Well, I have been booted from Sports Fan for the second and final time. I could never get a straight forward answer of why I got the boot like Dane Huffman gave me the last time it happened. I should have known not to let the trolls get to me, but I couldn't resist. So, now I am here in my new and final place for all things ACC......and a little of everything else.
I promise to keep it as clean and classy as I can.
Looking forward to the upcoming football season and the smack talk that goes with it. It is bowl or bust for Duke this year.....hopefully we can finally break this streak.
Go Duke!! ;D

Welcome aboard BP! Glad to have you. I would like to say that I agree with your statement about Duke Football, I don't have "high" expectations, but I expect a bowl this year.

Of course, 90% of the garbage comes from either Sassie or SAC under a variety of names. That could have been a good site (as GOLO once was) but they've managed to pretty much kill it. Welcome home. |

Have to agree - I don't care what team anybody pulls for, but I'm as sick of "pastel pansy" as I am cracks about bass fishing. Must everything there deteriorate into a kindergarten mudsling? Now, "deteriorate" may not even touch it, as most of the posts the last few days seem to be starting off in high gear on the juvenile front. Welcome, bpayne. RE: Duke Football 2012 - With a coach like David Cutcliffe, any team would have a chance. Because Duke is Duke, they seem to have a smaller margin for error in recruiting, and recruiting is what college ball is all about. Wouldn't surprise me a bit to see Duke go anywhere from 6-8 wins and get a bowl (and, no, I haven't researched their schedule and analyzed their opponents' opponents' projected strength of schedule - Duke is just that damn sneaky in football sometimes).  |

Well, just out of curiosity, I went over to WRAL for the first time in months. Man it's really aweful on there! Apparently I'm still banned, because I tried to post and got the classic, "You have been banned from commenting." Here's what I was going to say: It's been a while since I viewed this forum. I was quickly reminded why I never bother to read this forum anymore. For adult discussion about ACC sports without the immaturity, please visit accsports.proboards.com/index.cgiOh well, I tried. |

LOL I post similar things over there from time to time...I even started a thread the other day and it was quickly removed.
Oh, Marty, you forgot the one for Duke "Lee says Hi".

The Pastel Pansy, Lee says Hi, bass fishing, K's back, Flagship......all of it was getting annoying anyway, but I am still not sure which one was the dagger post. I will admit, I cross the classy line from time to time, but the stuff that is all over there now is just stupid. There has not been any actual sports talk in some time. It is cool to lay some smack down, but you have to know your stuff before you do.
All it takes is for one guy to just flag all of your posts and they ban you. It's cool to me though, it is just one less hit they will get on their web page. With Twitter and all the other great sports outlets, I can get all the info I need. The only reason I was ever on WRAL to begin with was because I am a native who has always used WRAL as my local news and sports source. I no longer need the sports info they provide.

Just peeked in The Wolves Den, some skidmark calling himself Jacob Summers or some similar has commandeered the State forum with bits and pieces of his paper that he's going to turn in at the start of 5th grade about what he did last summer.

Yeah, I noticed that the other night. It's pathetic really. I'm so glad Tizu started this forum.
