Re: change
Change is sometimes good and sometimes bad. For instance, when I'm buying nachos, if I have change in my pocket I can use it instead of breaking another dollar bill. That can be good as I save the bill and get rid of the heavy change. BUT, change is heavy and can be cumbersome to carry. So bills are better. But are they? Bills are so fragile they have a life span of 18-22 months whereas a coin has a life span of about 25 years! Both have their pros and cons.
Sometimes I give my change to the homeless people in the Orange Line tunnels near State. It makes me feel happy to help others.
I think Osorojo's posts are kind of like change. Both are annoying to deal with when around and don't have the short life span some people hoped for but generally are discarded quickly in some way without much thought.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

"Hockey is the only tribe I belong to." --Jack Falla
"Why, as a matter of fact, I suggested starting a hockey program to Father Callahan, our president. He was downright interested until we came to the use of sticks, and then he threw up his hands. He said, 'No, that game is not for our University. Notre Dame will never endorse any game that puts a club in the hands of an Irishman.' " -- Knute Rockne: All American

Originally posted by Osorojo View PostHard to disagree. To his credit Pegula is apparently involved in hockey more for the love of the game than for profit (Sabers?). He is also spending his money in the U.S. rather than investing it offshore or hiding it in banks in Switzerland or the Cayman Isles. Or kvetching.

Re: change
Originally posted by FreshFish View Postyour question pre-supposed that "change" in fact has occurred during the last decade. Although teams' conference affiliations have been re-aligned, that doesn't "change" college hockey; it merely changes how the teams' schedules are organized; college hockey itself seems pretty much the same now as it was it was in 2003, as far as I can tell.
a full 90% of former college hockey fans in the East no longer care about college hockey
