Today was the first time I saw Higgsy as the Profiled Player (on the right of page). Reading his bio I found the last line to be somewhat strange. How long ago were these players nominated (rhetorical)?....... also finished second. Thus far this season, Brock has two goals and three assists for five points in the team’s first four games.

Exactly. I look at that number and feel like Andy Dufresne crawling through 500 yards of a foul-smelling, well-known product. There are too many days left to even begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I could stop doing it. As I mentioned before, the reason that I started doing this probably now over a decade ago is because we didn't post nearly as much and the thread often fell back a page or two. As someone who believes in tradition I still do it every year.

BTW, I hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I am not sure.

It does seem like he rarely shows up, but there are a lot of nominees. I noticed that it was old too.

I hear you, especially that Red light in the NCAAs. It has been inactive way too long.

You referring to Puckman, or something else?

The three which come to mind are that, the Holiday tourney, and the band on the stage. I don't know how much he if any he is responsible for the last of those.

Also although I liked the Holiday tourney we did seem to have a lot of trouble getting quality opponents. Perhaps that would be changing now with other conferences having more OOC games.

Seth likes us better in the stands. Apparently we're louder on the ice and the opposing bench.

I'll give them the holiday tourney because it truly was a money loser.

Any chance they could raise the stage so that the band would be above the glass? That would pump up the volume on the ice and bring back the intimidation factor. And the band members would be protected by the netting.

No, the band isn't going anywhere. They are stuck where they are. Drop it.

Yes the results have been staggering! You belong on the stage, above the glass. Period.

No don't drop it. Come sit in Sec 14 and listen to the parents and families complain and move their seats, which there are more and more empty ones every year.

Good point. Even wearing an earpiece isn't enough.
 
Re: RPI Offseason Thread: 7 Months of Drivel

Today is 23 March 2014. There are 195 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 4 October 2014 for the start of next season.

You're a one trick pony. When you don't sound like you're actively rooting against the Engineers, you sound like you're entitled to some specific result.

You, sir, are the worst kind of "fan." At least FlagDUD is just clueless.
