Thoughts on: Duke

So, the overshadowing thing-of-interest regarding our Saturday night game at Duke is Tropical Storm Hanna. Right now, it looks like it could run up the Atlantic coast and maybe make landfall in North Carolina on Saturday. Yikes! At best, the game could be impacted by rain and wind. It is also conceivable that the game could be postponed, if the weather is dangerous for fans.

Once play ensues, the Cats apparently-capable defense will be dealing with Duke's Thaddeus Lewis. Lewis is a very good QB, as we sadly learned last year. Other players of note include:

• Jordan "Sampling" Byas (CB)
• Kevin "Wu Kevin" Wu (WR)
• Ryan Wood "you know how this game is played" (WR)

But, none of this will matter unless you're in going to be in NC this weekend. Because the damn game's not on TV! You can come over to my house if you want to pay $8 to watch a postcard-sized version on my computer -- sorry mac users, full-screen is not enabled for you! Or if you want to huddle around the Marconi wireless and listen to Dave Eanet's fireside Cats.*
