    Hey, don't mock me... Not too many sporting achievements to post about (face it, people don't do cartwheels about hockey and lacrosse)... so you resort to talking about the pretty uniforms.

    Cornell's colors are? Carnelian red and white.

    Last Cornell player taken in the NBA Draft? Ken Bantum in 1985.

    Hey, nothing personal! I'm certainly can't mock your alma mater what with having gone to a school that went 26-7, was its conference regular season co-champ, made its tourney final, and is not playing anywhere this postseason.

    Ken Dryden is rooting for Stanford... But he concurs with Ryan O'Neal's (or is it Al Gore?) assessment of "the wild Canadian hordes" on the Cornell team.

    Oh, no IJAG. I weep for Wisconsin ;D

    After all, didn't you see where the game is being played? OMAHA!, which might as well be the Nebraska campus of my gritty, fightin' Titans for all the trips their baseball team makes there for the CWS.

    If that guy had watched Oregon football this decade, no one would ever eat soup again.

    Birdscribe, your alma mater is so poor, they can't even support a stinking thread on SportsJournalists.com.

    A thread about Cal State Fullerton has degenerated into a discussion about any school but Fullerton.

    This Long Beach State alum laffs at you.

    Well, if you specialize in split pea, it could work.

    Mine's already eliminated from one of the lesser tournaments.

    Cornell fans' chant to Stanford when the Cardinal are up 30:

    "Safety school! Safety school!"
