On Wednesdays I typically think "cool, only 3 more days to hockey."  This morning I caught myself thinking, "shit, only 3 more days to hockey."  That weekend left a mark.

There are discounted subscriptions for students and academics. Sometimes if you have a dot-edu email address, you can get it. Other cases, if you're a student when you sign up and maintain the email address past your period of study, you can  maintain the subscription.

Apropos of the NYT, the daily newsstand price is $4 as of this month.

$120 a month to have your conscience assuaged for paying low taxes while people starve seems like an excellent deal.

I'm paying $1 per week for the full ee-subscription

My conscience is bought cheap

Yes that was a painful weekend. Listened to the Saturday game on a flight from the west coast. Flying is so much fun.  

Going to the Whale on Saturday with a sense of dread. At least the pizza will be good.

As long as Ken Dryden's name came up —

I recently started reading The 100 Most Notable Cornellians.  It includes many highlights of his career through publication in 2003, but surprisingly omits his backstopping our 1970 undefeated team.  

Unfortunately, the book only includes undergraduates who eventually got degrees, so excludes, for example, graduate degree holders Toni Morrison and Pearl S. Buck, and undergrads who never received a degree, like Kurt Vonnegut, Michael Schwerner (murdered in Mississippi) and Harry Chapin.

I'm bummed but it wasn't a disaster. We weren't our sharpest and still clearly outplayed both teams. And while neither Clarkson nor SLU are fantastic, they're two of the decent-er ECAC teams.

We were bound to drop some games we should have won eventually.

Or maybe I should say it was a disaster, but it doesn't mean we're doomed going forward.

Looks like a fun read.  That Dryden fact was omitted because he did not play on the the undefeated team.  He graduated in 69 with a pretty decent 76-4-1 record.  Not too shabby.

If the sports betting industry could take bets on how long it would take for someone on this msg board to show they didn't get a joke, we could endow Lynah Rink by now. ;-)

Rich, thank you.  I forgot to use the sardonic font in my post.

I was at Lake Placid in '70, so even at my advanced age, I remember Brian Cropper was the goalie for our undefeated team.  I was in grad school for Dryden's entire tenure at Cornell and was at the Syracuse War Memorial Auditorium in '67.  BTW, I also saw Dryden skate as a forward in one of his freshman games, against a Junior B team I think. Ned, or rather Pop Harkness, was having some fun.

Fullan, the same season.

Larry Fullan played 4 games for the Washington Capitals during the 1974-75 season.

Brian McCutcheon played 17 games for the Detroit Red Wings that same season.

Not sure which one got there first.

Thanks, another thing to fix.

Mccutcheon was first of the two - he was playing in November.  Fullan didn't play his few games until much later in the season for the Caps.
