For those of you who watched both the Georgetown-Louisville game and the Duke-North Carolina game, you might have noticed some similarities. One team had an 11 point lead early in the second half, the other team makes a run to take the lead, then the first team comes back and wins. But, take a look at the headlines from AOL sports fanhouse about the two games, and see if you notice a media bias: Georgetown-Louisville GameDuke-North CarolinaON EDIT: Here are the actual headlines, I realized I shouldn't give AOL more hits: GU: Georgetown Chokes Away Then Wins the Big East Conference UNC: North Carolina Beats Duke 76-68, Wins ACC Regular Season Championship

;D
(We did "choke" away that 11-point lead. That was ugly, headless basketball)

Who is DeJuan Summers? I guess AOL is saving money these days by cutting on copy editors.

To be fair, those are AOL Fanhouse blogs, which are written by, yes, fans--not paid reporters. And no copy editors. So dunno if you can really call this media bias.

The persecution mentality on this board can get a little overwhelming at times...not everything is a knock on us

Charles Rich is terrible. He's the guy that wrote 3 posts on how JTIII was going to leave because his contract hadn't been extended yet, and then he wrote a 4th after the extension was signed about how it wasn't enough and that we "only bought a little time."
