Message: [QUOTE="Col. Bleep, post: 225423, member: 1023"] If we have to rely on what any particular reporter or media outlet says about us to get pumped for the tourney...then we are in BIG trouble. People should stop looking for conspiracies or anti-Orange sentiment every time someone breathes. A healthy percentage of ESPN's staff are SU alumni. The people you see on TV, hear on the radio and whose work you read are just like us. They have no way to know what's really going to happen once the ball is in play. They have opinions. They express them. Hopefully, they're honest. Some are insightful. Some full of bluster. But they're paid for their opinions. The only difference is they generally get paid a lot better for their opinions than we do. And Boeheim wins himself and his team no favor by bailing on interviews. Surprising he did it. Hasn't been like him since early in his career. [/QUOTE]
