    Funny and sad.

    Well-played

    I'm guessing this didn't originate from a UNC Journalism School major.

    Please. This is merely attention to detail. This is what separates a Duke student from the rest. Duke is Duke!

    Well-played II, OPK! Understand this is getting some serious play with our students. Another layup.

    Tar Heels. Two words. Written by a non sports person.

    I take that back. I've seen people on IC do the same thing. There was a person today who wondered why Friday's game was scheduled when many people were at work. They laid into him.

    The Huffington Post's Chief of Staff (I don't know why that's the title, but I digress) is a young Duke alum.

    I bet he had something to do with this story finding its way to HuffPost.

    Or as a UNC student would write, "it's way."

    Actually, he's no longer "just" Chief of Staff. He was named the Managing Editor of HuffPost about a month or so ago. That is, the #3 editorial position under Huffington and Roy Sekoff. So, he certainly has more power now. Jimmy doing work!

    That's wonderful news.

    Jimmy's one of the more gifted people to have graduated in the '00s.

    Won't be the last time he's pulling the strings.

    Why not go all the way to the truly creative? "its' way"

    I myself wonder whether, and actually worry a little that, someday in the future the "word" its' will become, well, a word.
