Observation on Duke-haters
Johnny 18 March 2005 03:52:02
	Some Duke-haters not only hate Duke, but hate anyone who likes Duke. Now that is a paranoid phobia in the 1st degree. --Johnny <=Doesn't hate anyone, just likes some better than others and leaves the lesser-liked alone if they leave him alone.

OK, here's what Donnie was trying to say. No one on this group "hates" anyone else because of the team they support. Generally speaking, for the last couple of years the people here have gotten along pretty well. We will have spirited debates, and matters can get a bit touchy a time, but threads here generally do not devolve into massive flame wars. Even the comments directed towards Larry and Harry are less borne of "hatred" and more mere annoyance. If you hung around here for a while, you'd notice this. It wasn't always this way, but it is now. The key to enjoying yourself here is to lighten up. This is not a serious forum and no one's life or liberty is on the line here, so you don't need to get all worked up about how everybody hates the team you root for and by extension hates you. That said, I do hate Donnie. Or maybe that emotion I'm feeling is jealousy? A few dozen hours in his TV room during the first few rounds of the tournament could probably help me figure that out. How about it Donnie? - geoff

Harry Everhart 17 March 2005 07:52:09 [ permanent link ]
	Harry seems to be No. 1 on that list at present. At least I am number 1 at something - just like Duke is number 1 in the ACC winning 6 out of the last 7 REAL championships! This year UNC will be number 1 in the number of players that enter the NBA draft. Next year they will be number 1 in the number of players that go from a "pretend prison" to a "real prison." For the record Harry does not hate anyone - on this group or anywhere. Life is too short to hate anyone. Mohammed Ali said "I got no beef with those Vietnamese." It is amazing how many people will hate something based on what the media tells them. Harry is just too excited waiting for the NCAA games to start tomorrow. Do you know what is best about the NCAA playoffs - 63 LOSERS! Go Duke! Go Donnie! Go Starheel! Go to h*ll Carolina! Love Harry

I guess I see your problem now. You think anyone that debates you hates you. I honestly have no problem with you nor Harry. I don't agree with too terribly much of what either of you say, but that doesn't mean I hate you. You may want to take a look at the inner self if you want to dissect some insecurities. shrug --Donnie -- Donnie Barnes http://www.donniebarnes.com 879. V.

Charlie Board? Seriously, there are few schools not represented here by at least one seriously annoying poster. The question to ask yourself is "Am I that poaster?" Fortunately for you dookies, even if you are a bad one, there are so many more that someone's bound to be worse In other news, Sparty is playing Old Dominion Friday. I think either of those would be a great name for a beer. Cheers! Good luck to all, unless your team is playing mine, and then it's "Good luck, but not quite enough of it". Drew

I hate Duke as a basketball entity, but I don't personally hate Duke fans. However, based on your postings here, I have formed the opinion that you're really lame and mundane. JB

Keep in mind that something is starting Thursday that will result in 64 losers. There is only one winner of the NCAA tournament - that means that most of us will be sad before this is all over. Then it's all over until next fall. Kind of puts it all in perspective.

Johnny - There a lot of real tough guys like you on the newsgroups - because they can be tough hiding behind a keyboard. Do you really think "not backing down from punks" calling them names is macho? No - finding out their address and going to meet them personally and punching them in the nose - that is macho. I live at 1607 Seminole Drive, Tallahassee, FL - come on over - I have a really big nose - almost like Rudolph I doubt that I will have many visitors - by the way - I am an old guy lacking wisdom too If "ad hominem" means what I think it means - you should see my wife - she could turn any guy "not ad homiem." Lighten up - bro - stop woofing from the porch. Love and Kisses - Harry

Won't be the first time I was skipping out of a reception to check scores during the NCAAs. At least this time I'm not in the wedding party. Drew

Both had similar schedules and finished one game apart in the conference. And since the voting is done before the tournament, you can't count UNC's one extra win from there. Maybe it was because the hype wasn't there later in the season for Wake Forest (ever since the Illinois loss). UNC does have more talent on their squad than Wake Forest does (both are very talented though), so that should balance out the one game difference. I mention the talent, because the award is frequently awarded to the coach who is perceived to have "overachieved" the most. -- reverse email to reply

Perhaps it is because UNC won the ACC Regular Season Championship and Wake didn't. While I agree you typically have to overachieve, the fact is Skip neither overachieved nor underachieved. And he didn't win anything. Hence major voting swing on a not-so-major difference. shrug I'm surprised K didn't get more votes than he did, personally. --Donnie -- Donnie Barnes http://www.donniebarnes.com 879. V.

Coach of the Year for Roy - perhaps because a banner year for UNC is when they have a home on home split with a Duke cinderella rebuilding team that was stripped by the NBA. A banner year for UNC because they beat the 2005 ACC Champs by two at the smith center. I think they gave the same award to Doherty - the year he split with Duke. Coach of the Year for playing an unbalanced schedule that required them to not play home on home with the ACC powers. Meanwhile K beats Carolina 15 out of 18 times - wins the real ACC championship 6 out of 7 times - and this year takes a rag tag bunch of upstarts to the win the 2005 ACC title. The Coach of the Year in the ACC is a beauty contest. K did not get the award because he looks like a "rat." Harry

I'm surprised K didn't get more votes than he did, personally. He probably would have won it had Duke won the ACC regular season. Frank Haith probably deserved some votes. I read somewhere that Miami improved more than VaTech did. -- reverse email to reply
