Radio stations in NC going crazy!

[RaleighSUfan]

Charlotte radio station broadcaster, Marc James just guaranteed Duke will beat Syracuse comfortably on Saturday. He also said that Syracuse is going to find out how basketball is played in the ACC on Tobacco Road. A ton of Syracuse hate... I love it! Hysterical!!

Quick, has anyone got the stats on how many games this guy has won for Duke when he makes crazy guarantees like this???

 

[OrangeCrush22]

Love the wording. "Syracuse is going to find out how basketball is played in the ACC on Tobacco Road". We already know how ACC basketball is played outside of Tobacco Road, and it involves losing to Syracuse.

See ya at the rim dog!

FOUL!!

I believe we already know how skewed (A.K.A. crooked) the officiating is for any team playing against the Tobacco Road teams on Tobacco Road. Why he is proud of this is beyond me. Then again I try to be honest while he…...

 

[SUintheVille]

Jealousy, pure and simple.

 

[LAOrange]

This should be fun. Just don't lose to Boston College before we get there.

 

[tee1222]

Haters gonna hate! Sorry, G. I had to borrow this gold.

 

[DocFlanders]

Marc James was pissed off at cuse. He couldn't control his hate, and went on to basically says cuse has had refs in their back pocket for years...even implied Jim Burr was a cuse lackey! Hilarious, but oh so transparent. Loser...

 

[Madbiker]

Isn't Cuse already 4-0 against Tobacco Road in conference games?

 

[DocFlanders]

Said Miami, duke, NC State and someone else (don't remember who) all would have won if the refs didn't bail them out...oh yea, UNC Asheville several years ago in the tourney

 

[Toga]

Takes time to adjust to the new sheriff. I understand.

 

[bballbeadle]

Yes, I was listening to 97.7 guys interviewing Raleigh News & Observer guy, and he said that the entire state of North Carolina hates us. The ONLY reason we have won some of those close games is because of the bad foul calls. Syracuse guy asked, "So, if we had lost some of those games and were 22 - 3, would you be talking about how good Syracuse is this year?" Yes! "But the fact that we are 25 - 0 means we are not good?" Yes! It is undeserved.

It's lonely at the top.

Is it just me or does everyone else love the hate from outsiders?

I HATE the hate! I want to be universally respected and admired. And I want the team to be, too!

I absolutely love the hate. Weird, right? But it means they're watching.

Same thing on 99.9 in Raleigh this evening. Had the audacity to claim Syracuse isn't a Final Four team (then who would be, genius?). Less than three minutes later they were hyping ASU over Zona and saying that they are a solid tournament team. Anyone watch that game? Credibility = shot.

 

[Orangezoo]

I love it. Just wait till louisville joins. The crying will be endless.

I find all of the obvious attention craving by some press both funny and flattering. They want to be heard, so they state against the truth as it stands. We are and have been the best team in the country for weeks now.

 

[Scooch]

Let the hate flow through you...

 

[Moontan]

Silly me for thinking that Winston-Salem and Raleigh were on Tobacco Road.

The fans hate it, but the conference commissioner and every AD is absolutely loving what this means for the conference. EVERYBODY is watching Syracuse's every step... that means eyes to the tvs no matter where you are. That boosts the ACC's profile. ESPN is in heaven that Syracuse has been winning games with some controversy.

 

[Orangefanforever]

We are the new kids..stomping on "ACC Tradition"..so I am told. The fact that we are from NY rubs salt into the wounds.

They asked for it...Now DEAL with it!

SU is the only reason the ACC is relevant this year.
