I can agree with this; it may reach a point that there's no other option available.  But I would stop attending games, partly because I feel it would be the wrong decision...but mostly because this year with the football collapse and this story have tag-teamed to suck out almost all of the enjoyment I've gotten out of Syracuse athletics.

My other passion is the dismal science of economics, and as an Austrian School guy I spend my free time trying to figure out what to do when the Euro fails or the dollar goes Weimar-republic hyper-inflation.  So I'm not exactly bullish on the future of the western world.  My one break from that has generally been sports, but I'm tired of NFl lockouts, NBA lockouts, bought championships in college, steroids, etc...  I've been steadily worn down, and am coming to terms with the fact that sports aren't a respite from the world, they are a mirror on it.

I'm not sure I even have any interest left now...I may just be going to games and watching out of habit.  A Boeheim firing would be the emotionally significant event that would cause me to re-evaluate my sports passion and move on to some other interest.  If I want to feel miserable I'll just read the Financial Times.
