Mason “Ma$e” Plumlee commits to Duke
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, February 28th, 2008

Everybody knows that Duke has the horses on the perimeter to challenge any team in the nation.

But to be honest, Duke fans were more than a little concerned when two years in a row our prime Big Man targets, Patrick Patterson and Greg Monroe, decided to play ball elsewhere.

It didn’t help either that our rival, [...]


DeMarcus Speaks on the Two Game Slide
Posted by Lake Arlington | Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Somebody has to do something here. Hopefully this public statement from the captain will bear fruit.

“Whatever it is that’s going on that’s keeping us from playing at the level we need to play at, we have to address it and take ownership of what’s going on. We have to hate this. We have to [...]


Super Ugly: Duke drops second straight
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, February 21st, 2008

I know that it’s tough to win on the road in the ACC, but, Dammit, Duke shouldn’t be losing two straight to unranked teams. So I’m flipping through my tivo “To Do” list, looking for this Duke game against Miami tonight and I notice that it’s just not there. Aww hells no, is [...]


Yawn: Duke whips Maryland again
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, February 14th, 2008

I think this bum Cliff Tucker pretty much sums up the dynamic between Maryland and our stalkers in a half shell, those idiot Murrland Terps:
“I cannot stand Duke.” Tucker said. “I tell people all the time, if they gave me a scholarship (yeah right) and that was my only Division I scholarship, I’d go Division [...]


UNC shows little heart as Duke rolls 89-78
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, February 7th, 2008

The way I see it the difference in the game was that Duke came out with Kurt Angle’s three I’s: Intensity, Integrity and Intelligence, three adjectives most UNC fans are likely unfamiliar with.

But seriously, this game was a relative snoozer from the middle of the first half. You knew Duke was going to [...]


I just noticed, Vitale is gone
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, February 5th, 2008

Yeah, I read about Dick Vitale’s voice issue. It didn’t phase me that much to be honest. Ultimately, I’m luke warm to Mr. Vitale.

Yeah, he brought some excitement to college hoops back in the day, but truth be told, the game sells itself nowadays. This aint the 80s. We don’t need [...]


Bobby Knight out at Texas Tech
Posted by Lake Arlington | Monday, February 4th, 2008

With Bob Knight you have to expect the unexpected. As such, the General is out at Texas Tech.

Don’t worry Indiana errrr Texas Tech fans, Bob Jr. Jr. Patrick Knight will take over for his pops. I don’t know much about Pat, but if he’s half as wild as pops then I can’t wait [...]


Two words for Maryland fans: DeMarcus Nelson
Posted by Lake Arlington | Monday, January 28th, 2008

By the time you read this post all the early model compact and sub-compact American cars that Maryland “students” lit on fire “in protest” for Duke’s win should burning out and many of the now detoxed drunken thugs with books should be posting bail.

So that means that Duke must have won, right? Well, yes, [...]


Duke handles foolishness and Va Tech 81-64
Posted by Lake Arlington | Friday, January 25th, 2008

I like Virginia Tech. They play hard, have a genuine coach in Seth Greenberg and truthfully have shocked some people since they entered the ACC a few years back. With that said, what the hell was that last night?

It looked like Thug Terp ball in Blacksburg. I mean, why does a team [...]


Zoubek breaks his foot again?
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

Damn. This cat Zoub just can’t catch a break.

Well, maybe “catch a break” wasn’t the best way to say it, but you know what I mean. I said it before that Duke should go to the small ball express this year because it suits the Duke personnel. At this point, we literally [...]


Louisville at Kentucky: Who sucks more?
Posted by Lake Arlington | Friday, January 4th, 2008

The battle for the tallest midget in college hoops begins on Saturday when Louisville takes on Kentucky at Rupp Arena in Lexington.

Louisville 9-4, has lost to BYU, Dayton, Cincinnati and at Purdue. They’ve beaten Hartford, Jackson State, UNLV, Old Dominion, Miami (OH), Marshall, New Mexico State, Morehead State and Iona.
Kentucky 6-6 (!!!) has lost [...]


Duke Basketball Recruits: Class of 2009
Posted by Lake Arlington | Friday, January 4th, 2008

Any Good Guys fan who has watched Duke this year has to feel pretty good about where we are as a program right now.

The squad is teaming with ballers and interchangeable parts. Coach K is choosing both defensive and offensive flexibility over Duke hoops dogma of the past. Not only that, but you [...]


Trash can of the ACC: Maryland Basketball
Posted by Lake Arlington | Sunday, December 23rd, 2007

I’ll just stick to objective facts here. This is why Maryland Sucks:
1. You’ve got a sweaty Chicken Wing Pimp for a Coach

Gary, put the hoes and chicken wangs down, try recruiting for a change.
2. Your team has a zero percent graduation rate (literally, your scholarship players never graduate…from Maryland)

Stay in school, [...]


Pitt downs Duke 65 to 64 in Overtime
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, December 20th, 2007

Daaamn homies, in the first half yall were the mans, homies, now seriously, what the fuck happened to us?

Man, that was a tough loss in the garden. It’s hard to knock the effort of the good guys in blue, after all, a bounce here or there and I’d be talking about a gritty win [...]


The sun came up, water was wet and Duke crushed Albany
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

I know, I know, nobody cares…

It’s true, hell, I don’t even care. Still, I just have to say that after last year, it’s refreshing for a Duke squad to be able to drop a nuclear bomb on a team like that. I mean, these cats posted a clean 111 points on those fools [...]


Classic material: Laettner rips out UK’s heart
Posted by Lake Arlington | Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

People didn’t like Christian Laettner and Christian liked it that way.

Wow… That was pretty gangster, “shoots, scooooooores” was how I remember it on the radio call. He really ripped out the heart of the UK fans and eat it in front of them with some fava beans and a nice chianti.

Go Duke

Marty gets put on ice, out for the season
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

The word out of Durham is that Martynas Pocius will undergo season-ending surgery on his left ankle and right buttock as early as Wednesday.

He originally injured the left ankle in international play back in Lithuania over the summer. His right buttock he injured catching splinter after splinter to his tail piece as a result [...]


Balco T and Heels sit atop both polls
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, December 4th, 2007

The North Carolina Tarheels moved up to No. 1 and former No. 1 UCLA fell to No. 8 in the latest ESPN/USA Today coaches’ poll, released Monday. In addition, North Carolina remained No. 1 in The Associated Press poll. Not bad for the boys in baby blue. After Carolina took the top [...]


Henderson puts it on Davidson as Duke rolls
Posted by Lake Arlington | Monday, December 3rd, 2007

I didn’t see the game due to an electronics malfunction at the crib. I should be pissed, but how can I be too mad at my cable and tivo boxes after they’ve been so good to me throughout the years.

At any rate, the bottom line is that Duke won, which is really all the [...]


Rock Bottom: Harvard smacks Michigan Hoops
Posted by Lake Arlington | Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

When I saw this headline, Men’s College Basketball Scoreboard: Michigan 51 , Harvard 62, I literally had to blink the sleep out of my eyes. Then I went ahead and channeled James Brown via Eddie Murphy, “jumped back, wanna kiss myself…HEEEEY“… That didn’t work.

(Tommy to Michigan administration, coaches and players: “It’s me [...]


Wisconsin travels to Duke for a slaughter
Posted by Lake Arlington | Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

So I waited for that meaningless game between Tech and IU to end. Clearly that joint was all over except for the crying with 5 minutes to go. Predictably, ESPN still didn’t switch to the Duke game. So they tune in and immediately I feel that old school Duke energy [...]


Should Taylor King get more time?
Posted by Lake Arlington | Monday, November 26th, 2007

I read that every single Duke game would be televised this year but I guess not since that Eastern Kentucky v. Duke game was nowhere to be found last night. At any rate, I was happy to peep the box score and see that Taylor King went out there and got his a little [...]


Duke puts that thang on Illinois
Posted by Lake Arlington | Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

I was happy to see the boys in Blue handle their business last night against those Fightin’ Illini en route to a sound 79-66 decision.

——————————————————————————–

VISITORS: Duke 4-0

TOT-FG 3-PT [...]


Elliot Williams is a Duke Blue Devil!
Posted by Lake Arlington | Thursday, November 1st, 2007

Thank goodness. To say we needed Elliot Williams is a gross understatement.

I’m definitely happy that he choose to lace em up with the Duke Blue Devils in 2008, we needed that. Everything I’ve seen and read about this 6-foot-4 combo guard is great for Duke. First, he’s committed to academics which is [...]


Greg Monroe chooses “Not Duke” to play his college hoops
Posted by Lake Arlington | Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

Sun-uv-a-bitch!!!! Right now would be a good time to go ahead and hit this:

Oh no, my bad, I meant, it’s time to hit this:

What in the hell is going on in Durham?!!!!! Why can’t we land a quality big man? I mean, seriously. Wasn’t it last spring when everyone said it [...]
