Good first half for Syracuse. I don’t know if maybe they had a NyQuil chugging contest at halftime, but they looked horrible in the 2nd half. Defense slowed down, no intensity on the boards, and the shots stopped falling. To be fair, Boeheim looked to be doing a bit of tinkering with the lineup. One interesting combo was JG3-Hughes-Braswell-Dolezaj-Sidibe. Braswell came in and hit a couple big threes, but his PT was cut short as he quickly got the Boeheim hook for some reason. I really think these are the games where JB needs to be getting Braswell minutes. Clearly Bras has found himself in the dog house. Sidibe might as well not have hands at all because he can’t catch any passes in the low post. Niagara fans with a really nice turn out. I was really surprised at how full the Dome was. We got to the hill at 5:15 and Faegan’s was already completely packed. It really is the only place to go in that area for pregame food/drinks. What a shame. I really miss Chucks. We ended up going to Varsity and waiting in line for 45 minutes for some “meh” pizza. We had some great seats and my boy had a great time on his birthday though. Things are going to get really interesting here as ACC play begins. Go ?

I was also there for the Clemson game. Nearly died of dehydration and heat exhaustion by half time. The hill definitely isn’t what it used to be. Chucks was always our go-to pregame spot, and then usually would grab a slice at Varsity after the game. Varsity has decent food, but not great (IMO). It’s more about the experience. We always go to Faegan’s nowadays. Solid food, a very good beer selection, and a great game day atmosphere.

Yup. I didn’t get a free education at Syracuse University, but I do still know the good spots to eat/drink/shop on the hill. Meet us there at around 5:30 and I’ll buy you a beer. ?

Could this also be the end for John Dorsey? One of the most bizarre and annoying characters on Hard Knocks a year ago...

Awesome! Can you teach my wife how to cook?

I’ll be at the game tonight with my son for his 10th birthday if anyone is going to be around. We’ll be in section 107. At Faegan’s before the game for dinner. Hit me up! Go Cuse ?

You have your very own thread now. Spread your wings and talk hoops with your Bona brethren!! I know for a fact there are a lot of you good folks floating around here. Cheers ?!

Thread started as a courtesy to @bbb and all the other Bona fans on this board. Best of luck to you all on your season.

Quite honestly, I don’t really know all that much about Osun whateverhisnameis, but I wish him the best of luck just like the vast majority or recruits that spurn Syracuse. Also, good for Bona. I noticed their win over Middle Tenn St. That’s a quality win. I always root for them when they’re not playing Cuse, as my sister is an alum. What puzzles me is why you would continue to post in Syracuse basketball thread purely to rub our nose in the *****. You didn’t see any Cuse fans posting in the Bona thread (oh wait...there isn’t one) when your boys lost to perennial powers Ohio, UVM, Siena and Canisius... Look, we’re not good. We probably won’t make the NCAA tourney, and perhaps not even the NIT. Congrats. I’ll go ahead and start a Bona basketball thread for you all to enjoy. Let’s see if you can keep it afloat on your way to a nat’l title ?

Leslie Frazier?

You’d let her piss in your coffee?

Ahhh....I recognized her face immediately. Psoriasis looks awful. Good lord ?

I take WR2 because I know WR1 must be Amari Cooper.

Girls just wanna have fun....melting their face off!!

I had Mike Boone last night. League championship and $300-400 on the line. All I needed was 6 points, Boone!! WTF. I hate fantasy football.

Yeah, he’s really setting the world on fire against Gannon, Niagara and Hofstra. I’m sure NBA execs are drooling. Get real.

How is a thread that in the title declares that a Bills player “sucked” contributing positively to the community? This is not a Jets message board.

Gert.....nerb...soda................calamity.............. ?

No offense, but “Jordan Phillips absolutely spinach basted Brady at the 9 yard line!” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Fake news!!! SAD

It’s lamb basted.

That’s all good stuff, but what did you think about Reid Ferguson?

Yes! Meatyocrity! It means a quality or state of being mediocre. It stems back to Greek mythology when Zeus would criticize Ambrosia (god of food and wine) for over cooking the lamb. Yeesh...don’t you people speak American?!

Yes. It means to criticize harshly. Stems from the ol’ english saying when lamb herders busted the cook’s balls for basting the lamb improperly.

May least Sanborn was good for a magic trick or two.
