I will definitely watch UNC/Duke.  I lived in Greensboro for awhile as a middle school kid.   I fully “get” that rivalry as I lived it in the middle school hallways….literally EVERY kid down there picked a side and rooted. Even the so called “geeks” who weren’t otherwise into sports…they followed college hoops and rooted for a North Carolina team.  Majority - UNC, with Duke and “State” having similar sized secondary bases.  Nobody liked Wake….until all of the Duke and State kids loved them when Randolph Childress led them to the ACC title over UNC.

Me being a proud and defiant ahole by nature wore my Syracuse gear constantly while I lived down there…..my school was a huge and weird melting pot of country hicks and city kids….the “country” kids were either completely bewildered(they had no idea any other teams played college b-ball) and sometimes even slightly offended.  They either had no idea what I was doing, didn’t like it, or both.   The “city” kids always respected it and wanted to talk hoops with me, and assumed Syracuse and NYC were the same thing, and I must’ve come from the playgrounds where Kenny Anderson played.(lol)

Easy choice for me even if WWE was any good.

Also, this two days Mania is absolutely stupid and I will never support it.  I’ll eventually watch the couple matches that I care about.

Jericho, Punk, and Bryan are the only WWE guys that I truly cared about at any point in the last decade and they’re all in the other company so…..WWE just doesn’t hold any clout with me now.
