Are we supposed to pull against the school where Ken Starr is Prez or against Nixon's alma mater? |
|
Just wondering who to pull for in the Duke / Baylor game.

3. Your position doesn't have anything to do with something that happened back in 92 does it? |

8. I'm a UofL fan, not UK |
|
but Laettner should have been thrown out of that game earlier after he stomped on a UK player that was on the ground.
Naaah...just hate Duke and think it's awesome both UK *and* UofL have beaten them for the championship.

16. as Baptist schools go |
|
Baylor is the least fundy of the bunch (except for U of Chicago, which I don't think is Baptist affiliated any more.) Which means it's still way, way WAY to the right of any sane person.

I like the coach. He is part of the Drew family, a basketball dynasty at my alma mater, Valpo. They know how to coach and play. Plus, the Drews are simply nice people.

9. Why is Duke so unpopular? This is an innocent question. |
|
I don't follow the basketball March thingie (I know, I am a Martian.) And I know Nixon went to Duke, but gee whiz, so did a lot of people. I really am curious.

Of course there are other factors involved.

13. I'm in a real quandary |
|
as an ex baptist, I should pull against Baylor. But I hate everything about Duke. I'm pulling for a meteor hitting the arena.
