Yeah, I know that there are a lot of these anti-Duke lists out there. But this one has a few items that I had forgotten or didn't know.

How about the incident between Laettner and Rod Sellers? They were wresting for the ball and Sellers pushed Laettner's head to the floor. When Laettner got up he stomped on Seller's chest. Seller's got ejected and Laettner, nothing. The next year, Sellers was suspended for the first game of the tournament because of the previous year's ejection. Laettner gets the glory as the golden boy of college basketball. What a punk!

If I'm not mistaken, it is a rule that all threads referencing Chrissy and the Sellers incident must be accompanied by a photo of the same:

And someone must always make a comment about how weird/creepy Hurley's face is.

B*tch deserved it.

and Sellers pushed Laettner's head to the floor

Push? Um. Strange choice of verb.

What about the nugget that the Duke student section has been cut in half due to lack of interest?
