For the record ... better said, IMHO ... there was no whining about Pitt. One poster took a good-natured poke and a couple (or perhaps one posting under mutliple aliases) humorless nerds took it upon themselves to disparage DU. And if they're disparaging DU, are they not also trashing the entire education system? And for that matter, the United States of America? Well, I'm simply not going to let them bash the United States of America! -- Duquesne Dukes Basketball Forum

In reply to: duq81 's message, "You're right on that. I probably blended this post into the one with all of the whining about Pitt. If folks on this board are looking for a legit axe to grind, I suggest they keep an eye on coverage of women's hoops. Our girls are at least as good as Pitt, and are coached by a local legend. Other than when UConn comes to town, I expect to see equal coverage." on Tuesday, September 07, 12:49:54pm
