Re: Bag policy - 1 year ago
Again, you can still bring stuff in in the clear bag, and you can fit a good deal in in the 12x12x6 bag. A sweatshirt, a bottle of pills, etc. will all fit in there easily. Phone and keys could too, though I could see your concern about them being easy to steal due to that; I'm a guy so all of that fits in my pockets, but YMMV. They implemented the same policy at Stanford football games 3-4 yeby French Rage - Hockey
Re: Bag policy - 1 year ago
Pretty much any venue in the country has this policy now, so not exactly surprising. Women not being able to bring a purse is definitely inconvenient (based on the sample set of my wife), but the clear bags are usually large enough for all other gameday needs.by French Rage - Hockey

marty Trotsky I've heard it's an even better book (like The Big Short) but I have not partaken. I'm not into stats and thought the book was fascinating and a well told tale. Pretty much anything by Michael Lewis kicks ass. ("Flash Boys" is my personal favorite.)by French Rage - Hockey

Re: Topher Scott - 1 year ago
Yeah if he is the successor to Schafer, I'd like him to have exposure to as many programs as possible in various coaching roles, getting exposed to more methods and strategies, rather than only having ever been in one program (which I realize is not the case with his time at Miami, but you get my point).by French Rage - Hockey

Re: 2022-23 Men's Schedule - 1 year ago
Yes, we need to consider a lot of important things when these decisions are made. As you point out, the economic impact to vendors and others at the game whose livelihood depends on the purchase of food or drink is something we should very much keep in mind as they are heavily impacted. And the presence and effectiveness of masks, and what marginal impact they have on a campus where there is alby French Rage - Hockey

Weder That weekend Is often when Notre Dame plays USC in football. Yup, they're @USC/@Stanford alternating years. And a lot of other CFB programs save their rivalry games for that weekend too, so any school with a P5 CFB team might be distracted. So BU and other HE powers might work. With western schools, that eliminates all of ones large enough to have a major NYC presence (which is a wordyby French Rage - Hockey
