Quote from: RitaWell as long as nits are being picked and words parsed, any chance of the game being held in Buffalo? That is still in New York, correct?
I know that you're joking but what if upstate isn't totally ridiculous? Maybe the game will be in Ithaca as part of a 2 for 1 or something. "Intentionally ambiguous" is an intriguing phrase.
You know, we have a perfectly serviceable AHL arena in Rochester, which is a direct flight from DTW.  Yes, I know, Syracuse is closer to Ithaca, but our rink doesn't suck.  And our Dinosaur BBQ within stumbling distance of our arena (which neither Syracuse nor NYC can say).

I hear Red ate Cheerios for breakfast this morning.  Could that be a hint as to where the game is?!?!?!1/!?1!?

I was beaten to the Blue Cross Arena and First Niagara Center plugs.

Very good point about the Dinosaur BBQ. Right down the street.

Our Dinosaur BBQ is within stumbling distance of the 1 train, which for all intents and purposes makes it within stumbling distance of MSG.  And no designated drivers required for getting home afterward.

I'm with Ben.  Sometimes the tangents on these threads can be annoying.  So I stop reading them and hope I don't miss something important.

Quote from: Kyle RoseYes, I have no doubt that you, as a New Yorker, would think so. That's why I'm not really that interested in what you think about what the term "New York" means in what someone not from New York says.
Beeeej isn't a New Yorker.  He moved to Brooklyn.
Bring back the -1!  ::flipd::

Quote from: BenWhen I saw 19 unread comments in this thread, I assumed that Michigan or CU had announced the event and y'all were talking about it. Instead, you were comparing the distance from The Centre of the Universe to two mediocre airports. Thanks, guys.
In fairness, mediocre airports are all we have around here.

We're not Rochester, which Rochester cannot say.

Quote from: Jeff Hopkins '82For the record, Philadelphia has no claim to Camden.  ::moon::
Which is why East Philadelphia is the Delaware River. Still, and saying this as someone from the western suburbs, Cherry Hill is more Philadelphia than most of the Main Line.

Yeah, I almost tried to claim Cherry Hill, but I just thought about the roads between the Ben Franklin and there and shuddered.

But this thread is more Jodi Picoult.::barf::

Well, I don't need a DD since it's 1/2 mile from my house. ::cheer:: I guess it would be impractical to have the entire Lynah Faithful stay in my guest room, though.

Oh God.  Please don't have the game in Trenton.

So, to summarize:

New Yorkers are asshats.

We're playing Michigan somewhere.

Harvard sucks.
