Interesting. I really don't think I've been any more excited this year than in the previous decade on DBR. Heck, last year I think I was a voice of optimism through much of a painful season. Now, obviously I'm stoked about the Carolina win. And I really want everyone to appreciate how good we have it. But given the fact that some people think I'm excited/giddy/overly optimistic and others get on me for being too critical, I guess I'm doing my job. And when I say "job," I mean that I'm accomplishing what I hope to do when I post -- being analytical while remaining true to my Duke fandom. I'm not sure if that makes any sense. But I'm really enjoying this season, just as I always enjoy watching Duke play.
