Ya know for some reason I had it in my head that Redick and Williams were freshmen on the last Duke team that won the championship. I didn't realize it was in 2001. Sucks for them that they never even got them to a championship game, especially with all the "great 1-2 punch" talk we heard for their whole Duke careers.

As a fellow big man, I feel pretty bad for Sheldon Williams he busted his ass on offense the whole tournament, and played pretty good defense only to lose because the rest of his team could not hit anything?:pinch:h:

aka JJ Redick

Thank you for repeating what I've been saying in all these POTY topics. Everyone can hate Duke all they want and call them overrated all they want, but you don't make the sweet-16 four years in a row based on luck and being overhyped.

Hating college players simply because you don't like powerhouses is silly. They're not being paid money, they're not defecting to other teams for stupid reasons (like in a lot of professional leagues), I just don't get it -- how can you hate someone so much for no reason at all... when they're not even your team's rival, you just hate a school being a contender everytime in recent memory?

oh god, why must you always bring this up? we've argued this ad nauseum. are they a contender? are they really? they haven't made it to the final since 2001. you think a contender would be able to do that...

duke is no better than any other of the "top" teams.

Because they are Duke, silly. :D

Seriously some people just hate media darlings like Duke. Take the NE Patriots for example. Before their current run of Super Bowls, they didn't get that much press outside of Boston. When the run started, all we heard was how great the team was. The over saturation of coverage and some of the fans hyperbole just rubs people the wrong way.

Nothing to get upset over.

    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      We do it all the time on our IT Service desk mailbox to add a reference, in the subject line, once it's been logged and then it's filed into the appropriate sub-folder. Other companies probably do the same thing.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
