Official Syracuse Unintended Hilarity Thread

[HuskyBaggins]

I suspect HuskyBaggins was on the lucky side of a small sample size during the short time he lived there.

My brother went to college in Rochester and my son in Oneonta. I would be perfectly happy to never again travel to that region; it is a cold, depressing pisshole.

Baseball Hall of Fame is cool, though.

Short time ? I've lived in CNY for over 20 of the last 30 years, including the last 9. Longer than anywhere else I've lived, including my home state of CT.

Hell, it was cold and snowy and ishtty in winter when I went to school in VA. Just not as LONG as in CT or CNY.

 

[CL82]

Sure, some years there's a decent amount of lake effect snow. And ? Wah. Especially for a college kid, in this case living on campus in Syracuse. Almost identical to the weather in Storrs.

Really? I always thought Canada got more severe snow than we did.

 

[Rocktheworld]

Yeah, ok, tell us more about a thing you know nothing about. First, Lake Ontario does not ever freeze over. And "lake effect" is the only reason CNY gets more snow than CT, though even then, like I said NOT ALWAYS. Winter was a breeze in CNY this year. Certainly not at all different than CT.

Lmao you really aren’t too bright, kid. Maybe the stupid is contagious in Southern Canada

Syracuse

Storrs. Yeah basically identical

Oh and North Canaan, the most northwest town in CT, where there are ski mountains, averages less than half what Syracuse does, at 53 inches per year.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

One thing we do need to give Syracuse credit for is the professional manner they announced their new head coach

 

[ucp990411]

I am guilty as well but why do we spend time talking about such a half butt, inferior program? Let's concentrate on more important things like winning a National Championship, you know the fifth one.

 

[CCSUblue]

FIFY
Oh and Salisbury, the most northwest town in CT, where there are ski mountains, averages less than half what Syracuse does, at 53 inches per year.

Maybe on drugs when in Storrs and Cuse stupid has taken a hold on you but I would bet my house and retirement accounts that it snows more in CNY than Storrs on a Yearly average more than 75% of the time. It is nothing like Storrs.

See my post above

But this got me thinking more, how many places in the COUNTRY get more snow than Finger Lakes State? I was surprised at how big an idiot @HuskyBaggins actually is lmaoooo

Do we really need all of this negativity on game day? Not good for the mojo.

 

[metsfan2323]

Pretty lame that we have a final four game hours away and this thread is at the top of the board. Maybe look in the mirror for the "unintended hilarity".

Having trouble finding all the Final Four related threads?

Thanks for ironically bumping the thread lmao

{A bunch of data giving a dose of reality to HuskyBaggins}

It's not just the cold and snow. The entire area is a barren, depressing pisshole.

When the school eventually circles the drain, they won't even be able to convert it into some kind of casino/low-end retail the way Bethlehem, PA did. CNY is the pits; no one will want to travel there.

Axe: While Syracuse counts ACC money, UConn wins another NCAA title. Who’s making out better?

Brent Axe writes about UConn's fifth national championship and how it has found a way around the narrative that football has to drive the bus in college sports.

www.syracuse.com

He basically stated that he'd rather be in Syracuses shoes than ours- even after Monday.

he'd rather potentially win another natty than actually win one is the way I'm taking this. Thought it would brighten your already joyous day.

I think we should put the Cuse rivalry to bed. It no longer makes sense

 

[Wise2]

If you asked them this question, what would the answer be:

Would you go back to the BE if you were guaranteed 2 NC in the next 10 years or stay in the ACC and not win one for the next 20

 

[UofCT]

As long as our fanbases dislike one another we will always be rivals. From a success standpoint no they can't sit at our lunch table. I'm onto the next phase of our dominance where we leap Duke and catch UNC, Kentucky.

 

[amory]

the conference badge is all they have, so yeah they're going to lean hard on it

A new era in men's basketball has arrived

The Rutgers board is also going through it - apparently Hurley said he would take the job when they hired Pike but only with a 7 year contract and they wouldn’t do it.

There is a long post in one of the threads basically saying that the potential of being good one day in football and basketball due to Big 10 money is way better than being UConn because our achievements are in the past (despite winning a natty the day before the post, and also sweeping them in baseball last weekend) and we will never be able to sustain success in anything bc our football isn’t good (ignoring we have won 2 titles since Edsall 1.0)

Simon Biles - level mental gymnastics

which is so very satisfying to see because they also realize the ACC is already on borrowed time. the SEC and BIG10 poaching the ACCs top brands and football programs (e.g. ND, UNC, UVA, FSU, Miami, Clemson) is a matter of when not if.

Two things I have learned over my life apply here:

• I can’t fix stupid
• I can’t stop someone from being wrong

They are a lost cause.

BB in the Big East is great! Playing at MSG is special. Playing in another conference would not be as good for BB but the additional revenue would greatly help the Athletic Department

Fixed it.
