Hard to believe that the seniors could be 0-5 vs. SU given all the program's recent success.

This page at Time Warner Sports seems to indicate the game will be streamed live: http://www.twcs.tv/?CFID=1294353&CFTOKEN=75154801

Check the lower right side of the web page for a link.

Here's another link: http://www.twcs.tv/sportstream/

Can't tell if there's a fee involved, as there is with Syracuse's All-Access webcast.  If using Syracuse's All-Access, your Cornell All-Access log-on should work, but I suspect there's an additional per game fee required.

The Post-Standard's Steven Cannerelli is the guy who I believe did the awesome photo shoot of Cornell basketball and fans last year or the year before. He deserves to be at a better and bigger paper. With newspaper revenues down by almost half in the past decade, the reward for excellence is being able to keep your job.

Dunno.  I was able to log in with my CU ID and password yesterday (both are All-Access), but, of course, the game wasn't on.  I would expect a per-game charge as I'm not a subscriber to the Syracuse events.  Doesn't matter if RedCast will have video, of course.

Since I've always watched on TV, I haven't tried it, but I think you need to be TWCNY cable and roadrunner subscriber to get it. I'll be interested if anyone tries tonight. If it's Redcast, I guess they'd use the TW feed.

Incredible game for Cornell. [edit add:] It feels as if Cornell was very aware of how its fourth quarter lead collapsed vs. Syracuse Memorial Day 2009. No doubts today about whether DeLuca was ready to step in and lead.

The victory made slightly sweeter hearing the Syracuse announcers wimper such as complaining about how unfair, how unnecessary it was for Cornell fans to chant "Overrated." I think their remark was that Syracuse was properly rated and Cornell should be rated just above them.

Assuming Cornell wins out in the RS and Ivy tournament (remember that as of today Princeton is not even guaranteed a spot in the four-team tournament), the NCAA will have to get creative in sticking Cornell with a crappy seeding.

I thought that they tried to be objective despite being obviously Syracuse fans.  They continually praised Cornell's man-to-man defense and Lang.  And they referred to Pannell often as the best player in the country.  While they were down on Syracuse's play today, they mentioned that they felt Syracuse wasn't that great in many close wins earlier this year.  They did say say they thought that if Syracuse had another 30 minutes, the result wouldn't be any different - Cornell was just much better. The color guy said that he votes in the media poll and said he'd have Cornell at #1 next week.

The announcers gave a stab a balance and then, like the Orange on the field, retreated into something less than excellence. By building up Cornell they were saying a great Syracuse team was beaten by a greater team, on this day. They lamented the absence of their best defender, and fair enough, since our broadcast crew in early March mentioned how the absence of Max Feely may have been a difference in the 11-9 (attn Syracuse: two-goal difference, not five) loss to Army. Then at another point they played what-if and said, lookee how Cornell's defense totally shut down the best of the Syracuse attack, and imagine if the best Syracuse defender, John Lade, had played, and since Pannell had half the offense (3G, 3A, missed open net in the final minute - good thing it wasn't a one-goal game at the time) one could reasonably expect it would've been a close game. They clung to that thought as a drowning man to a piece of driftwood.

Makes you realize how dinky little Ithaca still supports a high quality broadcast crew for hockey, lax, and other sports. Our guys tell the Cornell side but you could tune in from Hanover, NH, or Princeton, and still a get a very fair sense of both sides of a game.

Assuming the color guy has a vote and not just a metaphorical "Cornell gets my vote," well, fair enough, but I think Notre Dame really ought to be No. 1 and probably will be. They haven't played just pushovers. I wouldn't mind us at #2 but I'd really prefer us at #2 in the seedings. And for seedings, that loss to Army that has been losing to the likes of Buckness, that's gonna hurt. Say, did I tell you how Max Feely was out and if he wasn't it woulda been a whole different game?

The Sun a while back chose to split coverage of weekend events into Monday and Tuesday coverage. Most dailies choose to run larger sports sections on weekends and Mondays and it's unfortunate the Sun Sports Editor lobbying wiht the Editor-in-Chief / Managing Editor don't also give over more space on Monday. I believe some college editors come to college newspapers out of a belief the paper is a lever to change the world, as opposed to a place to see how your teams performed and do the crossword. To not cover the Syracuse game, arguably the most important sports event this year outside of the women's NCAA hockey title run and the wrestling team at the nationals, was not in the best interest of the readers.

David, I'm sure you know there's a Sun editor / alumni reunion event this Friday at the Cornell Club. For the first time in years, I can't make it. You go, and raise the issue in the round-robin of introductions that Sun den mother Stan Chess '69 calls for. The feedback may be painful but important. You might note there was room for this story, which leads the Sun's web page today: "Parent Support for Cornell Child Care Center Rises."

I, too, was shocked and disappointed in the Sun's lack of coverage.  While I am a strong supporter of all of Cornell's sports teams, bumping a column and eliminating an atsy rowing picture on the back page would have provdided the column inches necessary to accomodate lacrosse coverage on the back page.  And we need "off the grid" -- which I assume serves as Tuesday sports "filler" more than we need timely coverage of the Syracuse lacrosse game?  I don't think the featured 4 baseball players would be upset....

I didn't see the game or hear the call but I have to say... that sounds like a pretty reasonable analysis from the SU broadcast team. Unreasonable analysis is calling Cornell lucky or whining about the refs. Saying that a top 5 team currently kicking your team's ass is "great" hardly seems like a backdoor way of complimenting your own squad. Wondering if your top defenseman would have made a game closer is rational.

My armchair analysis of your own report of the SU crew is that they called a fair game and slanted their coverage towards their expected audience: fans of the Orange.

Edit: One more thing. Fuck yeah, Big Red!
Title: Re: CU-SU Lacrosse Tonight
Post by: tretiak on April 13, 2011, 01:23:33 PM
I agree with bill that they tried and then went back to being homers. Three things that annoyed me:

1.
Quote from: Unreasonable analysis is calling Cornell lucky

To the announcers, Fiore's good saves were due to luck. On the other hand, Galloway was a great goalie making great saves. Just give credit to both goalies.

2.
Quote from: Saying that a top 5 team currently kicking your team's ass is \\"great\\" hardly seems like a backdoor way of complimenting your own squad.

The "I would vote Cornell #1" statement was made while the same announcer was bitching about the overrated chant and how that was unfair to Syracuse. I've never heard an announcer get that bent out of shape over a harmless chant.

3. Several times I had to watch the Cornell players celebrate to realize it was a goal. When Syracuse scored, I thought I was listening to Hawk Harrelson (YESSSSSSSS! SYRACUSE SCORES! AND IT'S 6-2! AMIDON WANTS THAT BALL!)

Really?  If it were nothing, I could at least let it slide thinking that perhaps they couldn't get the story in by the print deadline.  Since they managed to get a small article in, it seems even more egregious not to have a back page story when Cornell's #2 (or is that wrestling now?) signature sport dismantles an undefeated, consensus #1, local and historical rival on its own turf.

Worse IMO is that it doesn't appear to be in any obvious place on the website. Frankly, I'm surprised college-aged people still read the OnDeadTree edition, but for the story not to be in an obvious place on the website is inexcusable.
Title: Overrated Chant
Post by: TimV on April 13, 2011, 06:51:21 PM
Quote from: tretiakLoud overrated chant heard in the Dome.

I really don't like it.  It diminishes the magnitude of our accomplishment and starts a fire in the Cuse players that will burn hotter if we meet in the playoffs.

From The Syracuse.com piece:

QuoteGuadagnolo's late turnover had nothing to do with the outcome other than give a Cornell student section a chance to unload on the home team.

"That's OK," SU attackman JoJo Marasco said. "It's some motivation for us. We needed a loss in the past couple of years to wake us up. We'll see how we respond."

Whether the chant awakens a sleeping giant remains to be seen. This much is certain, though: SU is a wounded giant.


Yeah, I'm an old fart.  Not as old as Al, though.::cuss::
Title: Re: CU-SU Lacrosse Tonight
Post by: billhoward on April 13, 2011, 09:48:46 PM
Tim, players have to expect to hear the "over-rated" chant. What they'll remember is a newspaper clip day-of-game where some player talks cocky or talks trash. I don't see Cornell players doing that. Unless Kevin Garnett just matriculated.

And what else can Syracuse say better than "we needed a loss to wake us up" as if it was all part of the plan.
