NEW YORK, NY - MARCH 08: The Syracuse Orange bench reacts after a three pointer late in the game against the Connecticut Huskies during the quarterfinals of the Big East Men's Basketball Tournament at Madison Square Garden on March 8, 2012 in New York City. (Photo by Jim McIsaac/Getty Images)

We already know that divorced Syracuse parents need to make it clear how their children will continue to be reared as Little Oranges.

But what about when the marriage begins? Especially when a Syracuse Orange is doing some as drastic and insane as marrying one of the Connecticut Huskies.

You come up with a rooting interest pre-nup, that's what. (via Mike Waters...)

Ashley is currently expecting her first child, a boy due this month. So when it came time for Ashley’s baby shower, she and Amber quickly decided on the party’s theme: Syracuse basketball.

There was just one hurdle. Ashley’s husband, Shawn Moody, is a Connecticut fan.

Crossman said her husband agreed to let her raise their son as an Orange basketball fan. But Moody had his own conditions.


Crossman, a fan of the Miami Dolphins and Atlanta Braves, had to agree that Moody could teach their son to be a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles and Boston Red Sox.

Syracuse fans are the Edward The Longshanks to UConn's Scots. If we can't get you out, we'll breed you out.

And Ashley, if you need any pointers, I know a great book...
