Re: Informal Poll: Dumbest Play - 19 years ago
After witnessing live the stupidest play ever made in college hockey (blueliner Jason Dailey passing through the slot in the Cornell zone directly to an opposing player who subsequently scored), I find it hard to grant the Stupid Award(TM) to anything that isn't close to that level of idiocy.

Hey, I lost out the last time they were announced, which was back in late 2003. I wasn't going to make the same mistake this time. So, color me panicked. Kyle (long a member of the red army, soon to be a member of the white army... or something)by Kyle Rose - Hockey
Re: I tried... - 19 years ago
Look, I agree: it's stupid. You are a great promoter of Cornell hockey who puts many hours into something you love without them having to pay you for the effort. But bitching about their attitude isn't going to make them any more likely to give you a pass. That's all I'm sayin'. Think more constructively.by Kyle Rose - Hockey
Re: I tried... - 19 years ago
I can certainly entertain the possibility that you might have engendered bad enough feelings in the athletics office that you have obtained for yourself a permanent place on the CU athletics blacklist. It would not be the first time you've reacted very undiplomatically and unprofessionally to a situation you didn't like. The first step to getting out of a hole is to stop digging.by Kyle Rose - Hockey

Re: AM Antenna for WHCU - 19 years ago
My father uses the non-powered SelectAntenna to get WFAN from Lake George, NY. Not terribly impressive since WFAN broadcasts on a 50KW clear channel, but it goes from barely audible to, well... as good as AM gets. Cheers, Kyleby Kyle Rose - Hockey

Bill, I am very disappointed that IBM is considering selling its PC arm for the very reason you describe. I am now on my second Thinkpad (a 240, now a T40) and both of them have been rock-solid. I have used laptops from many vendors, and IBM's are the best built laptops I've ever encountered.

Re: i2 sports or XMI whatever problems? - 19 years ago
Agreed, Mike. Pretty pathetic. As a slight aside, college students are conditioned to take what they can get even if they are anally raped for it. Those of us in the real world recognize value and refuse to be taken without some reasonable expectation of improvement.

At least some of us are having buffering problems, where we get good feed for a period, followed by some period of no feed, back and forth. It's really annoying, especially considering I'm paying for this. Kyleby Kyle Rose - Hockey
