Shouldn't Syracuse be good enough that they aren't in position to lose on a last second shot to a lessor team at home?

On a side note, anybody need a patent attorney?

It's very far from familiar. Cleveland State is a good team (7-4) that has been close in games against k-state and UWV. We lost to a winless team that hasn't even played a home game. Cleveland State would destroy us.
The worst part is that we haven't even played any real teams yet this season so there's absoutely no chance of improvement.

Well, your last statement is wrong - my guess is that Faye DOES play, therefore making the team instantly better - but let's not get away from what's important here:
I can't stand Syracuse and the overrated Jim Boeheim, and love seeing them lose.

And why does everyone think Faye will make this team any better?

Because they can't get any worse?

Overrated or not, Jim Boeheim won a national championship. He also has been to two other national championship games (1987 and 1996) and won more than 700 games. He certainly didn't do this because he stunk at it.
I'm not a big fan of his either but you have to give him his due.

Yeah, and 6 against 5 will be a great advantage.

Carmelo Anthony won that championship.
Boeheim has had a bunch of good players and done nothing until Anthony got there.
(Have to admit, that youtube clip Calallen posted is funny. Not safe for work, though.)

No it isn't safe for work. I always find it safer to wait until being at home before watching anything on Youtube.
