curious...the guys name is Lee Reherman aka. Hawk. Hmmm...his name was Hawk...I wonder if he had an 'H' on his ass too? I briefly met him while I was up in the press box working at a sprint football game...he had come up to watch...really nice guy...by bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: Cornell at Harvard Tickets - 21 years ago
Now...I'm not sure who you and Melissa are...but the more Cornell fans in the area the better! And you definitely do not need to worry about making me deaf...if I still have a voice at work on Monday, I consider it to be an unsuccessful weekend! (Those tourney weekends at Placid and Worcester were especially tough on the voice last year) OK...nooooow I'M EXCITED!!!!by bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: Cornell at Harvard Tickets - 21 years ago
And...this was after calling the Harvard ticket office and having the guy tell me that they were sold out. I went to the Harvard athletics web page and bought it online...weird...maybe they are different pools of tickets?by bigggreddd77 - Hockey

USCHO messageboard poll/NYC trips? - 21 years ago
Feel free to vote for Cornell in the poll I've posted on the USCHO message board. I've got a super big craving for some Cornell hockey right now. Do any of you guys make road trips up from NYC to go to games? I was at Placid and Worcester this past year and really want to get to more games. What road trips have you guys from NYC made...is Union/RPI a good weekend to go to in Albany?by bigggreddd77 - Hockey
Re: NCAA Tix - 22 years ago
Well...at this point I'm guessing that if you don't have tickets by now, you probably will have a near impossible time of getting them. But...just to share my attempt at getting tickets. I spoke to Pam at the Worcester Center yesterday who handles the group tickets and she said that she wouldn't know if she had any group blocks to play with until 3 PM.
