Solidarity with McHobbit - Duke fans are the worst.
Duke fans chanted "how's your grandma" as Tyler Lewis (aka McHobbit), who just lost his grandma (with whom he was very close), shot free throws. Certainly not all the students were doing it, but sounds like at least 100 of them. I'm sure KG approves - everyone else should not be surprised.
I wonder if Grant Hill will write a sanctimonious op-ed blaming this on Jalen Rose.

McClassy. Did he make the free throws?
February 8th, 2013 at 10:17 AM ^
Where is Vitale on this? Duke can do no wrong. Come on, his grandmother just passed. This is an all time low.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:30 AM ^
BUT DUKE'S AWESOME BABY!!!!
February 8th, 2013 at 12:48 PM ^
but Dicky V is someone I wouldn't mind never having on the Earth again. If I have to hear one more f***ing thing about Aaron Crafts defense IM gonna throw him through a glass wall myself.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:19 AM ^
That's awful. I propose we rename him mgoMcHobbit for the day.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:20 AM ^
The Cameron C**ts are the most over-hyped buncha nothing in college basketball. The only thing more dated, tired, and used-up is Dick Vitale.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:18 AM ^
I live in Sarasota, FL and Vitale eats breakfast every morning at the Broken Egg in Lakewood Ranch, the first time i saw him there he was wearing a ND pullover, forever hated.
February 8th, 2013 at 3:36 PM ^
FWIW, I think one of Vitale's kids (daughter?) attended ND. Just sayin'.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:20 AM ^
I've lived and worked around a lot of Duke fans, and I find them most of them irritating, but this surprised me. I expect this kind of thing at MSU, but this isn't really the Duke style of annoying. Disappointing.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:37 AM ^
Agreed. I find that most of them have chips on their shoulders but none of them I know would do something like that. Horrible, horrible way to "cheer" on your team! Kids like that need a good punch in the throat.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:10 AM ^
In fact, given the posts below suggesting that this was actually "past your bedtime," I'm willing to give Duke the benefit of the doubt on this one. Like I said, this just isn't their style of suck.
February 8th, 2013 at 12:05 PM ^
February 8th, 2013 at 11:28 AM ^
This is really, really lame of the Duke students that were chanting that. However the "Kevin Garnett is a duke fan" tag combined with the brilliance of the McHobbit nickname have me cracking up here.
Edit: Allegedly. Kind of like how CRAIG JAMES KILLED FIVE HOOKERS WHILE AT SMU
February 8th, 2013 at 10:25 AM ^
pretty classless. I read that some are arguing they were changting "past your bedtime" It sure doesnt sound like that.
Yikes
February 8th, 2013 at 10:35 AM ^
Reallly?
February 8th, 2013 at 10:26 AM ^
February 8th, 2013 at 10:33 AM ^
Per comments on the matter from Duke students:
"This was "past your bedtime."
This was a coordinated chant made by the head line monitor when he held up a sign saying something along the lines of "Chant Past Your Bedtime for Tyler Lewis."
Nolan Evans either misheard or is sensationalizing because I was standing directly to his right and heard nor said anything along the lines of "How's your Grandma.""
I know we all hate Duke but we can't take a story and run with it without hearing from the other side. At most, MAYBE a couple of d-bags from duke were saying it but it certainly wasn't the entire student section. Sounds like the writer is just trying to get some headlines.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:37 AM ^
It sounds like past your bedtime to me.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:39 AM ^
Agreed. I think its pretty clearly that, actually.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:41 AM ^
The first free throw it sounds like past your bed time, but on the second one lots of people are chating "how's your grandma"
February 8th, 2013 at 10:42 AM ^
Maybe I am deaf but I don't hear it. I just hear past your bedtime.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:44 AM ^
but the second time, there are a lot of MAAA sounds to end the second word. Doesn't sound like "bed time" to me. First free throw, i agree they are mostly/all chanting bedtime.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:52 AM ^
The problem is that "How's your grandma?" and "Past your bedtime" have the same rhythm when chanted. It's a Rorschach test. Some of them could be chanting "You like nachos," and we would have no idea.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:27 AM ^
...where they Rita's nachos? otherwise..no one liked them.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:37 AM ^
February 8th, 2013 at 12:20 PM ^
This thread was pretty depressing until Eric once again saved the day by turning the discussion to nachos.
Now....I think anybody who puts chicken or literally anything BUT ground meat on theirs is not really serving nachos. It annoys me when i see these so-called chefs fucking up a perfectly otherwise great plate of nachos with wierd meat-foods that belong on a French resturant's menu and not on a plate of nachos.
Chips, beans, GROUND MEAT, diced tomatoes, cheese (lots and lots of cheese), onions, lettuce, jallapenos and avocado with a bit of sour cream and salsa on the side. Now that's nachos!
February 8th, 2013 at 1:07 PM ^
That should say shredded. Ground meat in any form other than burger, meatball, or bolognese (and that's stretching it) is gross.
February 8th, 2013 at 3:57 PM ^
Tacos? I agree it's better with carne asada, but a Taco Bell style taco is far from gross.
February 8th, 2013 at 5:35 PM ^
I'm with ya if it's fresh jalapenos. Those are the best.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:30 AM ^
It still sounds like "Past your bedtime" to me on the second one.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:55 AM ^
listening to this...you are right at first i think they are saying this but then it sounds like it changes to the grandma statement.
Tough to tell
February 8th, 2013 at 11:28 AM ^
Definitely How's Your Grandma on 2nd FT.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:34 AM ^
February 8th, 2013 at 1:40 PM ^
I heard two very distinct chants of "how's your grandma" on the second free throw. It might have been mixed in with others, but it was definitely there. I'm not going to make excuses for Duke or give them the benefit of the doubt on this one like a lot of people seem to want to do.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:36 AM ^
February 8th, 2013 at 1:38 PM ^
I came across this story on the "racist rager" today. Based on this, I wouldn't be surprised if the dukies were saying the grandma comment. classless.
February 8th, 2013 at 10:37 AM ^
sounds like past your bedtime...am i missing something?
February 8th, 2013 at 10:37 AM ^
They remind me of:
Johnny from the Karate Kid...and pretty much anyone William Zabka played.
Stan Gable (Ted McGinley) in Revenge of the Nerds
James Spader's character, Steff, in Pretty in Pink
Roy Stalin in Better Off Dead
If you are too young to have seen these movies, you must watch them. They are some of the finest works of art our country has produced.

Teddy from One Crazy Summer
Troy from The Goonies
February 8th, 2013 at 11:00 AM ^
The other biking team in Breaking Away.
February 8th, 2013 at 11:31 AM ^
One Crazy Summer was so bad it's good.
The Goonies is just awesome.
"Because it's their time. Their time! Up there! Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here. That's all over the second we ride up Troy's bucket."

If you're looking at past your bedtime it sounds like past your bedtime, if you're looking at How's your grandma is sounds like that.
Past Your Bedtime
Hows your grandma

Is just wrong and needs to listen again. While on the first free throw, it seems like almost everyone is chanting "bedtime," on the second free throw there are a lot of people chanting "how's your grandma". It's mixed in with the other chant but it's there. I understand the instinct to be the reasonable guy in the room, but face facts.
