Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
I know that Coach Schafer was the originator of many of the changes regarding swearing, however, many times athletics has taken it too far especially in threatening the band with various sanctions. There was a time when 'sucks' was considered taboo. I'd like people to get tickets but ticket prices increased along with with increased capacity.

Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
Your point that it is Skorton is completely and utterly wrong. J. Andrew has been on his crusade since as early as Rawlings, through Lehman, and now Skorton. I do want Cornell to be classier than say the N. Country where it's acceptable to yell pussy at a downed player or asshole for every penalty, but the arbitrary and capricious manner that Cornell singles out people during a time when you canby Tom Tone - Hockey
Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
I wonder if J. Andrew ever went to the N. Country, if his ears would bleed from some of the crap that comes out up there. LAUREL: From Kevin Vallely. To Cornell University's athletic department. Last Saturday, my daughter and I attended our first Cornell women's basketball game against Columbia University. It was a great game and we had fun. After the game, Jeffery Hall approached us and offeby Tom Tone - Hockey

Yes, J. Andrew should head out West after this lovely spectacle that was broadcast on tv. For those who can't hear it, the chant is 'Fuck you State' or this classy example from UND - where the Denver coach was ejected and attempted to sit in the penalty box.by Tom Tone - Hockey

I would love to know of anyone who gets thrown out for a 'curse-like' word or for substituting sounds. As a new grad student with way too much time on my hands, I would enjoy filing charges with the Judicial Administrator for violating people's freedom of syllables.by Tom Tone - Hockey

Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
I don't think there's a big deal about saying rough as opposed to fuck, just the manner in which Athletics is going about it. There was a time when the band was threatened with being kicked out of Lynah if they assisted in any cheer that involved the word 'sucks'. So no black hole or <School name> cheer. Instead of enforcing it individually as they used to do (with specially trainedby Tom Tone - Hockey
Re: Important message to ice hockey ticket holders - 15 years ago
This sounds like another one of Matt Coats' (everyone's favorite douchetard) plans to purify Lynah. At the games after break, he posted signs at every entrance stating: Profanity = Ejection as well as the disclaimer on the back of the ticket. Apparently, athletics hasn't quite discovered how to do landscape printing as of 2009. If they want to get rid of the word fuck, whatever. Buby Tom Tone - Hockey
Re: Cornell Women's Hockey - 15 years ago
The one anomaly to parity has to be the Union Women's team. Over the past six seasons, they have amassed a total of 5 points ( 1 win and 3 ties). Their last league win was a 4-0 drubbing of us in Feb. of 2003. I understand the importance of having an equal number of men's and women's sports but it's clear that they need to consider a move to a different conference or D-III. However, it iby Tom Tone - Other Sports
Re: Cornell 4 Clarkson 1 Postgame - 15 years ago
Overall, a pretty great game with the lone Clarkson goal coming after a disputed icing call. My one disappointment would have to be the addition of a lonely, cheap-looking ad for Shortstop on the side of the Zamboni. I was always proud of the fact that we didn't have ads plastered all over the sides, but this single one looks even worse.by Tom Tone - Hockey

Re: Very RUDE and Ignorant Fans! - 15 years ago
Skipper, I have been sitting in Section G for the past 4 years and straddle the divide between townies and students. Until you showed up, the same group of students have been standing without any issues from the people behind them. You have no right to yell at the students in the manner that you did and then run to an usher like a petulant child. If you want people to learn respect, you shoby Tom Tone - Hockey

Re: Cornell 2 Yale 2 postgame thread - 17 years ago
From my view above the net in G, the puck was about 3/4 of the way across the line when the red light went on and the crowd reacted so I didn't really hear any whistle. The goal judge seemed to not be sure if the entire puck had crossed because the Yale player had his glove over it when play had stopped. The odd thing about all of it was that later on during a pile up in front of the net, a Yaleby Tom Tone - Hockey
