      You really should read the first amendment before saying that to someone else. It limits the government's rights to control speech, not the rights of a private communications medium. It is also perfectly within the rights of a citizen to point out that political talk is inappropriate in certain settings. That in no way conflicts with the first amendment.

        When do you guys start burning the books? Look that was a lame joke on my part about Ed's other gig where he writes a conservative piece in the liberal Ragord. Let me say this one more time. Apparently, there is an ignore option on this enterprise we call USCHO fan forum and I suggest that if you're offended by me, you should put me on ignore.

          That's the spirit. Imagine people being able to write what they want.

                    I was looking at the ECAC standings (after my review of the federalist papers) and some teams that I thought would be good aren't in much better shape then we are in (i.e. the Q, Union). I still hopeful for a top 8 finish.

                      That may work, but not Clarkson.

                        Top 8? I am surprised -I have not given up on a bye. This team could do what many of our past teams have not done-actually improve as the season goes on. This freshman offense will score and if the defense can keep playing most games and holding down the scoring to around 2 goals we will not be an easy team to beat for anyone soon. Sure, 2-9 does not scare many people but I suspect that those who look carefully at RPI will not take them lightly. With a healthy freshman contingent we will exert a lot more offensive pressure than we saw at Clarkson and SLU. I want to wait until we see how this team handles Union Tuesday night before I start thinking that they cannot be a top 4 league team.

                          I understand your rights, and I even fought in a war to allow you to continue those freedoms. I just don't want to hear politics on a hockey board.
                          I know my options, I can leave the board, or I can just ignore you.
                          I would rather not do either.
                          But if you insist on bringing your ideolgy to this board, I will leave.
                          Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

                            I would never allow someone to have control over me like that. I hope you stay but I am not going to allow you to censor me... like I wouldn't censor you. Thank you for your service and Happy belated Veteran's Day.

                              hope you're right Doc. I hope this scoring dearth is over. I still believe. I want to see them score more before I talk top 4 but I do believe. You're right Neal will help too.
