A) Why would non BU people even care? I'm a BU person and I barely care.
B) The comments were directed at Joe? Maybe I should re-read them then because I didn't get that from them at all. Of course, truth be told, I didn't really pay that much attention (see A).
No game thread. Is that due to the dearth of UMass Amherst people on the board to have a conversation with?

I haven't seen Alan or Wardy post in, like, forever. Or winger. There are a couple more but they don't seem to post with any regularity.

If he's not the worst in Hockey East, he's close. They should have given the 2nd assist on the 2nd UMASS goal to him.

Dear Hansen and Shea,
The Terriers are meatheaded enough to take their own stupid penalties. There is no need to invent phantom cross checks and embellishment calls to put UMASS on the PP.
Seriously, that might have been the worst enbellishment call evah. Just get trucked into the glass directly from behind, get called for faking.
The resst of the penalties are admittedly from the chronic stupid that seems to infect some guys on this team.

My thoughts exactly. I wouldn't have attempted that pass...not even in a video game.

How about Trivino's pass across the front of the net (right to a UMass guy) in the overtime?

Yeah...right up the slot. VERY risky. Millan, Nieto, and Gill played very well though.

'The bar is low'? So far, the bar is full.

Along those lines, when I turned on the TV we were down 2-0... so the tie seemed like a victory in some ways. Gotta get the 2 points tomorrow.

Re: BU 2011-2012 Season: The bar is low, boys!
So, after easily one of the worst home losses in the new arenas history, they come out and eek out a tie to UMASS with only 22 shots on goal?????
Seriously??? What's the excuse tonight? Just cut and past Mookie's "top Parker quotes after disappointing games" post. Where's the scotch IV and ludes man???
If they dont come out and win tomorrow ... AND convincingly ... this could get ugly REAL fast.

That says it all when it comes to Jack. Stubborn, unyielding and unwilling to change.
HE KNOWS what people are saying here and HE KNOWS we've been on his case for quite some time.
You are absolutely correct that he will leave when he wants to, but if he drags this out for another 3-4 years and this team plays at this level for another 3-4 years, he will leave a very bad feeling with us oldtimers when it comes to remembering his legacy. At least Ron Mason had MSU competing in a few FFs his last few years, but being compared to Joe Paterno is NOT a good thing. Its pathetic.
How many more times can you go back to that game vs Michigan to remember when Jack had his team ready to win a BIG game??? That was FIFTEEN YEARS AGO.
I don't think my liver can take another 3-4 years of reading Parker quotations about why the team was not ready to play tonight against Providence or UMASS or UML.

5 seconds left in overtime and we have a clear exit of our zone? I think I'll try a drop pass!

So, it sounds as if Charlie Coyle will sit out tonight.
