Too bad nobody who wrote this complaint has the power to do something about it by, I don't know...writing something that is interesting to him/her/others.

Quote from: Jeff Hopkins '82We have plenty of people here in the Lehigh Valley who commute into NYC every day.  In fact, there are regular buses from the Bethlehem Park-and-Ride into Port Authority every day.

Bastards are driving up the housing prices here.
You should see what housing prices are like here.  ::cuss::

He has a respectable point.  Those of us that don't check in every day click on this thread to read about Cornell Men's Lacrosse 2015, not can-you-top-this gripes of traffic/housing expense.  A couple posts?  Sure- some are in fact fun.  Repeated ::deadhorse::- not so much.  

Yeah, I suppose I could just go over to Laxpower, but the "7 new" signal always snags me.  Maybe after the third response or so it should go over to John Spencer's place.:-)

Lacrosse schedule announced. Pretty nice, most of the home games are later in the year, when you hope the weather is better.

I don't mind getting the Syracuse game out of the way, but you have to think that that's about the best way to put the Red in an uncompetitive position going into the game with Ivy practices starting so late compared to other teams.

Going back to 2009, they've opened against either Hobart or Binghamton to start the season, and generally don't play their first ranked team until they have a game or 3 under their belt. Might as well throw them into the deep end I suppose...

Opening at Syracuse? Yikes.  I liked the tradition of a Tuesday night in April.

Much prefer the home games at the end though.  Was it last year their last home game was in March?

Good solid schedule.  I like it.

Two seasons ago, 2013. They served as the "home" team at the Meadowlands vs. Princeton. Last regular season game in Ithaca was 3/30.

Very detailed run-through of the schedule: http://www.laxpower.com/laxnews/news.php?story=41062

Interesting that 1) This is the first regular-season Albany-Cornell game ever, and 2) we have to go to Dallas, TX (SMU) to do it. The only other meeting was the memorable 2007 NCAA QF game in NJ.

Apparently we've played in Texas before, 2008 vs. Denver.

Of note, Cornell has a Dallas native on the roster, but it seems there was an incident while home for the summer: http://www.ithacajournal.com/story/news/crime/2014/09/04/cornell-lacrosse-player-arrested/15091581/

That's a good schedule!  I hoped to see Albany on there, and there they are.  There's no reason it can't be a good upstate rivalry between two strong teams.  Which will be showcased in...Dallas, TX.   ::wtf::

If we get to play them next February at Schoellkopf, it'll be worth it. :-}
