Have someone set up a Slingbox for you?[/quote]

Pay for the b2 webcast?

Brandon Thomas posted on his blog that Cornell-Princeton will be the late game on Friday.  Don't know if that's an assumption based on past practice or if it's been confirmed by Yale's decision.  Could make for a short night for those of us planning to drive to New Haven for Cornell's lacrosse game at Yale...then, let's hope, returning for the LATE game on Saturday.

Should be a great tournament.  Four teams all playing well and with shots at the NCAAs.  Consolation game should have real meaning this time.

I posted this earlier, but it bears repeating.  The ECAC Hockey website reads:

The 48th championship will comprise four games beginning Friday, March 20 and concluding Saturday, March 21.  On Friday, March 20, the No. 4-seeded team will face the No. 1 seed in the first semifinals contest, followed by the No. 3 seed versus the No. 2 seed in the second semifinals game. On Saturday, March 21, the third-place and championship games will be played.  The 2009 ECAC Hockey champion receives an automatic bid to the NCAA Championship.

To add to the confusion, before signing off, Jason said the pre-game show will begin at 3:30 pm on Friday.

I was disappointed that there was no on-ice celebration after the game.  Last time we did it was in '06 after the Clarkson series.  Was this a relatively common practice back in the day?  After the most important win and last home game of the year, would it be too much trouble to let us congratulate our student athletes?  Do they take trips to Albany for granted now?  What the f?

Coach's decision

[CowbellGuy]

Thanks for digging that up, Jordan. It used to be the 1-seed's choice, and they always chose the early game, so a year or two ago, the league just formalized it as indicated, but I was too lazy to look it up.

Still a bit iffy on the start time, though. The tickets say 7:00.

Also, it's harder to rush the ice now since the glass is higher (I remember vividly people jumping in '05) and the RPI players that didn't dress were clustered around the door by section A.

[CowbellGuy]

Since they put the new glass up, and they decide to let students on the ice, they've opened the Zamboni doors. All once that happened anyway...
