He's somewhat right. At the game against Ohio State, it got pretty quiet, even when Cornell rallied to tie it up.
In the same vein of the "let's have some coordination!" thread, many times the Sun and its writers have a tendency to prophesize on what it really means to be a fan, and why the reading public is doing it incorrectly. Over my 4 years I've been "taught" countless times how to cheer properly, which events I should be attending if I really want to support Cornell, and other such lessons.
I'm not sure why there's so much written on it. Although from articles I've seen in other Ivy League publications, we don't have the only paper that does it. It seems like the prevailing theme at schools like ours is, "When in doubt (or without a column idea), write about fan apathy."
I'll leave it at that...my point is just similar to the one in the other thread. Now I'm just hoping the weather doesn't wreck havoc on the drive up from LI tomorrow. My first game since WMU...looking for that elusive first home win. Let's Go Red!!
The Sun just is full of whiners in general, honestly.
As is the S.A. ;-)...
but yes, I agree about the Sun too. I actually know the kid who wrote that article, and I plan to give him a talking to ;-).

ooooohhhhh, delta agreed with me......
but yes, in general, the sun is written by people who love to hear themselves talk even more then those who post to eLF (me included) yet have nothing of value to say
just like the current SA, and past members (me included)
