The cost of the equipment to do this is next to nothing.. Cornell loses a lot of money running this project but the cost to provide better hockey feeds is just not a priority..

Does anyone really know how many subscribers there are.  Last I knew cornell would have to triple/quadruple the cost to come close to breaking even.   It would make sense to create a model that at least rewarded the sports that are really being watched with better feeds..

nope.. but he didnt apply the rule correctly.. he blew the whistle after the puck crossed the line,.  however they tried to use the cornell replay and no way the camera showed the puck was in when the tv replay did.

not yet but the design isnt done who knows. doesnt even really mean no parking lot as they added back parking when Martha van was rebuilt. in a year when they actually start building things will become clear.

when hoy field goes maybe we get back lots of parking right next to the garage..

the bigger issues is a coach who has never competed in a conf with talent nor ever recruited for it.. this is a big reach for BC

cornell had issues with bigger things than money in keeping the coach here.. and I dont think the million number is  close to correct either..  why give skinner over 2 million a yr and then give the replacement so little?

CC was offering over 2 million  last week have to think BC is in the same range.. perhaps incentive driven with 1 million base?

the main problem was that the replay booth didnt overrule the goal either. the ref did it on his own.. never should have happened.

The study only counted kids who stayed and didnt graduate.. quiting/leaving/transferring dont count.. can you really stay for 4-6 years andf not graduate unless the school isnt trying or you probably shouldnt have been admitted.

Did Cornell play man vs SU?  kent is more athletic a guard than SU but not anywhere else, the key is taking good shots and limit TO's, limit those and you slow down Kentucky.  Since when has Kentucky shown they really want to play D on a team that moves the ball around.. teams in the SEC dont really work the ball that well.

and they act like Dale is a slow plodding guard as well..

You mean like Favre does with fball or Clemens did with baseball or Jordan did with fball or Lemiux did with Hockey?

the best ones can walk away and get back up to speed because they are the best.. the rest of us not so much.

for me Golf is wierd my best rounds are almost always my first and last of the year and in between the constant struggle to shoot par.
