I haven't found any way to do this.

If, like me, you are offended by threads relating to particularly repugnant topics, your enjoyment of DBR is diminished every time you see these threads climb their way back to the top of Page 1. It's as if we're being cheated - yes, CHEATED - of our rights as DBR patrons.

We need a hero! Someone to find a way to banish these vile topics - to send them back to the hell-hole from whence they slithered - and to receive the grateful sporks of thousands. Let's hope our hero shows up soon. :p

That may be true only in the posts contained in the thread that was merged with the basketball "only" thread. I'm almost certain of that as I had a couple posts deleted from "that" thread that I posted after the threads were merged. Since that time, I've chosen to ignore "that" thread.

In fact, during our breakfast this AM, I first selected an individually wrapped bagel and started to open the bag but decided not to complete the task when I noted it was labeled wheat so I chose the gluten-free option instead.

Well, I believe this IS technically the "Duke and Carolina Basketball Report," after all, so unrepentant Carolina fans who come here immediately after the program gets a pass for decades of cheating and create a UNC basketball thread that is not allowed to reference the decades of cheating (because reasons) could never be considered trolls. And when they bump it to the first page day after day, they still could never be considered trolls. Even when they post videos of past blowout victories over NC State in such thread in response to comments from fans of NC State, that's not troll behavior at all--it is directly relevant to this year's UNC team and is therefore permitted (because reasons). In summary, you deserved that flame, and whoever gave it to you is the real hero of the Duke and Carolina Basketball Report.

I'm just happy there are finally deep thinkers in these parts. Maybe it's time to engage those thinkers directly, in said thread, and exchange views on ... oh, I don't know ... maybe thoughts about our current president, our last president, bbq (both Texas and NC (east and west)), bathroom bills, religion, abortion, the root causes of the Civil War, whether Dean is the greatest basketball coach who ever lived or the greatest human who ever lived, and Woodrow Wilson. If there's going to be a Teflon thread, we might as well make use of it.

Sure, it's not in the DSM . . . yet, but with Wheat's permission, we will press on to get his disorder recognized by the American Psychiatric Association.

Noted. But when a thread exists solely to discuss some posters' frustration with your program and your posts in particular... not that you will pay attention to me, but maybe give Duke fans some space on their own board to voice their annoyances.

Except when you tell Duke fans how to feel about the cheating that UNC systemized for two decades. Or accuse K of teaching players how to kick out their legs to draw phantom fouls. Or intimate a Duke player did something dirty, then pretend you didn’t mean to imply that. Etcetera etcetera etcetera. You don’t start digs when attacked. You dig, then play martyr.

I can't ever recall implying Duke did something dirty...and where have I ever told Duke fans how to feel?

As for the leg kick out on the three, I absolutely do believe coach K encourages it when a player shooting the 3 sees a defender closing in out of control to draw a foul. Seen it too many times...and there's nothing wrong with that. Make a defender pay if he's late. Other coaches encourage it too.

Never understood why people think that's a bad thing for a coach to make his shooters aware of...drawing fouls is part of the game.

I've diagnosed him with "UNCheat Fan Masochism Disorder," or "UNCFMD" for short.

Sure, it's not in the DSM . . . yet, but with Wheat's permission, we will press on to get his disorder recognized by the American Psychiatric Association.

I'm even going to make some of those plastic bracelet thingies to raise awareness. :)

There may be a hint of truth to that diagnosis, although I'd add an "S" in there somewhere for stubbornness :)

When I get attacked, I will respond.

Now, where have I heard a similar quote? Oh, that's right, from the guy Alec Baldwin lampoons on SNL.

I thought it was a Zen proverb.

Maybe someone needs to start a “can you block a thread about blocking threads” to get away from this crap on DBR. Or maybe this is just the new normal.

Which one of you let that guy in my thread?:p

But i guess we can't do a lot, since some of the mods seem eternally determined to bend over backward for him.

Some people just don't understand when they're not appreciated. Or they do understand, and secretly enjoy yanking our chains, with the seeming blessing of the mods.

Many thanks. Just speak well of me when I’m gone.

So I was responding to inaccurate attacks on UNC's crowd size

The only thing more inflated than UNC's crowd size estimates are UNC's graduation rates. No one was unfairly attacking anything about Carolina. Show me an attendance total from a Dean's Myth Center game and unless it's a sell out, I'll show you some numbers as fake as Julius Peppers transcript.

As for your "scoreboard" post, I hate to tell you but this poster doesn't give aflip anymore. Any "scoreboard" over the past 30 years is the product of cheating. Unlike Duke, State hasn't been blessed with one of the best college coaches of all time to level the playing floor. So you beat us regularly? Fantastic. Your school is very good at cheating, I think y'all have proven that to everyone. Well done. I'm slow clapping you right now.

I know what your feelings are on the scandal, because you are still a Carolina fan that has no shame. That tells me all I need to know. There is no discussion with you that I would enjoy.

Peace out.

The irony of what this thread has turned into is way too thick.

Keeping this thread open any longer serves no purpose. The original question has been answered, and now it's devolving into complaints about Wheat, about the moderators, about how the moderators handle Wheat, about UNC in general, etc. There are other places to discuss the legitimate stuff. As for the rest, it has no place on these boards.

This thread is CLOSED.
