Not really. You've deflected the issue by claiming Clemson travelled (which is probably true but I don't feel like arguing that point -- though now that I think about it a step back 3 isn't generally called a travel.. it's like a backwards jumpstop in essence -- but he didn't start his dribble so you're right) and made excuse after excuse about how 'timekeeping isn't exact' so no big deal.. but you just did now so I'll drop it. That's all I wanted to hear.

Regardless, I've never once said that Clemson should be excused from screwing up defensively..

yes it was a fuck up, and ti was unfortunate, but it wasn't due to some random duke conspiracy :x

re: 850 blog in theother thread

as it said it's more unfortunate this fuck up is taking the glory from an otherwise entertaining basketball game

1/26/2007 4:07:50 PM

^Glory? WTF are you talking about? I hope you're not talking about Duke glory. The timekeeping error took away an overtime, not "glory."

1/26/2007 4:14:35 PM

again because it is impossible to score in 2.8

1/26/2007 4:17:17 PM

you are a very surly person ... the game you assblossom

the game was a good game, and this is overshadowing it.


calm down and find something else to harp on

I LOVE DUKE FANS!!!!

^How can I not respond to this shit?

1/26/2007 4:20:42 PM

AND you're a careless polluter

1/26/2007 6:16:25 PM

So, BC today, even though Clemson dropped 20 on them its gonna be tougher on Duke I think

but back to the topic on hand here, why do they only stop the clock after made shots only towards the end of the game or selectively during the game, it should be universal throughout, yeah Duke got time at the end, but that could have been just to make up for time lost after made shots on previous possesions, but its still fucked up, I just think they should do the same thing all game long

I saw an article in the N&O about the ACC official apology, anyone got a link?

watching the boston scene from wotw before the game

1/28/2007 5:16:40 PM

web of the wolf ?

1/28/2007 5:20:31 PM

so far, they have stopped the clock some times, and others they have run it off

i think its fucked up

if there is an official rule and i need to STFU, give me a link

1/28/2007 6:33:24 PM

^AHA, you don't know anything about basketball.

1/28/2007 7:29:29 PM

^ahaha, you dont know anything about life

18-3, 5-2 ACC

Finally a win against a real ACC team, and no help from the zebras

1/28/2007 7:46:40 PM

But seriously, Stinger, of course there's an official rule. There's a fucking book of rules that comes out each year.

Here's a link to the 2006 NCAA Men's and Women's Basketball Rules and Interpretations...

http://www.ncaa.org/library/rules/2006/2006_m_w_basketball_rules.pdf

Scoring and timing regulations begin on page 94.

1/28/2007 7:49:34 PM

hold me, baby

1/28/2007 8:03:40 PM

that says in the last 59.9 seconds of the 2nd half and/or overtime

i have seen it done outside that time

1/28/2007 8:12:54 PM

There are plenty of other reasons why the clock would stop. They're all listed there.

Or maybe they're just breaking the rules. I doubt it though.

Regardless, there are your official rules.

1/28/2007 8:27:59 PM

yeah, it said to recognize a made field goal in the last 59.9 of the 2nd

i have seen it outside that time, thats all im saying, but thanks for the link

1/28/2007 8:55:49 PM

good to see a duke team be able to outrebound other teams.

I really hope McClure's not seriously hurt.

1/28/2007 9:02:30 PM

taylor king is friggin nasty...he finished with 32 points but they lost by 3 to oak hill. he plays like larry bird...he is a bigger white guy with unlimited range and can hit any contested shot...nasty left handed shooter at 6'8".

nolan smith is a nasty ballhandler and had 14 points and was the best defensive player on the court.

scheyer, paulus, zoubek, nelson, henderson, wojo, dawkins, collins, and coach k are a row below me...mcroberts and thomas are hiding in the upper deck. they are sticking around to watch and recruit patrick patterson, the center on huntington with oj mayo. he's big and ripped. tip off is in 9 minutes.

1/30/2007 8:46:37 PM

tell me how mayo does


or wait. is he suspended for these games ?

[Edited on January 30, 2007 at 9:07 PM. Reason : ,.]

1/30/2007 9:03:47 PM

mayo has been lazy so far but passes like lebron...and has bright green nikes...ill post when i get home...the q is bout dead.

1/30/2007 9:18:47 PM

18-4, 5-3 ACC

5 min is too early to start running the clock with a 6 pt lead

2/1/2007 11:25:38 PM

that karma from clemson just bit these fags froom durham in the assssssssss

2/1/2007 11:29:27 PM

i dont think so, just whoever had the bright idea to run clock with only a 6 pt lead should be kicked in the ass

2/1/2007 11:31:43 PM

^Yeah, that was crucial.

[Edited on February 1, 2007 at 11:35 PM. Reason : That's what the commentator guy told me.]

2/1/2007 11:34:02 PM

the offense went to shit when we started forcing it to mcroberts everytime after running like 15-20 seconds. the ball wasn't moving around at all. just going into mcroberts and not coming out unless he got in big trouble. he's not even a back to the basket post force like that anyway.

2/1/2007 11:39:52 PM

thats what you get for pulling for the 2nd gayest school in north carolina (behind UNC obviously)

2/1/2007 11:41:18 PM

we arent all gay, just the ones named after Greek Philosophy people

2/1/2007 11:43:32 PM

^You went to Duke?

2/1/2007 11:47:51 PM

yeah, i took a summer class there

2/1/2007 11:48:32 PM

i mean i know straight people that went to UNC but that doesnt mean UNC's basketball team isnt gay

2/1/2007 11:51:25 PM

UNC is gay through and through

2/1/2007 11:51:59 PM

lol @ a summer class

2/2/2007 12:09:18 AM

I cant believe coach K decided to call a timeout with 8 seconds left on the shot clock. He should know that Duke can never inbound the ball and put up a decent shot with that little time left. Sheyer pretty much blew the game.

2/2/2007 12:21:06 AM

the A-list is now:

Gonzaga
Virginia Tech
N C STATE

2/3/2007 8:18:12 PM

Dude, don't bttt a fucking Duke thread right now.

Even if you're doing it under the guise of boosting State.

2/3/2007 8:19:18 PM

isn't this the dude who proposed?

2/3/2007 8:22:35 PM

chalk up a win for wednesday. get back on defense and you beat unc.

2/3/2007 8:44:11 PM

18-5, 5-4 ACC

Way to blow a 17 point lead. My back hurts.

2/4/2007 4:09:47 PM

man they can't win anything this year, feels like its been more than 5 losses

2/4/2007 4:10:55 PM

w00t

[Edited on February 4, 2007 at 4:11 PM. Reason : they had like 50 chances, thats some nc state shit]

2/4/2007 4:10:56 PM

holy shit i love seeing duke get beat tat cameron

2/4/2007 4:11:13 PM

jesus christ.

2/4/2007 4:11:37 PM

This has been a great weekend

2/4/2007 4:13:07 PM

espn is going to implode.

2/4/2007 4:13:54 PM

good learning experience today. can't ever look ahead. its just too many "rivalry" games. we already should have learned about letting up in the uva game.

mcroberts didn't get smacked on the arm at all either.


most of all im glad to see paulus is rolling and has the swagger. thats big for us. wait till wednesday.

2/4/2007 4:22:51 PM

i think what i like best about duke and unc going into 'rivalry week'

is that they're both going in as losers

the media will have to take a different angle for once

2/4/2007 4:24:42 PM

Why does it seem like Florida State has beat Duke an inordinate number of times?
