A chance at redemption.

I missed last week’s game. Really hoping to make up for that tomorrow!

 

[aiw]

This annoys me. It wouldn't be insane if Paolo didn't say that?

 

[SeanMayTriedToEatMe]

He’s going to take so many shots. An 8/31 FG hero performance.

 

[Hammy-O]

What a fucking moron.

Just a total lack of maturity and he will have to score 50 points for us to be UNC

I liked that from Paolo. Saying provocative shit for no reason is cool and badass, and they should want UNC.

 

[TS9]

Yeah, I really don’t mind it. The “correct” answer is obviously “doesn’t matter.” But Paolo saying “UNC” will have zero influence on whatever tomorrow’s outcome is. If UNC wins tomorrow, the fans will make hay out of that quote, but they’re gonna be dicks regardless.

Why wouldn't he want UNC? Is he supposed to lie?

We as fans may not want UNC, but I would expect a competitive basketball player to feel differently.

 

[TS9]

Furthermore, if I played for UNC, I’d want and expect him to say that as well.

Beating UNC is probably the only way this team ever gets any mojo back. I'm not saying I want to see them tomorrow, as we might as well all kill ourselves if we lose, but it's probably an inevitable twist of fate.

UNC will unearth K's corpse they buried in Cameron. They'll have their way with his remains in the final. Then they'll leave him to a scavenging 15 seed to pick his corpse clean. The Duke campus benches will be lit as his funeral pyre.

This is an impressive dirge. Poe-like.

Wtf is this thread? UNC and VT still playing

 

[skins]

Duke is playing UNC tomorrow. This is a thread for the game between Duke and UNC.

 

[aiw]

Is that you in your avatar, @skins ? You are so hot.

 

[Devilsforlife]

UNC is down 15. Still nothing more than a mediocre fucking Heels team.

Makes me happy no matter tomorrow's outcome. They will not make it very far.

 

[aiw]

This time of year for me is essentially please UNC don't make the Final Four. Everything else is gravy.

Don’t change the thread title no matter what
