Syracuse #44 Coming Up On PTI

[Bill Orange]

Thanks, again, Donovan

"We don't actually know the first thing about the history of 44 other than three guys who wore it, and we have no actual clue and certainly haven't researched whether recruits are aware of the history, but we're going to rail against it anyway."

That basically sums up Wilbon and Kornheiser in that segment. Unbelievably frustrating to hear people with zero knowledge of the situation shooting their mouths off.

Unprofessional and unprepared.

Maybe Wilbone and Kornhole should ask the players who wore the number. You know, Floyd Little and Jimmy Brown...pretty sure they said it was the right thing to do.

They did indicate that Brown & Little we're in favor, but they went oppo. Just weird.

Weak sauce!

That's 90% of sports "media."

 

[CanadianSU]

They knew less about 44 than they know about hockey.

Well, there you go. Who cares what Floyd Little and Jim Brown say? The opinions of two D-bags with a horrific TV show are much more vital

Wilbon and Kornheiser are both good guys - notice how much love they get on the board when JB is on as a guest? But if you are looking for hard hitting research and knowledge on each topic they discuss for only 90 seconds, you will be disappointed. That's very apparent based on their "44" comments yesterday but I have noticed it before on other subjects that I've followed fairly closely.

I'm honestly wondering if either Mike or Tony could name any other player to ever wear 44 at Syracuse. I'm guessing they wouldn't even be able to come up with Rob Konrad.

But they act like they're authorities on the tradition.

I love PTI

Throw in Michael Owens, and then I ask myself, was there any others who wore it who were really significant players for us, other than the 3 on SU's Football Mt. Rushmore? Who else is there, Mandel Robinson?
