[quote ugarte][quote CornellFan]ITHACA, N.Y. -- One change has been made to the upcoming 2007-08 Cornell men's hockey schedule in order to accomodate a national television audience. Cornell will take on Clarkson at 4 p.m. on Sunday, January 20, 2008, at Lynah Rink in a contest that will be televised by ESPNU.

The game against Clarkson was originally scheduled to be played at 7 p.m. on Saturday, January 19, 2008, but has been moved with the approval of both schools. Cornell will still play St. Lawrence on Friday, January 18, with an off-day in between the games against the North Country foes.

Additional television arrangements for the upcoming season will be announced as the season gets nearer, but none should require dates of the games to be changed.[/quote]
That's a first - cornell hockey content in the "other sports" forum. This is good news - now all I have to do is find a bar in my neighborhood with ESPNU.[/quote]

Could always just join us at Ship of Fools.

Of course when I say "us" I mean "them," since I hope to be at the game.  But if I'm not, I'm sure SOF would love to have us.

If you show up in a sports bar and ask for ESPNU, it helps to tell the barkeep what channel it's on on DirecTV or Dish or whatever. They know where ESPN is for sure, but not always the tertiary satellite channels.

ummm.... isn't that NFC/AFC Championship game weekend?  while bars (at least in DC) have been willing to accomodate us during NCAA hoops play.... I think bumping NFL could be completely another story....

Then it'll probably be OK in New York, since that's beyond the first weekend of playoffs and thus the Giants will be out. :-D

Well, on the plus side, the NFL will be on network television, so you'd only need to commandeer a TV, not a satellite tuner.

I think they call it the Super Bowl these days.
