I just saw the game will be on NESN for those of you in New England.

I wish the article state what put Cornell over the edge.

Cornell and Ithaca are among the colleges and towns featured in this article describing how college towns may be drastically affected for many years to come.

Let's hope they can keep rolling and not have a hiccup like Clarkson did last week.

Does anyone know what section we are in?  I was already thinking about getting tickets to bring my girls to their first Cornell game.  With the results tonight, it is a must now.

Bill Lazor is getting much credit on Monday Night Football.  His Bengals offense leads the 9-2 Stealers 17-3 at halftime.  The announcers have mentioned Cornell, coach Hofher, and the Ivy league in complimenting Lazor.

Just realized a little irony I hadn't noticed before-  Riley Nash is on the same line as Dominic Moore for the Bruins.

I haven't been to Lynah in a few years, but I will be in the area and can go to the RPI game.  I don't see anything in the ticket exchange.  Have there been tickets available at the window lately?

Thanks, Chris

I will be relatively near Hamilton Tuesday and hope to get to the game.  Does anyone know the best section to get a seat?

Check out Scrivens' stats on ESPN as of Dec. 9th.  Number 2 in GAA at 1.56 and number 1 in SVPCT at 0.943.  Let's hope he continues to keep this up and still gets some good opportunities when Quick comes back.

I thought this was interesting.  It gives some pretty good general rules as well as input from players of various sports as to what actually gets in their head.

We will probably agree with most of these; but, based on the lengthy "Notice to Ticket Holders" thread, there will be some discussion about Rule #4.

Here is a link on SI.com to some notable Conn Smythe winners.  Two Cornellians are on the list of 20 total.  I would be curious to know how many other college players made the list, let alone more than one from the same college.

Gee, I wonder if anyone can guess which two Cornellians made it. :-)

I'll be at both games with a few friends.  Clarkson is on a break, so I don't know how full the student section will be to challenge us.

Is our band making the trip?

Nevermind original post.  Just turned on the TV and didn't immediately realize I was watching Monday's game.  Now I know why there was no thread already started.::doh::

I just found this on SI.com while reading about this past weekend's games.

Quote of the Week IV

"The intent of the flex schedule was to make sure that, in the second half of the season, the primetime network package didn't get stuck with a bad game. It was never intended to cherry-pick the best game on Sunday and move it to prime time ... I think the Patriots versus Cornell would probably be a game [NBC] would put in prime time right now.''

-- CBS Sports and CBS News president Sean McManus, at the Fantasy Sports Association Sports Media and Technology Conference last week.

Here is a link to a story about an Ohio high school pulling a prank similar to Yale's with Harvard.  Unfortunately, the kids' own school administration came down pretty hard on them.  I really don't see why pulling a prank that ownly hurts an opposing school's ego should be that punishable, if even worth punishment at all.

A Swiss friend of mine sent me this link.  Some of these you probably have seen, but I think most of them are new.  I pasted his Swiss-German note, even though I only partially understand it.

Middle of the 2nd right now being broadcast by Rogers Sportsnet.  I'm watching on NESN.

Supposedly Planet USA was up 2-0, but in the few minutes I have been watching, Canada scored twice against some pretty weak defense to take a 4-2 lead.

COL-   0:46   2nd  Burton         Bogdanich,Winchester
COR-   10:54  2nd  Carefoot (7)   Nash (,Seminoff (14)
COR-   13.58  3rd  Milo (2)       Glover (1),Scott (16)

Alright.  Now that it is intermission and I won't miss any of the game, I will go ahead and start this since no one else has.

I am bringing a friend or two up to the games in Clarkson and St. Lawrence next weekend.  I was just wondering if any of you were going to be there, and if so, if you had any plans for after either of the games.
