Duke Hater Post

Let's face it: One of the best days of the tournament is when the Dukies go down, no matter the round or any biases against the team that does the deed. What is it about them that makes it so easy to dislike?  Jealosy of a perrenial hoops powerhouse?  A long lineage of easily dislikeable players? Coach K's likeness to a rat when he's screaming at the refs for having the audacity to call a blocking foul on a Blue Devil?  The ass-kickings they've handed us recently??  It's all of these things and more.  They're just so....so...Duke.  Ugh. 

So what better scenario could we ask for as Horns fans of the '09 edition?  It's March, so anything can happen, but let's be real: 1 win in the tourney was enough to make most of us happy.  But the reward is a chance to take down the evil empire of college hoops!?!  Well...I'm gonna need you to come in on Saturdaaay. 

So please forgive the negativity...it's Game Day. Let's get it on. Get that Duke hate out there.  You'll feel better once you do.  Here's my personal Top 10 Worst Dukies List to kick start what should be a fun day of dancing....please share yours as well.  Hook 'em!
