I see that this jersey number is being honoured and retired in recognition of John Wallace. Maybe this was already done previously, I'm not sure. John certainly is well deserving of this honour. I would have figured this was done long ago for Derek Coleman. In any event, they both deserved...

I have a serious hearing impairment so I might have missed some stuff, but I came away with a totally different opinion than some of you. Don't think there was anything negative in the interview except the weather comments. I certainly enjoyed it.

The post game handshake line. It just seems coach Red puts it in overdrive and flashes down the line as quick as possible after every game. I hope other teams and coaches aren't thinking he is "snubbing" them somehow. I'm sure he is not doing that, but for me it just looks a little weird...

Correct my ignorance being a foreigner, and only been to a game at the dome once, are those "total prices" for a season?

Time to make a move ;);)

Didn't see the cheerleaders at the game last night. Don't think I saw Otto either.

My goodness, I thought I was one of the oldest dudes on here. I was in my early 30's when I was strolling the TV channels and saw over 30K in this dome stadium for a college basketball game (WOW!). Not sure, but it could have been Georgetown. The star of the team was a Canadian kid named Leo...

Some of the same things I noticed. That stretch where we had a number of stops and we got to within six (I think) was a good trend. Thought we might actually have a shot at this. Then we got back to taking stupid shots and turning it over ourselves and that did it. Seems when we got close...

Definitely against the majority here, but I'm with you. When I saw him on the opening shot at the broadcast desk I said to myself "oh no". Just my opinion.

Oops, my bad :confused:

We haven't had any kind of national relevance since the sweet sixteen in 2018 in my opinion. Not even making the tournament recently is an embarrassment for this program. There is an opportunity in Maui to do something about this. I really like how coach Red is handling the team and I'm...

Actually, that is four words I think. Unless you are going with a "bundle" (as per Allstate commercial) ;);)

Yes it was

I must say that this Bronze Game was nowhere near as physical as all the other games Canada had played. Perhaps because pretty much all the players know each other very well, play against each other regularly and are teammates in some cases. Canada blew a large lead in the fourth quarter and...

Yes they did

Just re-watched the Michigan State game from 2004 and those were the words used by the announcers to describe Billy Edelin. Oh, what could have been? :(:(

We haven’t qualified for the basketball Olympics since 2000 I believe. The FIBA World Cup has been going for over a week or so in East Asia. Canada beat a very good Spanish team yesterday to qualify for the Olympics next year. FIBA basketball is very physical and can be quite exciting. We...

Afraid not Mark. Ottawa is the closest football team to where I live, but I don't cheer for them.

NY Islanders - NHL. Syracuse Orange - NCAA. Winnipeg Blue Bombers - CFL. Las Vegas Raiders - NFL. The foirst two Il have had for quite a while, the football ones are the most recent arrivals. I'm ready for fall and winter now :)

I would like to send some kudos out to the radio broadcaster for these games. The guy keeps us up to date with foul numbers on players and gives substitutions when they happen. Would rather watch, but next best thing,.

ESPN+ :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Please, please, please

That game deserves "regular" TV broadcast :mad:

I'm good :)

Just wondering if there are any other radio stations broadcasting the game other than ESPN Syracuse just in case that feed does not come through for me. Thanks,

Must say I was actually pleased with the performance of the alums in game one. White shot lights out. Rak was a rock in the middle. Johnson had a very good game. Jimmy made some plays early, but struggled later on. Chris was very active although his jumper was not working. Pascal also did...

Thanks for the responses gang :) IthicaMatt – ESPN+ is blocked in Canada. I would need to get a VPN with an American IP address and get a password from somebody for it to work. Not worth the effort or expense. cuseattle – I know you have always been sympathetic to my situation. Yes, this forum...

I hope you guys don't get tired of me with a lot of my posts being directed at frustration to watch our hoops games. Game one was on ESPN which was fine for me. Game two (and hopefully game three) are on ESPN+ which I can't get. During the telecast the announcers said the games were being...

Well, you got me there I guess. Let's go with "jersey" numbers then ;)

Can anybody fill me on on the actual players that will be competing for us tonight? Was reading where one or two will not be there, while there may be late additions. Appreciate it. Sweater numbers would be beneficial as well if they are known. Thanks.

That might be my only chance as my supplier indicated today the CW channel is not available on DISH Network in northern New York. However, she did say that, due to the unusual circumstances of my location, she could possibly move my address of record from Watertown to Buffalo where the channel...

I want to thank you guys for all the input on this, it is appreciated. I have no channel "The CW" or "TCW". I found a couple of websites for "CW 14/22 Watertown". One had a link saying "Where can I get this channel?" and when I clicked on this I got some weird error window and was blocked...

This is true to a degree. Numerous outlets up here sell the hardware, but you need to have an American firm handle the programming, and billing is handled through them. My service provider is in Detroit which is who I have to contact regarding program servicing and packages, cannot contact...

Channel 34 is not on my list of available Dish Network channels. I don't see CW as being on a different number either :mad: Will be making a call on Monday to find out the scoop.

I'll have to check to see if CW is on my Dish Network package. If it isn't, I am going to be P'd. I don't get YES network so losing those games does not effect me. Since the ACCN came on stream I have been able to get about 24 games a year which includes ESPN. The ones I don't get are...

For those who didn't know, McGill University is in Montreal. Regardless, good opportunity for Canadian recruitment if he does come back to the Orange

Good for you Kris. Nice to see him back in his home Country :)

I will miss Steve Young and Suzy Kolber :(:(

When I was young and starting to smoke you were not "cool" unless you had Export A in your pocket. Current - Here in Southwestern Ontario it was really bad the last three days. Improved today and this evening is actually quite clear.

I see Benny and Maliq getting more than last year. Will likely depend on playing time.

Oh ya, my man and fellow Canuck - ODDBALL ;)

Thanks for posting those clips. Hadn't really seen or heard much about him to be honest. Of course, with our regression in recent years I have really only watched our team. I was very impressed watching his shot blocking technique. He seemed very structured on that aspect of his game and...

Ah yes, I remember it well. Those were fun times for sure :):)

That was absolutely "INCREDIBLE". I enjoyed every minute of it :):):) All the people involved in putting this together should be congratulated for such an excellent production. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the link guys :)

I was flipping through the channels last night and thought I heard JB would be on his show tonight. Will likely check it out to see.

Is there a link anywhere on-line yet?

Other than the short hiccup with the podium microphone, this went extremely well. JB definitely got emotional which was expected I think. Red said all the right things given the situation. I am optimistic going forward. Something I've been thinking about for a while now is the fact we could...

Do we know if this press conference will be shown on-line somewhere like cuse.com? I'm not into the social media stuff so that won't work for me. How about radio?

My man, and fellow Canuck Leo Rautins, was the reason I became a huge Syracuse Hoops fan in the early 1980's. Coach Jim will be missed for a number of reasons, and especially the incredible memories I have of the program. Don't recall if I've ever made a comment about a replacement coach, or...
