POLL SKEW: Duke vs. UNC - Middle School Fight Song

[cassandra21174]

Hello all,

I am a teacher in Boonton, NJ. This year our homerooms were assigned various universities. I, of course, chose Duke. To spread school spirit, each class wrote a fight song inspired by their university's fight song score. The team to get the most votes will have their song made the official Boonton Middle School fight song. Right now, the DUKE fight song is in second place to UNC....no!!!!! The DUKE fight song is truly better than UNC's. Yes, I am biased, but Duke's deserves the honor. I need your help. If you have 30 seconds of time, please, go to boontonschools.org, click on the middle school tab near the top of the page, and then go to the university fight song tab. Vote for DUKE #6. Today is the last day to vote, so any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

A worthy effort . . . and fun, too; here's a direct URL to a page where votes can be executed: http://www.boontonschools.org/middleschool/fight_song.html

Duke still trails UNC, so some special effort is required TODAY.

However, if we should lose to the Heels, I (for one) will proudly proclaim UNC-CH "The University of New Jersey.":D

Keep voting. Domination of the nation is our single goal!!! Maybe that Boomtowner in the devil horns is a future surfboard rider.

They are tied right now, and this post is just to get the link restated down here in the thread. Only 515 folks in total have voted in this poll, so get with it people. We ought to be able to get that total doubled by dinner time.

I would never normally post on this particular page, but the school where I teach in New Jersey, Boonton Middle School, set up its homerooms as universities this year. Each homeroom wrote a new school song inspired by the fight song of its university. My homeroom, DUKE, is currently in the running with our nemesis, UNC. We need anyone who can spare 15 seconds to go to http://www.boontonschools.org/middleschool/fight_song.html and vote for DUKE "Class 6." I apologize for posting here, but we can't let the Tar Heels win. Thanks!

[Duke09]

Can we get this on the front page?

It feels wrong to skew this poll when it's about kids presenting their projects.

[OZZIE4DUKE]

The link no longer works; I guess the poll is over. Who won? Did Laettner make a last second shot to win it for Duke? :cool: Inquiring minds want to know! :D

[chadlee989]

Was the score 82 to 50?

[4decadedukie]

At 7:45, Duke leads 350 to 338.

[miramar]

At 7:45, Duke leads 350 to 338.

The website says they closed the voting at 2:30 and UNC won 332-331.

That result seems awfully suspicious...

[weezie]

Hhhmmmmmmmmmmm. Does Jim Joyce have any grandchildren attending Boomtown?

[jdj4duke]

If there was ever any doubt, it is now dispelled. UNC gets all the calls.

[Highlander]

I agree. Obviously fixed.

Then again, I voted 3 or 4 times, so what do I know :)

[moonpie23]

351-338 duke leading...
