LaxPower Back-Up Stick

I agree that Lyght was playing Shellenberger pretty well, but do you really want a first year man who hadn’t done much all day or a big middie whose game is overpowering smaller defensive players but who was struggling to key the possession? That possession took me back a generation to a game at Rut...

ND win the gb battle against a team that usually wins it. Criticize the OC if you will, but UVA didn’t get much offense from any of their usual leaders except for their all time leading goal scorer. I would say it was a bit curious on that late possession to see the third attackman and a midfielder ...

And UVA didn’t have possession there because someone couldn’t scoop the critical gb, kind if the story of the day.

Hope springs eternal!

UVA best ND twice last year but lost their most important matchup. It’s hard to find any weaknesses on ND. Like most teams, they could use some depth a dm, and their attack, while excellent, lacks a natural lefty. UVA has some top talent but features a few weaknesses that have been apparent all year...

Finished “Dr. No” after “James” and will start “Telephone” tonight.

I always park on Linkwood. You may have to park farther north than usual with the anticipated crowd. When I lived in Hampden, I walked to Homewood. Back then we didn’t have those two hour restricted areas, but as property values have skyrocketed, I think parking is more duffito find there. Linkwood ...

I thought so, too, at the beginning of the season. I’m not sure I agree now.

Now reading part 2 of “James.” If “Moby Dick” is not the great American novel, then I’ll defer to Hemingway, who said “Huckleberry Finn” is the touch stone. Everett relates the events of HF from the standpoint of Jim. I was initially hesitant about a reworking of a masterpiece, but this one is capti...

I would, too, and that’s why I’m looking forward to seeing him versus Brandau. I just don’t think it’s going to a defenseman on a team that’s not having a great season. I guess his best position is LSM, but against UVA Ct he took face-off wings but covered Shellenberger. I assume he always covers th...

I earlier that the winner would be a member of a team that makes a deep run in the playoffs, in other words, O’Neill, Shellenberger, Pat Kavanagh, or the other big lefty who plays for the Ivy team that I think will give the farthest. I’m not sure how far Yale will go, but Brandau is so far ahead in ...

Quite obvious to this ACC fan that the Ivies are far from weak. The second best team in the ACC lost to a team that may of may not make the ILT. Another team that could make the ILT outplayed the third best team in the ACC, and the best team in the Ivy League beat the fourth—maybe third—best team in...

As someone who follows the ACC closely—there is a highly regarded freshman attackman on my favorite teams and the best player on the weakest ACC team is a freshman—I’m not sure there’s a freshman attackman in the ACC that I would trade for Goldstein. He’s fundamentally sound, he doesn’t hog the ball...

Helluva year. He started off in the T race behind big names from the ACC and Cornell and is now running with it.

Sorry to hear it but at least now I know that my computer and phone are not junk and that I’m not completely nuts. That’s always a fear when you reach my age!

Is anyone else having trouble with the feed? I’m having trouble on both phone and desktop.

Are Booker and George brothers? I have a funny story about the older George Corrigan, the brother of Gene and Dick Corrigan, former UVA and Yale coaches.

From this ACC fan and Ivy reject, Cornell would vie for the number one spot in the ACC this year. They beat SU in what looked like a blowout and damn near beat the number one team in the country. Their attack is superb, their first midfield is excellent, and they are getting superior play from the g...

Rough first quarter so far.
