Title: Shame on Wodon!
Post by: FRED\'83 on March 25, 2003, 01:53:44 PM
Shame on Wodon, he doesn't deserve the honor of being the voice of the Big Red.
Does the voice of the Yankees pick the Red Sox to win the pennant, NO!
If, he didn't want to pick the Big Red he could have kept his mouth shut!
Wodon is a disgrace to the Cornell program, men and community.
Please just go away!

On behalf of what I am going to assume is the majority of the eLynah community:  Shut up, Fred.

Oh for the love of God, let it go. a) He's entitled to pick whomever he damn well pleases. b) No offense to Adam, but it just doesn't matter.

Well, yes, but that's not really my style. ::innocent::

dude. you are a jerk. Adam is a great guy. you know squat. keep your mouth shut if you don't have anything of value to say. why jinx your team by selecting them to win it all? i value his opinion (which he already said to put little thought into as he was forced to make selections) more for the mere fact that he tried to be objective and not have his heart could his predictions.

Yeah, I know (and I really like that about this forum, btw)... but I was just hoping that for once this kind of "annoy me at work" crap could disappear.  But there is always the "don't read it" solution. :-)

Well, Mr. Ace and Miss Ace, you're entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine!

But apparently Adam isn't entitled to his?

I don't know if I'm even going to pick Cornell to win it all in my office pool, even though for the first time since I knew what hockey was they actually have a decent shot.  Do you honestly think Adam doesn't believe Cornell is capable of winning it all, and want them to do it?  Let a guy hedge his karmic bets already.

Amen.  I didn't pick Cornell in my brackets either (my supersticious nature that comes with being a Red Sox fan wouldn't let me), but it doesn't mean that I don't want them to win it all.  On the contrary, I'm praying that they do, if for no other reason that so I can stretch my "bodily self-abuse threshhold" even further than I did in Albany...

Would you have preferred he complain and whine in favor of cornell...like Schafer did?

He was on national TV, trying to be objective.

Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one and they usually stink.  

And my opinion is that, you sir, are a flaming jackass.

Adam Wodon is a credit to the college hockey community and we should be thankful to have someone so knowledgable and professional as the voice of the Big Red.

Supersticion is bunk.  For example, if Red Sox fans are so supersticious, why doesn't their team win?

Do I pick Cornell to win? No.
Do I want them to win and will I be pulling for them? Of course.

Two different issues.  Case closed.

Of course he is entitled to a personal opinion.
There in lies the difference.
He represents the university.
It is unprofessional to have this conflict of interest.
Can you make that distinction?
