Now, it doesn't hurt, and if it helps Cornell sneak up on somebody, fine and dandy.Nobody sneaks up on anybody in the NCAAs.

Re: Things Really Heating Up (NHL) - 19 years ago
"Linkage" refers to a variation of what the NBA cap looks like: the cap for a given year is x% of revenues from the prior year. Since the NHL (unlike the NBA) has refused to open its books (and non-NBA leagues are NEVER honest about their books), the NHLPA has told them to link that plan to their own asses.by ugarte - Hockey
