Re: Duke Hating, Passive-Aggressive Style

I believe Forrest Gump said, "Stupid is as stupid does." That's where I would put the writer of the Fox article and his opinions. During the Miami game, I thought the refs were going to GIVE the game, not to Duke, but to Miami with their horrible officiating. And, by the way, Duke earned every game ...

Re: DUKE BLUE DEVILS--ACC CHAMPIONS!!

Another "sighting" that I almost forgot about. The "between games" dinners on Friday...after dining with the Dukies, some folks "party hopped" around the coliseum venues to visit friends from other schools. When they "came upon" the tarhole "party site," the tables were set up, the food was out...an...

Re: DUKE BLUE DEVILS--ACC CHAMPIONS!!

Probably was a murlin sign...it only had four-letter words and that's about the vocabulary capacity of their fans.

Re: DUKE BLUE DEVILS--ACC CHAMPIONS!!

Our Duke flag waves year round. We change it when it wears out but only in the "off" season so we don't jinx a team! Three signs I forgot to include: (1) Fear the Beard (and it had Zoubek's number 55 on it!!!) (2) Hurricane has become a tropical storm. Followed by- (3) Hurricane is now a tropical de...

Re: DUKE BLUE DEVILS--ACC CHAMPIONS!!

Thanks for the Spanish quote! That's what the sign said! From my center court seat in Cameron, I claim each and every Blue Devil as MINE and OURS! Now...off to the YMCA to work out in my ACC Champions tee shirt! It will be nice to sense an absence of the faded blue shirts today. And I doubt that "th...

Re: Duke Vs the NCAA

So what do Greg and Seth know? Sometimes sports guys have to act surprised!!!! They can't just be "ho hum," you know! And then there's Hubert who declared the tarholes would beat Duke on Saturday, March 6. Guess he's still scraping the egg off his face.

Re: DUKE BLUE DEVILS--ACC CHAMPIONS!!

Just got home from Greensboro. First thing you need to know is this: The championship game today was like a home game in Cameron. It was wonderful! Of course the WIN was also great...and Georgia Tech has talent. Remember they beat us in Atlanta. Today they simply would NOT go away. The signs in the ...

Off to Greensboro

A local sports writer "tells" me I should cheer for the tarholes and for NC State tonight or tomorrow's "roster" will be like Passover on Tobacco Road. That's what HE said...not what I said. Sorry, Mr. Writer. I don't cheer for either...though State MAY get a clap or two from me IF they do something...

Re: Pictures Galore

I LOVE the picture of the "not-priceless" group of tarholes. I must say there were fewer people infiltrating CameronSaturday night than usual. I guess when your team is in the tank, there's no reason to beg, borrow, steal or pay $2000 for a ticket.

Re: Status Check

Just watched the game on DVR and, by golly, the calls the refs missed were the ones I was correct in "making." But I won't be applying for a referee's job because that would mean leaving Ima and August West alone in Section 14. I am waiting for the tarhole "fans" to "get in my face" tomorrow when I ...

Re: Welcome to our 100th member, pinkbend!

Thanks, CathyCA. The fat pink devil is just "me!" I can't remember where I found it, but I did inscribe "Devil Pinky" on her tummy or chest (if there is a difference on this fatty!)

Re: Welcome to our 100th member, pinkbend!

Speak for yourself, Amy, about why we don't do the back flips as cheerleaders. MY excuse is that I can't climb out of my center court seat over a gazillion people to get to the court in time to perform.

Re: Welcome to our 100th member, pinkbend!

Thanks for the welcome notes! Having almost recovered from the Turtles, I am heading to Durham after lunch to get ready to watch the Blue Devils send Ole Roy back to Chapel Hill with another headache. My friend Amy and I will coach, referee and sometimes play tonight. We'll work as hard as those on ...

Re: Duke vs md

How can anyone like a Maryland player? They're all tainted by what they did to the Boozers who were two of "their own." And add to that the fact that fans stood behind Bob Harris yelling the "F" word. But I guess those fans are long gone, huh? Yeah...right. Well, those players are long gone. I didn'...
