    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    Ha ha. I do sense a bias on this board against Duke and State! This is only my perspective from my VERY orange glasses. While K was the face of Duke basketball, he did not transcendent it. It was always Duke. Similarly, Dean was the face of the team, but it was always all about Carolina. I...

    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    That is entirely possible, because I am biased. I just think Spurrier was bigger than the program; he was the subject of conversation. I hope Belichick doesn't remain the subject of conversation. But hey, like you and I said, I am pretty biased.

    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    It seemed like the South Carolina Spurriers to me rather than the South Carolina Gamecocks. When he left, the Gamecocks were back where they started.

    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    As I said, they had some very good years, but it was the Spurrier show, and when he left, success left. Of course when great coaches leave a school, performance can dip, a la Bama, but the Spurrier success seemed short lived to me and he definately overshadowed the program.

    UNC Sports UNC Football Catch-all | Bill Belichick Era underway

    As a North Carolina resident and father of a UNC grad, I want this to work out for y'all, in spite of yesterday's game 😡, so I hope this doesn't turn out like the experiment(s) in Columbia. The legend, not the team, was the story down there. I even remember hearing an announcer saying...

    Off-Topic 583 men in 6 hours

    That sets up another funny scene in the application process. "OK, Mr. Smith. One last question, how, ahem, endowed are you?" "Well, I don't mean to brag, but I'm ENDOWED. We're talking 11 inches." "Alright. That puts you at number 582." "😳"

    I was thinking maybe she chose the order or perhaps it was a lottery system, but I think your idea makes more strategic sense. Can you imagine the application process? "Uh, is that the same ruler you used on that other guy?" I suppose it would be one of the only times a more endowed dude...

    UNC Sports Branding Kenan Stadium?

    Especially the mayo. "Duke's Kenan Stadium" would suck for y'all. It reminds me of what my Tiger bretheren (and sisteren) always say, that we own Willie-Brice.

    They will just follow dear leader, who said the bad parts of the economy are Biden's fault and the good parts are because of him.

    Off-Topic 583 men in 6 hours

    I'm trying to think how this works. First of all, at 37 seconds per guy, there isn't a room full of dudes sitting around chatting, waiting for someone to come in and say, "She's ready. Whose next?" Nope. No time. This is a continuously moving line. When it is your turn, you don't open a...

    Off-Topic Resting heart rate

    Interesting! That has been exactly my observation with respect to beer, higher stress at sleep and higher heart rate, especially as I have gotten older; I am 57.

    Off-Topic Resting heart rate

    I think there is a pretty significant genetic component. Mine is usually between 45 and 50 these days. Back in my 30s it was usually in the lower 40s. While I do run, if you looked at me, you would be more likely to say, "What? HE runs?" than, "Wow. What an athlete!"
