… and there it is. My first time being insulted by the exalted one. And I’m extra appreciative that it was short and well crafted, yet cloaked in snark and murkiness with a hint of cryptic flair. Cue the Barry Manilow… “Looks like we’ve made it.”
First, I’d like to share a fun fact about Gary… when he was in middle school, his teacher gave him an assignment to list the world’s smartest people. He received an A-plus for turning in a blank page with only his name at the top.
If by not reading or watching that gaggle of media you posted to begin the thread is what you were referring to, here are my thoughts…
- I have no interest in hearing anything Stephen A or Shannon Sharpe have to say on any topic. I’m surprised a man of your erudition pays them any mind.
- One of your testimonials is from an NC St grad with 140 followers
- Another is from a UK homer account
- Another is some rando from Milwaukee who hates the Badgers way too much to give a flying hoot about UNC.
- Posting tweets and videos of people who didn’t agree with the committee doesn’t correlate to some national stick it to UNC at all costs campaign that everyone is in on.
- And not sure how opinions of rivals confirm bias either? How bizarre would it be if somebody used a quote from you about Alabama to support a media bias against the Tide?
Now, I’m going to back out of 44 and settle into 20. Can you please explain to me in your usual unbiased opinion, why Auburn deserved the overall #1 seed over Duke when:
- Duke was #1 in the Net and Auburn was #2 (as I’ve learned from the UNC bid justification, Net is important).
- Auburn thus far has a losing record in March (2-3)
- Duke beat Auburn in head to head
- Of course, I expect you won’t use Auburn’s Q1 victories in your argument (again, from the UNC bid justification, Q1 is NOT important)
Thanks in advance. And feel free to hurl a few more insults while you’re at it. Consider me Luca Brasi… it’s an honor and a privilege to be verbally pummeled by the Don of the coaching mafia himself. But all I ask
Is just, please, don’t blow the assist.
