Every NCAA decision, every ESPN show is designed to be advantageous to and/or hype up Duke and their angelic on a pedestal persona. Ex) Sellers suspended the following tourney for one game by the righteous NCAA days before the tourney started. Wait? Why not a regular season game if they were going to do anything? He gets off scot free if they didn’t make the tourney? I don’t think any other player has ever had a suspension in the following year’s tourney happen to them. Crime - the preceding year he dribbled Laettners head on court. That tourney where Sellers had to sit out a game Laettner purposely stomps on the chest of an opponent laying on the floor. Interesting!! Penalty - nothing. How can this be? NCAA committee- uh, well uh, a foul was called on Laettner so it was taken care of during the game. No foul was called on Sellers. What???? The goal is to help Duke (a good team which many would like or dislike anyway for normal basketball reasons) be a ratings bonanza. Let no college fan be neutral about Duke!! Everyone must passionately want them to win or lose. The NCAA and ESPN are on the hope they win (and we’ll do everything to help them win) side if you don’t know. Their big gun in this campaign is Vitale. He’ll bring up Duke 20 hours a day. from the tip-off to the buzzer beater of a game between Arizona and Memphis for example. He’ll also tell you about the PG’s grandfather who he knows and who had a stellar coaching career at Corn Farms HS in the 70’s but that is just Vitale doing his best to not cover the actual game. Do you get it now? [/QUOTE]
