You know the drill. I start ‘em, you finish ‘em. You don’t need to come up with all the unfinished answers, just write as many as you want.
1. It’s satisfying to break a record in Syracuse for something not related to snow.
2. I turn to mush when I see the Rautins crying on the sidelines at Senior Night.
3. They almost make me forget the Red Sox began spring training.
4. Because they play as a TEAM. And they bring an Orange smile to my face. Thanks Ken
5. Laugh at a guy who bought a 34 dollar ticket and could not see the court. Thanks Denny
6. They make Jimmy smile. Thanks Don
7. As for Don’s “making ‘Jimmy’ smile” — that’s an accomplishment for the ages. True, Cathy. Thanks
8. S.U. Basketball is the only thing that makes Syracuse winters bearable -and this team is the best of the best! Thank you Pat
9. They are a team and care about each other. Just seeing Andy Rautins and how far he has come. Thanks Carol
10. They started the season losing to LeMoyne and by the last home game they’re ranked #1 Yeah! Thank Denise

Good Mornin Maureen, Great night last night, it made SU fans very proud and in some times sad that some of our players are moving on. 1. Looking for friends in the crowd at the Villanova game and believing you saw them because they had a Orange Shirt on ! 2.Great to watch a team that is not rated at the begining of the year progrees to #1. 3.Laugh at a guy who bought a 34 dollar ticket and could not see the court. Now that is a real fan! 4.Listen to the pre game annoucers who aren’t really SU wise and then listen to the back peddaling talk about 3/4 the way through the game.( whoops better than they thought,I guess) 5. Just a great 2 hours for me and The War Department to enjoy a great local sports event. ( GO ORANGE )
Maureen-
We know the drill! Just a few:
1. They are a team with no “issues”
2. They love to smile…all of them…all the time…what a happy, infectious bunch
3. They make Jimmy smile
4. They make us all smile

Why we love this Orange TEAM? That’s just it, this is a true team! A joy to watch. No selfishness! They look for the best shot, not what’s best for the individual with the ball in his hand.
As for Don’s #3 — “making ‘Jimmy’ smile” — that’s an accomplishment for the ages.
Great comments. They are a team and care about each other. Just seeing Andy Rautins and how far he has come. I remember Leo’s first game and to see his tears last night. How proud those parents were. A good reason to get together with friends and enjoy a fun afternoon/night. Looking forward to Big East and NCAA. Jimmy hasn’t smiled so much since he was walking on Bourbon St. C.
They started the season losing to LeMoyne and by the last home game they’re ranked #1!
Yeah!
