Those of you who actually read my UML posts, all three of you (Hi, Mom!), will
remember that I predicted that Fankhouser would be the goalie left home based
on his performance compared to Martin Fillion's in the RPI game.  (Fillion
played the first half and gave up nothing but had very little pressure;
Fankhouser gave up two but faced a *lot* more pressure.)  I'd figured that the
lack of pressure wasn't Fillion's fault and he'd go west.  Yes, I'm keeping my
day job.  :-)
