View Article  By now you've heard about Friday's press conference...

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane -
Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn -
world serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs. Feed it up a knock,
speed, grunt no, strength no. Ladder structure clatter with fear of height,
down height. Wire in a fire, represent the seven games in a government for
hire and a combat site. Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies
breathing down your neck. Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered
crop. Look at that low plane! Fine then. Uh oh, overflow, population,
common group, but it'll do. Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its
own needs, listen to your heart bleed. Tell me with the rapture and the
reverent in the right - right. You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright
light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's not the end of the world as we know it.  But it feels close.  Marvin, Raymond and Sean have scheduled a press conference for Friday afternoon to announce their future plans. Things could change, of course, but generally press conferences aren't a good thing. I'm pretty confident David Noel is coming back, and he hasn't scheduled one.

We'll see what happens.  Whatever goes down, the Heels are the 2005 NCAA Champions.  And that doesn't happen often.  There are a number of players that left Chapel Hill early without having brought UNC a championship.  Antawn, Vince, Jerry, Rasheed, Joseph, etc.  Don't begrudge these kids.  Appreciate what you got.  I'll probably own a Sean May NBA jersey, and I hate the league.  So we'll see.  Next year should be interesting - a chance to see what Roy can do with limited resources.  Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.
View Article  #4: Football Heels get Bowl bid

Picture this:  The Heels are sitting at 3-4, needing to win 3 of their final 4 games to get to 6 wins and bowl-eligibility. Simple, right? Two of the four games are against Wake Forest and Duke. They're on the road, but definitely winnable. The other two are against Virginia Tech and Miami.  They're at home, but that's a definite "uh-oh." These are the two new ACC teams brought in to bring up the quality of football in the conference.  These aren't supposed to be winnable games.

But the Heels did win 3 of those 4, and went on to face an almost-BCS team in Boston College.  So they lost.  A trick play broke the Heels' backs.  But they were back in bowl business.  And it was good to get postseason workouts and postseason football.  Oh, and to see the seniors give it one last go in a Tar Heel uniform.
