Excerpt from an Arizona Daily Star article by Bruce Pascoe about scheduling:


Even today, Olson has to be careful. He said he nearly signed a deal to play at Duke this season, as part of a home-and-home series, but became suspicious when the Blue Devils would not specify a return date for Tucson in 2005-06.

"Then the next thing was I got a call from CBS and they said, 'Well, Duke wants to play you at the Meadowlands,' " Olson said. "I said, 'You know what? We'll play the neutral site game in Phoenix or the Pond (of Anaheim, Calif.). But other than that, you just call Duke up and tell them to go fly a kite.' ''

im sure there are two sides of the story, and figure out something else to post besides threads bashing duke where you basically just troll providing no insight or knowledge to the subject...i.e. your last two threads

I quoted an article on Lute Olsen commenting on an ACC coach. I didn't provide any commentary or express my opinions about anything on it, knowing that you'd wet your pants if I did. For someone who previously claimed his comments were "innocent" and "just the way you talk when with your friends", you sure do seem bent out of shape about a quote from a newspaper article.

Most importantly, how is this not relevant on an ACC board and subsequently, how would this be trolling?

I'm sorry if it bothers you but this is a generally talked about theory and here's support for it from a respected coach with nothing to gain by saying it. I posted it simply to boost the lagging discussion around here. If you don't believe it's credible - cool - that's your choice, but please do me a favor and grow a pair when it comes to mild criticism of your team.

It's a friggin' quote - Jesus Christ.

I just realized your other example of "trolling" was pointing out that Shavlik Randolph has mono.

Will it be trolling later on if someone comments on a Dook loss? You seem to have a pretty loose definition of trolling, no?

whatever obviously we dont understand each other and thats cool, its just I kinda find it annoying and in my opinion stupid to post those two threads just bashing duke, you say you were trying to insight conversation or whatever but you could have posted something dealing with unc or something not bashing another acc school, and it seems to me that you are the only one posting these kind of things, i dont see anyone else bashing any other acc teams, one was okay but two kinda aggravated me, I retrospect i did overreact somewhat but i still feel it was not worth posting, you could have atleast provided some more commentary maybe your perhaps your own opinion, I feel no need to look for quotes and other bits of information bashing unc and post them here, it just seemed to me that you were going out of your way to put duke down. That is all im gonna say about this topic obviously we will never come to an understanding and im tired of dealing with this and you.

What don't we undestand?

I posted two completely relevant topics and you cried and moaned about it for some unknown reason.

You said I'm "looking" for them...the Shav thing was on every sports website in the country and the Lute Olsen thing was shown to me on a Carolina board I stay on. Yeah, I'm just spending all my spare time trying to "bash" the Blue Devils. Jesus....

I'd love to find out where all this "bashing" you saw is? I pointed out that Shav had mono and posted a quote from Lute Olsen. Literally - that's it. Seriously - point out what part of those two threads "bashes" your team? I freakin' dare you.

But I know we've heard your last word on the topic. Maybe it's because you realize you have absolutely no reason to be upset and you're tired of looking like an idiot.

Good God man, grow a pair. This is unreal.

In all seriousness, I specifically avoided the little good-natured ribbing that is commonplace everywhere else JUST SO I COULD AVOID ruffling your oh so easily ruffled feathers.

And you still invent a way to be offended....

I think you just need to relax JDawk...he wasn't trying to troll or bash Duke here, he was just posting something for us to read. Just try to chill and have fun here.
