In reply to: VoB 's message, "I Hate HC Basketball" on 13:26:38 01/12/06 Thu

The Bucknell fans that regularly post on Crossports know that that they are: 1. welcome on our board with an appreciation for the perspective and insights they bring and 2. though there may be a few examples to the contrary, the vast majority of Crusader fans want to see other Patriot League schools, including Bucknell, do well except when they play Holy Cross. Hopefully, Bucknell fans feel the same way - pride in our league affiliation.

When Patriot League teams succeed, it reflects well on all of us.

I don't post here often enough to know VoB's angle but is he/she possibly just trying to stir up some discussion?

VoB rarely posts and obviously was trying to stir up trouble. As you can see from the responding posts, it was pretty unanimous that VoB is clueless.

137, you're one of the regular Crossports posters I was referring to that enhance and improve our discussions.

Every school in the Patriot League, and all their teams, deserve respect as I noted during the CSTV commercials the reference to, not "student-athletes," but "scholar-athletes" in the Patriot League. Our players actually attend classes, take exams and, most importantly - graduate.

So, we should root for our team and have some good-natured ribbing - but with respect. Recognizing there will always be some exceptional cases, the majority show respect for each other.

Good luck to the Bucknell basketball team - I hope they win every other game this year except for the ones they play against Holy Cross.
