For the ultimate revenge, why not attend UCONN? I must confess, I once owned a Duke sweatshirt in middle school but in fairness that was at the very start of the Calhoun era and before I had developed the deep hatred for Duke. It started with Bobby Hurley's face.
this is weird.
Today I was rejected from Duke University as a prospective freshman student. I have loved Duke my entire life and have been a die-hard fan as most of you all are for your beloved huskies. Other colleges have accepted me so this is not the end of the world, however my allegiance to Duke has reached an all time low (Although this is by no means permanent). I don't know these emotions very well, but it feels as if I have been caught in a rat trap intended for Coach K (That made me feel slightly better). After being Lehighed, Mercered, and now rejected from Duke, I begin to wonder if Dook may actually be the correct spelling of the school I have devoted my passion towards.
But I digress...
I am fortunate enough to be attending the games this weekend with my cousin (You all may know him as minidarren) and uncle at MSG and I for the first time in my life actually intend on cheering for Uconn. I have absolutely no regrets about this decision either due to the events which have unfolded the past week. I will wear my husky shirt with pride as I am standing in the garden, hoping that Kemba magic from the garden a few years back will be harnessed, driving Uconn to an Elite 8. This is weird for me, but go UCONN.
I wish all the testiculos and mojo possible upon this team, because things are strange down here on tobacco road, and at least America will be better off with a team in the Elite 8 not from the place of "Iowan Potatoes"... Go Huskies.
It will guide you well.

I only plan on supporting as a means of assisting the team. An extra voice yelling may be of some assistance. I will not piggyback off the success however, just interested in being a playing a role, seeing a good game, and supporting a team whose fanbase has grown upon me recently...
Side note I doubt my ability to run the 50.1 miles, but my plane touches down at 630 and the train I'm catching to Grand central leaves at 648...

He can earn his way in by tomorrow's game. If he starts at Blackrock Turnpike in Fairfield and runs to the Garden he'll have served his penance.
He should stand at the corner of 33/7 and recite the MakersMuppet post while burning a Laettner jersey. Then he can jump on board.
(I kid... Kinda)

I think senhor testiculo will make his flight late.

I know you pain, even if your sports allegiance is misguided , especially as right now Duke is a better academic school than UConn, Coach K aside. I was in the same boat in the early 90’s as I was a big Syracuse fan (still rooted for UConn against Duke though). I actually got into Syracuse; but, the financial aid they offered was a joke and I made the smart decision to go to Storrs instead. I had a lot of fun at UConn; but, I do sometimes wonder how it would have been to go to Syracuse with all of the friends I had who went there. Of course, based on my experience taking several road trips up there, my liver and GPA are thankful that I did not go there full time. That and I look horrible in Orange
