Re: UNC's season gets off to a flying start.

Edit to this post since point was brought up OY. K has only had to boot anyone for academic reasons. But he did it. Cut has booted a few players. (Don't piss on Cutcliffe's Wheaties!) It isn't a well known fact, and he wasn't a scholarship player, however, the "legendary" Patrick Davidson was boote...

Re: Recruiting: Class of 2011

I believe Quinn Cook will ultimately be a Blue Devil. Quincy Miller will probably go to Louisville or Baylor. Cook is a solid point guard who really played great this past summer on the Gold Medal winning USA U17 team where he started every game and averaged 7.5 points and 7.4 assists per game: http...

Re: Here we go again

Three times I sent a PM to a mod and asked that my pitchforks be removed as I didn't want to be in Junior High School anymore. I just didn't want to play the popularity game. All three times the mod said it would be done. It never was. So I quit. I have no idea which DBR Moderators :Police: told yo...

Wonder how far down the inevitable infraction points will send me. Okay, I'll skate out onto thin ice and risk being sent for a swim.

Re: John Feinstein is an idiot.

The defense is improving week to week evidenced by total yards and points yielded trending down the last two weeks. Duke can and will win in the ACC. After years of ineptitude, the only way to shut up Feinstein and his ilk is by winning. We will win in a couple more years. Everyone must keep the fai...

Points: I'll take the over on 65(combined, of course).

Any others?
I'll take the under on 65. My prediction is Duke 34 - Army 27 for a total of 61 points.

Re: Breaking Down Army (Duke's 4th Opponent)

A quick fact: over the first three games we've rushed for 467 yards. Over the first three games of 2009, we rushed for 184 yards. That is a > 250 percent improvement. Desmond Scott and Josh Snead need to see more carries against Army and Maryland. These next two weeks are both must win games and I s...

Weird thing you are NOT supposed to do here: As you walk down the street, you are not supposed to eat nor drink. You must stop; only then may you drink something from your bottled drink.

One more thing I thought of, if you are out and about walking, checkout a department store (Seiyu,Seikaya) and head down to the basement. Most department stores have a grocery store in the basement and most of the grocery stores have an extensive selection of already cooked food. It is a nice option...
