    On the flight back from spending just over a week there and thought I would share my experience. Stayed at the relatively new all-inclusive Xcaret Arte. It’s adults only but has a connecting property that is very similar and family friendly called Xcaret Mexico. There are about 6 parks owned...

    When I Log In, Basketball Forum Disappears

    So the other day I loaded up the site and saw there was no Basketball Forum. Same thing on computer and phone, so I figure I must have somehow hidden it in my account but I'll be damned if I can figure it out. When I view the site without logging in, I can see it fine. If I click on "Syracuse...

    Orangeyes Open 2022

    OrangeOnions sutomcat Any word on if the Open will be a go this year? Sorry if it’s been brought up, but I haven’t seen anything. I need to know if I have to reach out to my merry band of misfits to see which ones are in and which ones have some sort of piss poor excuse.

    OT: ESPN Article: Shelly Pennefather

    If you were around Utica/Rome/Syracuse during the early 90s, I'm sure you knew her or knew her name - she was unbelievable. Really good article. Whatever happened to Villanova basketball star Shelly Pennefather? 'So I made this deal with God.'
