Jay Bilas is the man! Loves Cuse

Unfortunately facts and logic don't seem to work in this country. Look at the idiot politicians people elect.

It must be the preservatives and artificial coloring.
Solomon is hammering SU all over his account. Not sure where his anger stems from. I agree, facts be damned, you can pretty much say whatever you want these days, or at least spin a story in your favor.
 
Exactly. You break down the report to its elements and it's BS. They applied a standard of liability ex post facto to Boeheim in a scenario where he was specifically excluded from being involved in.

A series of minor, isolated, disconnected events taking place over a extended period of time were conflated and represented as a systemic continuous pattern of cheating.

The fact of the matter is that the lengths and contortions that the athletic department went through to maintain Fab's eligibity is evidence that there was no intention to cheat. They all obviously knew that what they were doing was unusual but instead of just fixing the books they tried to find a way to get him eligible compliantly. Read the report, all the meetings, all the oversight, were found to be proper, it only crossed the line when the director of operations took it upon himself to close the action instead of Fab completing the work. There is no evidence that he was directed to do that, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if actions out of the meeting explicitly stated, "make sure he does this himself".

If SU was such a corrupt renegade program, where are all the recruiting violations?

Your standard blogger posing as a journo is not equipped to understand the basics, let alone the obfuscation contained within that overlong BS indictment.

I realize your post could be at least partially humor, but there IS a systematic effort to dumb down the population and plenty of ways it is done(and the effects are clearly measured with many countries ahead of us, including many of the poorest!!![from whom we recruit workers!]).

MSG(also under 40+ hidden names) is an excitotoxin that literally excites brains cells to burn themselves out. That's one dietary example of many, and wont get into the dept of education and media. But I'm grateful for your post, because if we want to focus our energy on "systematic" things, which actually can be measured and proven, it's shameful we're(as a society) persuaded against doing so.

Oh, that and lack of any real choice(other than how the Constitution is violated, instead of whether the candidate will honor their oath not to, or not) beyond the primaries, in most elections of importance. Folks arent aware the choice comes before the general election. The oligarchy media sure as heck isn't about to educate them on that, and will purposefully do the opposite. Witness the history of Ron Paul's media blackout even after he realized the deck was stacked against third parties. As a trivia note, RP did get the 2nd most delegates in the gop last time, even after going mysteriously silent for some big states at the very end, as his supporters attempted the now bandied term of "brokered convention". I wont get into the details of primary cheating that Ben Swann broadcasted, but that's a name folks might be wise to check on youtube...as he has a sad monopoly on MSM truth telling.

But in other news, yeah the national media's portrayal of certain coaches can be unfair too.

On the positive side, Syracuse mentions must generate a **** ton of click bait. These clowns wouldn't be incessantly talking about us if nobody was clicking on their trash bags of journalistic dog ish.

I agree that we're a name school, but at the same time we are one of only 4 teams left to talk about for a week, so it's to be expected in a society that loves scandal...
 
I'm pretty sure we're getting talked about more than UNC who actually has an investigation ongoing.

Not sure anybody is even aware that Oklahoma plays Villanova before Cuse/UNC.

You may be right, but I may be a minority on here who hasn't allowed myself to give a concern to what the media is saying. I'm more concerned if the Cuse can beat UNC on the court and prove the public and vegas line wrong yet again. I'm also wondering if it might be wise to use those 9 points to my advantage. The scandals don't seem to effect that, that I am aware of.

Some of us prefer to think for ourselves at times, even though this society doesnt teach critical thinking. You dont necessarily need anyone to agree with you to be right.

That said, I'm not trying to be a heel at the moment. I do ENJOY when Bilas and others back our beloved Cuse and am GLAD for this thread about what Bilas is saying. I'm just reminding folks that Bilas isn't altering what happened in the past, even if he is altering perception in others who dont follow this board.

Bilas doesn't love Cuse.

He loves logic, reasonable arguments and factual information.

Yes, I agree. It is far better than just having a guy love us so he defends us. Jay is the smartest guy in the room on multiple levels and he is correcting people who are claiming the Syracuse program is guilty of much more than it really did.

It didn't bother until today really. It's starting to become weird. You've got a ton of Cuse grads and fans defending us along with some friends of the program vs a moronic, uninformed, borderline angry group of "journalists". It's like they've been awaiting the day to avenge their Newhouse rejection letter.
 
I guess I'm just saying it wouldnt hurt us to look at how much our emotions are effected by the words of others, and then after that sinks in, realize it can be altered by simple choice. That goes for the posts on here as well as national media. Many folks on here are as talented as plenty of them. And I do agree that Bilas seems to have a better grasp of logic than others, but then again I'm aware that my bias effects what I see in saying things like that. Ok, off to another thread, as topics on the media tend to rile me!

MPAI - most people are idiots. It's part of why the negative media attention doesn't really bother me; being on the wrong side of people with lower IQs than your average Great Dane isn't something to get upset about. As a rough estimate, that probably 70% of the population.

It's part of why I'm not a believer in universal democracy; giving people that can't string together three coherent sentences or balance their checkbook as much ability to select the leadership of the country as the small percentage of people with both high IQ and long term time preferences is a recipe for disaster.

Our founding fathers were against democracy too, that's why they gave us a republic! It's sad how many supposedly intelligent people are ignorant of that fact and of how they can truly effect change if they care enough to. The emotions of the masses(eg, after one of these false flag shootings) were not supposed to effect our birth-given rights, protected by the Constitution. Yet we see recent examples of how that is happening. Regardless of who wins the Presidency, the death of the one strict interpretation USSC justice is likely to greatly change life as we know it. Forced union membership was about to end, for instance, but was sent into extra innings.

Ok, I really need to make it to another thread. Hopefully Bilas can persuade some of the media elite to start seeing things our way! ;)
