Duke Takes the Cake













Congrats to the Duke University men's basketball team and their happy fans, including Jamie, Ken, Joe, Evan and my Dad. (Strangely, I don't know any women who are long-term Duke fans, off the top of my head).

Duke is now the NCAA champion team for a year . . . following UNC's championship win last year (the Tar Heels lost the final game in the NIT this time around -- they are "rebuilding" for next year). Between Duke and UNC at Chapel Hill, there are plenty of national titles to go around. Duke has now won four: 1991, 1992, 2001, 2010. UNC has earned five titles: 1957, 1982, 1993, 2005 and 2009. That's ACC basketball, the most intense college basketball rivalry I've ever experienced, by far.  If you don't believe it, try a Duke-UNC game at Cameron Indoor Stadium some day . . .  Congrats again, you Blue Devils.

Today's Rune: Wholeness.
