Is that one of the Baldwin brothers scowling outside of Dinosaur BBQ with a bunch of guys working off a hangover after the Orange drilled Maine?
Well, of course it is. Syracuse is where dreams become reality.
As detailed on Friday, this was my first CNY pilgrimage to the Dome for a football game in a decade. However, astute reader Jason pointed out my column was fundamentally flawed. I was not 0-8 since ’99 attending SU football games. I was actually, 1-8 – having traveled to South Bend for the upset win over Notre Dame in ’08, simply known as “The Groobers Thanksgiving Miracle.”
Nonetheless, the D.A. Road Trip record is now a robust 2-8 (we picked up TWO full games over the weekend) after the thrashing of the Black Bears.
It should be noted, the feeling inside the Carrier Dome was that I had dragged my dark football karma inside the building. Maine plowed towards two touchdown drives in the first half to take a 14-7 lead, making the supposedly sturdy Orange defense look shaky at best. The “strength of the team” allowed the Bears to resemble the Chicago or Cal variety, not Maine. I should take most of the blame there.
Despite the scary early returns, the Orange settled down and romped in the second half allaying the horrifying fear that The March to Six Wins would take a devastating hit on Saturday night.
On this third weekend of September, 2010 – here’s what we learned.
#1) ‘Cuse college living is still the dream: Team Fizz Conroy and Couzens inherited a Syracuse-themed Beirut table and full bar inside their three bedroom apartment on Sumner. FTW.
#2) The Carrier Dome coney is still snappy and spicy and retardedly delicious.
#3) Varsity wings haven’t lost a step since 1929 and nothing gets Orange Nation more fired up than an upside-down Akron flag.
#4) The TKE house may be the only fraternity in America with a pair of house ducks named after rap legends. “Snoop Duck” and “DUCKtor Dre” seemed very content in their brown box. Syracuse University, 40k per year. Mom and dad must feel like their really getting their money’s worth. Good dudes. Great ducks.
#5) Dropping Ernie Davis Hall on the front lawn of Dellplain is a brilliant architectural idea. How many new buildings can we shoehorn into a six-block radius? SU admin is soon going to green light a new dorm built within the Dome’s air ducts.
#6) The 24-hour McDonald’s on Erie Blvd. is the site of more Big Mac-on-Big Mac crime after 3 a.m. than any other Mickey D’s in the country.
#7) Orange bloggers always rep well.¬†Ran into Brian Harrison from the Orange44 blog at Faegan’s postgame. Great dude. Bought me a few pints. At least I think he did. It was Hour 13 of the Saturday bender. It may have been George Harrison for all know.
#8) At least two of the five Baldwin brothers are within a five-mile radius of downtown Syracuse at all times (it’s written into their parole agreements). Daniel and Steven (pictured) were at Dinosaur BBQ Sunday afternoon. When Kauf and Dr. BS asked Stevie for a picture, he politely responded, “Guys, I really have to go to the bathroom. Let’s do it after.”
And we did.  The March to Six Wins continues. Good dudes. Great ducks. Two Baldwins.

My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any help would be really appreciated!
I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Excellent site you have here but I was wanting to know if you knew of any message boards that cover the same topics talked about here? I’d really like to be a part of online community where I can get advice from other experienced individuals that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks a lot!
I was curious if you ever considered changing the structure of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my apple ipad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!
With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of exclusive content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my permission. Do you know any methods to help reduce content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.

Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
My spouse and I absolutely love your blog and find almost all of your post’s to be just what I’m looking for. can you offer guest writers to write content to suit your needs? I wouldn’t mind producing a post or elaborating on some of the subjects you write about here. Again, awesome web log!
This design is wicked! You definitely know how to keep a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really loved what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
This fact is among the actual highest quality business site I actually have always visitied. the details are actually really good.
I’m not sure why but this website is loading extremely slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or is it a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
Neat blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your theme. Cheers

Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say you have done a awesome job with this. Additionally, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Chrome. Excellent Blog!
Hey there superb website! Does running a blog such as this require a great deal of work? I have virtually no expertise in coding however I had been hoping to start my own blog in the near future. Anyways, should you have any suggestions or techniques for new blog owners please share. I know this is off subject nevertheless I simply wanted to ask. Thanks!
Thanks for the marvelous posting! I actually enjoyed reading it, you might be a great author.I will remember to bookmark your blog and will eventually come back down the road. I want to encourage you continue your great work, have a nice afternoon!
Hello there! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? With thanks
Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no back up. Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?
An really intriguing read, I may possibly not agree completely, but you do make some very valid points.
Thank you so significantly regarding giving me personally an update on this theme on your internet page. Please realize that if a new post becomes available or if any modifications occur towards the current publication, I would be considering reading a whole lot more and focusing on how to make great usage of those approaches you reveal. Thanks for your efforts and consideration of other individuals by creating this web site available.
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
