Schadenfreude

Oh my goodness, I love college football fans. And I love schadenfreude. This is Brent Axe, a, if not the, Syracuse football beat writer. Brent looks like an Italian guy, talks expressively and passionately like an Italian guy, but "Axe"?  Anyway, Axe does everything but take an axe and give forty whacks the head of “Orangemen" head man Dumbo Babers. Brent went 13 minutes before delivering the final blow and when he did it made my jelly belly shake.

                                               "Pittsburgh didn't even have their best player."

 


"Izzy Abanikanda, their best player, the best running back in the ACC, one of the best in the country...He didn't even..."


                                                         "...play."

Brent, I'm sorry, I'm not making fun of you, I understand the schaden of all 'Cuse fans, but I can't help it, you're delivery brought me mucho freude.
