That is all.












GO BUTLER!

LOL - no doubt!

If you guys want to hate on them for going to class and winning games, then that is your problem.







I agree, Go Bulter!

The Butler players that had class today, attended class.

Go Butler

Should have been a flagrant foul on DUKE - thomas

So fucking close. WTFG Butler! Great run.

Duke rhymes with puke.

Go figure.

Great job Butler!

Fuck Duke & the NCAA for what is next to come!

cheering for Duke is like cheering for a child abuser. Hope to see more mid majors in the Final 4. Maybe next time they can win it all.

So...why do people hate Duke? Is it because the media hypes them like crazy?

I have hated them since 1991 when they had douche bags like Christian Laetner & Bobby Hurley, then Steve Wojocherskukeyiekywikwuiwi & now Jon Scheyer.

How is Scheyer a douche?

Yeah, I don't get this hate for Duke University? They're college kids too trying to accomplish their dream. A lot of hard work growing up was put into what they did tonight.

Anyways, congrats to Duke. They won me second in my bracket...and mula to boot, after the shittiest bracket I have ever had lol! Also congrats to Butler. They did the mids proud. We'll get one one day...

Yankees, Cowboys, Duke, Satan, Hitler, Child Molesters...

I'm not a Duke fan by any means, but I never understood the hate.

The reasons I always hear is "the media overhypes them every year". Like that is their fault. Like Duke's players and Coach K control ESPN, CBS, SI, etc...


"They players are douches" - really how? Because they don't play the street ball that you are used too? Because they play fundamental ball? Are a good team with a bunch of white boys?

Their players are a bunch of rich prep tards who got everything handed to them" - really? I wasn't aware that going to a private school for free because of basketball talent meant your team had money...



All of the reasons are pretty dumb if you ask me.

Hating Duke is kind of like all the hatred of U of Iowa on certain boards, really.

Not really. The way Iowa fans troll UNI fans, and the way a certain football and new basketball coaches speak of UNI, some of the hate...not all...is warranted.

I don't hate Duke, I just root against them - in large part because I'm a UConn fan. UConn and Duke have met a few times in the NCAA tourney.

I respect Dukes program and Coach Kzryzewski, I just like to see them lose.

Love Duke. The hate for them is because their players are white, and go against the standard.

That is an absolutely stupid statement

I'm from North Carolina, you either 1) love Duke or 2) hate Duke. Luckily, my parents raised me right.

I hate the way Coach K "works the refs." I hate the douchiness of the players at Duke (all you have to do is watch them play). I hate the way they play the game (live by three, die by the three--unfortunately they live more than they die). I especially hate their fans. I hate that Duke University was originally founded as Trinity College in my hometown of Trinity, NC... I hate them slapping the court. Chris Collins is a prick.

Simply, I hate the University of New Jersey at Durham.

Does that clear it up?

And Carolina.

Coach Shishefski is the reason people hate rats.

This I understand, the same can be said for any rivalry there (Michigan/OSU, Iowa/Iowa State etc...)

So you mean doing exactly what every other coach in the nation does? You show me a coach that doesn't "work the refs" and I'll show you a team that would lose to Bryant or NJIT.

ASUMountaineer wrote:I hate the douchiness of the players at Duke (all you have to do is watch them play).

What about them? I watched them 11 times this past year, excluding the tourney, and I didn't really see anything from them that I didn't see from other teams. I saw they were a lot more white than all the other teams. Play a lot more of a "team style" than the other teams. I saw they seemed to play with more heart than the other teams. Their movements didn't always look smooth like the other teams, but they were effective.

ASUMountaineer wrote:I hate the way they play the game (live by three, die by the three--unfortunately they live more than they die).

Do you hate every team that does that? There are a lot of teams that shoot a lot of threes. The fact that Duke makes them is what makes you hate them. Going off of regular season stats Duke was 64th in 3pts attempted but was 24th in % made at 38.5. You're a Wake fan right? I think the issue you have is that Wake only shot 31% from 3, or 282nd in the nation.

I hope you hated Butler in the post season, they shot more threes than any other team during post season play...15 more than the second most Dayton, and 19 more than Duke. The difference is Duke made just as many as Butler with 19 less shots. If you go by 3 point attempts per game Duke shot 18 per game in the post season (74th in the nation) and Butler shot 22 (41st). During the regular season Duke was 81st at 20 per game and Butler was tied with them at 20.


I understand your point, but when actually looked at your point isn't all that valid as for living and dying by the three.

ASUMountaineer wrote: I especially hate their fans.

I understand this. I can't stand Cowboy, Cubs, UNC, Iowa, OSU, USC, Yankmee, White Sox, Notre Dame....I could go on for hours in terms of fan bases I don't like.

I don't understand this, apparently there is more to this story?

ASUMountaineer wrote: I hate them slapping the court.

Go to most defensive camps and this is something that is taught. It gets the body low and in the right position. I do agree, it is annoying to see though.

Chris Collins is a prick.

Agreed.

ASUMountaineer wrote:Simply, I hate the University of New Jersey at Durham.

Don't understand this one.

ASUMountaineer wrote:Does that clear it up?

Kind of, but a lot of it still doesn't make sense to me. However, you are allowed to hate who you want.

People hate Duke for the same reason they hate the Yankees.........jealousy.

These people wish their team had a coach with the ability to recruit, teach and work the refs like Coach K does. They also wish their team's game were on national TV every weekend and were talked about everday on Sportscenter, etc...

They also wish their team had 27 world championships or 4 NCAA championships.
