The main reason that I hate Duke is not that they're so good - it's that ESPN, the polls and refs treat the Blue Devils like they're God's gift to basketball.
Duke is always overrated. Teams routinely get screwed by the refs when they play Duke.
But I think the thing that annoys me the most is listening to people slob Coach K's knob for running a clean program. Coack K is a lot of things (great coach, great recruiter, etc), but clean he isn't. After all, Quin Snyder was his No. 1 recruiter for several years.
I'm sure Quin NEVER cheated while he was Duke. Nope, just at Mizzou.
