ECAC picks Grady

[melissa]

yeah. however there is a difference between failing to recognize the number on the back of a goalie's jersey ( when you aren't facing their back) and failing to notice a number light up on the scoreboard at center ice ( or at the very least the sound of disappointment from a large crowd)

[RichS]

I'm not picking on Grady here...

But the difference in goalies is a lot more than the numbers on a uniform.  Different masks, heights, style of play...etc.

Trust me...I was never confused for any of my goalie teammates! :-D

[melissa]

yeah i know. it was just conveniently eliminated.   ::yark::

[Beeeej]

I take it they were quieter?  :-))

This thread is quite funny, but there is little hope that some Cornell fans will admit that there is anything about their school that isn't perfect. That's life. Hopefully, RPI will have a chance to show it on the ice, just like Dougie Hearns was able to do on 12/4/68, and the whole RPI team did two years later. (I better not mention RPI's two contributions to Cornell's undefeated season. ;-) )

Rich, thanks for your support. I may have to root for CCT if RPI doesn't beat DC and CU.

Our football field has artificial turf.  That's not cool.

And Ithaca is cold and windy in the winter...

and campus is huge, making it very hard to get from the Vet school to baker lab in time for you next class...

and Morrison smells like shit...

and all the campus buildings are way over heated...

and all the hot chicks at Cornell have boyfriends...

and there isn't enough parking in C-town...

and Ruloff's sucks under new management...

and....

[Josh '99]

And I hear there are hills, too.

[ursusminor]

Thanks John*2 and Josh. Is Morrison a person or a building? ::rolleyes::
All great colleges are built on hills. They get harder to climb when you become an alum as I found out again last December.

[tml5]

Not only is it cold and windy in winter, but winter is pretty freakin long, too.

And not *all* great schools are built on hills.  From what I understand Ann Arbor is pretty much flat.  I've never been there, and I'm going on the word of a Cornell alum, so maybe it's just flat compared to Cornell.

[Al DeFlorio]

Flat Ann Arbor is.  Stanford, too.  And Urbana-Champaign.  Great universities all.

[RichS]

Yes, actually, they were...but that's not a good thing.  A goalie has to take charge, much like a baseball catcher, since he has most of the game in front of him.

Shouting encouragement and directions to your D men especially is the norm...and some of the D men I played with needed a lot of both of those!

We wont discuss my GAA...those records were sealed long ago !! :-D

At one edge of Stanford's campus you could probably stand on two tuna cans and see the far edge on campus.

Morrison is the Animal Science building.
