Mickey D’s Top 35 All Time

Apparently this year is the 35th anniversary of the McDonald’s All-American game.  Who knew?  In honor of that Milestone McD’s has released their list of the 35 greatest players to play in their high school All-Star game since it’s inception. Hit the jump for the list Continue reading Mickey D’s Top 35 All Time

“Not Our Rival”

Shane Ryan, a writer for ESPN’s Grantland and the blog Tobacco Road Blues (and also the former blog Seth Curry Saves Duke) wrote a great piece on the “Not Our Rival” chant.  That chant was a big topic of conversation here on THEESB last week leading up to and after the UNC vs. NC State [...]

Battleground: North Carolina

It’s the middle of basketball season, but the future of all ACC football programs will be shaped in part this week as National Signing Day for college football approaches on Wednesday.

Rivals.com has an interesting breakdown of battleground states and the winners in those states.  Of our home state, North Carolina, they say the [...]

I Admit: I love Reg. Seas. ACC Hoops

In a world consumed by $EC football and the NFL, I sometimes feel like a cappuccino swilling, hipster beatnik with my lifelong affinity for ACC hoops.

UNC is looking for its 11th win in a row against State. It will be their first game without Dexter Strickland, and they have had a week off.

NC State will be trying to get their first win in Chapel Hill since [...]

Not so Crazy

The Cameron Crazies are not showing up to watch their beloved Blue Devils. An article in The Duke Chronicle pointed out that the student section of Cameron Indoor Stadium has been on a steady attendance decline. So much so, that the athletic department has been selling tickets in the student section for about [...]

Tickets Still Available on StubHub

In case anyone wants to go to the NC State/UNC-CH game on Thursday night, there are still 442 tickets available on StubHub as of me typing this.  Anyone know where Roy Williams’ reserved, extra special, Tar Heel Fan only seats are?  There would be nothing better than to see some Wolfpack fans sitting in [...]

Kicking Off State/Carolina Hate Week In Style

Apparently the gang over at TarHeelFanBlog.com do not think very highly of either NC State, or its fans.  Wolfpack fans are the “most ignorant in the nation”.  The “uninformed knuckleheads” that support State are so stupid that they think they have a shot in Thursday’s showdown.  The Pack hasn’t played anyone of note, at [...]
