I hate BCU

I stand with my Bolton guy @RSTuthill. As of today, Peter Karmanos is no longer Public Enemy #1. #UnitedWeStand

Oh ... well there ARE exceptions to every rule. ;) I am still processing Karamanos and Bettman. And that Penguins GM who came over to the Whalers who just dismantled them. Traded Ronnie for Zarley or somebody.

I hear you, but I no longer hate teams anymore. With the possible exception of ND. I have just outgrown it. BC played a big role in getting UConn into HE. If UConn ever gets into the ACC, BC will play a big role in that for the simple reason that the Eagles are finding it unsustainable being the lone northern outpost in a southern conference. I no longer hate the Yankees, the Pats, Stanford, or South Carolina. In fact, some of the most fun I have had at games is talking to the opponents' fans. Michigan, Boise, Rutgers, you name it.

yeah, i've kinda lost track for which team, coach, player, league, etc. that i'm expected to hate on here. seems kinda against the idea for sports as entertainment and fun, unless someone thinks hate is fun.
makes aboot as much sense as, well .....
 
I will never stop hating Karamanos and Bettman. Those two people caused me to stop watching hockey for many years. It wasn't until six years ago when my grandson started playing that I got back into the sport.

The ACC has already begun mulling over unequal distribution of media rights payout.

BCU would no doubt be among the least earning schools if not the least of the entire conference.

They literally bring no added value to the ACC outside of content. Nobody is watching on TV in Boston. Nobody is giving them coverage. They are an afterthought to an afterthought.

LOL

As I write this, I am on a plane. An international flight out of the United States. Boston College football’s loss to UConn, their first such loss in program history, has broken me to the point where I can no longer even be within the same borders as the team that haunts this waking nightmare. Maybe, across the ocean, they can’t hurt me as badly as they did on Saturday afternoon. Deep down, I know I’ll come back to them. But for now, I take solace in my escape.

Weekly Kickoff: Boston College’s loss to UConn was so bad it made me leave the country

There are a lot of emotions to work through right now

There was nothing underhanded about Gibson's domination in '67. Literally.

Yeah, but he single handedly destroyed the Impossible Dream. The year I graduated and moved to CT to work for Pratt and become a Sox fan to add to my longtime Dodgers allegiance.

I was 10 - the year I became a lifelong Sox fan... They were wheeling in TVs for us to watch the day games in the classroom. Got nothing but respect for Bob Gibson though.

I just thoroughly enjoyed losing 45 minutes of time reading their Game Thread. I shouldn't revel in anyone else's misery, but I admit that I did.
BC UConn Game Thread (be sure to click "See all comments" at the end to see all the misery.)
Expand ...
Reading that was almost as much fun as the game itself. But it's clear they don't even know what truly god-awful football looks like, not the way we do after a decade of record setting futility.

This guy can leave the country but he can't escape his thoughts. No solace for you, BCU fan.

you got that right. I live here in Boston and Boston College isn't even mentioned in 11:00 news, late night sports talk on TV, sports talk radio, or water cooler conversations at work or casual sports conversations anywhere else. As far as being an afterthought to an afterthought, that might be giving them too much credit. Boston College isn't on the mental radar or sports conscious at all.

Meanwhile you would have to try hard to not hear anything about the Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics, or Bruins.

Same here. As a matter of fact, he was not on my radar before then. Guess I was guilty of following only my favorite teams.

In college hockey circles they were always mentioned.

And the Yard has that pantload Hartford Hank. Only drops by to throw shade and has done so for years. He was like a Yankee fan talking trash to Sox fans pre-2004. He tried to talk like he was an insider before he was caught in a lie. Now he's got nothing left but comic relief.

LOL BC fan saying their player was interfered with on the punt fumble. If they watched the play they would see that the UConn player didn't touch him till the ball went thru his hands.

Yeah, well, UCONN did a great job of negating a very good football player in Flowers. After that hit the kid was pretty welled cooked.
 
As for BC athletics in general, they may be in for a very long stretch. Can someone name a program they have that will compete for an ACC championship?

They always have hockey...........oh wait.......
