    Agreed. But just to clarify, the other d-man was Ruikka, not Noonan.

        Let me second this. Nice to have a sane conversation between two passionate fan bases. Good luck to you the rest of the season.

          Third. Considering how most of these weekly threads for RPI have been mostly us moving part of our discussion here with little from the opponents, this thread has IMHO added a lot to the game.

            If the trajectory of this team continues, we should have the pleasure of more well considered input form fans like these posters were. I really got quite a bit from their input and it was nice to have it be all about the GAME. You will be a busy man naming threads more frequently...

                Jenny and I have had the pleasure of sitting with the BU section at several NCAA tournament games-they are just as passionate and can be just as loud and rowdy as we are. But they know the game and appreciate a worthy opponent. And the colors blend in well with ours.

                  Quick question, was just reading the Hockey East blog update recapping this weekends games (to get the HE perspective) and noticed that RPI was referred to as "Spell-Check University"...does anyone know the relevance of that? The quip goes on to mention that BU was "sent back to Boston with it's tail between it's legs"...hahaha...priceless.

                    Really? it's tail between it's legs"? The editors on this site don't know that it's its tail between its legs? That's kind of embarrassing.

                      I suspect that they were referring to the difficulty that most people seem to have spelling "Rensselaer". Also it could be referring to RIP instead of RPI. Then again, Scarlet just pointed out that those who live by the sword, die by the sword.

                        ...that was not a direct quote, "it's" versus "its" was my own grammatical error time to brush up on a few things

                          Maybe it's Spell Check University because auto-correct tries to change RPI to RIP.
                          Never waste your money on b2live games. The only thing worse than their product is their service.

                              He's trying to say that after years of covering college hockey, he still hasn't bothered to learn how to spell Rensselaer as though it's some big deal, since anyone who knows anything knows that RPI is not only fine, it's preferable.
                              Keep an open mind. Just don't be so open-minded that your brain falls out.

                                RPI is preferred? Has it always been that way? I thought Rensselaer used to be preferred as early as a few years ago...
