I have a ton of washing to do. Maybe I should go to Washing-ton Square Park…read more This is a little unkempt park in a poor neighborhood Northwest of downtown Syracuse. They need to really clean it up and do a better job of collecting trash, because it looked a little bit like a garbage dump when I was here. Having said that all the green areas that we can get we will take and that is why I give it a 3.

As a local who left and returned for a good chunk of time, the presence of Deer Haven Park is…read more.. complicated. On one hand, I'm immensely grateful that the former Depot is gaining recognition as a historic site. The museum only tells a fraction of the area's rich history but still contains enough artifacts to spark plenty of discussion. The independent audio tour -- via tablet -- is a great feature. On the other hand, it still feels strange to focus so intensely on the white deer population. The tourist-y sheen is somewhat off-putting if you're from the area; you'll see what I mean if you browse the gift shop. That being said, I hope the park continues to maintain and protect the site. It's a vital part of local and national history.

Then I met with my trainer, Devon. At first it seemed too good to be true, everyone was so positive and supportive from just one meeting. Now after 8 months of going, I know it's just the people. When you join KW, you gain this amazing support system. The coaches and staff are absolutely amazing, empathetic and driven people. From the moment I started, people knew my name, always greeted me, and made me feel comfortable. It's really been life changing to have not only someone to keep me accountable to do my weekly workouts, but also to be flexible. As a mom of two toddlers I don't always have control over our schedules and if I have to change a workout last minute my coach is always responsive and ready to reschedule to make it work. No guilt trip, no negativity, just support and positivity every step of the way. The workouts are fun too. Thirty minute sessions of grind, and not as much cardio as one would think. I used to run and loved it, but I will say that was a worry for me. Our cardio comes in different, shorter bursts. Sometimes in the form of games or creative things, not just running or burpees, the boring things. I highly recommend this place for people who need flexibility and support when working on not only their physical, but also their mental and really overall health.

As someone who was born and raised on ACC basketball in North Carolina, I thought it was weird when…read moreSyracuse joined the ACC in 2013. I still remember the Denny's comment Jim Boeheim made to reporters when Syracuse visited Providence during the team's last season in the Big East. Full quote below: "We've been coming here for 34 years. That's a lot of history. Every one of these games is a little bit of sadness for me. I know where all the good restaurants are now, and now I've got to go down to Clemson, S.C. I'm sure there's a couple of Denny's down there. They'll like me a lot now in Clemson. I like to make friends before I get down there." Source: https://collegebasketball.nbcsports.com/2013/01/10/jim-boeheim-on-the-acc-im-sure-theres-a-couple-of-dennys-down-there/. Another quote from Boeheim regarding Syracuse leaving the Big East for the ACC: "We've played St. John's for 100 years, and we played them when I was in school. We would want to play St. John's definitely without question. Yes, we'd play Georgetown. No question we'd be open to playing those two schools for sure." Source: https://www.espn.com/blog/collegebasketballnation/post/_/id/35444/coaches-react-to-conference-shakeup. Syracuse played in the Big East from 1979 to 2013. They're a classic Big East team, but as college sports fans know, the landscape has changed. As an ACC fan, Georgia Tech alum, and Georgia Tech men's basketball season ticket holder, I'm used to seeing Syracuse as a conference member/opponent now. I've seen Boeheim and the Orange every time they've rolled through Atlanta. Syracuse is definitely one of the brand names in college basketball so the school's addition to the ACC, which in my biased opinion is the best conference in college basketball, was a smart move and a good fit. While Syracuse has won only one NCAA tournament championship - 2003 with Carmelo Anthony - the program currently ranks in the top 10 in NCAA Division I in several metrics: total victories, win percentage, NCAA tournament appearances, NCAA tournament wins, and Final Four appearances. At the time of writing this, only Kentucky, North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA, and Duke have earned more NCAA tournament bids than Syracuse. Indiana, Louisville, Villanova, and Notre Dame round out the top 10 (the Irish, somewhat surprising). Elite company. The most glaring difference between Syracuse and these other teams is these other teams have won multiple NCAA tournament championships. Jim Boeheim played basketball for Syracuse from 1963 to 1966, joined the program as an assistant coach in 1969, and was named head coach in 1976. He's still Syracuse's head coach today at age 76. The 2021-2022 season will be his 46th season as head coach of the Orange. Just a crazy number. Boeheim has shown no signs of slowing down. Under his leadership, the program has earned at-large berths in the last three NCAA tournaments with two Sweet 16 appearances including this most recent year (2021) as an 11-seed. Only fellow ACC coach, Mike Krzyzewski of the Duke Blue Devils, has more years coaching and more wins than Boeheim, all-time, among Division I head coaches. Boeheim's consistency is impressive and admirable. He's definitely one of college basketball's greatest coaches. He was inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 2005. A living legend, Syracuse, the ACC, and the college basketball world should enjoy Boeheim while he's still coaching. He could retire any day like Roy Williams seemed to suddenly do on April 1, 2021 (not an April Fools' joke). Coach K announced his retirement on June 2, 2021 - the 2021-22 season will be K's last.
