Time Warner/Spectrum out of Rochester usually shows reruns of RIT hockey, or the Amerks. I'm not hopeful.by Johnny 5 - Hockey

So, yes...I'm happy for the kid. But, might this scoring explosion lead to the elusive first win tomorrow??by Johnny 5 - Other Sports
Re: Cornell vs Union @ Lake Placid 03/17/17 - 7 years ago
For anyone in the Rochester area.... Supposedly, this game will be broadcast on Spectrum/Time Warner, SNY, Channel 26. Here's hoping. Oh, and Happy St. Patty's Day!!by Johnny 5 - Hockey

God, I wish....... Wedding, reception, excessive drinking vs playoff hockey?! Oh, well. Not my call. "Go Big Red!!"by Johnny 5 - Hockey

Fortunately, the former is still winning games; somehow. However, my nervous system is suffering.by Johnny 5 - Hockey

Swampy Jim Hyla andyw2100 Jim Hyla "Defenseman Den Lodboa, later named a first-team All-American, scored three goals in a span of less than 8 minutes in the third period to power the Big Red to a 6-4 victory." Is Lodboa available to play tonight? We can only wish. Careful what you wish for. He's probably 70 or older. Even at that, I bet he'd put on a better show than whatby Johnny 5 - Hockey

Trotsky Best one yet. Excellent. Again, many thanks! One more chance to support the program. Glad to be able to contribute, even in this small way.by Johnny 5 - Hockey

Thank you, sir! This was the pre-Christmas break movie for my students every year as a reward for their hard work. Many of them can still recite every line. Strangely enough, the drama club is presenting Spamalot this year. Funny never dies? Here's hoping it's a omen!!by Johnny 5 - Hockey

CAS Last year was also a disappointing year for Cornell lacrosse, with a 1-5 Ivy record. Yep. All of a sudden we suck eggs.by Johnny 5 - Other Sports

ugarte scoop85 Johnny 5 Mike being a notable exception, when all a program does is lose, at whose feet is the blame typically placed? Perception is reality?? (God, I hate that expression.) I wonder, has Rob Pannell ever expressed an interest in coaching?! Interesting thought, but great players accross the sports spectrum often turn out to be poor coaches.Also, isn't he still playing?

Re: Cornell lacrosse 2017 - 7 years ago
Very disappointing. The radio call blamed the weather for so many errant passes. But, the weather didn't seem to bother the home team much? And, after touting our recruiting at attack and FOGO, their production was less than stellar for a second week. This could be a very looooong season. But, Army shaded Sorexcuse, so who knows!?by Johnny 5 - Other Sports
Re: RPI @ Cornell 02/24/17 - 7 years ago
I agree. I wouldn't trade all the enjoyment for anything. Same seats for almost 40 years. Except maybe the night the roads iced over during the game and I ended up bouncing off the curbs going down the hill in order to slow the car. Ended up swinging around and going thru The Heights to catch Rt.#13 and a state plow. That was too exciting, even for me.by Johnny 5 - Hockey

redice Jim Hyla Johnny 5 Just as an aside...I remember so many nights driving home when it was an effort to find the side of Route 89 because it was snowing so hard. The only tire tracks were the ones we were leaving. 20 mph, tops. Should I feel guilty for not missing all that excitement?? I mean, I do feel bad about California; really I do. Just depends upon your point of view. Personaby Johnny 5 - Hockey

Re: Union @ Cornell 02/26/17 --> 2/25/17 - 7 years ago
billhoward I believe the Union game is Saturday 2/25 not 2/26. You had me thinking this was another Fri/Sat shuffle to be Sat/Sun. Unlikely Cornell will go after you for a copyright thing. But still, this was in my morning batch of press releases: The Chinese are leaders in image theft – USA ranked three COPYTRACK evaluated 10,000 records for countries with most breach of copyright infrinby Johnny 5 - Hockey

Jeff Hopkins '82 OK, why is the bear speaking Gaelic? Are we playing Notre Dame? Well, it was that or Latin. But, in honor of St. Patty's Day.... One time only. It isn't a game reference, truth be told.by Johnny 5 - Hockey

OK, one crisis avoided, for now? But, Disney called...they want their pig back. Now waiting to see if John Cleese objects to the Clarkson Black Knight? "Blessed are the lawyers, for they shall inherit the Earth." Matthew 5:5 O.K., now back to hockey!?by Johnny 5 - Hockey

Beeeej Johnny 5 Mea culpa. I will be generating a new bear ASAP. Never meant to infringe. All in fun. New bear will not be very huggy, though. Can't do hockey huggy. Dude, it's fair use. You're not selling t-shirts, you're just having fun making cartoons. Don't delete it or start over, I implore you. Thanks, sir. Checking with my attorney. Waiting for disparaging call from Union.by Johnny 5 - Hockey
