Has anybody seen the new ESPNU commercial yet?

I saw that the other day, and while it is cute, I didn't like the implications that those guys never studied. Made Duke student athletes seem too much like other schools' student athletes.

I think that's the proper placement of the " ' "

Yea, I especially didn't like the final quote about Elton Brand carrying rocks in his backpack. I mean, come on, most of those textbooks I had were AT LEAST as heavy as rocks. ;)

I think it's funny Shane Battier jumped the walkway to the library AND Boozer used to walk the "other" way under that same walkway with his backpack full of lead weights. In fact, I think pretty much the entire commercial is set within 100 ft. of the library.

That commercial is hilarious and I couldn't find a single thing wrong with it, except they forgot to mention Patrick Davidson.

My first impression was that it only referred to the PAST. Boo!

I think it's cute. And, I don't think it implies that our athletes don't study or graduate. It's a take-off on the Hollywood stars tours.

I know we all have to grow up, but shoot, I didn't want to graduate college. I wanted to keep partying, err studying.

I love it!
