You can take the annual gift you make to the school and direct it towards the Excellence Fund for WNYO or WTOP or both...a little goes a long way.![]()
school loans...... that will allow you to make larger donations later!I've gotten to the point where I've started to consider making a legitimate gift to Oswego..my only problem is I'm still 22K or so in debt from loans. What to do first? Make a donation to Oswego Comm. Studies or Athletics or start trying to make sizable chunks in my repayment of school loans.
Let's get this off the board - send your contact info to laborrelli@gmail.com and I will call you....As I have inadvertently started some conflict here let me clarify a few things. Firstly criticism of a constructive nature does not have to be private, in fact there has been a long history on USCHO of fans posting opinions and critiques of broadcasts in a PUBLIC forum. Secondly, they were terrible, I have one in mind in particular who was absolutely awful but notice how I haven't singled anybody out. Also I understand how tough it is, and that these are kids who are learning as they go. When I went to Oswego I was actually brought in to help consult with WNYO in order to help them improve their hockey broadcasts. That was Mike's Freshman year. He was outstanding and I advocated for him to get more time on the air over upperclassmen who were under-performing. Also yes I know that radio and television broadcasts are a little different, but over the last 6 years I have noticed that WNYO has always had stronger commentators. Now there have been some on both sides who have been exceptionally strong and exceptionally weak. I wont go naming names. The point is, the guys doing the intermission reports for WTOP at the Elmira game were not doing a very good job at all. I think someone else should step in and give it a shot. That doesn't mean that any of those three guys should never get behind the camera again, but I think they need to watch and observe some more because none of them were ready. Everybody deserves a shot if they want it, but sometimes they just aren't ready when they get their shot.
+2 Prez - Norm is spot on - dump expensive debt first...create a plan that allows you to de-lever and start supporting your alma mater...as your capacity to contribute increases, then you can adjust your giving plan accordingly.I hear you, I've whittled my $50K grad school student loans down to about $30K, mine are Federal Direct loans currently carrying a interest rate of <4%. Pay your highest interest debt first, and give what you can, every little bit helps.

Brockport's video camera looks like it needs a day-long tweak-fest. (at the very least, the iris and blacks both need to be opened up). I can't say what their team needs as I can barely tell what's going on (and now the stream has disappeared).
Thanks to WNYO for keeping me 'in the game'!

Is a win 2 points or must you win convincingly in order to feel good about your team?
