Why buy the elephant when you can get the trunk for free?

I don't know why?

Then perhaps we ought not speak of him.

[Priceless]

Then perhaps we ought not speak of him.

Speak of who?

lame... c'mon put a little effort into your retorts...

Truth hurts? Listen, I'd be embarrassed too if my "established" (and please, loosest sense of the word) Hockey East team had been punked by a first year program.

Of course, there were only maybe 4-5 teams actually worse than Vermont in the country last season, so it's to be expected.

Yeah but that's because you're a pansy.

UVM has has 2-3 terrible seasons in a row now. They lost to PSU. That's a horrendous loss for the program. Does it embarrass me? No. I don't play on the team and I don't coach the team. I have no affiliation with the team other then shelling out an absurd amount of money for season tickets. So no it's not embarrassing, my identity is not defined by the success, or lack thereof, the UVM hockey team enjoys.

That's reserved for the fanboys from BU and BC and the occasional Lowell fan still living in his folks basement...

Remember we also get to see that massive UML Basketball juggernaut this year. The one who had some big wins
last year over the likes of Holy Family etc (by 1 point no less) and lost twice to St Michaels. At least we lost to a D1 school
that people actually have heard of. UML does play Penn State this year too.

I normally stay out of this crap ... but what?

So you're already predicting (or setting up the excuse) that Lowell will beat UVM in basketball in their first DI season? Otherwise, what was the point of that? Penn State had a club hockey team prior to starting up in DI. Lowell's been good/mediocre in DII basketball. If you don't see a difference ...?

No one ... and I mean NO ONE ... expects our basketball team to do well this year. If Lowell wins against an established program, **** right the program and it's fans would crow. And that established program just has to sit their and take it sadly, because ... well they're not supposed to lose to a brand new team. You lost to Penn State (and notice, this is the first time I've ever posted about that) ... but I completely didn't understand what the point of your post was?

It's mostly because all of their posters with the exception of maybe 2 (UMLFan being one) are doochebags. That and they used to get all high and mighty every 4 years when they have 26 seniors on their roster and brag and gloat like they're some super powerhouse and tout their moral victories... like beating UVM in a QF series in 2009 when UVM went to the FF and UML stayed in Lowell and smoked crack.

Now, UMLGoon has been MIA since the last cycle of absurd senior class overload fell through and for the most part the team / expectations/ and being arses in general has come down to a realistic level but the animosity remains.
They still have Patronick but hes just a poser. He's annoying but he tries to hard, not like UMLGoon who was just a dikc naturally.

I expect us to be obliterated frequently... No other expectations there

Re: Hockey East Summer Predictions

the UML/UVM thing is fun. I need to be more of a jerk on these threads. No one has the same enmity towards PC. Even jcarter is just casually speculating that Gillies might have a bad year...
