I've got no problem with the message of the graphic.  It clearly means no fish should be thrown on the ice for games against OSU.  Works for me.

If one really wants to embarrass J. Andrew and his idiot cronies, why not just bring some fish to toss on the mats at a wrestling match?  However, since the smell would never leave his precious wrestling center, he might blow his next fund raising campaign on another one.

I overheard a little mole telling a little bird that at the coach's lunch Schafer said that after getting hit with all the chewing gum two weeks ago, he doesn't care how much fish is thrown tomorrow.

That would actually be really disgusting. I wouldn't want to wrestle on a mat that just had fish tossed on it. The players don't roll around on the ice scantily clad.

You should read the Ithaca Journal article:

Direct Quote:  "After all, the fish-tossing delays the start of the game and provides a health hazard for the players of both teams."

Based on their attitude in the article, you'd think fans were throwing their own feces or urine.   ::screwy::

People, please.  You do NOT want to get a five-minute major during a wrestling match  ::nut::

I'm going to bring Gene a little gift tomorrow night. Not sure what yet. Can of tuna, bag of gummi fish, whatever. If you know Gene or at least recognize him on sight, you should, too. :-)

[canuck89]

Go with the can!  :-P

This isn't a zero sum game. That the wrestling team does well and has a great facility (albeit still farther removed from campus than Lynah and Bartels) hasn't come at the expense of the hockey team.

During the game.

Personally, I'm thrilled that one of our other nationally-competitive teams got recognized enough by the AD to get their own well-deserved facility.  When I was in town for the Clarkson/SLU weekend, I stopped into the wresting facility and had a look around.  Very neat.

Now if only the AD could care enough about the far-flung Faithful to get on CSTV's case about the streaming situation.  If the game doesn't look beautiful tonight, that means they didn't test it in the two weeks since the last debacle, which means I will be very pissed and they will hear from me come donation time.
