Smell that?

It’s the midnight oil, baby!
Oh yeah.  Business…here’s a look at Christian Laettner’s brief return to the ACC.
Well, there should be two pieces up tomorrow and another on Thursday.  Not sure I’ll be able to link until late tomorrow night, so check Page 2, should you be interested in such things.
And now, I go to sleep.  If you’re in the Triangle, catch me on 96 Rock tomorrow morning at 8.  Assuming I can wake up in time, of course.

  1. Oh, Bomani…nice article but to call Laettner’s foot tapping on Timberlake’s chest the most vile happening on the basketball court ever is simply ridiculous. Didn’t mean to hurt him and didn’t. Look at the tape of the game and notice the act he is reacting to…and I know you know, but like all UNC and Kentucky fans you just don’t want to admit, remember or talk about it. Anyway, like I said, good article. I’m sure Christian will like it too. Lastly, Christian, while a strange man, is a good one too. His investments in Durham and his donations to Duke show that his black hat is a prop more than a permanent fixture. When MJ invests in Chapel Hill (not counting a failed restaurant) and donates multi-seven figure gifts to UNC I’m sure that might show up in one of your articles. Oh, and congrats on the tourney win…as a good Duke fan (and yes there are good Duke fans) I was working in the yard.

  2. Tremendous love to Joakim’s interpretive dance. It combined the sweeping grace of Coming To America’s group dance scene with the social acuity of the Cornholio uniform.
    Well done my friend, you almost made Horford pee his pants during the post-game interview.

  3. I have to admit it yeah I hate DUKE and I detest Christian Laettner or shall I say Christina Laettner…from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.
    Typing that felt good.
    (RELAX, RELATE, RELEASE!)

  4. He probably thought it would make a good audition tape to send to Vince McMahon. He’s got the stomp down pat, so between that and drawing boos, he’s already 75% of the way to Wrestlemania.

  5. Kirk,
    You get the feeling that as big a villain as people are making Jo out to be that every fan would kill for someone that cares about the game as much as him.
    A quality NBA coach is going to harness his ability to run with the break and focus the hustle. Imagine a self-actualized Varejao with real basketball skills.

  6. Most underrated part of the Cornholio episode:
    “Senor Beavis! Donde esta tu hall pass?”
    Evan, you might very well be correct. Unfortunately, I watch college basketball about as often as I watch midgets pole vault. Despite having had ample opportunity to see both in grad school, that was ultimately not very often.
