First, thanks for most all of you posters who are voluntarily keeping the
scores out of the subject line. I am about to watch the tape delay of
BU-BC and I do not know the score ahead of time!!
Second, I second the motion to somehow change the RPI thing to RI (ratings
index?) or somesuch. It can be a bit confusing esp if you are mentioning
RPI's RPI! And no self respecting alum will condescend to use
"Rensselaer" I think :-)
BTW, I received an alum newsletter the other day touting a "contest" to
rename "Rensselaer's athletic teams" It said that the name "Engineers"
was only used by the hockey team. I don't think this is true, I think
football did and other sports. Any recent alum comments? The main reason
seems to be that the name "Engineers" is not marketable, i.e. you can't
make a cuddly doll or whatever to sell. How about a tee-shirt with a
slide rule on it? :-)
Go Engineers!!

PS - any comments on the play of Spadafore in goal at Air Force on Fri
would be welcome!!
