"This Is Why Duke Sucks" And Other Fine Selections

The NCAA Tournament officially wrapped up this past Sunday and Kentucky Wildcat fans everywhere are looking forward to a great basketball season next year.

Okay, that's not really true. The Tournament is alive and kicking, but Big Blue will have to sit out the rest of the dance. The loss was a hard one to swallow - what with Kansas steamrolling over UK, 88 to 76.

I was heartbroken.

The Cats just didn't appear to have the get up and go they normally have during March Madness.

That said, at least we can be proud our team made it past the first round.

San Antonio's Express-News had a nice little ditty Sunday about Duke's first round loss. The writer says the loss is akin to recent stock market "corrections" involving computer giant Dell.

I don't really know about that, but I do know I was pretty tickled pink about the upset.

It appears I'm not alone.

Basketball fans everywhere hate the Blue Devils, and they're using their creativity to express the sheer disgust they have for that team in Durham.

This little You Tube gem is a riot. It definitely deserves some pub, just in case you haven't seen it.




Here's a little nugget that spotlights the rivalry between the Blue Devils and the Tar Heels. Considering I was born in Charlotte, I've always taken up for UNC. You will, too, after checking out this sweet piece of editing magic.



There's also some great pieces from Cat fans out there. Some celebrate the team's accomplishments...



Others aim to rally the troops against Tubby.



And yes, I'm sparing you from The Shot. It's out there, too. Please, don't click on that link unless you're a masochist.
