Maybe, instead of rooting for their teams, he can maintain a detached neutrality to work on his approach as a future broadcaster. He will need to unlearn everything he has experienced growing up in Philadelphia where abject homer Phanboys are coin of the realm. But one can dream.

As a Yankee fan, and someone who has watched ESPN broadcasts of Syracuse games, I have certainly been exposed to plenty of homer broadcasting. Perhaps it's inescapable.

Well, if my son has proven anything over his 18 years, it is that he can defy odds… He has sworn his blood allegiance to GU soccer…

Harry made it official today.
He has decided to attend Newhouse to study Broadcast Journalism.
Wrote a nice note to Coach Wiese before he did so and got a wonderful, supportive reply from his good friend.
I am very proud of him charting his own course in life.
I did remind him that you can’t spell SUCKS without SU.

Good for him and congrats.
You can always introduce him to the concept of paying tuition as he goes ;-)

I am not that frequent a poster, but I have been rooting for Harry for the last 13 years or so. I still am (but maybe not is basketball team).
