#2 UNC v. #6 Duke basketball game on right now on CBS.

[Lex]

.
Not sure if it's on in every region.

Anyway, it's usually a good game. The two universities are only about 8 miles away from each other in central NC.

Both towns (Durham & Chapel Hill) comprise the big BLUE Democratic dot (not RED) in NC!

[SmileyBoy]

1. I've got Kansas vs. Missouri on CBS.

Good game right now.

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. Mizzou up by 4

24 seconds left.

[SmileyBoy]

5. Lemme guess: Jayhawks fan???

:)

[proud2BlibKansan]

8. You betcha

alum too

[Lex]

6. What happened?

[phusion]

9. Mizz won by 4 n/t

[proud2BlibKansan]

10. MIzzou spanked em

[Lex]

11. Kansas *was* ranked 7th, right?

Guess they drop now.

[proud2BlibKansan]

12. And so will Kentucky and Illinois

It's been a day of upsets.

[Lex]

13. UNC will move into the #1 slot if they hold off Duke today.

Duke beat them earlier in the season but not sure they can do it twice. Duke's bench isn't very deep this season and the 2nd half will be hard on them, I think.

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. We Jayhawkers

NEVER root for UNC anymore.

[Lex]

16. Oops.

I can see your point on that.

[proud2BlibKansan]

17. We don't even like

Dean Smith anymore. Duke inherited a whole bunch of Kansas fans two years ago.

[Lex]

18. Yikes. Let's not get in bed with the Devil just because

Roy was less than graceful on his exit!

[proud2BlibKansan]

20. Dean Smith was up to his ears in that exit also you know

It was pretty nasty.

[Lex]

24. Dean Smith is a good Dem, and Coach K campaigned for Liddy Dole.

Dean Smith campaigned for John Edwards and John Kerry--and was quite visible in the campaign here in NC.

Coach K campaigned for Liddy Dole.

I just wouldn't be able to get behind rooting for Coach K and Duke, no matter what Roy Williams did or didn't do.

JMHO.

[proud2BlibKansan]

41. Darn!

Why did you have to tell me THAT?

[Lex]

43. In fact, John Edwards was at the game today, rooting for UNC

and he attended with our Democratic Governor--Mike Easley--both sitting together rooting for UNC!

That was cool.

[ffm172]

2. I have to follow it through internet

I don't have CBS here in Germany. AAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. How do you get through the month of March?

I would go crazy.

[Lex]

4. Carolina off to a slow start.

Duke making several 3 pointers.

[Lex]

7. Nevermind -- Carolina doing really well right now. Tie game

now with 10 min. left in the half.

[senseandsensibility]

19. Iknow, I know!

Mr. senseandsensibility is glued to it, and he says Blue Heaven rocks! (He's a good DUer, who worked his butt off for Kerry)

[JohnKleeb]

21. whos winning?

I want UNC.

[Lex]

22. UNC is winning right now.

.
And me too! (I want UNC to win.)

[JohnKleeb]

23. good I dont like Duke

[CalebHayes]

27. 1:00 left Duke is winning by 2

[short bus president]

25. 2:40 left - my Devils are up 4

Who else is drunk as PISS at 6p on a Sunday night?!?

[CalebHayes]

26. Go UNC!

[CalebHayes]

28. :39 seconds left and duke is up by two with the ball

[JohnKleeb]

29. this could end up in OT

I really dont care since I dont have an official college team, well I like the NOVA B-ball team :silly: thats my future alma mater :).

[Lex]

30. OMG!

breathe breathe We got a basket.

UNC up by 2.

[Lex]

33. UNC WINS!!!!!!

[JohnKleeb]

35. Neat

My carpool mate for work aint gonna be happy, hes a big Duke fan.

[CalebHayes]

32. UNC WINS!!!

[Lex]

39. Yayyyyy!

:thumbsup:

[pstans]

31. Refs are horrible

This is the worst officiated game I have ever seen. Where was the foul on UNC's last basket?

[Lex]

36. They were just as bad calling terrible calls against UNC

in the last Duke-UNC matchup.

[SW FL Dem]

40. The officiating was awful.

I'm glad my hubby wasn't able to watch the game, he would have lost it.

[pstans]

34. Hmm, your ranked #2

so why the heck are UNC fans rushing the court? What losers.

I am a Duke fan if you can't tell.

[Lex]

38. Same reason Duke fans burn a big bonfire

every damn time they beat UNC, even if they are ranked way higher than UNC at the time.

I could tell you are a Duke fan. :hi:

[CalebHayes]

37. If Duke scores one time in the last 3 minutes and 7 seconds they win.

[Lex]

42. JOHN EDWARDS was there in the crowd rooting for UNC!

That is where he is working now.

Our Democratic Governor Mike Easley was there with John Edwards too!

Go UNC! Go Dems!

[CalebHayes]

46. Go John!

[noshenanigans]

44. Wooo!

Times like these, I wish I could be on Franklin Street. *sniff*.. makes an Alum homesick...

[Lex]

47. Hi fellow alum!

:hi:

[WMliberal]

45. Fuck fuckedy fuck fuck fuck

What the hell happened. 74-63. Two to play. Just get the ball over half court and hold it.

I'm wondering if Coach K said in the first timeout, "okay guys, to win, we should turn the ball over three times in the next two minutes. Nelson! You're a piss poor free throw shooter. I want YOU to handle the ball the most."

:grr:
