Subject: The "big story" hit the Bona Board about two hours ago.

I'd follow Basketball anywhere ... except Olean -- JAC, 10:31:23 03/15/05 Tue [3] (206.159.160.150)
Nice article on SBU and Olean from the Fordham student newspaper!

I got into Olean about three hours before the game so I decided to grab a bite to eat at a local Applebees, harmless enough. Or so I thought. I proudly requested a table for one, at which point the waitress remarked, “Are you really here by yourself? That is so sad.” I smiled, and thought “Do you really live in Olean , that is so sad.”

Well, aside from this young man being totally ignorant on a number of levels, his story was very poorly written. Also, I got a kick out of his dig at the "obese" people in Olean. If you checked out his picture, it's easy to see that this young man hasn't looked in the mirror recently. (NT) -- The Ghost of Kenny McFarland, 11:42:45 03/15/05 Tue (69.170.203.50)
This guy is a journalism major? What was the point of his story? It sounded something like, "I am from Westchester or Fairfield County and I live a pretty pampered and priviledged life. Whoa are those poor people in Olean. My team finally has a winning record after 15 years." What a shmuck! (NT) -- Bona93, 12:22:38 03/15/05 Tue (208.207.95.30)
