October 21, 2011 was darker dorkier day.

Those are some scathing words and it says a lot how much respect the other coaches have for him. Well deserved, too. One would think Yale should have similar advantages to Harvard since they're around a lot of hockey talent, but the past few years have been rough for them

The IJ article says Wisconsin scored the tying goal on a 3-on-1 break with 5 seconds left. If that's accurate, how in the world did we let that happen?

Quote from: BearLoveryou're in the 1% minority among sports fans. It's a commendable minority to be in, but I don't think there's a need to police the rooting interests of the other 99%.

No.  I don't know other Cornellians who are rooting against Robertson because he left.  You are in the tiny minority of Cornell hockey fans*, which is the appropriate comparison here.
man i have booed my share of free agent departures in my day. this one doesn't hit me the way it does bl but i don't think the cornell fan community is a paragon of honor that shan't be besmirched. ON THE OTHER HAND, the repetition of this particular bete noire is exhausting.

Don't feed me this uninformed bullshit about Pelletier.

The most deflating and discouraging game I've ever attended. I don't think I could possibly imagine how horrible it was without having been there. 

I knew Dave Peace and Don Ceci and don't think I had more than a "Tough loss" comment to either of them.

Kinda like being up 9-6 late in a lacrosse game. And 9-8 with the ball in the closing seconds.

Even after the title, I still have to stifle the urge to yell throw it away at the end of quarters.
