Cracker Barrel Robbery: $158 in UNC, Duke Gear the Ill-Gotten Gains
In a move that leaves every person who has ever been to a Cracker Barrel aghast, two people made off with $158 in merchandise from the old country store yet left behind the wheels of cheese, butter churns, and large checker board pieces that you played on a quilt. Instead they filched North Carolin...
Hmm, Hard To Believe This Kid Turned Out To Be A Twit
Like many of you I suspect, I got my first look at Andrew Giuliani during his dad's mayoral inauguration speech in 1994. As my grandfather always said, "You get the kids you deserve." (Abe Vigoda there in the background in photo No. 2 does not look amused). You probably know by now that Andrew is su...
Giuliani's Mom Questions Coach's Judgment
Apparently once you decide to procreate with Rudy Giuliani you become some sort of arbiter of quality judgment. The New York Daily News is reporting that the Giuliani camp will use a 2004 picture from a Golf Digest photo shoot from Duke's O.D. Vincent's days at UCLA to display the coach's history p...
Elijah Dukes Has Been Quiet Long Enough
Last week, Elijah Dukes hit a walk-off two-run homer to beat the Cardinals in the second game of a doubleheader. (It really was an awesome game.) Elijah, as Elijah is wont to do, celebrated a bit too vigorously, upsetting an umpire and his manager, Manny Acta. Thus was the fuse lit....

Duke Takes One Last Flop For The Road
Watch as Duke's Gerald Henderson runs over to clobber the Mountaineers' Cam Thoroughman from behind. Thoroughman (6-foot-7, 215) doesn't take to that too well, and ... whoa! Did you see that, ref? Air shove!...

For One Night, We Were All Vince Gill
The initial rush of excitement that the NCAA Tournament brings us often disguises the fact that the games themselves sometimes disappoint. The upsets we crave, the upsets that excite us about all this in the first place — the first weekend is always more of an "event" than the national championship...

Duke Blue Devils
1. It's Pronounced "SHY-er fah-SAY." Photos of it are center (and roommate) Brian Zoubek's desktop background. "Weird," says guard Gerald Henderson. "It's just weird." They're referring, of course, to the infamous (Jon) Scheyer Face, found on the mug of Duke's sixth man. Judging only by his expressi...

Duke Shows Off For Lover Vitale
We could go into a ton of detail about the Duke-North Carolina game last night, how Duke is probably the best team in the country right now just a year after a first-round tournament upset, or about how Coach K is able to adjust and elude irrelevance in a way Bob Knight wasn't able to late in his ca...
Time For Blue Devils, Tar Heels Again
Even though our guys are falling apart and college basketball mostly exists right now solely to make us sad, it's impossible not to be fired up by a fiery North Carolina-Duke game when both teams are in the top five. And Vitale's back tonight too. They should have eased him in with a Gonzaga game o...
