 | bluetarbaby (8) 08/07/2005 |  F them. I'll walk around their campus wearing a shirt that says, F$%# Dook and their mommas. I've been all over Durham in Carolina shirts. Numbah, that's what a lot of people don't know - they are NOWHERE near crazy. In fact, they're softer than me watching a Glenn Close Porno. They wouldn't say a damn word. They might yell stuff from far, but they wouldn't confront me. They're in our territory and they realize that as soon as they leave the airport and enter the triangle. The evidence is everywhere. Nobody likes them. You're more likely to see a Bin Laden bumper sticker going up I-40 or I-85 than you are a Dook one. Besides, most of them are just rich boys from up north that care more about lacrrosse than they do basketball. And also, a lot of them are Korean and Indian kids that care about nothing but an education. The media paints a different picture, but trust me. These kids are like Ivy League. They wouldn't say ^&$#! Put it this way, Numbah, there is a reason the Dean Dome holds 23,000, NC State's RBC Center holds 19,000, and Cameron Indoor holds 9,000. They're HUGELY outnumbered, and trust me they wouldn't say *&%#! Carolina fans outnumber Dook fans 50 - 1.......IN DURHAM! Durham is a city of 190,000 with 9,000 Dookies.
UPDATE: Numbah, haven't you noticed that no kids who grew up in NC are recruited by Dook? They don't even waste their breath. They see the kid is a native and think, well, we ain't getting him. Most of Dook's fans are in the Tri-State area up north. Which is why when somebody from up there moves down here, they are shocked that everybody hates Dook. They think, well, it's in NC, I better go with the team my new neighbors like - WRONG! You can go to a rural area of NC and get your ass kicked for saying you like Dook. - unless it's racist natives you're telling that, if you catch my drift? Why do you think black players that leave Dook early don't come back like NC guys do to get their degrees? - because it's an uncomfortable place for them - white bred. Nothing against white guys but you see the point. Randolph and Love are the last two dorks from instate to go there. We were awarded the honor of most diverse campus in America for like YEARS in a row. They don't like that. They don't embrace students from in state. Or, black students typically. It's a MAJORLY republican campus. Plus, it's a religious school- Methodist I think. A lot of people don't know that. Kinda ironic that a devil is their mascot ,huh?
UPDATE: NUMBAH, you have come up with something that won't allow to not keep speaking my mind. If you think that could be a dangerous idea, let me put it like this: Did you read the article on espn.com's page 2 entitled these crazies don't measure up? Well, this is how not scary your idea is: during the first matchup, at Dook this past year, there was a group of Carolina fans sitting right in the middle of the student section (crazies),right at halfcourt, holding a huge sign that read, POSERS with arrows pointing in all directions around them. No crazy said a word to them. It was a great game (that we played awfully in and still only lost by 1) so it will probably be on Classic Sports or something. Check it out when it comes on, and you will see those fans with the sign as plain as day! They aren't crazy, they're sweeter than a cupcake.
UPDATE: MINKEYDUDE, I understand your point, but trust me, Dook's campus is not Yankee Stadium or the Garden during a hockey game. There is ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER in carrying out this particular idea. Around here, if you walk past a crazy wearing a Carolina shirt, their eyes are aimed at the sidewalk if you catch my drift. As whine and cheese as they call us, they sure fear us like we're bread and water, ya know? You could have a Carolina frat party on their main plaza, and they'll watch from the side feeling ashamed of themselves.

 | minkey (40) 08/07/2005 |  I don't play games like these any more. Here's why. 1996, fifth row tickets to Yankees/Sox game, at Yankee stadium. I wore a Sox hat and began cheering for them, and during the second inning I got hit in the head with a water bottle. I turned around to look for the culprit but what was I gonna do? I've got a bunch of rabid Yankee fans ready to pounce on me. I'd like to think we live in a civilized society where you can support whichever sports team you wish - it is, after all, a game - but I later witnessed a worse incident...1998, Rangers/Canucks game, at Madison Square Garden. I wasn't very familiar with it but I knew there was some big rivalry there. Well there was like one Canucks fan in the place, and this guy was pretty lit up and being real obnoxious. Screaming, swearing, flaunting his Canucks jersey in everyone's face as they were winning...until halfway through the third period when one particular Rangers fan punched the guy so hard in the face that he fell over the balcony...guy had to be carried out of the Garden.
