First :  I disagree with the sentiment that two ties is worse than a win and a
loss.  This is in response to Ralph Slater on the Dartmouth-Union tiebreaker.
A tie is better than a loss, and therefore tying twice is better than winning
one and losing one.  A tie should not be encouraged, like it was in the
Olympics by having shootouts afterwards -- ce hockey.
Especially rink time.  I played street all day and night, however.  Who knows,
maybe I could have been good at ice hockey.  I always wondered if the Hockey in
Harlem program got anywhere.  Geoff said some of those guys are in prep hockey.
 Do you know who?
 
In response to Grier being the target.  He is likely a target because of his
publicity and because he's good.  I pray one of the reasons is NOT because he's
black. This may a reason someday, however, just like it is being Jewish for
Mathieu Schneider.  That story still depresses me.  Of course those people are
in the very small minority, but it's just a thought.
