ESPN Page 2 - Jackson: Staying Melo
There's something about Carmelo Anthony that seems to connect with people. Maybe it's because of the way he plays -- fearless, smooth in spots, but smash when it's called for. Maybe it's because he doesn't look like he's been hewn from stone; he has ...

Who should go up on the Carrier Dome's walls next?
I've been reading around the SU blogs that the University of Texas is preparing to retire Kevin Durant's number and that, to some of the Orange bloggers, that makes no sense. While I can understand their points of view, I do not agree with them, at least not entirely.

Team USA's scrimmages set
Even if Team Canada is out of contention to go to the Olympics Syracuse fans will still get to see them in action, meaning you will see Andy Rautins play. But I think the SU fan base is going a bit happier because Team Canada will be part of a five game exhibition series that Team USA (with ex Orange Carmelo Anthony and SU head coach Jim Boeheim) will be playing before heading to Bejing.
