I can say the same except for the paint part (old gold walls probably wouldn't look too hot :laugh:) I've got Tech basketballs, footballs, signed and unsigned posters from the last 6 years. I've got books, game programs, media guides, pictures with players (from Fan Photo Days). I've got a Tech helmet from the '70s, 2 FB jerseys, a baseball jersey...you name it, I've probably got it.

My collection is a rival, 'cept in the autograph department.

Don't you have an inflatable Buzz?

I've got his stuffed counterpart. :D

me too!!! I have a Georgia Tech shrine in my room at home and our room on campus is the biggest GT sports shrine. I dread moving out at the end of the year cuz we've got LOADS of stuff to take down.

Yea, can't forget Big Bee!

I would greatly appreciate it if UNC would be kind enough to lose to Illinois so if Arkansas pulls an upset this weekend, it won't be less meaningful. Well, that and it would perk my day up Saturday afternoon to prepare for the SEC-CG.

the second string for duke could contend for the acc title

know why?





cause the first string is no better :wave:

You guys better about beating Oral Roberts and Troy State before worrying about the Illini.

Just building the drama, baby. That's all. I cannot tell you how big a headache I now have after seeing the score of the Troy State/Arkansas game. I gotta remember, it's a rebuilding year. :bang:

Just thought I'd remind you of this... first one to do so.

We didn't deserve that. There were a lot of stupid mistakes made and our free throw shooting sucks. We lost that game at the line. But we only lost by 1 point to #17.

Didnt deserve what?

Deserve to win

emme3334 Wrote:Deserve to win

Oh, yeah, that's true. Minnesota didn't really deserve it, neither.

They practically game you guys the game, just like Rutgers did to UNC.

That was probably one of the funnest games to watch (at times) and ugliest at times.

I really don't know what to say. Bosh didn't play to his potential, no one made free throws...sloppy sloppy game on our part.

:eek: I actually thought that was a bright spot for you guys. I thought he was outstanding.

But the real question is, "what is the real reason Nate likes Duke??" because they are winners?? probably...you don't need to know much because it's Duke...you don't need to know what support and team spirit is because when you're Duke, that's unnecessary. You don't need to know what you're talking about because if coach K picked them, they must be good. My guess is 4 years ago you were like "oh look, a good basketball team" and jumped on the band wagon. What is your association with Duke Nate?? Just wondering.

Why don't you just shut the hell up when you have NO IDEA what you're talking about?

MY ASSOCIATION WITH DUKE...

My mom and Dad went to Duke Divinity School.

Both work there now.

I was born in the middle of a Duke-Wake game...

My grandfather and my father were/are both Deans of Duke Divinity School.

Don't mean to sound arrogant, but you pushed me to it, but I know Grant Hill and his family fairly well.

My room looks something like this: Duke bedsheets, Duke pillows, Duke comforter, Duke Blue paint around my room, posters from the last 3 seasons on the wall, Duke border around the top of my room, Duke logos on my windows, a Duke lamp, a signed picture of Grant Hill and a lot of Duke clothing.

I know anything there is to know about any player on this year's team, including their hometown.

I have gone to every Duke home football game possible, and am an AVID Duke football fan. I can name every starter on our team from this year.

I have watched the Laettner "Legacy shot" dozens of times, just for the hell of it.

I've been to at least 5 home games since 97 (which is when I moved here).

IS THAT ENOUGH FOR YOU OR MUST I TAKE PICTURES OF MY ROOM? :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

BTW, I think we won the national championship in 91 and 92, went to the final four in 86, 89, 90, 91,92 and 94 ALL before 4 years ago.

I really don't think you want to challenge my passion for Duke University. :rolleyes:

dont forget the "iron duke" nate...and please please please take pictures of that room and post them!!!!

No, no one in my family is an iron Duke, but if you were serious, I will take pictures of my room and post them... no problem.
