Saw Jim Baron the other day and he was proud to annouce Jimmy Jr. has signed a lucrative contract with Turkish side, Mercin. Most of European clubs look at stats and Jimmy had them in scoring and shooting. He should have a good career over there; too bad he never suited up for the Brown and White. At least we don't have to worry about him again. -- TM

Why hang the moniker "Midnight Jr" on Baron's son? It wasn't young Baron's fault his father decided to leave St. Bona for greener pasture. You should really blame that no good, rotten, self-serving president of the school and his pompous son! There, the true enemy of our beloved school. Baron did what most people would do when they became "persona non grata" , he left! Now Baron Jr. has a shot at pro ball in Europe. I certainly will wish Jimmy all the best in his conquest to play in Turkey. I kind of figured he would not be playing in the NBA as he is a liability on defense. When Temple wanted to score in a close game against Rhody they always went to whoever Baron was guarding. Baron Sr. finally became wise and removed his son. God Bless you Jimmy Baron Jr! Play your heart out amd make that Turkish Club team...

Clearly you don't have a clue what you are talking about. I believe Fro was anti-Bonaventure, or at the very least, anti-Baron. It's laughable that you think Fro is Nordender. Many people say that they grew up on the Bonnies, but Nordender's experience was much more than just attending every home game. He literally did grow up around the Bona basketball team and probably has more stories and experiences around the Bonnies than you could ever dream. So lay off the accusations and do your homework next time before you type.

I didn't want to respond to this thread but I will any way. Norender is Norender. He doesn't post under any other names. In fact I saw Norender at Mass a few weeks ago as well as the Festa Italiana.
Say what you will about Norender but I know him as true to Olean, especially North Olean, his family, his heritage, friends and specifically the Bonnies.
Yes, without getting into specifics, Norender has many first hand stories about the Bonnies. He has many worthwhile and enviable connections. Norender, don't let'em bring you down. I hope you enjoyed your visit back home.

Thanks Friar! I have never posted under any name except Nordender! When people get hostile to me or anybody else I simply avoid them. Friar knows well how many ignorant knuckle heads there really are in this world as he deals with them all the time in politics. You are a better man than I because with me there would be no holding back as you must do from time-to-time in the political arena. I have been very fortunate in life to grow up around the Brown Indians since the early (late 60's) days. Then to be around for the NIT run in '77 was very special. The best part of all those experiences was my father. He always brought me along for practices and many road games. The unknown facts he now shares with me as an adult are priceless! This past summer we sat outdoors for hours during my visit home. For my dad to open up and share his Bonas experiences with me is truly priceless! He has taught me much about life in general. Already can't wait 'till next year at the Festa Italiana. How was the lawn fete up on the hill Friar? I saw you and your family at mass and at the Festa. You have a lovely wife and family, be proud!

Thanks Pepp! I do apreciate you setting this person straight. I have no reason to fabricate or attack anybody on this board. I have always loved St. Bonaventure and always have been a fan of it's teams, good or bad. I see that this is only your third post Pepp. Don't let the negative people ever influence you on this board and thank you again for setting the record straight!

Norender: give it a rest on two counts.....Wick is dead and buried and who gives a hoot about the Barrons who couldn't get out of town fast enough and yet have been elevated to god like status by locals like you ....

`Couldn't agree more Bona84! Am I still a local after living in Olean for my first 18 years then living around the world for the past 32? Seems our compadre "ganyguy" doesn't know it's own gender. That explains it's need to lash out and attack others without even getting it's facts straight. Life in that village of "gany" must be pretty depressing for our mixed up poster.
