Friday frivolity for the basketball fans

[kellinator]

This says it all, really:

What's with all the Duke hate?

The new NBA season is making me a very happy girl, because now I have something to rant about that has nothing to do with the direction of the nation. Will be posting some rants and raves if I can ever get some freakin' time.

You need to make time.

Hehe.

#1. You're evil.
#2. Dookies are obnoxious. Take it from someone who dealt with them daily. Most of them are proof that money does not buy class. They are rude and crude and couldn't buy a clue if it hit them on the head.
#3. I have no empathy at all for rich kids who camp out in heated tents wired for high-speed internet six hours a day.
#4. Am I a bitter Dookie wannabe? Not at all! Shall I sing Hark The Sound for ya? ;)

(And Kel, if you sing that awful song that you learned at your Duke program, I'll kick your ass.)

2) Not all of us. Thanks for the sweeping generalization.
3) a) not all of us are rich, b) not heated tents (heating devices are outlawed and having one will get your spot in "line" revoked") c) it's the light poles that are wired, not the tents :P Which wireless internet pretty much makes moot, anyway.

If you really want to get her goat, sing the Duke version of the UNC fight song.

Heh heh.

Sorry. Got carried away. I know there are nice, non-rich Dookies - one of my best friends is one - so I should have made a disclaimer.

Heh... "One of my best friends went to Duke! Not that there's anything wrong with that..."

Mmmm, JJ Reddick. Preeeeety. He looks much better with his new haircut, too.

I haven't even read the article yet, but here's what it is as far as I can tell -- people hate other people's success, unless it's the Red Sox.

Duke sucks.

I don't mind dook so much, I just hope that Tech beats them twice in bball this year!
