ACC Tournament
 
I am heading down to ATL Thursday (DL 619) for a weekend of hoops. Any other FTers heading to the Georgia Dome for the games?

I wish. I'm used to be in Big East country but love the ACC. Year in and year out it is the best. I lived in Prov until last year. They are having a nice run this year and I probably will miss it. I was in Birmingham with them a few years ago when the were one shot away from the Final 4. I was in 10th row, center court. Time of my life. Now I am in MAAC land - a real culture shock.

Who do you follow? My nephew lives and dies Duke. I've tried to get him tickets in the past and struck out.

I hope you're not a UVA fan. I don't like Guillen - not because he left Prov but because he never gives a straight answer. He would talk the the full coaches show, 1 hour, and never say anything except I'm dodging bullets.

I grew up in a very divided household. My grandparents were ardent NC State fans, my mother is a Wake Forest devotee and I am a rabid Duke fan (business school there). So about the only thing we could all agree on was that any day the Heels lost was a good day.

If your nephew loves the Blue Devils, here is a great website that some of my friends operate:

I'll be down there starting late Friday afternoon in support of my Blue Devils. Should be an interesting tourney this year.

CLTFlyer,

Hope you enjoyed the weekend as much as I did. Nothing like watching the Devils cut down the nets after a dominating performance in the Final Game (although I would admit that the second half got a wee bit slow after the heels collapsed entirely). All I can say is, WOW! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Not hard to enjoy Sunday at all. I've never seen a Carolina team just quit against us. And I did love the DeanDome like quiet that rang out from the UNC section starting midway through the 2nd half.

Now if we can just keep it going for 6 more games. I'm going to try to see 'em if they advance to the second round (don't want to jinx it).
