            That confirms for me that at least two of the posters here are on par with the coaches about the team and that most of the media is playing the role of ignoramuses.

            I like that.

                As I have stated before, pre-season polls are useless, save for lining birdcages or wrapping dead fish. Apparently the voters were on vacation last March when we schooled Dartmouth in their barn and then took SUNY Ithaca to 3 in front of the Vietkong. I sure would like to know where Gaudet and Fat Mike put us on their sheets.

                What do I know..I do look forward to seeing the boys prove them wrong. But then again, I do wear Cherry-colored glasses.

                  Look at it this way, the media was very close to having RPI both 9th or 11th. Given that there were 25 people who were polled and the presumption that the point scale goes 12-1 depending on placement, the fact that Brown got 35 points shows that some folks didn't have the Bears as finishing dead last which means that honor likely went to any part of Quinnipiac, Colgate or RPI to those who voted.

                  Obviously that's their opinion on things and they've got every right to it, but I can say for a fact that I know of two voters that had RPI ranked no lower than 7th which leads me to believe that RPI, likely, had a small handful of folks pencil them in for last.

                  Like you said, not like it matters since it's just a poll but it might be easy to find the folks who voted them really low this year if RPI does what I think they're capable of doing.

                            For anyone who cares,
                            I was able to get the RPI men's hockey web casts from B2 networks for the same $75.00 as last year.
                            That option was not available last week.

                              You're not allowed to say this, it was already mentioned. Ralph will be along shortly to chastise you.
