    Whistles taking over the Duke-Mercer game … bodes very poorly for Mercer.

    They had established slight control, then Duke employed their patented ‘foul everyone and see what’s called’ defense – then lo and behold touch fouls called on Mercer and hugs not called on Duke. Go figure.

    I’m seeing it … but I ain’t believing it…

    Coach Rat is down 5 with a minute to go… against Mercer…

    I really hope the Mercer Coach is READY for some “special K”…

    Suliamon kicks the ball out of bounds – it’s the dawn of Duke sh*t!

    Dook, two hands on the Mercer guy after the inbound – that’s supposed to be an automatic foul tight? But no, play continues. Announcer calling for foul on Mercer, I didn’t see anything on the replay. Ball off Sue-EE-mon.

    If / when Dook loses this one… Will Coach Rat will make his kids WALK or RUN home???

    That camera shot of #31 on the Dook bench looks like HE knows the answer to my question…

    Duke has shot nearly 40 3’s in that game. Why any post player even considers going there amazes me. I’m not sure why, but Coach K really moved away from using his post guys on offense. The ball simply doesn’t go into the post enough with that team. When they’ve flamed out of the tourney, that’s been the big problem for them. Solid defensive teams who don’t turn over the ball and aren’t really bothered by their pressure can get high percentage shots. But Duke lives and dies by the 3.

    ^What Bill, he’s tired of being used as a battering ram by the guards?

    … dontworryaboutit Pup….no one took that any other way that exactly the way you intended…

    I lived in Atlanta and traveled to Macon regularly when I was a Pup… and just thought I would add a little historical context… with a subtle reference to Duke University’s Methodist roots and the friendly “rivalry” between the preachers of both cloths…

    … fwiw… I’m Presbyterian… more than less… :>}

    If Uncle Roy and the Holes roll over tonight against the Friars…

    then…
    Gubernor Pat should declare Monday to be a “religious” holiday…

    We GOTT whacked by the Jesuits…
    Dook GOTT whacked by the Baptists…
    and
    The Holes GOTT whacked by the Catholics…

    Anybody else see a trend here???

    Stat Guys … time to go to work… besides you need something to take your mind off of all things basketball…
