Actually Stevie, you must be related to the AD - you have a difficult time with objective comments and facts. I have probably given more money to DU BB than you have or will along with being a Season Ticket Holder. As was once said, "You can't handle the truth!" Do I want us to win...of course! But our best chances are at Palumbo for this year...but you obvioiusly don't understand that. -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: DuqOfEarl 's message, "Leave it to Duquesne to relinquish 3 HOME games at Palumbo for a few extra sheckles as the Dukes will host West Virginia (Dec. 12), Atlantic 10 rivals Dayton (Jan. 30) and Xavier (Feb. 13) at the Consol. Is there any doubt that the visitor's will outnumber Duq. fans by 2 or 3 to one. Shameful ! Can you name one other so-called "major" program that would do this? Disgusting indeed!" on Wednesday, September 08, 04:45:33pm

1) I agree with objectivity and applaud that vs. drinking kool-aid but I feel that bringing $$$ donated into it is a little silly. It alienates current/recent students (who are saddled with debt from their own "donation" to DU) and alienates any fans who may not be so lucky to be able to donate. It's great that you have that within your means, but it is a completely invalid argument here. You don't know anyone else's financial situation. 2) He was talking about the original poster, who has trolled before, not you. (NT) -- MFE08, Thursday, September 09, 10:58:55pm
- well said. it shouldnt take much to realize how arrogant you sound when you talk about money like that (NT) -- dukes13, Thursday, September 09, 11:30:39pm
  - You'all should have been in the Arena in the late 60's, it was the place to be when Dukes played. Don't be afraid to go Big Time. (NT) -- philldogg, Friday, September 10, 10:05:55am
    - Sundays at the Arena with a full house were great. That was a long time ago. How long is the waitlist for season tickets at Palumbo? That's why the comparison to Nova doesn't work. They sell out the campus site preseason and then sell out their Wells Fargo (nee Wachovia Center) games in hours. (NT) -- Shushurara, Friday, September 10, 11:08:22am
      - Yes, it was a long time ago, but .... -- Purduke, Wednesday, September 15, 11:43:05am
    - as my handle might suggest.. it was quite impossible for me to attend any event in the 60's (NT) -- dukes13, Friday, September 10, 02:45:26pm
I don't believe Stevie was responding to you FAM. If you don't know Stevie, he is not only a long-time, loyal Dukes fan, but he has also served our nation. I disagree that we can't be successful - and can't draw fans - at the Consol Center. But we won't see who's right until the season starts. I don't think that makes me or Stevie a kool-ade drinker, or a relative of the AD. (NT) -- El Duque, Friday, September 10, 11:34:13pm
