Title: Coach Schaefer
Post by: shand35 on November 13, 2010, 12:07:26 AM
Anyone have any info on coach's injury during 3rd period?  Sure hope he's okay.

Coach is okay.  Look out for the speling police!

From the online Ithaca Journal:

A third-period collision near the Cornell bench sent winger Vince Mihalek -- perched on the half-wall for an impending line change  -- careening back into the row of the seated players and Schafer, directly behind them. After about 30 seconds, Schafer disappeared down the tunnel to the locker room and did not return.

He said afterward that he was fine, "just a little groggy."

Oh, goody.  Since the spelling police are out, can an enthralling discussion of the difference between careering and careening be far behind?

As verbs there are two distinct meanings:

1. to move expertly along a path
2. to sway, lurch, or lose control at high speed

Career has both meanings.

Careen has only the second meaning.

Brits tend to use "career" for both, while Americans use "career" only as the more familiar noun, use "careen" for meaning 2, and use other words entirely for meaning 1 (e.g., course, navigate).

If you followed the Twitter feed, you'd have known. Some stuff ends up there that doesn't make the ELynah Live thing on this page ;)
