Cornell-BU @ MSG postgame

[Jim Hyla]

And finally, so ebilmes doesn't have to say it this week, you just can't take a cross-checking penalty in the offensive zone, paticularly late in the third period.

And to repeat myself, it's OK to take a slashing penalty when you're a man down at the end of the game? After all, that's the one that led to the goal.

Both penalties were stupid. Both came late in the 3rd in a close game. One was in the offensive zone, one was when Cornell was already down a man. Two wrongs don't make a right. ::smashfreak::

Agreed, we just need to be honest and equal in describing our wrongs.

To the Cornell fan reprimanding everyone around him that it is in fact "safety schools", because BU is a university, you are the reason no one likes us.   Die in a fire.

Fixed your post. I will now douse myself with gasoline and light a match.

And it was great to hear them take as many opportunities as they could to play after whistles, while the BU band seemed content to just watch the game.

The BU Band was very large (maybe 70? So that's what it looks like when a university supports their band) and actually pretty good. Also they started most of the BU cheers throughout the game.

I know this because my seats, purchased through the Cornell ticket office as soon as they went on sale, were RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE BU BAND. How on earth does that happen? It wasn't just me - there was a whole stretch of Cornell sections back there.
The fact that we were put there in the first round of ticket allotments tells me either
(a) it was determined ahead of time that those would be Cornell sections (makes no sense), or
(b) somebody screwed up, put Cornell people on the wrong side of the rink, and figured it out too late to fix.

It wasn't the end of the world, just a little bizarre.

The only thing douchier than doing something like that is to brag about it in public afterwards.  Thanks for proving my point, douche.

What does his first post even mean? What is he alluding to? I am confused.

There was a Cornell fan making fun of other Cornell fans that it is technically incorrect to call BU a safety school.  Since they are a university, it should be safety schools.  Seriously.

You haven't been here very long, have you?

I dunno, I've lurked for a while.  I know there are passionate discussions about cheers (e.g. the long DIIIIEEEEE) but confronting another Cornell fan about it at a game is really sad and petty.  If this is what we've become, we DO SUCK.

Also, I'd like to see him say the same thing to the BU fans at Egg-Anus arena.  They would laugh him out of the building and crack his skull open on Comm. Ave., that's for sure.

BUPOLICE have a station house right on the corner of Agganis and Comm Ave, so they'd wait till he got to the Essex before pounding him.

Interesting comment regarding Yale's loss to UVM on ECAC recap. There was a controversial goal, sounding similar to ours.

What seemed to be at issue was either the net being moved at the time the puck went over the goal line or the whistle coming after the goal had been scored. Only the first case can be reviewed. When asked for a statement from the referee, all that was mentioned was the puck crossing the goal line.

Does anyone know the rules?
