Today is 11 August 2010. There are 58 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 8 October for the start of next season.

Rumor has it, it's actually possible to take pictures inside now without the need for a flash or the overhead lights on. But hey, I guess that's what nice big front windows can do for the place. :cool:

Thanks JC, is it me or do the seats look brighter? probably just the lighting however....and wasnt there a rumor of a possible new scoreboard?..... not that the one we have is too shabby. I personally like the new windows.

And the scoreboard is in a location where you can see it from everywhere. Cool! ;)

I'm starting to really regret not posting until now about the Golf Outing until now. Pages and pages of hyperventilating into a paper bag about BP. I also noticed Brandon was missing from the festivities last night. JFK decided to sit with the First Church for dinner, so I asked him where he was. Apparently, there was a wedding on his mom's side (forget the exact relationship, but I do remember "wedding" and "Mom") that he was attending.

I found out about Jerry through a fellow parishioner who met us for the dinner portion. While it put a little damper on the evening for us, the team is very upbeat about this year, and they all looked to be in good shape.

We asked Coach about Black Saturday, and I have to say it made me laugh. This year was Union's choice of which game should be Friday for the home/home series. He figures they picked Friday and thought "Hey this way we get out of playing them on Black Friday." Appert then said "Screw them, we'll make it Black Saturday."

Thanks for the news about BP. I can stop with my medications now. :D

Good to know. You must admit that the obligatory Adios D'Amigo thing was somewhat amusing though :rolleyes:

I was thinking about "RPI 2010 Off-Season Thread VI: Adios D'Amigo," but it would probably earn me a facepalm or three. :D

It's seems as though the frenzy is sooo off the hook that we'd all read a bathroom wall if it seemed to have new JDA info...so I'm personally grateful to have you discern what's legit and what's not...:)

RB, NOOOOO! We must RUN from that reference...all I've got in my head now is a reference to the 'Three Amigos' and I DO NOT want that to cross reference WS's tags: "All 5...err...4...uhhhh 3 of us are returning"...let's just wish JDA well and not jinx anything...after all, someone might be reading what you write:eek: :p

We were talking about "The Three Amigos" when we thought that Laliberte would arrive with D'Amigo and Pirri.

I am not exactly sure what you mean, but Pirri and D'Amigo do appear to have been friends. It's Laliberte who has been the one who has been on the outside in several ways.

Someone suggested that Laliberte could come this Fall if D'Amigo leaves for the pros. Considering everything else that has happened, it wouldn't entirely surprise me.

Of course they are, I believe at the time it was a play on words given one of the players' last name contains "Amigo".

Seems to be all but a done deal. I do find it frustrating that going Major Junior appears to be one of the options (at least in the Leafs thinking -- not D'Amigo's from what I've read) on the table. Do they want Jerry to light it up against 16 year olds in the OHL -- make him a goal scoring machine in their future plans? Strikes me as a weak (step backwards) reason to leave the NCAA.

I understand Leblanc leaving to get an 'in' with the World Junior Team that is so pro-Major Junior in Canada -- but D'Amigo doesn't have to worry about that. I bet you he ends up in the AHL.....

I agree that the Marlies are his most likely destination this year, but until he actually signs, there is hope he will be back in Troy, :)
