In Tulsa last night the place was packed with Jayhawk fans who drove four hours to get $40 tickets to the game. It was lovely. Win by 20.

The beat the Spartans like they were their girlfriends.

Please, quit trying to inject common sense and the obvious into a discussion about liberal actions and motivations.

Upstate Greenville is in my opinion really much more like NC than SC, it’s politically different and it’s different as far as allegiance to sports teams. It’s ACC territory, being close to nearby Clemson. Clemson fans absolutely hate USC. You should see the antics during the annual game in their long football rivalry.

The difference between driving to Greensboro from Durham via I-40 West and driving to Greenville, SC from Durham via I-85 South is about two hours.

As much as this bizarre and stupid NCAA tourney move hurt Greensboro, it didn’t hurt Duke. Duke draws a substantial number of fans wherever they play.

So, sorry Duke fans. Need to find something else to blame the loss upon.

Rogressivism has always been a cancer but there was a time when not all was cancerous. Cultural Marxism basically began with the goal of fostering dry rot in the nation’s bones on behalf of the Soviets but even they could not anticipate where the trajectory would take them. Basically starting out as too traitorous to trust they have of their own accord become too stupid to live. But it did not come upon them all at once because if it had they might have jumped out of the frying pan.

Did anyone notice that if not for a good bit of help from the guys in striped shirts, UNC would have lost to Arkansas. That would have had the two ACC titans losing to two mid-level SEC teams and the mighty ACC being totally out of the tournament.

“Progressivism” ... I hate typos.

Yeah, I saw the charge they didn’t call right at the end. After that, it went from tied to NC wins by free throws. Arkansas missed some key shots, though.

Duke lost? Didn’t even make it to the 2nd weekend?

But the sun came up this AM.

Not at Duke. They are still in their snuggies tucked away in their safe places.

I hear there is to be a protest rally later this week, demanding a do-over.

**But the sun came up this AM.**

And it was a little brighter than normal here in Columbia, SC.

Go Cocks!

SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC! SEC!

If only Arkansas didn’t melt down late, they would have gone 3-0 against the ACC this weekend.

I know!

Though the way we played this weekend I like our chances against y’all more than the second time we played this year. UF took us to the woodshed!

Liberals are hypocrites: Boycott North Carolina, yet support a political party that receives millions from repressive governments and treats the most misogynistic religion on Earth with reverence.

And their next two games are at Allen Fieldhouse East, 40 miles from campus. KU never seems to have to travel far for their games. Big 12 minus 2 basketball tournament is always in KC too.

UF certainly benefitted from having their two games in Orlando.

Duke didn’t play up to their standards, imo.
Had they done so they probably would have won.
