You are a miserable lot

[UpstateSM]

If we’re all dumb enough to care so much that we post on this message board it would be weird if we weren’t miserable about the basketball program

I’ve noticed a lot of my posts have the dumbest mistakes when I use my iPad. I’d love to pile on due to the take in this but I’d be pummeled into submission on my posts. Haha

It’s cheap likes for me, which helps me overcome my misery.

Trust me if this team were good I would in the front lines defending the wall, doing S-Curve threads, etc.

Syracuse basketball needs an optimism infusion. The problem is the status quo is mediocre and that is the worst spot to be in sports.
Being terrible atleast accelerates change.
Mediocrity doesn’t.

Are we a plucky middle of the road team happy with double digit sweet 16s or are we a team that expects to compete at the top of the conference.

Good thing Syracuse football has been good the last few years. We wouldn’t have anything good happening.

Also not the worst thing I've been called this week, so, I guess, win?

Current level of grumpiness:

Problem that I see is we’ve become accustomed to middle of the pack regular seasons and squeaking into the tourney. The writing seems to be on the wall that that might not be the case this year. So yeah, we’re miserable.

Small green shoots for me:

Beat duke once
Beat BC when I’m there
Make a fun spirited run in the ACC

If other wins pile up and the back door to ncaa creeps open I’ll be happiest but the 3 above will satiate me for now

Yes my expectations are not high but I still enjoy the games and SU

... but I'd still have a drink with all of you. CHEERS.

Because misery loves company?
