How to Grow an Orange: The Right Way to Brainwash Your Child Into Becoming a Syracuse Fan (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482506112)

Born and raised in Central NJ just 20 minutes from Rutgers, it's a miracle that Sean Keeley never became a Scarlet Knight fan. Then again, no one in New Jersey even began rooting for Rutgers until 2004 so it's a moot point. Sean graduated Syracuse in 2000 with a double major in Marketing & Entrepreneurship and if there's any advice he can give, it is...don't do that. Major in something creative. Write. Paint. Dance. Emote. Unless you're going to be a doctor or an accountant, your major is irrelevant. His favorite Syracuse-related sports moments while at SU are storming the field after the '98 Virginia Tech win, storming the court after beating Georgetown and awkwardly making eye contact with Donovan McNabb one time on the South Campus shuttle. After college, Sean moved out to LA and started up a Syracuse blog called Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician. Four years later, it's the No. 1 independent Syracuse blog, attracting over 200K unique visitors a month. Sean's writing has appeared on ESPN.com, FoxSports.com, CBSSports.com, Deadspin.com and Syracuse.com. He is also a frequent guest on various Syracuse radio sports-talk shows. Sean currently lives in Seattle with his wife, Lucy, who doesn't care about Syracuse sports.
