No, we have the right to post positives and negatives. But if players come on a fan board they are just asking for psychic trouble. Psycho trouble?

Please please tell me that’s not true! Coming on this board is an act of masochism if you’re a player. Surely they go on instagram and other sites that are much more hip than this one. I don’t mean to denigrate us at all. This is a great site and we have great, knowledgeable posters. But a...

WHAT?? Maliq is visiting Duke this Wednesday through Friday, the absolutely most stunning time of year for the Duke campus and Durham????? I am nauseated.

The Boeheim part never fails to crack me up. They have never found a better one for “and all those years, no one knows.”

If he plays as good as he looks, we’ll have a fabulous season! Is that sexist? Or pervy? I don’t care.

All the world’s a stage And all the men and women merely players They have their exits and their entrances And one man in his time plays many parts.

i just finished watching Iowa v LSU in the women’s Elite 8. Caitlin Clark is “galactic greatness,” as an announcer said after the game. There are a lot of super women players and the women usually stay 4 years. It is a family atmosphere. I never thought I would get into women’s bball because I...

This is all just sad. :(

Um, 2003? But of course that was another era in another universe.

Okay Duke has always been a team I “must” root for because of all the friends connections. I often wish them well. But I can get as sick of them as the next person. Last night I purposefully didn’t go to my Duke friends’ house to watch the game because I was in my heart of hearts rooting for NC...

I am just damn happy for Joe.

I haven’t read this whole thread but did it seem to anyone else that the announcers were all in on Oakland? I’m very happy for NC State. It’s easy to root for them THIS year.

OMG OMG OOOOMMMMM

The growth of players from freshman to senior years is one of the things I have loved the most with college basketball. It felt like family. Now we just push them out the door - or they bolt for greener pastures rather than learning from their coach. How can we be attached to our teams when we...

Are we SURE he is leaving? (Confession: I have not read whole thread.)

Bulldog,I am just reading this now. Was he unhappy with us or were we unhappy with him? Edit: Never mind. I finished reading the thread.

Why would Copeland leave?

What? It’s over?

WHAT??

I must assume you make money doing this? When your eyes caught sight of that horrific game, did you start losing bigly?

Dasher, I’m too lazy to find the thread. How is that cough?

We must pray Copeland doesn’t see this because if he does he will do nothing but try to duplicate that play over and over. The whole season will go down the drain.

Why? Do they hate him?

I think it’s Bell vs. Joe. Here’s the game plan. Every time Joe makes a 3 pointer, Bell makes a 3 pointer. Then Bell makes 2 more 3 pointers and we win the game! The rest of the team is superfluous. Ha ha ha ha!

General, did we do that thing you said we are doing last night? :rolleyes:

Yes, Boeheim is now on TV a lot as an analyst. Of course he is biased but he is precise, he makes sense, and you know how it goes. If you hear something long enough, it becomes true!

The taste of the NCAAs is so tantalizing. To totally put the thought out of our grieving minds . . . Then suddenly . . . (Sniff sniff) . . . What’s that smell . . . Growing stronger . . . OH MY GOD, IT’S CINNABON!

Wise words, Steve. Wise.

Is it good for us that Clemson lost? Seems like it would be in terms of metrics but it’s going to make them VERY determined to beat us now more than ever. Oh well, what will be will be.

I haven’t read all the responses. Delsym. Absolutely. And it has a mild taste. However, science has recently discovered nothing really works. I assume you shall see a doctor if it persists.

Norovirus.

I most certainly can’t and as I read it, I wondered, “Does Red know he is doing this?” :confused:

No try, just do.

It’s not like it’s impossible to control, as he said. And college sports is the opposite of “cool.” Kids are excited and exuberant. I love it! However, all stadiums need to prepare for the possibility.

I like your never-say-die attitude!

Cute.

How did Bell play after that dressing down? I didn’t see it and don’t know what happened. I do know he made that terrific block against the backboard when the game was very tight. Did he do that after Red yelled at him? Does yelling really and truly motivate people?

It has been ten years since we have had a 20 win season???

People just love her! A lot of fun.

But what does it all MEAN? Are we going to beat them or not??

I am also a therapist, Nicknack, which is why this topic interests me. Or I WAS a therapist until retirement turned my brain to mush. A study showed that fans seem to have better mental health than people who aren’t fans. I wonder if it has something to do with learning to cope with loss and the...

And it was quite snarky. Tom, I think all the season ticket holders are nervous and somewhat sad. I think everyone in the stadium tomorrow night should link arms and sing “Auld Lang Syne.”

We are all very different and it is probably disingenuous to attribute pessimism more to males than females. I so think women are more disposed to support, comfort and circle the wagons where the men tend towards “Off with their heads!” Oops, and that comment may have been disingenuous as well...

Me, too! I give it three days. Ha ha!

The Hidden Level. What pray tell is this?

Thank you, Bevo. I will survive. For me, the interim feeling before some kind of outcome happens is worth the optimism. I feel more peaceful and cheerful. The disappointment does not hit me harder, although that’s hard to assess. How would I know? I yam what I yam. Just returned from the...

There are two ways of looking at life. Hoping for the best, then coping if it doesn’t happen. Or anticipating the worst, then being pleasantly surprised. I wonder if this is a gender thing? Do more women have the attitude of the former, and men the latter? I am sure that’s not true in all cases...

What an impressive, entertaining write up, Steve! Perhaps your very very best, and that’s saying something! I am glad you mention the sophomores. I think it truly is our main Achilles Heel this year (alas, we have others).

I saw after I replied that 4 other people said the same thing. You’re welcome, Mr. M.
