imo "homer" doesn't mean that you are more excited when the home team scores. it means that you lose objectivity around penalty calls and the relative abilities or moral worth of the teams. in that sense, i think grady and tim are not particularly vocal homers even if they obviously want cornell to do well and their calls reflect that mood.

I'd also say that they do a good job keeping some energy when the other team scores. There are a few broadcasters for other teams that all but drop to a whisper on a Cornell goal.

People on this forum rooted for Quinnipiac to win the national title last season (something Cornell hasn't done in 53 years).  *shrug*

Where? Show me. Here's the thread, it's mainly people making fun of you for continuing to bitterly assert this.

I hated Q winning it because they are an antithesis to what I want out of the league member, and Rand's a fucking prick.

I don't know about that thread, but Trotsky certainly overtly rooted for Q, and so did others. Trotsky can answer for himself here. (He justified it with the theory that it would force Schafer to try to win even harder, lol.) After a quick skim I don't see anybody rooting for or against Q in that thread one way or the other. Not sure why you're point me to this thread.

Because my memory barely lasts three weeks these days, I decided to go back in this forum to see how people "rooted" for that outcome. If it were true, celebrations or at least "atta boys" would have been apparent in that thread more than any other. Like you, I didn't see any. You seem to be still fighting a long-dead fight.

The main agenda Trotsky has here is to lob chaos bombs to ruffle the easily ruffled. I'm never surprised when you're a target.

No.  I always root for the ECAC, because I like the league, and I want it to be strong and attract more talent to help raise our SoS.

Actually, I'm pretty he just wants to be loud and outrageous. I highly doubt he is trying to provoke anybody. The only person who seems ruffled here is you.

I do, too.

And, anyone who gets upset over who I, or anyone else here, roots for needs to get a life.  Desperately.

Go on a Duke basketball forum, tell them you root for UNC, and see how that goes for you. *shrug*

If your aspiration is to behave like Duke fanboys on their forum, well, you're succeeding wildly..

I'm just happy to be here and hope I can help the ballclub. I just want to give it my best shot and, the good Lord willing, things will work out.
