Basketball Weekly Roundup
I enjoy doing these weekly updates on ACC basketball. (I guess that’s a good thing because the pay certainly sucks.) But I would hate to do a bracket for the entire NCAAT on a weekly or more frequent basis. The danger in trying to do too much too frequently was nicely illustrated before the Duke/UNC […]
NC State Baseball 2016
So it’s that time of year again. Yep, I know it’s probably snuck up on most of you seeing how it’s still all wintry and stuff, but in only a couple of days the Pack9 kicks off the 2016 season. And 2016 has the potential to be a pretty darned good year for baseball in […]

The Pack has had a less than exciting season this year with an overall 12-12 record, where they’re 2-9 in the conference. Although awake Forest is 10-14, […]
NYT factually inaccurate in article – Dean Smith’s shadow looming over scandal
Don’t have a lot of time right now…so, want to share this as quickly as we could. Link As I skim the article, the first thing I note that the UNC PR machine was successful in repositioning ‘facts’ with what is supposed to be the “paper of record”. Take the following quotes for example: The […]
ACC Basketball Weekly Update
Strange week in that the “mid-week” games were front-loaded on Monday and Tuesday, with only two games total left for Wed and Thursday.
