One thing we can agree on re: fab

[STEVEHOLT]

Unlikely he will be developing technique for cold fusion.

 

[edowd26]

not unless he starts a love affair with val kilmer whilst dodging russian mafians after his cold fusion formula.

 

[HoustonCuse]

Funny that you mention it, I actually believe this whole thing is an attempt by the Syracuse physics department to co-opt Melo's formula for cold fusion.

 

[OrangeCrush22]

I think he's an "idiot savant".

Jesus, The Saint gets a syracusefan.com board referance? Really?

But I would wreck Elizabeth Shue. She's still got it going on at 48. (but I would much prefer the one Ralph Macchio was hangin' with)

 

[Ghost]

I'd be very happy if this thing ended with Melo pulling a val kilmer and redirecting a laser at Calhoun's house and exploding a gigantic bag of popcorn inside.

Has it occurred to anyone that Fab's current situation may not be about IQ?

I wonder how Fab's snarky board critics would do if they moved to Brazil and took college courses taught in Portuguese, while being subject to the time demands of playing a D-1 sport? How many posters can speak 3 languages? It's also very possible that Fab's academic issues don't have anything to do with intelligence and more about time management (having an incomplete grade) or some other issue.

Maybe he's not a card-carrying member of Mensa, but let's cut him a little slack. And leave the personal attacks to the immature fans in road venues - that is, assuming we're lucky enough to ever see Fab in a Syracuse uniform again.

Hey, read what I wrote...i said it was unlikely that he would be developing cold fusion technique. I did not exclude it.

One thing I know for certain: this board (and its patrons) are mostly insane.

I actually believe the reason some of his studies were lacking was because he was developing a cure for cancer while at the same time perfecting cold fusion to end the world's dependence on fossil fuels.

 

[Gonzo]

his return will be conditioned by being tutored by Sheldon from Big Bang Theory...that would be a classic episode

 

[KevMonstah]

I would cut him some slack if his issues stem from language difficulty, dyslexia, whatever.

I would *NOT* cut any athlete a bit of slack if it relates to unexcused absences, which was what I thought it was about. Athletes have a bit more freedom related to missing class than the average student; to up a class (potentially a season, and by extension, moments to shine for scouts) is almost a crime.
