Ex Hoya Michael Graham Pulls $1million Lotto Ticket

[kingtidge]

What good karma did this ever create to deserve this?

Never thought I could dislike him more... until now.

 

[Scotiacuse]

Is that our trade off for winning the championship!?!

I'll take it.

It was actually Patrick Ewing's ticket, but he couldn't read it

Maybe you don't know the history of this crapola thrown at Ewing so just in case, I'm going to give you some history. I was there, so I know this first-hand. In 1981, when Ewing was a freshman, all of 18 years old, this same was thrown his way in the most mean-spirited, hurtful manner possible. It stemmed from a letter that Mike Jarvis, his high school coach, had written to some 150 schools explaining that Ewing would need tutoring and other assistance in college but that he was a good student and would work hard. What followed, predictably, were the "Ewing Can't Read" signs at games. Now, I'm as big a GTown hater as there is, and have hated them relentlessly since the BE began, but what Ewing was taunted with then, along with all the racial overtones that went with it, was awful. And, it was more than 40 years ago. Give it a rest. I don't know you, so it's not personal, but for you to perpetuate this crap at Ewing all these years later isn't exactly cool. Turns out, he's got a degree in Fine Arts, btw.

So, Michael Graham just used up all the good Hoya Mojo for the next 15 years. Awesome.

Ewing understood about four words in the paragraph.









totally kidding.



But I don't feel bad he can't read... he has acclimated more wealth than I ever will... He can't read, I confuse colors (apparently), we all have our deficiencies.

Lighten up. Ewing, like those other hoyas, was a thug. Was the taunting mean. Of course. maybe you missed his esteemed coach giving the throat slash sign at thye last G-town game in D.C.. Maybe you missed the lottery winner and his punches. I didn't.

 

[skurey]

You can never go too far when it comes to hating Georgetown.

Perhaps he uses the language better than you just did...you don't "acclimate" wealth, you "accumulate" wealth. The can't read thing, enough already.

No I didn't miss any of that. In fact, I was at the Graham punch game. It's not the point. Literacy is no joke, ever. Whether or not Ewing was a thug on the court, which he was, is no excuse for this kind of garbage 40 year later.

Ok, so if you make a post about someone's grammar or spelling, probably not the best idea to leave "40 year" singular. Just saying.

 

[skurey]

not to mention it's 30 not 40

 

[tptcuse]

So Graham "punched" his ticket? ba-dum-bum

 

[seanmac1844]

How the hell did it become wrong to talk about someone from Georgetown on a Syracuse fan board? Seriously, did I miss a memo? Have you seen the things they write about our players? them.

i doubt it, but if he does i'm cool with it.

 

[CuseTroop]

Its kinda funny, if Ewing could read, he would know that someone was sticking up for him on a Syracuse message board..

Is that to say he slowly defrosted all that cool cash he made in the NBA up to room temperature?
