I like this site a lot, but whoever wrote these write-ups needs to try again. Particular with the Duke game. Instead of saying anything useful about the game — why Duke struggled to get ahead, how Miami answered almost every run, etc. — we get essentially three comments: 1. the coach (correctly) told a reporter that he’s not the right person to ask about the reason for the technical (with a side comment suggesting that he is somehow guilty, as a coach, for working the refs, as though that weren’t universally understood as part of the job); 2. opposing fans hate certain players Duke players with a passion, as if this were anything new (giving false information at the same time — the Plumlees aren’t twins); and 3. the players and fans complain when a foul is called on their team (this was such a ludicrous thing to say about any particular team that even the editor had to step in on this one). Can I suggest, please, that you avoid sending people to watch (and write about) tournaments when they hate some particular team? We all know that Duke is the team that America loves to hate, for all kinds of reasons, so your writer’s animosity is nothing special in that regard. But the better sites don’t jump on this particular cliché with quite the level of obvious enthusiasm that this writer did. If you must hate Duke in your write-ups, could you do it with a little more class and intelligence?
