OK, you are right re-pairing, and re-bracketing are more descriptive,
but it is like calling an adjustable wrench, a crescent wrench, (Crescent being a brand name)

Yeah, but crescent describes the shape of an adjustable wrench. Reseeding conveys an inaccurate description :)

Prez,
I always enjoy your posts and just thought I'd ask if you have any concerns at this point about Oswego despite the amazing season they've had? Penalties? Goaltending? A phenomenal season to be sure. Here's hoping they play aggressive, intelligent hockey from here on in, which they're perfectly capable of doing. I think they have a great shot in the SUNYAC tourney & Nationals.

Oooohhh, this guy's good! However, in the interest of both historical accuracy and digressing even further from a hockey thread...

"The Crescent Tool Company of Jamestown, New York was founded by Karl Peterson in 1907. Peterson was an active inventor who had previously been associated with two other tool makers in the Jamestown area, the J.P. Danielson Company and Wm. Hjorth & Company. (See our article on the J.P. Danielson Company for more information.)

Crescent Tool initially produced tools including a type of wrench-plier known as a "lightning wrench", but the company soon became best known as a maker of adjustable wrenches. Crescent's particular adjustable wrench design became very well known, even to the point that all makes of this style came to be called "crescent" wrenches. The actual wrench design did not originate with Crescent, however, and there is some debate as to its origins.

The 1857 patent #17,531 by Edward J. Worcester describes the basic design of a movable jaw sliding in a slot below a fixed jaw, and all modern designs clearly owe a debt to this early patent. The Swedish company BAHCO also claims to have invented the modern style of adjustable wrench, and the BAHCO design may have served as the inspiration for Crescent's design.

According to Crescent company folklore, Karl Peterson received a visitor from Sweden who described an interesting adjustable wrench he had seen in Sweden. Peterson was intrigued and immediately set to work on carving a wooden model based on the visitor's description, and then Peterson and the other Crescent engineers tried to figure out how the wrench could be produced efficiently. Cutting the slot for the sliding jaw proved to be the most difficult operation, and for this task Crescent created a special slotting machine."

Next we will turn to the chicken and egg discussion...

My dad called it a Crescent as do I. Stanley? Don't buy 'em.
 
Re: Oswego State 2009-10 Regular Season Thread

I hope the visiting team gets into town OK so they don't have to postpone the game.

I'll hold my breath - the NWS is only just now upping the outlook status to a possible storm, and any news group impoverished of a decent story is liable to ring Hell's Bells right up to that day where it might fizzle.

Still though, sounds awesome so far - I look forward to a symphony of tone alert weather radios singing storm warnings in a couple days if the hurricane lives.:cool:

After Morrisville tied us at home last year I figured they were on the move. This year they have been playing as a 3-4-5 SUNYAC team. Then late in the year they took both Plattsburgh and Oswego tied into the third period. Be very careful Lakers, the Mo-Tangs are for real.
 
Re: Oswego State 2009-10 Regular Season Thread

The smack talk between my best friend (A MoVille grad in 01) has already begun. He's calling for the Miracle in O-Town. The Mo-Tangs have been playing well, but I think the Lakers still have being tied by them in the back of their mind. Like Cold said, be very careful.

agree.... then disagree......that Sheridan guy is kind of scary b"twn the pipes...I doubt the Lakers will take these guys to lightly, they gave them a pretty good game a few weeks ago, and that goalie can get hot as well...one big thing is they have to stay out of the sin bin.......
