...one of the many posters (including Brian) on here that attribute words like "slow" and "unathletic" to white football and basketball players. It's no secret that white athletics get scrutinized and treated differently when being compared to other athletes...on this blog. But then again, that probably doesn't whet your political beak so you don't give 2 shits.

Being insensitive to homosexuals = not good.

Being insensitive to white people = OK

I guess I just don't understand the humour in using "gay" as an insult when people are murdered just for being gay:

Using a word that is filled with hate as a "joking" insult just doesn't work.

is strange.  I mean I think the OP is absolved of responsibility for how comically late this post is by the fact that there does appear to have been some type of formal "announcement" today.  But wasn' this "announced" several months ago?

me, or does it ALWAYS seem like we play Duke AT Duke, or at a neutral site FAVORABLE to Duke?

Can't stand Cameron Crazies

Can't stand anything to do with Christian Laettner

Can't stand Dickie V and his knob-gobbling of everything Coach K does

Can't stand that they call him "Coach K", but then don't pronounce the K when his  name is said.

Duke doesn't lose at home to non-conference opponents. :( 

Fuck Cameron. Have to deal with the officials there as well as the crowd and Duke's "defense"

The GRIII - Jabari Parker matchup should be very interesting.  Really good test overall, Duke's loaded on the wings and in the backcourt but Michigan has good talent there as well and goes 3 - 4 deep in the post.  It will be tough to win at Cameron but I like our chances in a late March / early April rematch.

Top B1G team vs top ACC team.  Michigan v Duke.  As it should be.

Side, unrelated, note...Marcus Ray told a story on WTKA the other day relayed to him by Christian Laettner that while on a recruiting visit to A2, Laettner had to run off as Michigan football players wanted to beat him up.  I love Michigan.

For my MBA. I've started talking with classmates and already made it clear that I'll be buying as many tickets to this game as possible to distribute to Michigan fans, can't wait. Go Blue.

People also pejoratively use the word *retarded* here, which is absolutely hysterical. When folks grow up a little, they'll understand why words like that - when they're used to demean something - are hurtful.

NC    Alumni Clubs: Charlotte and the Triangle Area Club (Raleigh-Durham)

SC    Alumni Club: Hilton Head Island or Spirit Clubs: Charleston and Greenville

They will probably get the opportunity to order tix.  (Worst case you'll find some good folks to watch the game together.)
