Quote from: blackwidowExactly this. Cornell loyalty >>> very unlikely pro hockey career

Not everyone expects to play in the bigs.  We had a player a few years back whose plan was to play college hockey well enough to play pro hockey in Europe, because it would give him the opportunity to live in another country.

I was joking there with a hint of resentment. just being resentful that he gave up on his cornell career when I shouldn't be.

Great, so now I'm paying for Union's new arena on top of the Bills' new stadium.
If you lead a good life, go to Sunday school and church, and say your prayers every night, when you die, you'll go to LYNAH!

Quote from: Trotsky"Good hair!  No hair!"

I have a recollection, pretty sure it was from the 1985 ECAC Semis at the Gahden.  We'd played in the first game, and Hahvahd and RPI were in the 2nd game.  When the first of those teams skated out on the ice (Hahvahd?) , we started a chant with a point at their coach (Cleary?), "The coach is bald!  The coach is bald".  Then when RPI skated out, we changed it to pointing at their coach (Fridgen?) and saying "The coach is fat!  The coach is fat!". And then we simply went back and forth "Fat - Bald - Fat - Bald".
"What... is your favorite color?"  "Blue. No, yel--auuuuugh!"

Mike Addesa. Fridgen wasn't there until the 90s.

That was the reference I was going for.  The night Cornell fans took over the Gahden and we weren't even playing.

It was the 85 final.  We had lost to RPI in our semi the prior night, then beaten Clarkson in the consy.  But we all hung around and dominated the barn, cheering for Cornell (who was already on their way back home) and razzing both teams.  It was ecstasy.

That was also when RPI had a HUGE traveling fanbase (on their way to the NCAA title) and a band that had an electric bass.
