[LaJollaRed]

Anyone else irked by the pop-up ads on www.cornellbigred.com  ? It makes the site unreadable

Shameful. Other sites that are understaffed and underfunded manage better than Cornell does. But none of them has eLynah.

Yeah, because this site is SOOO well maintained ::rolleyes::

Tell me-is Matt Moulson still the leading scorer or David McKee the top goalie?

Well, nobody's beaten them yet this season. :-P

Yep.  Just another devolution from the bold step down discussed here (ignore the automobile thread-drift):

Free equals don't complain, ass.[/quote]What kind of America are you living in? Free means complain as much as you want. (OTOH, "no charge" means don't expect much in the way of prompt, polite customer service.)

I ask myself that question more and more.

Free means complain as much as you want. (OTOH, "no charge" means don't expect much in the way of prompt, polite customer service.)

Well, let me amend that.  Free equals your complaint will be ignored.  In the case of All-Access, a paid subscription equals your complaint will be ignored.

I've mentioned this before. I find it a disgrace to Cornell that they can't have an Athletics site that's not ridden with ads.

Really, for me, its beyond shameful and so incredibly pathetic that its hard for me to believe its the same Cornell I went to 6 years ago.

(Aside: I love Cornell.  I just think the folks that run it are often cheap and pathetic.)

So you're reading their website and it's not costing you a dime to do so. They could always add that under "no-Access" and make you pay for it. Under that pretense, I'm all for pop-ups.

Also, while we're not actually paying for the Cornell website, I think of it as being included in the whole Cornell experience -- and that we paid up the ass for.
