Re: Another PR metric - 14 years ago
CowbellGuy Lauren '06 I totally agree. Who needs coffee and an alarm clock--the best part of waking up is polar bears in F-14s. F-16s actually. Considering I pulled a number out of the air, I'm astonished I was that close.by Lauren '06 - Hockey
Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
Are there really people out there who would adjust their giving based on the success of the football team? (Other than, perhaps, football alumni who matriculate in these hypothetical boom times and had a better time on campus because they weren't deeply demoralized every Saturday?)by Lauren '06 - Other Sports
Re: Latest Cornell football candidates - 14 years ago
Ken711We can't go through another 5-6 years to see if the coach is a failure again. Andy Noel needs to get this hire right this time, and more importantly, the University from the President to the admissions office has to provide the new staff with all the support and resources they require to finally build a championship program in football at Cornell! But do they? Do they really? I understanby Lauren '06 - Other Sports

Re: Cornell 1, SLU 1 (Final) - 14 years ago
Jim HylaAll 4 officials missed a 20-30 second too many men SLU penalty in the first period. All 6 SLU men were in the zone at once, and the CU bench and fans were screaming too many men. To be fair, our team's gotten away with one of those this year as well. Not that I endorse equalize-injustice-style reffing--not at all--but cosmically, it was probably appropriate.by Lauren '06 - Hockey

KeithK Lauren '06 CKinsland Trotsky ugarte It is traditional, after a scrappy third period, for the captains to make out. I understand their reticence. You've found a way to boost attendance at the women's games. ...and make sure people bolt the arena after men's games. CK Oh, not everyone... Maybe not, but I still think the stampede would make for a hazardous situation. Woulby Lauren '06 - Hockey

Re: Sucks - 14 years ago
ugarte Trotsky Give My RegardsAt least rich enough to have attended Hahvahd in the first place... FYP. Seriously, though. No effort, no pressure, and all the prestige in the world for the rest of your days. Many things, most of them unattractive, but none of them "dumb." Hardly a "fix" as it is now easier for most people to attend Harvard than it is for them to attend Cby Lauren '06 - Hockey

Now 5-3 Colgate with two minutes to go. EDIT: RPI loses it 5-3 after taking a penalty with 29 seconds to go.by Lauren '06 - Hockey

That sounds like a pep band, so I'm going to assume game audio is a go.by Lauren '06 - Hockey
Re: Cornell 3 BU 3 (Final) - 14 years ago
The only thing I could determine from the Redcast on that third goal was that the ref behind the net was pointing emphatically at it, so there was no question at least in his mind.by Lauren '06 - Hockey

Re: Harvard at Cornell postgame - 14 years ago
Jordan 04 Beeeej jts15 One of the idiots who threw fish in the second period was two rows in front of me. I tapped him on the shoulder and yelled at him for a bit. Sometimes there's nothing you can do, aside from someone making an announcement specifically to the student sections before the game. This is likely the most realistic way to curb the 2nd and 3rd period fish throwing. It reminds meby Lauren '06 - Hockey

More or less impressive than Colgate's comeback? Either way a thoroughly demoralizing weekend for Harvard, and I feel not a touch of sympathy.by Lauren '06 - Hockey
