major dilemma



i don't know what to do. what does one do when one of one's favorite college players is a star at the school one hates as much as any other?

not only do i hate the school, i hate their prissy blue school colors. what is their mascot? a goat? their fight song is annoying and i find their current coach to be a classless, idiotic jerk. nevertheless, some of my favorite professional players have come from unc...jordan, worthy, kenny smith are a few. go figure.

back to tyler hansbrough. after taking a russian sickle from the top rope in the duke game, he puts on a hannibal lecter mask and comes back for the next game as if their was nothing out of the ordinary. he always makes the right decisions. he hits his free throws. he's in the right place all of the time. no one will out-hustle him. he works for every single play, there doesn't seem to be a time when he gives up on a play because he thinks someone else will take care of it. he is a great basketball player who is a pleasure to watch.

that i hate his team and want them to get crushed every time out is at odds with the fact that i love to watch tyler hansbrough play well. he almost always does.

i still don't understand why they get home games for the first and second rounds. that's ridiculous.
