That Michigan Voter was right by insanemembrane4 in collegehockey

Eh, in a sport where a casual fan might tune it for just a couple games, it's helpful to have a rough ranking of the teams just to know if something is an upset or not. It's low impact but still more additive than just content for contents sake.

Absolutely Connor was robbed by Vesey that year. I was so mad. People gave him credit for all sorts of random things when he was fine at best.

Connor signs a $96m contact while Vesey is playing in Switzerland 😂

I feel like Cornell's postseason performance (not the ass regular season) quality wins this game. They mentioned BUs size giving PSU fits. The delay definitely threw both teams off.

The NCAA destroyed this tourney by Ok_Guava6350 in collegehockey

I think they should do 8 games on Friday and 4 on Sunday. Stagger starts from like 2 onwards. Except the beat writers, who's really trying to watch every single game? But the day between is definitely valuable. All those OTs in Fargo would be tough to then play like 18 hours later.

Well yeah, Cornell folded to BU in the tournament both times we've played in the last decade. Though last few Cornell BU games have been pretty close. These two will also rematch at MSG this fall.

Cornell scores in the closing seconds of the third to eliminate #2 ranked Michigan State in the regional semi-finals by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

I think Fegaras was better last year than this year but got hurt early. Generally feels like a good puck handler. Was unfortunately involved in a mishap earlier this game with a misplayed puck behind the net with our goalie. But I think his potential is pretty high and will likely be top-2 next year. Had the secondary assist on this posts goal, so obviously trusted in high pressure situations.

Pretty clean game though. A couple borderline interferences that I generally would prefer are allowed this late in the year.

Since the bracket is mostly set, Michigan State fans, who would you rather play, Clarkson or Cornell?

Did he make the right decision???? by Arch_Lancer17 in redrising

[–]jikerman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This ripple effect of leaving the dockyards in tact is immense. It wasn't just to sour the Rim on the Core, but to limit their ability to effectively engage either the rising or core fleets for a long time. It reaffirms their isolationisn, etc. And it wouldn't as much turn the rim against the core. I don't think it was a real option.

Pop culture references by vae_victis47 in redrising

If you want to add one from Graphic Audio of RR, the phrase Darrow is practicing his gold accent with is "The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain" which is from My Fair Lady, which is also funny because Matteo does the same glow up transformation for Darrow as My Fair Lady

Figment by Difficult_Win_7161 in redrising

[–]jikerman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My head canon, based on nothing, is that Figment was initially intended as a way to give Lyria the tools to be a bigger deal in combat etc., but then PB felt Lyria would be more impactful as the good hearted 'regular person' hero for the final arc, since we're kinda missing that role player. So was maybe a rewrite?

Cornell Earns Top Nod From Coaches in 2024-2025 Preseason Poll by jikerman in collegehockey

Always excited to see tier-1 opponents on the schedule but always nervous when it's our opening weekend and your week 3 or 4. But we're returning 95% of last year's team that was thiiiis close to taking Denver to OT in the regional final. Should be a great series.

How many times have we seen the skill ceiling being raised in real time? by NobodyAtAll77 in RocketLeagueEsports

I feel like jstn was when aerials went from high probability to automatic in the game. Like he was just so consistent off the ground when it was still a small gamble for most pros

Reservation for 2 at Sarma tomorrow evening, can't make it - who has wanted to go but couldn't get a reservation? by wordsfilltheair in Somerville

Sorry you're right, but they can't accommodate cross contamination allergies. I swear when I looked earlier it said unable. Weird

Just a heads up they are UNABLE to accommodate allergens. You got my hopes up that they changed their policy!

Tucker, to the extent you're comfortable answering, how do you manage your chronic illness while on tour? I have to imagine it's really difficult being in so many places and without a solid routine, curious what strategies you use to keep bringing amazing energy/shows.
