As a Boston sports fan, I find that pretty offensive, to be honest.

We go out there and bust our humps every day to try to be the most obnoxious fans possible. I know it sounds easy to cheer "Yankees suck" at totally unrelated sports events, or to completely ignore a team until it wins a championship and then pretend we've always loved them -- but it's hard work. And then you come and imply we're not 100% obnoxious, that somehow there's a level of "more obnoxious" we haven't yet discovered?  Well guess what, I think youYankees suck.

It's entirely possible to know that both the Yankees and Boston sports fans suck.  Most of us hold these thoughts simultaneously all the time.

What's scary is that Long Islanders are only seven percent of Cornell, but they feel like soo much more...

See, there is a quota system at Cornell. Otherwise, who knows what the numbers would be.

I saw on the NHL Network scroll that Thiessen signed a 2-year deal with the Penguins. So, his last college hockey memory will be Barlow's goal sliding between his legs.:-D
