It's a tradition in college basketball and only sore losers disrespect the tradition.  Duke has always been sore losers.  Duke didn't seem to have an issue with it when they won their region. 

Eh tradition or not it’s in the best interest to change. I’m a die hard Carolina fan but if I just lost a heated game then I’m not going to sit around while the other team celebrates in my face. Either shakes hands right after the game and celebrate after or don’t have the shake.

That is possibly true and understandable.

If do it when you only win then you're a sore loser.  That's my point.  They were happy to shake hands in the regional championship when they won but ran off the court like sore losers when they lost. 

If they never did it than I could understand your point but when they lose it called being a classless sore loser.

I see where you are coming from and yeah I get that point. Yeah it is a bit of a double standard for them.

Sensitivity is at an all time high.


Projecting at its finest.

As for tomorrows game it will come down to Manek against Wilson… whoever wins that matchup should win the game assuming everything else plays out like it should.

Bacot should be able to handle McCormack and I’m not worried about Lightfoot at all.

I think you put Love on Christian Braun. Braun is taller and a good player but Love is a better athlete and can really lock in on defense when he wants to.

Davis can handle Harris easily and should win that matchup handily.

Black will be on Agbaji and if he can keep him to 15 points or less then we’ll be in good shape.

It all comes down to Wilson and Manek… I personally think the matchup favors Manek because Wilson isn’t a great three point shooter so Manek can sit back on Wilson unlike what he had to do with Banchero.

Well for starters I spent 20 years in the triangle so yeah I’d say I know quite a bit about the area.

And it’s not projecting, it you not being able to take a little joke from a meme and then getting your feelings hurt that some people don’t want to live in Durham…

99 out of 100 people would rather live in Asheville and that’s okay… you can be the one that lives in Durham. I’m glad that someone likes it.

      Well that's part of where the disconnect is then, you think Chark was a "solid NFL player" I couldn't disagree more, he's someone who had one solid NFL season and then was at best a JAG the rest of his career, I wouldn't call that a "solid NFL player" If he was a #3 WR and put up the stats he did outside of that 1 season, then sure, he's a "solid NFL player" but he put up those numbers as the #1 WR in 3 of his 4 seasons that he had meaningful roles and the #2 in a high powered offense the 4th.   That's not good and not what I'd call a "solid NFL player"

      Everything always makes sense in hindsight. Hell, I've seen guys who were touted by everyone as slam dunk "safest player in the draft" type prospects bust massively. Remember Aaron Curry? Robert Gallery? I'm just never going to say that a prospect is definitely a better NFL player than a solid NFL player. Better as a prospect? Sure, you can always make those arguments. But ultimately it comes down to what you do on Sundays and what you did on Saturdays just isn't relevant when you're talking about who's the better NFL player.

      And that's totally fair to say, but I think it also shows you guys are conflating what I'm saying with thinking I'm saying something like, "T-Mac will 100% have a better NFL career than Chark had" which is a completely different statement and one I'd agree, you can't really say about any NFL player before they've ever taken a snap. Because what I'm saying, is that T-Mac's actual ability and skills right now, are at a higher level than Chark's ever were, it's a completely different statement that is independent of what his NFL output will be. Look at it this way, without even knowing what the rest of Chark's career turned out to be, would anyone seriously say they'd take Chark after the 2019 season over today's T-Mac if they somehow were in a draft and we were deciding between the two?  As even after that season, his potential was never what T-Mac's is right now. Even with those other prospects, I'm sure some of them before their NFL career started, still had more ability and physical talent than Chark had, because again, this is so much less about T-Mac and so much more about Chark.  A bad coach, system, QB, injuries, etc, that derail a WR's career no matter how good they may have been and is much more of the reason they were a bust than their own abilities.   Chark was a tall WR with little WR speed, he was a deep ball threat and wasn't even particularly great at it, he was not that good of an actual WR. If the Jags had another above average WR in 2019, then Chark doesn't get his 1k season that I think people are getting too hung up on in thinking he was some great player in this league.
