The march up the Syracuse University hill took a different aura for the 7 p.m. start for the Orange’s game against North Carolina State two weeks ago. The lighting looked cool going up. And the fans looked ambitious on the way to it all.
As Syracuse prepares to take on formidable Clemson at noon today, I take you back to the walk down the hill from the Carrier Dome for my dear wife Karen and I one week ago. Syracuse beat Connecticut 51-21 inside. The sun agreed that Orange was the color of the moment. The moment spread gloriously…
The Saturday afternoon in the Carrier Dome started with a nice tribute to a Syracuse running back from the past. Joe Morris was back for a special moment. The running back who made the Orange go four decades ago had his family and friends and former teammates gathered at midfield for a big ceremony. His…
I will be working at the library’s annual book sale before heading out to the Syracuse football game against Connecticut at the Carrier Dome today. So my dear wife Karen and I were quite pleased to hear it when the start time was announced two weeks ago. (These mid-season decisions to please TV are tiresome,…
The day was bright, blue and full potential this mid-September Saturday in Syracuse, N.Y. The hometown Syracuse Orange football squad was 2-0 as fans climbed the hill to the Carrier Dome to ready for the contest against Atlantic Coast Conference rival Florida State. The fact that the Orange has not fared well against the Seminoles…
I spotted a sign of Orange support while walking with my colleagues during our break at the library. Up high, on the roof of The Retreat, between the beautiful white blooms. The Syracuse squad tackles Cornell in the first round of the men’s college lacrosse playoffs on Sunday in the Carrier Dome. There’s no doubt…
Hover over a gallery photo for a description. Click on an image for an enlarged slide show. It is a nice feeling to look in the fridge and realize that you have those craft beers that your co-workers gave you for your birthday ready to go for a Syracuse Orange game on TV. Yes, I…
The five-buck ticket was worth it. My fantastic daughter Elisabeth, her sensational significant George Three and I had a fine time for the season finale at the Carrier Dome Saturday afternoon. We started with a visit to the quad, watching a bit of the Pride of the Orange marching band and scoring some free chocolate…
How did I spend part of Thanksgiving 2017? Standing in a line at Destiny USA, part of a pre-Black Friday sales pitch. The folks at Syracuse University’s athletic department got into the action by announcing that a batch of season tickets would be part of the big bargain. Men’s basketball season tickets would go for…
The Syracuse Orange went with a different look for Saturday’s game in the Carrier Dome. Not the blue jerseys. Not the orange jerseys. For this important game against Wake Forest, the hometown squad put on the grays. My dear wife Karen and I thought they looked kind of sharp warming up for the game so…
