Today it's Duke vs. Carolina

I know it's hyped, but I have lived in the shadow of the rivalry and it's all that they say it is. The greatest rivalry in American sports. You don't have to be a fan of either school to enjoy it. You don't even have to be a fan of college basketball. You just have to watch. The rest takes care of itself. As far as I'm concerned...Go Heels!!!



An awesome video documenting the rivalry has been posted on this guy's channel at Youtube.

NBA STAR AND OBAMA SUPPORTER REFUSES TO PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL ANTHEM

I guess hope and change means many things to many people.

NBA Josh Howard Refuses to Participate in National Anthem "Because I'm Black", Then Says He's For Obama.

Howard, in the number 12 jersey with a towel on his head, is in hot water after this video surfaced showing him disrespecting the national anthem at fellow basketball player Allen Iverson's charity flag football event. Howard says he does not "celebrate" the anthem because he is black and then appears to voice his support for presidential candidate Barack Obama.

OBAMA'S PERSONAL ASSISTANT GETS PUNKED AT NORTH CAROLINA FRAT PARTY

Gaffealot is at it again. This stuff is just too good to make up:

Never mind Barack Obama, the American press is now falling over itself to heap praise on another African-American force on the campaign trail who, according to the New York Times, is “taller, fitter and cooler” than the presumptive Democratic nominee.

Reggie Love is Obama’s 26-year-old 'body man' - the individual expected to be at Obama’s side at all times, ready with briefing notes, umbrellas, protein bars, Nicorette patches and anything else the candidate might need at a moment’s notice. He describes his job simply as “taking care of stuff”.

Love, a 6ft 5in former football player, has a growing fan-base. At a rally in Charlotte, North Carolina, the crowds began chanting “Reggie! Reggie! Reggie!” when they caught sight of him. Even Obama himself admits to being in the thrall of Love’s charisma: “There’s no doubt that Reggie is cooler than I am,” he said. “I am living vicariously through Reggie.”
Cool? Reggie Love is cool? I seem to recall some pictures of Reggie Love being teabagged pasted all over the internet a few years ago. Wait just a moment. Oh, yes, here we go:
Reggie Love was a player on Duke's football team and a walk-on on Duke's basketball team. He once went to a Frat party at UNC, and there were photos taken of him.

Coach K kicked Reggie off the basketball team soon after the photos were all over the internet. It is unknown if that was the only reason he was dismissed from the team, as he also received a DUI that past November.
The photos aren't new. I recall these from a few years ago. They were taken at a frat party at the University of North Carolina where Love, a player for North Carolina's hated rival Duke, got owned by some kids infinitely more qualified to be serving in high office.

Here are a few of the more acceptable photos. The shaming of Reggie Love.
