For who are you rooting? I think this is the second time in my life I'll ever have to actually root FOR Duke.

Need a Duke loss to keep my bracket hopes alive.

This is an easy one for me. Duke doesn't bother me. West Virginia has sued us and has the worst fans on the planet. I hope duke wins by 30.

And I want Butler to win it all.

With WVU and Huggy-bear's reputations, along with the super-physical style of defense they play, can you imagine the thug outrage that will ring from Blue Devil nation if they lose?

I'm with you. I don't care how much you hate Duke, you have to root for the ACC team. Plus Huggins is such a piece of shit there is no way I could ever root for him.

Duke, without question.

Definitely Duke!

duke only because each acc win in the bball tourney yields more money for the ACC and BC...

West Virginia. I can't tell you how much I dislike Duke. I'd also root for UConn if they were to play Duke at any point.

This alone is enough to make me root for WVU. Plus I can't fucking stand K, Scheyer, Smith, and especially Singler. Not to mention the floor slapper in a tie on the bench. As much distaste as I have for Huggy-Bear and the 'Eers, I gotta give them the nod this time.

One last thing, apparently people who grow up in the town of Danbury, CT (those of you who have spent time in Fairfield County have to know what a shithole that place is) are evenly split between Duke and UNC fans, despite having no connection to either school. I get texts from a guy I used to work with (and haven't seen in 4 years) every time Duke beats BC. His pain at Duke losing makes the happiness of every toothless yokel worth it.

Incidentally, this Danbury thing led me to meet the biggest douche I've ever known. His sports teams were: Yankees, Lakers, Cowboys, Dook, and the Colorado Avalanche.

The inbreds of Morgantown. Just because Duke is in the ACC doesn't mean you have to root for them.

Duke. If they win, I win my brackets.

Because rooting for Duke is such a noble venture. They're already calling the WVU kids thugs I'm sure. And although they're right, after we got that treatment from their fans, I'm not rooting for Duke under any circumstances.

I'm rooting for a Huggins DUI and a Ratface stroke.

I just had a 2 minute conversation regarding basketball with my office's resident Duke grad. Makes me feel good about having to root agaisnt them.

Though to be fair, that's biased as there's no way I would ever run across a WVU grad during work, now that I stopped eating fast food.

I am rooting for an act of god akin to Sodom and Gemmorah. I will not be watching these two fucking teams unless I can get assurances that will happen from the big guy.

We have a WVU grad in our office. I'm not sure what the HR Dept. was thinking. He wears a WVU lanyard, and I make fun of him all day.

How many times in the 2 minutes did he have to check his cheersheet for answers?

It started like this:

Douchey McGee: "I hear BU is looking a for a new coach, eh?"

Me: (death stare)

I had a WVU grad on my porch once. I paid for the pizza and he left.

Duke all the way. And it should be 'whom'.

A Duke win would be good for BC.

A WVU would be good for orphans, baby seals and just about all else that is nice and innocent.

you might have to explain this to the orphans and baby seals that might be struck with burning couches and urine bags.

normally in the situation I would say Duke but here WVU could win me a good amount of money so I have to go WVU

but then I want WVU to get taken behind the woodshed in the finals.

Yeah, but to my knowledge West Virginia isn't full of "rapists" and their mascot isn't Satan.
