If the shoe fits?

Fair enough. I don’t think your fears are warranted, as I don’t think there is any wrong doing taking place here. I hope not. I guess reading the criticism hit me on a personal level. You see, when my 2 year old niece was diagnosed with and was undergoing horrible treatment for liver cancer, Adam Weitsman not only donated his 4 season tickets for a silent auction at her benefit, he and his wife both came to the benefit and also donated (behind the scenes) $5,000 to my sister and brother in law toward their medical/travel expenses. I only shook his hand and said thank you and go ?, but he made a point to say hello and talk to just about everyone at the benefit. He doesn’t know my family. He just heard about my niece on the news and took it upon himself to help. He is a very kind human being and very down to earth. I sincerely hope everything with him and the university/basketball program is on the up and up, and I guess I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt until I learn otherwise.

I appreciate what Gore has done here, but I don’t want to keep him. I think we can do better.

Ummmmm, ehhhhhhhhh......yeahhhhh ?

Come on, dude. You’ve been bad mouthing the guy in this thread since Saturday. You also made the assertion that he “definitely” paid Brady, Edelman and Fallon to come to the game. What do you have against him?

Whatchu talkinbout Willis?

I think you’re taking a leap here without having any substantial information, and it is growing tiresome. He’s been absolutely clean since 2004. Can you cite any other specific transgressions? For those who don’t know what he is talking about. https://wbng.com/2019/12/19/weitsman-to-turn-former-davis-college-property-into-elite-basketball-academy/ How would this reflect poorly on the Syracuse basketball program in any way?

Your persistent mischaracterization of AW is a bit odd. Yes, he did get in trouble a while ago for check fraud, and it was a big deal, but the guy has really cleaned up his act and does a lot of really great stuff in the Syracuse community. He made donations on their behalf to local charities. https://weei.radio.com/blogs/ryan-hannable/story-behind-tom-brady-julian-edelman-at-syracuse-game “I talked to Tom first," Weitsman said. "I had never met Julian and I had never met Jimmy Fallon. Tom invited them, and none of these guys profited anything to come up there. They are all about charity. We did some stuff with the Boys and Girls Club and the Rescue Mission, the big charities I represent up there.

Indeed. Hopefully we don’t draw UNC in the 1st round of the ACC tourney. I haven’t watched the game yet, as my son had a hockey game tonight. What happened to Joe G?

They love the excellent skiing and world class beer ?

This new season has been amazing. Best the show has ever been, IMO.

Speak up, Shirley... I have a close friend who was his executive chef at his restaurant in Skaneateles, The Krebs, when it re-opened in 2014. He told me lots of stories about celebrities/wealthy businessmen/politicians/etc... making appearances at both his restaurant and the house quite frequently. He even told me a specific story about riding jet skis with Derek Jeter at one of his parties at the house. Do you also think he paid Jeter to attend on of his parties and ride jet skis with his guests? Perhaps he is asking his celebrity friends to attend the Syracuse games to bolster national notoriety and “Star power” as personal favors to him, but paying them to attend? I doubt it, but I’d like to hear your story.

Maybe? I guess I never expected Buffalo to give him what he would get on the FA market. He had a great season and has developed nicely, but I think some team will give him a silly deal.

You should see his house on Skaneateles Lake. It’s insane.

Weitsman is not paying celebrities to come to games with him ?

Looks like a small breasted chick on Viagara.

Not as far as I know. Brady got invited by a very wealthy business owner/season ticket holder and he invited Edelman and Fallon to come with. Brady and Kraft are both personal friends of the guy who owned the tickets.

No question about it.

I might get flamed for this, but Hughes is one of the most maddeningly inconsistent players ever. Completely disappears in chunks. Joe Girard tries to do too much. And what the hell was Dolezaj doing tonight? Uggh....next season.

My friends at the game said he got boo’ed pretty bad on his way to his seat. As for the game ? What a spectacle of a game, and they totally crapped their pants. ***** it, dude...

I thought he was on Dallas? ?

I won’t watch the XFL until Eric Dungey is a starter.

That dude was a clown.

Wasn’t that Jeff Ireland? ?

At what point in this process does Beane pop the standard “Is your mother a prostitute?” question?
