Around SBN: In Crunch Time, Spurs Don't Change Their Game

Do Your Part...Prevent Further Chipotle-Related Disasters

Syracuse has won 30 games when Chiptole was not consumed in mass quantities the days before a game.

Syracuse is winless every time they have gorged on naturally-raised pork and barbacoa which has been marinated for hours in one of Chipotle's many establishments.

FACTS.

We got lucky in Buffalo, there were no Chipotle's nearby.  However, SLC is a different story.  There's four well within driving distance to the arena.  I don't blame the guys and their inability to reject the fresh, natural ingredients that await inside those doors.  I've done everything I can to help, attempting to curry favor with the Gods.  But I'm putting the rest of this on you, Syracuse fans who will be in Salt Lake City this week.  You need to step it up and help prevent a disaster. 

Sure, I could ask you to form a human chain around each Chipotle but that's just not an efficient usage of our time.  Plus, I'm sure you want to go sight-seeing at some point.  Instead, I'm asking for one simple favor.  It's a small gesture but it will make an immense impact towards saving our team, our season and our sanity.

I want you to head to the nearest Chipotle to your hotel and hand out the below flyer to every employee.  Hell, even hand it to the customers.  Just in case.

Do your part, SU fans.

Wow, you are a genius.

And evil genius, so I’m really glad you’re on our side.

by prohibiting chipotle, you may just encourage them

andy is the team’s unquestioned leader, but he will make errors of judgment that we must accept as part of the growing process; i.e., the plaid jacket, the faux-hawk, crispy tacos, and now the soul patch. with scoop, you can take the boy out of the ihop, but you can’t take the ihop out of the boy. these are just human frailities that cannot be mitigated by taking control of the commanding heights of the team’s collective diet.

let them eat chipotle. better a fajita burrito than a triple decker liverwurst sammich on white bread with bacon, mayo and onions. . (just have a sensible salad and stay hydrated, fellas).

The Church of Latter Day Saints

forbids the Sale of Pork and Chorizo to African Americans.

See:

"I rejoice in the day when my mortal shall put on immortality, and shall stand before him; then shall I see his face with pleasure, and he will say unto me: Come unto me, ye blessed, therefore I ban the sale of my lords sheep and swine to the Colored folk since this is a place prepared for you in the mansions of my Father." Joseph Smith 1:27

Andy, you’re ok.

Have No Fear

I live in SLC and those “4” are no where even close to the arena or where they will be staying, there are so many other places that they will most likely eat at before there, so no worries

Excellent news

Shouldn't we then extend this

to fans as well? Why should we be hypocrites? Maybe after we win the title we can hold a celebration at Chipotle.

Seriously, we should all be expected to give it up for 2 weeks. Gotta make sacrifices to win a title sometimes.

Without Gerry McNamara we wouldn't have won 10 f-- games, not 10

Travelling at tourney time

They won’t have a whole lot of time to be hitching rides to Chipotle on game days. It’s pretty restrictive on those trips aside from off days.

Be glad they aren’t at the home of Chipotle, Denver. There’s one every few blocks here!

Stand outside EVERY Chipotle you come across.

If you see Scoop/Wes/Kris or anyone else, don’t let them in.

where are SU fans going to be?

Don’t know the bars around there the arena, but Utah has done away with the majority of their odd liquor laws…The Bayou on S. State Street has good food and 500 beers. At least 1 SU fan will be there pre and post game!

Actually...

There is a chipotle in on Niagara Falls Boulevard, the team’s just finally learning to make sacrifices to be champions, like not eating 3 pounds of burrito before the game.

One of the key contests in Syracuse's march to the national championship in 1959 was a titanic clash with unbeaten Penn State on Nov. 7, 1959 in University Park, PA. The Nittany Lions were ranked No. 7 and the Orangemen No. 4. 

The 20-18 victory propelled Syracuse to the No. 1 in both the AP and UPI polls which they held for the remainder of the season to claim the consensus National Championship. This is the Universal Newsreel account of that contest.
