Yeah you make a good point. I won't use it on here whenever I swing by. However, "dook" (just using it as an example) is definitely not the worst nickname we've come up for you, just like "tar hole" is probably not the worst you got for us haha.
Just as long as you acknowledge that if this were thr and you were a Duke fan, your intentional jab in the post above would have never happened because you would have been banned long ago.

I'm aware. Though I'm still relatively new to these boards, I know the mindset on THR isn't exactly ideal. I usually hang out on the other boards. Better posters and we don't buy the crap that's being taken verbatim on THR.

Keysersosay...lol.

"I actually started this thread about CAROLINA recruiting and along comes a dookie to hijack it and discuss the latest on a DOOk recruit . I really do not give a rats *** about that or your opinion on what dook's latest recruiting looks like. There is ample opportunity to discuss that subject on your board , although the obsession with THIS board on the Devils Illustrated mess is well known and documented.

They have a 54... FIFTY FOUR!!!! page thread that drones on and on and on with quotes from posters on this board and then endless pathetic comments from them on OUR comments here....talk about obsession!!!

In the future if you want to hazard a guess on who you think CAROLINA will sign next...ya know the POINT of this entire thread... then feel free to do so. Otherwise any "discussion " about a topic( who will DOOK sign next) that is really not a part of this thread, and quite frankly of ZERO interest to most of us, should be confined to the pages of your own sites."

Yeah, we are obsessed. Lol. Naww, we just like the free entertainment that the idiots at THR provide and we also knew that the THR quotes thread would rustle some Tar Hole jimmies. Guess we reeled you in...Lolll

But you clowns really do provide such great ammunition. Sheer joy and laughter. Haaaaaa.

Check out this doozy from RR. This was in response to the question who will give UK the most trouble next season. The refs. Haaaa. Several of them say that too. Yeah, UK never gets any home cooking, right? They are so paranoid. I get so sick of jealous fans of other teams always claimed my that the committee always gives Duke the "easy path." What a joke.

"Referees no doubt, and the selection committee. We get screwed by both every tournament every season. The towns season should've been a title. But the committee gave us the most difficult road and gave Duke a cakewalk to the title as if they were the number 1 overall seed. And the refs gift wrapped the game to wiscy because Duke had no chance against us, then the refs gift wrapped the title game to duke. Never seen a more obviously blatant, rigged, controlled winner of a final 4 in all my years. All 3 games were rigged all in duke's favor. Truly unbelievable."

"UVa after losing their front court and Brogden are ranked #4 and we are #5? LOL

Ky at 3 is a freakin JOKE, has to be, that team will be fortunate to finish the season top 15, write that down and tell me I am wrong at the end of next season's regular season! Indiana IMO can be bad ***, don't sleep on Oregon or UCLA and we should know what Nova is bringing back. I am not totally sold on kansas but they darn sure belong in the top 10 more than Ky.

Duke has a lot of young raw talent and they wil blow some teams out bad but they wil also slip up. IMO, they wil need yet another favorable seeding by the NCAA to win it all, sad thing is I expect them to get that favorable seeding. They were in a better situation when they were not expected to be the team to beat, they will have a target on their backs all next season and freshmen struggle with that unless they are extreme talents that can poise extreme mismatch situations. Not sure that defines this duke team but I am glad they are starting out 1.

I am going to say it right now, IMO we have a great shot at repeating last season and maybe winning that one last game. We have some question marks but I LOVE our potential answers! I do believe we have a chance to be even better this season than we were last season, need to see how some things develop this off season with some individual players but one constant we have seen with Roy is his players get more productive with few exceptions. When I consider the typical development curve of Roy's players it gives me reason to believe we could be a better team next season than we were this past season. I can't wait to see!!!"

lol even the Michigan State game was rigged? Because that was clearly a nail-biter! As far as Duke receiving an easier path, that is very, very questionable. Just look at the KenPom ratings for the teams Kentucky and Duke defeated. Yes, we got a favorable FF matchup with MSU, but we still beat 3 top 10 teams in the KenPom ratings. The rating of our 2nd rd matchup was comparable to Kentucky's Sweet 16 game - and our sweet 16 opponent in Utah had a very similar rating to UK's Elite 8 opponent, Notre Dame.

Kentucky:
Cincinnati- 34
West Virginia - 26
Notre Dame - 9

Duke:
San Diego State - 27
Utah - 8
Gonzaga - 7
Michigan St - 15
Wisconsin - 3

UK easily had the weakest #2 in Kansas (26-8 before the tourney). The three other #2 seeds in Virginia (29-3), Gonzaga (32-2), and Arizona (31-3) probably all would have been the overall #1 seed in the 2016 tournament. Also, Iowa State was ranked 9th by the committee on their S curve - meaning they were the top 3 seed. Never mind facts though, feelings are more important. Wish I could offer them a hug and a tissue.

My favorite part of going over there was giving likes to the really awful posters because the likes were sincere. I would like a post by the keysor simply because it made me laugh really hard, so liking it seemed a good idea. Occasionally I would get reprimanded for liking someone's post that didn't want it. I would like those too because they made me laugh even harder.

In an unrelated note, I am very easily amused. :D

Haven't checked that board in about a week, but just unearthed a couple of gems:

Gary: And yeah, dook leads for Carter.
Go with the safe bet so you can say you know something? Earth shattering.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this what he always does when he's not spreading complete misinformation?

Dgheel57: Gary's tidbits as you call them have been spot on at times,prove they haven't .

Amazing. Further proof their mods aren't the brightest.

Anybody been over to RR since it was leaked Jarrett Allen is going to Texas? I know its been known he was staying in the state of Texas for a while, but some UK fans seemed to think there was still a chance. Just wondering how those ppl are taking the news.
When was it leaked that he's going to Texas? I checked RR out a couple times yesterday but haven't been there today

ESPN already reporting Allen is heading to Texas; RR can cry and whine some more if they want to
If they can stop crying and whining about Duke long enough. Have you seen their thread titled "Duke--Serious Question". It's as laughable as most of the threads posted on THR

Also, thanks for the shoutout @Hark_The_Sound_2010. Was interested to see that @skysdad and I are on your tiny little mind.;)



Look I know there are a good number of posters that don't care for me or what I have to say and I understand why they don't. Heyman25 gave me wise advice not to even look at what they post about Duke over there because it's generally worthless. info and they probably think the same thing about what I post. They banned both Heyman25 and myself and it had to come from what we posted from here a long time ago and that's okay because their mods have their standards and our mods have theirs and it's a world of difference between the two and that's part of the reason we get the trolling trash from them because they know where the line is and they will go all the way to the edge. But that shows the integrity and class of our mods. I wish the best for Mike Irby and hope and pray he beats cancer just as much as I want gotta to beat it but Mike is who he is. I guess one thing that they will post over there but they do have the sense not to post that I get defensive about is when they really disrespect Coach K. Coach K is neither Satan or Hitler and he has been referred to them in comparison and not one mod called them out on it. We make fun of hof coach roy williams a lot but I have never seen any comparisons of him to anyone that is so evil as Satan or Hitler. They talk about Coach K's profanity. Well to be honest I don't care for it myself but that's Coach K and to be honest and truthful profanity is about the worst thing they can find on the man they are searching. Now Dean Smith in the eye's of tar heel nation did no wrong and yes let the man rest in peace but he had some skeletons that just weren't talked of. Most coaches use profanity but some how Coach K is targeted for it. hof coach roy williams has used of colorful language in interviews where kids are listening in and the excuse is that he is so passionate and that he emotions get away with him. What's up with that. I have never heard Coach K use off color language in an interview , he may have but I've never heard it. One more thing before I close this dsouther novel. I really think some of thr posters may actually know me. The reason being is that I am short about 5'7" or 5'8" at the most. You see I've been called a pos and that may be true. A mental midget which may be true and a miserable midget which is definitely not true because I'm a very happy man. I'm a Duke fan. I can't help it. It's my nature. So for any thr poster who wonders over here thinking they are fooling us with their fake flags of truce and phony wisdom we are on to it. Sooner or later you will step across that line so enjoy yourselves until then. So if I'm entertainment to you that's fine. I am what I am and will be that way until one of our mods tell me to change my style and tone it down a little. Until then I will be the same and if I could post at thr I really wouldn't because believe me or not I do respect others home board and if I can't post what they want me to post I choose not to post at all. For those of you who made it through this marathon post thanks. OFC

Sky maybe you are not a really tall man in statue but you certainly stand tall in the saddle and you shouldn't give any of those cheating dweebs a second thought. Also I don't think you'll ever need to worry about one of our Mods asking you to tone it down and if anything I think you should be more vocal.

More from gary:

"Harrison Barnes...seems to be particularly relishing situations that put Kyrie guarding him (or attempting to) and vice versa. And give the Warriors credit, they find the mismatch.

Speaking of which, I remember reading somewhere that he and Kyrie were supposed to go to dook together --- or at least that was what Kyrie thought. Guess you can't always count on those 'cruitin' package deals... :cool:"

Yeah. They were never a package deal. What a dork. And if you consider Barnes anything more than an average complimentary player on a loaded team, I am not sure who you are watching. I am not saying that because he went to uNC, I am saying that because that's what he is.

All that aside, they got Barnes for two seasons, we had Irving for 11 games. They have the same number of championships in that their time in college. Zero. So not much to beat their chests about.

He brings up the Barnes recruitment every chance he gets. Unfortunately, most actually over there call him out on it saying dude, it was one recruitment where something like that happened and it was 7 years ago (2009).

Oh look....K's win % at Duke is higher than Roys at UNC. Guess that shows if you cherry pick stats you can always make one person out to seem better.

Except K is clearly better(more wins, more championships, more NBA allstars....)

the second post is gunslingerdick's response to this first one. L
Hilarious how he says OKC might go after him if they lose Durant as if he would be Durant's replacement. Lolllll:

"I think Barnes did the right thing by not signing that extension. Lets say GWS wins it, what's left now? Win it again and not get paid? Go somewhere so he can get the max deal? It's all about the Benjamin's baby. Right now there's a few teams with Playoff hopes that can signed HB for the max. Plus, he's looking to be that MAN. Show that he can be the 1 or 2 scoring option. Place where he can be marketable. That's place is Charlotte Hornet. HB will get max pay it's all about his brand now and that mean getting paid. Don't be surprise HB ends up in a Hornet uniform where he will start and be a much needed upgrade at the SF spot."

"I agree with that and I said it in another thread. He will have won 2 championships with the warriors. I would think that's enough of the "winning" and now he'll look to be a part of his own "Big 3" instead of the 4th wheel for the warriors. Personally, I don't really want to see him go to Charlotte. I just don't have much faith in that organization. I would like to see him in Boston or Memphis. I think he would do well in either spot. Also, the Lakers seem to be after him and the Clippers want him just to take him away from GS. I wouldn't really get too excited at him joining either of the L.A.teams. OKC might also pursue him if they lose Durant."

I can't believe i'm saying this but i dont have a problem with either of those two statements. He most likely will get a near max deal. He probably doesnt' want to be anything less than a 2nd or 3rd option on any team and probably wants to be a top option if possible. He will have plenty of teams after him, but only a handful will be playoff contenders. And while i don't think OKC loses Durant, if the does leave, they will need to replace him- one person doesn't replace a KD type, but he would be a good start. Makes me sick to think about propping him up but he is available this off season.
