Message: [QUOTE="HtownOrange, post: 5348727, member: 622"] See your post at #8825. Again, don't let facts get in the way of your false narrative. Your "insight" into SU fans' stated above and copied here for your convenience as you are not able to recall your nonsense: [I]What I do think most Syracuse fans do not want to see is how little value there is in the entire Northeast for Major CFB. It is not a recent problem, and there is no sign it ever will get better.[/I] To believe you we must ignore facts. Let's ignore the fact that CFB was originally a huge sport in the northeast, long before your Tar Heels thought of playing competitive football ... oh, wait, your Tar Heels have yet to be truly competitive and relevant in college football. Let's ignore the fact that you fail to define the northeast and seem to change the definition as it fits your argument of the moment. For clarification, let's take everything north of Virginia as most southern fans believe Maryland is a northern state for football, some believe Virginia is, too. Let's ignore the fact that you ignore the usual assessment that ACC football does not fit the usual TV ratio of 75/25 of football to hoops and is more likely 50/50. Let's ignore the fact that the northeast, even under your VERY flexible definitions, is very pro-college hoops. Let's ignore the fact that ESPN makes money off the ACC, especially in the populace NORTHEAST! Let's ignore the fact that ESPN would not have given the ACC a network without SU and PITT (and for what it's worth, BC and Louisville, another northern school, like ND!) Are you seeing a trend or common denominator with any of this? You have failed every attempt to explain why SU fans should follow your "logic", which often contradicts your "logic" elsewhere. No one on this site believes that SU will carry the ACC's day, nor believes that the SEC and B1G are begging SU to join. Most fans on this site understand the importance of college football to TV revenue. HINT: Several fans on this site, courtesy of the #1 communications school!, are LITERALLY experts in all facets of TV, media, print, etc., you may wish to tread lightly. We non-media types on this site believe the site experts far more than we will believe a fan of an irrelevant college football team. Anyway, have at it. Maybe you change your handle to "Don Quixote".
