Your point??!  As someone who lives in Ithaca today, the summers are glorious!

RIT has a campus in Dubrovnik, Croatia (where Age can spend the 50 kuna he won for designing the Fighting Deerticks logo), although I've never been:

Interesting that you picked the west-coast campus that rivals Cornell in its macabre obsession with its natural terrain (Cornell's gorges vs. UCSB's bluffs). Do the people who post pics of UCSB actually go to the beach in IV?

So, St. Cloud and UMass Lowell get the Hobey and Coach awards, while Yale and Q play for the championship.

Definitely rooting for Yale tonight. QU is too new to the scene and I like the idea of Yale beating 3 #1 seeds to take the title. Squash any nonsense about an ECAC team raising the trophy after an easy path.

Sorry, BearLover.

I knew I'd have a hard time of deciding. In the end, you can't choose who your heart roots for.  I admit that I found myself rooting for Canisius to knock off QU in the 1st round.  The way I phrased it to myself (and others): "Which arena would be least distasteful to see a 'National Champions' banner hanging the next time you walked through the doors?"  For me, the answer is Yale. As soon as they hoisted an ECAC banner, I saw that they did a respectful job. They are the oldest existing collegiate program, with a grand collegiate arena. And it would be an extra knife-twist to Harvard. I'm OK with either winning, but I find myself pulling for Yale.  Allain won't be there forever.

And you'd root for the old line country club Yankees over Rodney in Caddyshack? "I think this place is restricted, Wang, so don't tell them you're Jewish. Okay?"

Unfortunately, you can't see the gorgeous view of our campus from our campus. Score a big one for IC's tower dorms though.

Likely I'll be rooting for Yale once the game starts; right now in theory I have no preference.

I'm for three quick outs for Texas A&M.

You know... I thought I'd be rooting for Yale, but suddenly I think I am pulling for Q.  Maybe.  I guess.

Man, I hate Connecticut.

Shockingly disagreeing with Rich, I am pulling for Q.  I hate Allain that much.

The announcers keep ignoring the two -ECAC teams in final game part and repeating, "... two schools separated by 8 miles." Just once they could add "... and 300 SAT points."
