I’ve said enough about Duke and opening ACC play today already, but it would be nice to get off to a good start. They are no doubt better than Virginia Tech, but as I’ve said, Tech has played them tough all but once thus far in ACC play. They need to play a solid [...]

I wrote about hard rock/heavy metal a few days ago, and the following night I see none other than Twisted Sister on Leno. Now, that may be disturbing to some, but what’s disturbing to me is what they were singing.
