HARVARD SUCKS

From Dan Shaughnessy's article about the Harvard-BU game in today's Boston Globe:

Poor Harvard (how many times does one get to type those words?). Folks in The Yard just don't appreciate our local hockey festival. Like the opening of deer season in Minnesota and the Directors Guild Awards in Los Angeles, the Beanpot is one of those events appreciated only by local practitioners of the craft. Boston University, Boston College, and Northeastern identify with college hockey in a way Harvard never will understand. And that is why there were so few Crimson jerseys in the Garden last night and so few folks listening to Alex Biega and friends on "Top Shelf" between periods.

"We're used to it," said Biega. "We don't get much attendance at our games."

Lest it get pushed off the front page during Fish & Fowl Week...

Bump.

It's late afternoon on the second Monday in February and that can only mean one thing-- time for Harvard to play in the Beanpot consolation game. They play underachieving BC at 5 (don't think it's televised but should be on web radio somewhere). The ECAC could really use a Harvard win here.

BU/NU in what should be a good one is on NESN at 8.

Harvard/BC video is purportedly available online at CBS XXL, but BU/NU is not - not sure if NESN is available online or not.

It needed to be said, again and again and again.

Without a Beanpot championship since 1993. Way to go, Sucks.

To be fair, Northeastern hasn't had one since 1988, although since the Crimson's last win, Northeastern leads them in championship game appearances, 5-3.

Not only that, but in the first 27 Beanpots they won their SF exactly once. Their Beanpot incompetence is legendary.
