Confession: I root for Syracuse (and UConn, Nova, etc.) to win out of conference. Agree.

Jen is one thing, but Joely Richardson? Really? Doesn't she look a little "worn" to you? Hmm............ The British accent goes a long way. Until J.C. turns 40 in a couple of years I still maintain that J.R. is the hottest woman over 40 in the world. But any discussion of that should probably head over to Blue & Gray. Die, Syracuse, Die!!! (and no, that's not German for "that, Syracuse, that!") C'mon Boz.....it's "The Syracuse, The" No one who speaks German can be bad.

Confession: I root for Syracuse (and UConn, Nova, etc.) to win out of conference. My desire to see the Big East successful (and consequently stable) supersedes any anger I have toward any other team in the conference, even Syracuse. The Big East has enough teams losing OOC games to wreck the Conference RPI (including us ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) ) that we really need the top half and teams like 'Cuse to win these sorts of games. Does this make me a poor fan? Am I excommunicated from Hoya Blue for admitting this? ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png) I have lived my entire 48 years , 359 days in Upstate NY, with the exception of my years at Gtown. RB, you are now dead to me. ;D ;D

I'm with Lizzie. Now unlike some on this board, I might occasionally be willing to make an exception to the exception, but the basic rule is, down with Boheem and Boheem's teem.

It is never ok to root for Syracuse. Not when you were born in upstate NY. Not when your cousin decided to go there. Not when the mere thought of McNamara makes you throw up a little in your mouth. Not when Carmelo walks past your seat at the BET and gets heckled. Not when your little brother makes a face whenever he hears the word "Syracuse." Not when the taste of orange juice is that much sweeter cause you know it was made from squashed, decimated, pulped fruit. Not when your mother plans her wardrobe never to include orange when she visits the Hilltop. Not ever, not even once. Go Hoyas.

I don't mind Syracuse athletics (the lacrosse team is by far the most fun team to watch in the nation and Donovan McNabb was pretty awesome), it's the basketball team and imbeciles that go to "school" there that get my goat. Sue me.

Thanks Buff - luckily my wife will be 50 next month, so my "youth" allows me to act like a child whenever the Hoyas are playing - kicking, screaming and crying.

Much as Villanova fans can throw up the '85 title game to us, you can always ask SU(cks) partisans who closed Manley.

When you root for Syracuse, you root for: Jim Boeheim Derrick Coleman Ronny Seikaly Jason Hart Billy Owens John Wallace Lawrence Moten Gerry McNamara
So, yeah, I guess if that's your thing, then go for it. It's just for me, that makes me vomit a little in my mouth. Not a lot of vomit, just a little. So, I avoid that...the rooting for Syracuse. Under any condition. It makes me sick.
