Geez, I'm Pleased, to say the Threes, brought W. Michigan to thier Knees

Reporting from Marietta, GA, Nachos and Jalapenos and Cheese in lap....

No Contest. I wonder if Western Michigan even knew what hit them. The game was close for about 5 minutes. Then Duke started raining 3s like rain in a big rain storm that accumulates record-setting rain. In fact, at one point, Bob Harris said Duke was taking "Target Practice" on Western Michigan.

Anyway, in short, Duke kicked their ass, winning by 40 or something, 110-70 or something like that. I mean, damn. And Seth Curry lit it up. Spicy! He had like 57 points or something.

After nearly every player for Western Michigan fouled out in the first half (actually none did but they came close), the refs took it easy on them and stopped calling fouls, even when they did. Pity. Mercy. Also, Western Michigan laid off the fouling quite a bit when they realized the rough play wasn't helping at all.

StainyRiver, #40, or whatever his name is/was for Western Michigan did okay but man, what an odd looking bird. Kind of a cross between Margaret Thatcher and Will Ferrell. Anyway, he played pretty well for them in the grand scheme but did miss a dunk. The Crazies let him know about it by chanting, "You can't dunk! You can't dunk!" It was funny. We all laughed. Seriously.

Anyway, Duke continued the absolute ass-whippin' and to be honest, the game was rather boring towards the end. But hey, we'll take that. Also, Miles got his hook shot blocked. Don't see that often.

Overall, a mighty fine game and Coach K was pleased by the performance. "We had a mighty fine game," said K, "and I'm pleased by my team's performance."

Duke improves it's Cameron Indoor Stadium winning streak to 42 and improves to 11-1 on the year.

Next game is againt Penn on New Year's Day (tomorrow) at 5:00 at Cameron. If Duke scores more points than Pennsylvania, they should be okay. Look for the next installment of "It Went a Little Like This..." tomorrow! The quality will be a little bit better, but hey, this counts!

I love you all,

I think I saw the same stuff you did. I do believe the part of 'Stainydrawers#40', was played by Seth Rogan in a pair o'goggles.
14 threes! Once it got to 13-6 count, I said, "The ass-whoopin' is coming up NOW". It did.

He wasn't fat, but his body he reminded me of Kenny Dennard. Today's Kenny Dennard, not the slim one of 1978. And that hair! Oh boy! Bozo anyone?

Watching his futile efforts trying to score from inside 3 feet reminded me of a freshman Brian Zoubek. He was padding his stats - 3 shots, 2 rebounds and still no bucket. Admittedly, he did much better in the second half.
