Syracuse Basketball

Syracuse basketball started yesterday with their first scrimmage and they won. I didn't get to watch it because I couldn't find it out here, at home its on Time Warner Sports Channel, maybe we have that here.. i don't know. So I got to hear all about the game from my dad, for some parts I was on the phone with him and he would give me the play by play but most the time he would just call me if something good happened.
There are supposed to be some really good freshmen coming in this year, a lot of top recruits. There are also some veteran players back, like Eric Devendorf and Andy Rautins, and some players that were injured last year are now able to play this year which is nice.
My whole family is crazy about Syracuse basketball, my grandpa for the longest time had season tickets, but now he just goes every once and a while with us.
My dad is so excited, he's already trying to plan out what games we want to get tickets to... but everyone wants to see different teams, like my dad wants to see them play nova, and my brother wants to see Marquette and the Georgetown game is on my birthday this year.. tough choices.

Wow, you guys must really like SU. It is great though that your whole family likes the same team, which can give you great opportunities to go to games because you know they want to see them play also.

It should be a good year for 'Cuse. They have some good young players and a number of great athletes. If they play defense and eliminate sloppy play, they could definitely make a run for the national title.
