Give it a break, fanboy. You're just getting ridiculous now. I almost thought that you were starting to become half-way logical and reasonable lately when it came to discussing something. I was wrong. You're just another mindless fanboy wandering through. You haven't changed a bit.

The game's over. Dook rulez. Nobody really gives a sh!t anymore. Go find a Dook fanboy site some place; you'll find all kinds of people there just like you to agree with everything you say, and are quite willing to discuss how great Dook really is.

It doesn't matter what school you're a fanboy of, jb.; all of you fanboys are the same anyway.

Come back and join us when you mature a little.

And under a new name which might be a little less fanboyish.

Interesting bio on Al Skinner. Did not know he played in the ABA. http://bceagles.collegesports.com/sp...nner_al00.html

I haven't read yours and JR's discussion, so I don't know who I'm agreeing with. But I had no problem with the way they handled it. I don't think Paulus meant to contact Tinnant but the fact is that he did. I thought the Duke bench did a good job of controlling their players and the BC coach did a good job of getting down there and taking care of business.

JB, can you tell me the last time (if ever) something happened out of the ordinary in a Duke game and it didn't go Duke's way? I'm not saying it hasn't; I just want to know if you can tell me when it did.

I know one official who made some big calls at the end of a game against Duke and I raised my eyebrows. I called him the next day and told him I thought he did a good job, not because it went against Duke, but because it was the right call and some officials wouldn't have made the call.

I was thinking, it seems like Duke has almost become college basketball's "America's team" like the Cowboys and Braves. At least the Cowboys have 5 Super Bowls.

Did anyone see the official in lead? He missed the whole incident because he was pointing and trying to get the ball back. It's a good idea to keep an eye on the players after a hustle play like that to make sure this exact situation doesn't occur. C & T did a good job of getting in there quick. This is a good example to less experienced officials that haven't had this type of situation happen in their games. I learned this the hard way and it made me officiate a lot harder during dead ball periods!

Tony, I really wish you would read the discussion
, since you're in the unique position of being a knowledgeable official, follower, and UNC guy.

UNC deserves way better than having to face Michigan State in the second round, by the way. Worst seeding ever.

You want to let me know where I strayed into total nonsense, or do you just want to namecall, oh wise one?

tom,

Just wanted to let you know that when I have some time tonight, I'll compose a serious response to your serious, legitimate question.

John

I really could care less about fanboys- any fanboys- one way or another.
