and as Keystone will attest, I'm quite acclimated for taking heat for my views, that doesn't mean I back down.  All in good fun and jest though.

I certainly know, that Duke is the likely winner of this game, but that wont stop me from cheering for Butler.

But if Butler wins,...my oh my, you guys should have to do some kind of Butler dance for me, or something else.

during this whole tournament, I've been an "anyone BUT Duke" fan.

Hi, Jaycee,
Duke is the Muhammed Ali of college basketball-either loved or hated-but watched at 'Showtime.'
As I note you are from Texas and unused to big time quality men's college basketball, I hope you will tune in to see what it looks like-heh heh  Have a great week, Bud   1rob....Go Blue Devils!!!.....OUT   8-)

It's a road day ya'll.

Don't even plan to stay around for a 30 point 'junior varsity intramural' thrashing.

Jaycee;

ACC BABY!!! EVERYONE else is just the 'supporting cast'.

ACC knowledge against her.  Besides, without someone rooting for the other team, there is no rivalry.

so a tit for tat wager, isnt a fair wager.  Keystone, I've been to the horse races once or twice before, that's not how they do it.  I mean do you want a cookie or something?

First we were hated because we were Yanks...then because we were private..haves v have nots. Then we were hated because we were mostly white. North v South. Then we were hated because Coach K spells his name different then he pronounces it. Then we were hated because Coach k wouldn't put up with the refs not calling the games fair. Then they hated us because Coach k talked to the refs...like he's the only coach ever to bend an ear of an official.

Watch the HBO special in the link provided and see where your hate rates

I never said I hated Duke, if indeed you were referring to me.  Hate is a very strong word, and not a word I would reserve, for a team, that I simply have a preference for losing this game.  

I dislike Duke, but not for any of the reasons that you mentioned.

Again, I realize that Butler is the underdog, and that more than likely, Duke will walk away with bragging rights.  Its just I wont be one of the ones applauding them.

Why is it that you loathe Duke? You make the statement but you never exactly tell us WHY in any of your posts?

People who rant and rail against Duke are doing it out of jealousy that their favorite team doesn't have the same success.

i would love to see butler win but trust me it will never happened. duke destroyed west virginia, and butler beat michigan state an overrated team. the real final was duke vs kentucky.

I just don't think it can happen.  I hate Duke too but I think that this is the end of the line for Butler.  Anything could happen I suppose but it is highly unlikely as Duke is too much of a formidable opponent.

You can count me in as one of the many that like to root against Duke basketball.

The funny thing is, I used to root for them ... from afar.  I always tend to side with the higher academic programs when they are matched up against the Athletic Factories masqerading as universities.  That's why I had Cornell making it to the 16.  Hey, I attended a rigorous academic school with Div III sports.  I don't get to watch them on ESPN very often- LOL!

Therefore, I USED to root for Duke ... that is until I moved to the south and actually met Duke alumni and had to deal with their unbelievably irritating arrogance when it comes to their beloved basketball team.

Coach K seems like a great coach and a decent guy.  Most of their players present themselves well and rarely seem to get into trouble.  It's the ALUMNI that I seem to have a problem with!

L-O-L

Go Butler!!  ;)

Holding Duke under 65 points, if they can I think they can win!

Scoring MORE POINTS THAN DUKE DOES!!!! :-D

and I think is playing a sharper game, if they hold Duke below 65 they have a shot, if they hold Duke below 60 they are actually odds on favorites to win.

Duke wins running the floor and Butler favors the low scoring bang it out style, I think they can play it better than Duke can.  All about tempo and style of play, if it is a shooting match Dukes runs away, if it is a body on body game I think Butler handles Duke.

At face value, I think Butler is more focused and a better back side help team.  They play the fundamentals better to this point.

Ivy leaguer?  That makes you book smart nothing more.  Ask the kid that was a Harvard grad and got fired from a Prominant Law practice for not understand HOW to practice law!

It is all about the intangibles.
