 Oh, come on... the Clarkson flame-fest is on the How To Be a Good Fan thread.  Take it there   There's plenty of people flaming me for not applying to Cornell and saying I wouldn't have gotten in on that thread.  Have fun with it![/q]

BZZZT!

We didn't say you wouldn't have gotten in, we flamed you for claiming that had you applied, you were assured of admittance.

But thank you for playing!

-shrug- We'll never know, will we?  Back to hockey!

By all means, any Clarkson fan should feel free to post here.  Just be ready to accept some good natured ribbing (and probably a few idiots too, unfortunately).

I'll second the welcome (as if you cared!).  Fan interaction is one of the great aspects of college hockey - keeps it entertaining and in perspective at the same time.  We're not so different as artificial boundaries between "your school" and "my school" suggest...

That said, you've picked a heck of a weekend to make it to Lynah - the crowd will certainly be buzzing.  Question of the week: will any current Clarkson player receive as much abuse as Nickerson did last year?  Follow-up: will any current Clarkson player receive as much abuse as Nickerson will THIS year?

Here's to keeping it intense but good-natured and leaving it all in the rink.

I think Latullipe is a possibility to receive some abuse.  Even the Union fans got on him a good amount for his chippy style.

[daredevilcu]

No single player with receive the treatment Nickerson got last year.  The 5x3 goal that Cornell had after Nickerson took a stupid penalty resulted in it not being Traylen's fault, from the faithful -- Instead they chanted "It's all Nickerson's fault"  This year there's no single player that will be easy to pick on.  If anyone, I would suspect they'd go after Traylen (they'll be on him anyway), Weller, or Latulippe.  

Nickerson's gone, abusing him now is pointless.  He didn't get much abuse when we were in Lynah earlier this year, I don't see any reason for that to increase.

Jay is best when he lets his talent do the talking.  Hopefully it will be that which gets under your skin.  :-D

I was going to say Dodge.  He can really get into it on the ice.

Robb, I agree, go as hard as you like during the game, but leave it it the rink.....You are going to have to do an awful lot of name calling to make my beer taste bad.....and I think nickerson's ears will be ringing wherever he is this weekend.  I figure Scuderi, Latullipe, and Traylen's names may be mentioned this weekend.

Tulip is a flower...

one of the better chears I heard last year during the quarters

[Karlmoose]

I am going to be all over that stupid Latullipe. Some of the Union scratches were sitting behind me this past weekend complaining about how much of a whiner and a dirty player he is; he has become my Nickerson (though he hasn't yet shot a puck at us like Nickerson last year) and I hope that the rest of section B will feel the same. And I love the flower cheer. Friday cannot come quickly enough...

Too bad Jay's "style' gets more attention than his talent.  if he played for cornell, you guys would love him.  Like a lotta guys, ya love him on your team (thoughhe has taken a lot of dumb penalties) and y a hate him when he plays for the other guys.

The Union "scratches"?  That says it all.  :-D

[q]ya love him on your team...and y a hate him when he plays for the other guys.[/q]And that's as it should be!  :-D

Rich, I agree with you...Jay is like a "esa tikaanen/claude lemieux type player....on your team he is great...on the the other team he is a "off with his head" type of player.
