Honestly, I'm beginning to wonder if these kids even care about winning anymore. As long as they are praised for their abilities and get a fat pay check, do they even care? Remember, they've been brought up in a time when there are no losers and everyone gets a trophy.
Reddish to the dukies has been reported, dukies get another top 5 guy, no surprise.
He went on to make $40-50 mil in the NBA.Oh no, l remember now ... it was Red Dick wasnt it?
Whatever happened to him?

Yeah, Lord knows I'm all for poking fun at our neighbors down 15-501, but Reddick has done well. He and Mark Price are the two best shooters I've ever seen in the ACC.
Absolutely nothing wrong with ripping on a Dookie, no matter the circumstances.

I think they do care about winning, I think they care very much and is reason why they want to cluster at schools like duke and Ky. They are looking to play with other big time talents and play with and against these guys so they know and strongly value their talent. More experienced players, they do not play much with and frankly, may tend to under value the ability of experienced teams because their players were not one & done level talents. So they feel they can win more if they cluster together with other big timers and in doing so increase their NBA stock.
But the truth is just opposite to their perception, the clustering of 1&D kids does not increase the chances for getting that natty, playing with more experienced players does that. The 1&D guys do not want to come off the bench, they want to start and be featured because they believe that will as well show case their NBA value and increase their draft stock and they find that harder to do on deep experienced teams than on teams with a ton of holes left by early entry.
Look at Tony, truth is Tony was no where close to being NBA ready as an incoming frosh or frankly as a soph in college (IMO) but playing on the Natty winning team, coming off the bench while more experienced upper classmen lead the way, he got the NBA 1st round selection spot and that natty ring.
He went on to make $40-50 mil in the NBA.
As will Reddish, minimum.
So can we hold off on the lame nicknames?
Facts have little to do with fandom! I have no problem hating on pukies and that punk arse was one of the worst!
Right? making fun of your rival requires neither accuracy or logic.
You're right...I wouldn't expect accuracy, logic, common sense, or decency from someone who has an anti-immigration avatar, a "your mom's house" location, and confederate statue on his sig.
I didn't know we were going to take it there but if you're feeling frisky, come over to OOTB and get kicked in the teeth. It's tons of fun. Snowflakes welcome.
Also, GFY.
Kicked in the teeth? We're on a UNC message board man. Grow up.
This is the internet, so actually kicking you in the teeth would be impossible. No need to be afraid. It was a metaphor. But I know how you types get.
Apparently you have some political commentary you wanted to share. I'll extend the invitation again. Would you like to come chop it up on OOTB? We'll be looking out for you.
We're done here.
Again, you have two pieces of political commentary in your profile and you think I'm the one who wants to share it? Again...that whole logic thing...
.
Dadika, he's an idiot. Move on.
I'm assuming he is calling Dadika an idiot based on past history, but the punctuation does leave it ambiguous!
!
Are we still talking about Reddish or Reddick? The one sided arguments are hard to follow, lol!
I'm sorry but I'm not familiar with who you are. You apparently know my poasts here but I can't say your screen name rings any bells with me. So either you don't poast often or your thoughts on Carolina basketball are completely forgettable. But whatever the case may be, what's your beef, Holmes?
Considering I'm a former moderator who has been posting here since 2001, .
yes, I am calling YOU, GunSlingerDick the idiot. That is correct.
Again, you have two pieces of political commentary in your profile
Done and done my man.
The fact that a statue is considered "political commentary" is a joke.
Just to recap,
- I made a comment about how rivals don't need a reason to hate each other
- @dadika13 felt the need to comment on my avatar and signature
- I told @dadika13 that I would be happy to discuss these issues at OOTB
- @dadika13 then acts surprised that he got pushback from his snarky comments and refusal to have more discussion about it
- I once again invite @dadika13 to OOTB where we can hash this out
- @dadika13 again tucks his tail and refuses to elaborate on his original comments that started the shit storm.
- some fella named @GoToHeelDook shows up and makes a weird poast
- @TPFKAPFS attempts to clarify poorly written poast
- @GoToHeelDook then writes another poorly written poast patting himself on the back for his years of service as a moderator and does indeed clarify that he was calling me an idiot.
- I responded with a humorous gif
- @dadika13 replies to @GoToHeelDook to say that he is done and done. He also calls @GoToHeelDook "my man". So I think we can assume that @dadika13 has heard of this @GoToHeelDook fella before. They might even be friends. Not sure.
