Both have much better records than Cornell (14-4 and 14-6 vs. 11-9) and I suspect that's the determining factor.I probably should have looked that up myself... Thanks Al.by ugarte - Hockey
Re: Schafer a candidate for Notre Dame vacancy? - 19 years ago

Re: [OT] VoIP experiences anyone? - 19 years ago
CowbellGuy Wrote: I'm not sure I believe that, for the same reason that the only reliable data TiVo can generate is from season passes and, to a lesser extent, user ratings. It probably does more data mining than you realize, though it claims that it uploads all information anonymously.

Re: Most exciting play in baseball? - 19 years ago

Watching a guy trot is much less interesting than watching a guy run and try to beat a throw.Watching the trot is boring, but you are missing the fun of gasping when the ball explodes off the bat and disappears into the night on the real monster shots and the will it/won't it tension of the onesby ugarte - Hockey

I posted this on USCHO and I feel like a lunatic for putting it here as well, but I think among friends (cue easy joke) I am more likely to get someone to actually check this for me. I think Denver's 3d goal was credited to Statsny when it shouldn't have been. (I'm not talking about Statsny's first goal, where he got credit for a deflection.)
