after watching that its just a little more difficult to hate him (fortunately I can separate my normal feelings from my gametime feelings....so the hatred will be on when I'm @ Bright on 2/24)

Remember, Harvard sucks. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Rz9JOcEN4s&NR)  At least when it comes to making on-line TV shows...  ::yark::

I can't believe you let me watch that.  There's ten minutes of my life I'll never have back.

No, no - he was complaining (and rightly so) about the link *I* posted, not the piece on Du.

I saw the first three minutes.  Pukey face doesn't do it justice.  Thank goodness Flash on Linux sucks balls and gets choppy, cause if the frame rate hadn't crapped out I may have actually sat through the whole thing.  And yeah, I'm referring to the Ivory Tower link, not the piece on Du.  The piece on Du was quite nice.  I never really hated the guy... I just can't wait until he graduates.

Seems like he'd be a strong contender for the "most respected opponent" TBRW award.

I think one of the funnier things at recent Cornell-Harvard games is that whenever Kevin Du is taking a faceoff in front of a CU section of fans, there's always a good number of them who yell "Duuuuuuuuuuuu!"  It's probably less out of respect and more out of the North American fans' primal instinct and genetic urges to just shout the name of any athlete with an "ooooo" sound in their name.  I'll call it "The Lou effect."

Name another opponent ever where the Faithful cheered his name without the word "sucks" being placed somewhere in close proximity.

I was saying Boo-urns.

Well, it's similar in sound to "Boooooo" so I think some people just assume we're booing and join in. It's also easier to pronounce than some other opponents' names.

Excellent.  I'd like to add Brad Zancanaro, but I don't think "Angry Midget" counts as his name.

I was going for the most famous example from my generation, Matt Weder.  :-D

Unfortunately Bellows left for the OHL so there is one less word in the sentence.

You forgot a couple name/words.  "You Offers Swallow Bellow Devine Glass Johnson."

Yeah, good story there from CSTV.

On the 'bright' side, his father's name *is* Lou Du.
