And why were there TV timeouts when the game was being broadcast by RPItv and they did not have commercials?

NCAA rules required it now...  We're stuck with it!

I prefer it.  Along with the 19th man it's giving the players more rest and potentially cutting down on the injuries that accompany tired play.  Better for everybody.

It slows the game down, which is worse for the fans. I think teams just end up double-shifting their top lines more.

Are there any data about that?

It's possibly true that the NCAA is requiring this but also possible that it is an ECAC edict to follow the directive that Arthur posted for us.

The non-league game at the TU center last Tuesday had the post 10 minute "shovel" time outs but did not have the other 2 TOs per period.

I agree with this but also think there's merit to regular season games having the same flow as postseason.  It was always jarring when you got to tv games and the pace was different and depth mattered less.

Since you posted the same lame joke on two threads now, I'm echoing Trotsky's edict to stop the political BS here, and I will point out that RPI.TV still puts out a superior product on a more accessible platform that actually IS free for all.

Up until this season, Clarkson, SLU, and Dartmouth all offered capable, free video streaming of their home games. And Cornell games early on were available for free thanks to the work of those responsible for this very site, until the Athletics administration decided to pull the plug and bring in pay services that led to several remote and flawed companies getting the job and an avalanche of complaints on this forum.  All things considered, I'm increasingly impressed with what RPI has built for their niche community of students, alumni, and fans.

Yessir!  Sorry Sir!  Got it!  It won't happen again!

Echo anything you want, but compared to all the political jokes on all sides that was pretty mild, even for the perpetually sanctimonious.    Next time PM me with your opinion - unless public callouts are your thing.  ::moon::

This is a really good question.  If TOI is being tracked for college games then we could actually study it.
