Message: [QUOTE="Scooch, post: 14814, member: 628"] Thanks Jim, I love reading stuff like that. For the other 3 teams I'm a huge fan of (Sox, Pats, Celts) I have family rooting interests that go back generations, so even though team history preceded my arrival on Earth, it's somehow still a part of the experience because I was raised to know it and appreciate it. But for SU, since I didn't grow up in NY nor did I have any SU fans in my family, I only came to it when I got to the Hill in '91, so I have a hard time connecting with the great (and bad) moments from decades ago. FWIW, I'm not defeatist about SU winning a title in my lifetime, I'm just a realist. More importantly, it allows me to accurately set my expectations. I think people who expect SU to be a consistent top 10 team and contend for national titles are going to end being really miserable. [/QUOTE]
