Probably not wise to hire someone coached by Graham.

it is shocked that i am

unc has cheaters (roy) and criminals (football players, anson) on their staff. This is NEWS and or NEW WHY / HOW ?

NOW, were this NCSU the news and lies would make it page one, but it's unc so there MIIIIIIIGHT be a blurb in the metro section.

Lee, obviously this FELON needs to make the unc rap sheet. Or the front page. Or both.

TUGH LIFE ! TUGH LIFE !

Is every athlete over there juicin'?!
Does this explain unx-xh success (suckcess) in women's ports?

tin foil hat firmly in place, eh Dread?

I think you got it a lttle too tight.

Really? Think I'm being paranoid?

Try this on for size:

Sidney Lowe & watering his lawn.

He lives in Raleigh (Brier Creek) and was blatantly violating the water restrictions.

In case you don't recall, he played at moou for Saint Jimmy V and is currently the head coach of the moou basketball team. moou is located in Raliegh, in case you've forgotten.

Now go ahead and tell us why a former UNC player (UNC is located in Chapel Hill) and assistant NBA coach in Charlotte would warrant the same attention.

If that's the best justificaton you've got, then

Sidney Lowe was in vilation of some obscure watering law. (it's not like he was authorizing payments to players).

FRONT PAGE NEWS.

phil ford is guilty of the same violation and lo' and behold - page 5 of the Metro.

So Phil Ford is equally newsworthy of retard sid in Raleigh, according to Dread.

Gotcha.

Ford lived in the same neighborhood as Lowe. They were issued citations on the same day.
Why would the N&O "report" on Lowe, but not Ford?

Neither citation is newsworthy, but the N&O made a point to single out Lowe.

So let me see if I have 'got-it' here:

Sid waters his lawn during water restrictions.

unx-xh hires an admitted fraudulent Olympic Gold winner, performance enhancing drug user.


Yeah I see the connection!

Hopefully Pettigrew can bring many more championships and metals back to xh!!!!!!
GO HOLES!!!!!!!

Given the amount of "love-coverage" that unc receives (see the fluff piece on unc player's ROOMS) yes.

phil ford is as well known. Unless you are making the claim that Lowe > ford insofar as visibility and 'q' factor?

i guess he was connected to dook baseball

Phil lived in Charlotte. That's where he's employed, you know.

He also has a home in Raleigh for his family. He has children in school, you know.

"Phil Ford's wife running the spinklers!"

Shouls be on 60 Minutes according to you asshats.

IC PREMIUM POSTER ARE ALL OVER IT!!!



Ford was hired in June 2007 by the Bobcats, the violation happened in July 2007. So you're claiming the difference is that "Ford wasn't home". What makes you think Lowe was at home? It's the SAME DAMN VIOLATION and I'm just guessing that both homes have automatic sprinkler systems.

Our point is that Lowe's home was singled out, yet Ford's wasn't. And it is typical of the N&O.

Smart thinking for Pill to leave the ole lady near xh so she can service the basketball team.

Maybe that's what the tarkatz need!

Phil was in NYC prior to joining the Bobcats. His family has remained in the area because his wife is from Durham and his children are teenagers in school.



I'll take your word for it.



One is the retard CURRENT HEAD COACH of the wusspack. The other is the greatest PG to ever play in the ACC.

The current head coach of moou should warrant more media coverage.

The NBA season ended for the Knicks in May. So you're telling me that Ford was LIVING in NYC in June and July? He was LIVING in Charlotte in June/July 2007 DURING THE OFF SEASON after taking the job with the Bobcats? Honestly...where was he LIVING in early July when he got the citation?

He was watering his fekkin lawn down the street from Sid. That's what he was doing. geezus



Yes, Sid should warrant more media coverage....but he doesn't...unless it's negative. That's the MO of the N&O.

My point in telling you about Phil is to point out that while the violations might be the same (I'm taking your word for it) the situations are different.



That's your perception.

Unfortunately, the realty of the situation is that for going on the last 3 decades most of the news surrounding moou has been negative. Major NCAA violations followed by years and years of taking being terrible to new and lower levels.

I guess you expect the N&O to only report the positive? If that was the case, moou wouldn't warrant hardly any attention whatsover.

The truth hurts sometimes.

thuggery from the top down...


one can only invision roy cutting the lines,baddour rollin the benji straw and moeser closin off a nostril!



sad...

Certainly the N&O should criticize Lowe and NCSU for any poor performance. And they do.

But "reporting" on Lowe getting a lawn watering citation????????????? Come on. Particularly when his NEIGHBOR PHIL FORD got the same violation!

And more recently their "reporting" of NON-VIOLATIONS at the College Inn.

Then the FLUFF on ROY'S BLATANT violation with Obama. If Sid did that he'd be raked over the coals until the NCAA investigated him.

Don't you see the difference in how the N&O reports both programs?

Are you expecting a serious answer?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

The drought and the water restrictions have been major news around here, Lee. I seriously doubt anyone who read the article on Lowe getting busted thought any different about the man after reading that.

You're acting paranoid again and you wonder why people say you wuffies have inferiority complexes.



There you go again. That sure as hell was and still is newsworthy. I pointed out to you why and you bailed on the thread. Would you like to continue that discussion?



But it wasn't a violation. If Obama was playing pick-up with the bottom-feeder wuffies it would have received the same coverage. Thinking otherwise points to your paranoia again.



There you go again.



There may be a slight difference in the way moou is covered...especially compared to UNC and dook. I'll concede that. But the main reason would be due to both schools' successes the last 2 to 3 decades moreso than anything else.

Nobody except unc fans. Regardless, was it necessary to point out that Lowe was on the list of 250+ violators? There's a motive there from the reporter. Believe it or not.



It is NOT newsworthy because by the admission of the author (your Mr. Pickeral, iirc) State did nothing wrong. And don't give me that bs about the NCSU spokesman not knowing exact numbers. State was nowhere near the limit. And the WPC owning the place has nothing to do with it either. They are free to invest where they want. It's ingenious actually...they get money back from persons that they fund. Certainly worth an A+ at Kenan-Flagler.




It WAS a violation but for SOME REASON the NCAA decided it was okay. Read the rules.
Just like when some unc bball players were used by a for-profit organization in their advertising (the dance event at a CH nightclub). Just like when several unc boosters treated local HS fball coaches to a thank you pizza party. Just like when unc alum were roaming the sidelines at the NCHSAA championship games and engaging recruits at Kenan Stadium. Just like when unc was flat out busted for having NBA alum participating in pickup games (that's right, they didn't speak to each other). Just like the same weekend when they escorted recruits to a football game.
Your program thumbs its nose at the rules and the press does absolutely nothing. I understand why. Much of the local media is run by unc grads. But at least be fair in your coverage.




Slight difference. Right.
NCSU was at least successful as unc back when the witch hunt started. Believe me, if some reporter wanted to do a witch hunt on unc they could. But they won't.

I don't know how Duke fans feel, but the media coverage seems to have turned anti-Duke, too.

Lowe & NCSU are newsworthy. Currently "of interest."
Ford is not. "Has Been" or "Never-Was Been"
*shrug*

Why do you care SO MUCH about what UNC fans think? That amazes me.

But even if some did, and it would be less than 1%, then they are idiots. As usual, you're making a bigger deal out of this than it is and that's because you're paranoid.



True to your pattern, you fail to mention the key points that make this an issue and newsworthy. NCSU didn't know the numbers and in they article they admit they just let the management company deal with it. If that really is the case, then there are some stupid fekkers running moou's compliance department.

The WPC owning the place is the entire point, dumbass. You cannot have booster clubs building special dorm rooms for affaletes. I cannot believe you cannot grasp this.

UNC does not house all of its affaletes at Granville. It you'd like to know which regular dorms house UNC affaletes, let me know.

There isn't a RAMS Club owned dorm where affaletes from all sports are housed at UNC.



Even if it was a violation, a Presidential candiate was there playing bball with the players. As the PR guy says, that was an extraordinary circumstance. Had Obama done the same at moou, the NCAA wouldn't have done anything there either. But continue with your conspiracy theories.



Secondary violations. They happen. Big whoop.
