About this ebook

A hilarious examination of the most hated team in college basketball—Duke University's Blue Devils.

"It's daylight savings time, which means it's also Duke-hating time." ― The Denver Post

In the ranks of NCAA college basketball, Duke University is like something scraped off the bottom of a shoe. It's like a nasty virus you catch from a door handle at a public toilet.

No team in sports is as uniquely hated as those smug, entitled, floor-slapping, fist-pumping, insufferable Blue Devils. The loathing has almost reached the level of a religion. Christian Laettner is a punk. Amen. The Cameron Crazies are obnoxious. The Plumlees are worthless times three. Coach K is a jerk. Kumbaya.

The team is dogged by an intense hatred that no other team can match—and for good reason. Millions of hoops fans and March Madness aficionados around the world are not imagining things. Duke really is evil, and within the pages of Duke Sucks, journalist Reed Tucker and podcaster Andy Bagwell show readers exactly why Duke deserves to be so detested. They bruise and batter the Blue Devils with fact after fact, story after story, statistic after statistic. They build an airtight case that could stand up in a court of law.

So sit back in your "I Hate Duke" t-shirt, and in true Duke fashion, force someone poorer than you to do your work as you crack open the ultimate guide to Duke suckitude.

Who'd thought Duke had so many pathetic little haters like this guy? How about you go home start over and write something worth reading like "Why Duke is so much better than UNC?" That would get you a major award. It's funny to me how no matter how much we lose we are still better than you. It's kinda like the Yankees. They could go win less on year and still be the richest team in baseball. Keep that in mind. Also, who's the idiot who wrote that the Cameron Crazies are idiots. Ummmm....that's kinda the point. It's the Cameron C-R-A-Z-I-E-S. Not the Cameron "Be nice to every road team" fans. Plus, chances are if they are smart enough to get into Duke, they are doing a heck of a lot better than you. All I'm trying to say is: LET'S GO DUKE!!!!!!

All I can say is wow...I know we fans have by far the most hated rivalry but wow. What sad, disgraced, ignominious degenerative kind of douche bags does it take to write such a book...The authors of this book really need to get a life and grow up...I understand how much one hates the other but this is a little above and beyond...

Have any of you that gave this book five stars or one even read the book? Here is some true information for you: Duke sucks. UNC sucks. Basketball sucks. Duke has one of the best college basketball programs in the country. UNC is not far behind. So, read the book and give a relevant review before you post your flamewar.
