I find it odd that you can find links to all the negative coverage you cite, but not any of the exonerating stuff.Tom O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08739333020122709982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-64836079143796451312009-03-25T15:21:00.000-04:002009-03-25T15:21:00.000-04:00I respect a UConn fan that doesn't shoot low blows...I respect a UConn fan that doesn't shoot low blows at 'cuse players.<BR/><BR/>Though I have to say, despite my love of SU, Devo is a tool.<BR/><BR/>I've met him a couple times (he sometimes chooses to party in my home town instead of Syracuse) and he is an incredible tool.<BR/><BR/>I love him on the court, but can't stand him in person.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-43044336817704720832009-03-25T02:01:00.000-04:002009-03-25T02:01:00.000-04:00Nice post, BIAH.

Reminds me of Randolph Childress in that respect (also a notorious trashtalker). In fact, I think OU should be working right now to figure a way to take him out of the game, b/c I expect him to light them up this weekend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-82609598585516900262009-03-24T12:27:00.000-04:002009-03-24T12:27:00.000-04:00Yup. You nailed it pretty well. I might think Devo...Yup. You nailed it pretty well. <BR/><BR/>I might think Devo is a scrub, but the kid can ball. <BR/><BR/>I have no problem whatsoever with a bit of flare after sinking a big trey, and jumping on the scorers table after that shot should have been almost manditory. I have always thought that people dont do that nearly enough. <BR/><BR/>If I hit a game-winner,that would be the first place I go, standing three feet in the air, in front of the masses, bowing at my feet. I got goosebumps just thinking about it.<BR/><BR/>I think part of the reason he is so hated is because the majority of the people who are outspoken are other college kids who just watch the highlights or see the headlines. <BR/><BR/>We, the college bball fanatics watch him play tons of games a year and can see the descent qualities that stand out in him on the court.<BR/><BR/>Being a Georgetown fan I was born to hate the color orange and anyone who steps on the court wearing that color. I do acknowledge that Devo has talent, but come on, he plays for Syracuse.tmachirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15986175024794782978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038796146239392494.post-11018133414558985602009-03-24T02:03:00.000-04:002009-03-24T02:03:00.000-04:00Bravo you hate him for the right reasons.

I just hated having to play him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
