I didn't either until I had just about every morning radio talk show in the country e-mailing me to try to get me on as a guest...THAT was an interesting spring break.by Jerseygirl - Hockey
Re: Sun interview with Noel - 20 years ago
Hey Per, it could be worse. You could have been treated like the chick who wrote the article that prompted this discussion: Nothing better than people taking the time to look up your home address online, ponder paying you a visit, assuming that because you're willing to tackle a taboo subject with an open mind there must be something wrong with you, etc. etc. etc. What if after all thatby Jerseygirl - Hockey
Re: [OT] Freshman room assignments - 20 years ago
I ended up bearing witness to a love triangle between my roommate, her boyfriend who lived downstairs, and some dude who was a practice player for the hockey team and would stop by every night so my roommate could "practice" for her Swedish massage class. n.b. this guy shaved his legs and denied doing so, claiming he had some sort of disorder that made his leg hair really short.

Re: Cornell lax player collapses - 20 years ago
I am well aware of the many arguments in favor of autopsy in cases such as this, especially the argument of "if we did an autopsy and determined that this could be prevented by wearing a chest guard, the sport would be made safer for everyone."

Professional Try Out. As the article says, Sam was signed because of injuries. But (and someone -- Avash, Ari...-- correct me if I am wrong) if he's good enough, smart enough, and doggonit people like him, he stays with the Amerks. Basically, he's signed to a prorated AHL contract, so he gets the AHL salary for AHL games in which he plays. That was my understanding, anyway.by Jerseygirl - Hockey

I'm surprised this hasn't been posted yet, but Paolini signed a PTO with Rochester on Tuesday and scored a goal for the Amerks in their 4-2 loss to the St. John's Maple Leafs. It's the lead item in the game writethru on the Amerks webpage. I just think it's pretty damn cool that fully half of those who graduated/left Cornell last year are playing in the AHL at the moment.by Jerseygirl - Hockey

"Countdown with Keith Olbermann" on MSNBC is leading the show with the Moore-Bertuzzi incident tonight. It's on at 8 p.m. EST. Should be a good segment, as Keith's analysis is always sharp.by Jerseygirl - Hockey
