Why don’t we get started by drinking some of the Duke Haterade that the Indianapolis Star served in its early Friday edition?
This went out to the State edition, and editor Jim Lefko admitted that , “It didn’t meet our standards,” Lefko said. “It was one of those ideas that you start throwing around and by the time it came together, it was on deadline. … It didn’t get vetted.”
No Shit Sherlock.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said It is what it is. It’s very juvenile. We have great kids who go to school, they graduate. If we’re going to be despised or hated by anyone because we go to school and we want to win, you know what? That’s your problem.
The art was changed for the city edition, with just a picture of Coach K and “Boo Devils” as the headline.

I’ve already bet on Exhibition MLB. English Premier League Soccer and horses today. Putting my annual salary at BC on Butler.
Lent ends a day early in my house.

Who watched the Findaly Prep game? Hablame. I saw maybe the first ten minutes. Tristan Thompson was running the damn floor like a point forward which is contrary to the skills I had heard he had. He looked very nice, but I didn’t see much. Some asshole at the gym switched it to golf.

I’m really pulling for WV in a way that surprises me given my lack of regard for Huggins

Mazulla (spelling?) kinda reminds me of Balbay. WVU needs someone on their team like Pittsnoggle. They’re sorely missing having a player who captures the essence of their state.

Huggiins is going to have to switch up his defenses because Duke is eating them up…. Can they really shoot this well the rest of the game

I’m really impressed with Duke’s rebounding. Zoubek, Thomas, Single and the Plumlees are all great at it.

Would Dexter Pittman have been an All-American at Duke? Fouling with impunity?
by Juice on Apr 3, 2010 9:51 PM CDT reply actions
What is the over/under on 1) the number of fouls Zoubek commits on Monday night; and 2) the number that are actually called?
I’ll go with 25 and 3.

Duke v Butler for all the marbles. Unfuckingreal.
by Hiphopopotamus on Apr 3, 2010 10:29 PM CDT reply actions
yeah they get every 50 / 50 call… but Duke won that game … they whipped wvu all night long, the refs helped them against baylor but in this one coach K took huggy bear behind the woodshed…
I will cheer like crazy for butler and they deserve to be there… but I think it will be ugly just like the wvu game.
I hope that the big 3 shot their wad tonight and will go cold monday but its more likely that they are going to continue shooting lights out, but hell they could miss all night and it wouldnt matter because there is noway Butler can even come close to slowing down Duke inside on the glass

Hip- Since you had Duke getting to the finals from the beginning … I can only imagine how pissed you have to be watching butler go through when we all know it should be you all

Line opened at 6.5…. It will end up at 8.5 by tip off … and I think I’ll still take Duke
by travis on Apr 3, 2010 10:33 PM CDT reply actions
Dam, it did open at 6.5, that’s pretty low. Public is hitting Duke hard already and I expect that to continue and settle around 8 to 9, just like travis said.

Will this be the whitest final since 1965?
by CrazyJoeDavola on Apr 4, 2010 1:14 AM CDT reply actions
I haven’t had a chance to see much of butler, but it seems they have no chance to hold their own on the boards, thus eliminating any chance of victory even if Duke suffers a bad shooting night.
Somebody convince me I’m wrong.
