The Duke Blue Devils SAFEGUARD Thread

  • reclegend22
    Haha it may. But since I am still posting within my original guidelines of this thread -- posting again sometime Sunday -- I'm hoping I'm good.

    There is no doubt that the world will be wanting tiny Milan to cut the nets down on Monday Night. And that's exactly, no matter how excellent Butler truly is, the Bulldogs will be in the eyes of the nation come Monday Night: the Hickory Huskers, and Gordon Hayward Jimmy Chitwood. The building -- which I will be in -- will be electric and Butler will be the favorite.

    However it turns out, this has all gone beyond my wildest dreams, so honestly, it can only go up from here. Unless, of course, we lose, and all of this has been for nothing. I want this more than I've ever wanted anything in my sports life. I'll tell you what, if we win, it will have been more rewarding than any Duke championship I've been a part of. It will blow 2001 out of the water. These last six years, paid for in due by retribution.

    But there is still one more.

    I just can't get over this. I should have been more perceptive. I can't believe I fell for that act all week. It was right there in front of me and I just didn't make the connection.

    Damn you, dookie. Damn you and your team. :)

    Just remember this, rec. As you said, the massive underdog will be playing a virtual home game for the national championship. All the pressure is on Duke. The struggles of the last few years can all be washed away with just one more victory. The Blue Devils are firing on all cylinders, the "Big Three" look to be unstoppable, and K is going up against a young and much less experienced coach. It's David vs. Goliath and YOU will be there to see it all. Will it all work out as planned?....Or will things go terribly wrong on Monday as you watch in person? It could be the greatest night of your sports life, or it could unexpectedly turn into the worst. I'm guessing you'll be celebrating another national championship, but you know what I'm hoping to see. ;)

    LOL. Thanks for not adding any extra pressure for me to rehash on my drive out there. This is huge for Duke. Who knows when we'll be back. We have to take care of business.
