"Since when is Holy Cross a Christian school?"...what world does he live in?

It probably was, but not a good one.

Entertaining video as always from this fellow. My hat is off to all these schools for offering D-1 hockey. Some arenas are more comfortable for fans than others, but the main thing is every player gets to skate on safe frozen ice and I doubt very few fans, if any get turned away due to capacity issues.

It probably was, but not a good one. Some people don't see a big difference between various Christian Denominations. Fine. Holy Cross is Jesuit, Catholic and Christian. No? |

I would agree with all three of those, but some would not. Some Christians see HC as "Catholic" but not "Christian." They see a clear difference between the two. I have run into that in a number of places down South.

According to the Worcester Bishop the Nativity School is Jesuit and Christian but not Catholic.

So, is he Catholic but not Christian. We know he’s not Jesuit.

Pretty sure he made the same comment about HC in his review of PL basketball arenas

I've watched a bunch of his videos -he's not someone to be taken seriously. I personally get a few chuckles from them.

That is a great video! I loved his comments about the Air Force quonset hut and the Bentley blob fish. He actually refers to the Cross on Luth, not actually on the Hart ice rink. At least our barn is better than Mercyhurst and RMU. I'd like to see one about the PL football stadiums.

The main grandstand at Andy Kerr has classic lines. The stadium opened in 1939. I wonder if this is original and if it was possibly built by the W.P.A. (Works Progress Administration) which constructed many college buildings.
When I was a kid we had a short field trip to a concrete bridge near the school and a local resident who was on the W.P.A. crew explained how it was built. The small bridge over a brook was still standing and supporting car travel last I knew. It had a solid but classic design like Andy Kerr.

The small bridge over a brook was still standing and supporting car travel last I knew. It had a solid but classic design like Andy Kerr. I remember the HC press guide the year the PL started. They had photos of every stadium. Colgate's photo was a picture of the press box. Nothing else. Shows you how proud they were of the facility. I was there in 1990. They had razed the stands on one side and were going to do the same to the side we (and everyone else) was sitting on once the empty side was done. So nothing remains of the old place. But, you are right, reminds me a bit of some places built in the WPA era, like this one in Lowell (might have been replaced since this photo was taken). |
