the guy gets so much press but he got outplayed and stripped at the end by a freshman. hope we don't have to read the tarhole whiners crying about the refs. it sure looked like offensive goaltending by may.nothing could be finer-i win my 5 unit halftime play and the heels lose. thay makes it 15-2 current duke run vs unc and 6-1 coach over ole roy.
rashid big game mccants

im still trying to figure out who is more annoying.
carolina fans or duke fans. will get back to you.

all this "we" this and "we" that. carolina fans crying about how duke fans whine. duke fans bitching about how carolina fans moan. did i miss the day when roy and coach K came in and offered some fellow madjackers scholarships and a chance to be part of the team? lol.
If i had only grown a foot taller and could run and shoot it may have been me...oh and if I could lose this beer gut...lol
dont think you ever see me talk about "we' in referring to duke game. i used we earlier meaning we at madjacks hearing about the refs giving duke the game. i have been a duke fan since 1962,i went to duke and i used to be an iron duke supporter. sorry if it offends you for me to talk about them but i do not object to the frequent verbose writeups about your favorite conference without complaining.gman2 said:

Sorry GMan, I was an All-American athlete at UNC who wore Carolina Blue and have gotten 3 degrees from here so I do feel like it's "we". I've got an individual and team ACC championship under my belt...so I do feel like it's "we". You're right, the basketball team could care less about me and what sport I played. But we share something...Carolina Athletics is a family, something you won't understand because you aren't part of it. "We" share the pride of representing and loving a school like UNC, to win with that NC on and to lose with it. To truly love a program in a way fans don't get to. That's what makes it "we".

Saint, I think it goes a step further. I've never understood referring to pro teams as "we", but whenever I watch the Badgers play, I'm seeing my alma mater. The teams are representing the school I was part of and graduated from and will always feel a connection with. So I'm with you on that one.
yikes. saint and lowell, you guys are way too sensitive. im just breaking balls.
lowell- sorry, but i dont have favorites conferences or favorite teams. just not my style to put the #1 foam finger on and get worked up over OTHER fans the way you guys do.
cheer for your school, do all the rah-rah shit.
but bitching about other schools fans is a little much
having said all that, you guys are still way too worked up over nothing. just busting stones.

F'ck duke. i loved the hurley,hills,davis,laettner, teams etc in the early 90's because i convinced myself they were "smarter" than their opponents......
well, a decade later, i am sick of duke not getting called for fouls in the paint. battier was one for sure to be spared often. i. maryland/arizona in '92.
reddick dribbles into a defender whoose back uis turned to the play - the defender (a forward/center) called for blocking..
i watched the game, and i am a memphis fan, not a carolina fan. the calls are pitiful for duke. sheldon williams is another player that does no wrong as well.
the gt game was crap as well. duke does not consistently get called for contact down low. no question. when they do they lose.period. ie indiana in the big dance a couple of yrs. ago.

Family?
Family?
"Carolina Athletics is a family"
I agree that if you are an alumn of a school it is ok to use "we".
But a family? Aks Matt Doh about that one.

If your father physically and mentally abused you, would you still consider him family? Don't talk about subjects that you have no idea about.

physical and mental abuse? i guess its who you believe. know some people who are privy to that information just like you are, and they think doherty was made out to almost be a pariah. which is bullshit. really not worth turning the conversation in that direction, but that one is truly a matter of who you ask and who you believe.

What is your opinion of USC fans?
I am rooting for UNC to win it all. GL to your team Saint!

So a discussion starts to determine who is more annoying - Tarheel fans or Duke fans.
Always competitive for a win, Tarheel fan goes to these two arguments:
"We are a family, you don't understand..." In context this says "we are better than you."
And also
"Don't talk about subjects you don't know about."
Based on this thread I would have to give the edge to the Tarheel fans. Tarheel arrogance is something I know plenty about.
And the whole, "if you only knew the whole story about what happened with Doh" thing is baloney.
The reailty is that this "family" will throw Doh, Deputy Dawg or anyone else under the bus to protect their program.

NO PROBLEM. SORRY FOR MY TONE IN RESPONSE BUT I WAS STILL RATHER EXCITED.LIVING IN THE TRIANGE IS ALMOST LIKE HAVING 3 GREEN BAY WISCONSINS WITHIN 20 MINUTES OF EACH OTHER. UNC AND STATE FANS HAVE 25 TIMES THE FANS HERE THAN DUKE SINCE SO MANY OF THE DUKE GRADS LEAVE THE SOUTH.I HAVE LIVED IN DURHAM AND CHAPEL HILL BUT RALEIGH SEEMS TO BE THE NICEST OF THE 3 PLACES TO LIVE. I DISLIKE MANY DUKE PEOPLE BUT I AM A LIFE LONG FAN. WHEN BUBAS WAS COACHING DUKE IN 1966 AND UCLA CAME TO PLAY DUKE I WAS THROWN OFF THE HIGH SCHOOL TEAM ONE FRI NITE FOR LISTENING TO THE DUKE GAME ON A TRANSISTOR RADIO, WHEN AS THE 6TH MAN THE COACH SAW ME GETTING EXCITED WHEN JACK MARIN OR MIKE LEWIS SCORED.OTHER THAN NASCAR THERE IS NOTHING BUT ACC SPORTS HERE. WE ARE TOO FAR FROM CHARLOTTE TO BE FANS AND THE HURRICANES HAVE NOT CAUGHT ON.BY THE WAY I THINK YOU WILL FIND MOST OF MY REPLIES ARE AFTER SOME OF THE HATEFUL AND VENOMOUS ATTACKS ON DUKE TEAM AND COACH. I WILL TRY TO REFRAIN FROM DOING SO IN THE FUTURE.GO TO HELL CAROLINAgman2 said:
