Normally, I would be on board with the smart fan take on UNC v Duke hate. But Duke went up a notch when they took our corner on the OAD and basically copied everything we did...la familia/the brotherhood, pro combines, celebs at the games. And got none of the hate we got for it.
So yeah, the Dukies are public enemy #1 now.
I had a box of 100 copies of The Quiz, which I had pre-printed at Kinko's in Lexington 2 days prior, in booklet form with baby blue covers.
With a smile, I walked up and down the aisle of the shuttle, and handed them to every person who would take one. "Tar Heel Basketball: The Facts Behind The Myth".
The bus got silent as people skimmed it over. Then, various curses and sounds of the papers being pitched to the ground as those idiots realized what they were reading.
After the victory, we dropped copies all over Franklin Street, and all over The Carolina Inn. I'm not usually a big shit-talker, but had endured so much over the years from tar heel fans at tournament sites, those F'ers deserved every bit of it.
77 and 95 made me sick - my 2 worst losses ever at the time. But it wasn't until the 98 FF - both before and after the games - that I really experienced the range of their fans initiating shit-talk.
It was astonishing, really - as if we were on Candid Camera. Like, are you really effing serious with this?
The capper was after the 98 semis, 2 UNC fans approached us out of nowhere to inform us that Utah would beat us on Monday.
I said, maybe so, but titles = 6-3. No, we have 4. No, you have 3 --> 57, 82 and 93. I know your history better than you do. Then they claimed the Helms in 24. First I'd ever heard of it.
The ensuing research, mostly spearheaded by atlantahappycat, led to The Quiz.
I get the Duke hate and am there 100%. The sainthood and sanctimony is sickening. But I've hated UNC for decades longer, and expect to have to hate them long after K is gone and Duke is no longer a threat.
