The Duke University men's basketball team has earned a special privilege in college sports and within March Madness: It will never be considered the underdog. As far as we're concerned, for as long as Coach K is patrolling the sideline and as long as his hair stays a surreal jet-black, Duke will ...
Newark A Horrible Place To Visit, But Better Than Syracuse
Yesterday, the big news was that John Calipari had moved the Wildcats out of their Newark hotel, giving some excuse about wanting a place "on the outskirts of the city ... so they didn't have any distractions."

Cats vs. Dogs Tournament: Today's Matchup Is A Doozy

Daddy Loves You, Son, And Fuck Everybody Else
