Letter to the Editor: Syracuse fans are like Yankee fans

To the Editor:

Kudos to the Syracuse men's basketball team. Wonderful, exciting season.

Forty-thousand Marathon Men's T-shirts sold! It just reinstates my belief that Syracuse basketball fans are like New York Yankees fans. Winning, love 'em; losing, hate 'em.

I wonder how many T-shirts a couple of years ago that said 'Pray for the Journey to the Tourney' would have sold? I expect to see people washing their cars with Marathon Men T-shirts, or at yard sales, or as Halloween costumes.

Once again, Syracuse basketball, thanks. Lets hope a lot of people don't fall off the wagon!

Why would anybody think anybody should love losers?
