   [1]Simmons:

     Congrats to Coach K for questioning why Hansbrough was still in the
     game and inadvertently using Isiah Thomas' "he was asking for it"
     defense. And the Duke fans wonder why everyone hates Duke. If the
     roles were reversed, and this had happened to McRoberts, Coach K
     would have shown up for the press conference covered in McRoberts's
     blood, fighting back tears, urging for the offending UNC player to
     be suspended for the entire ACC tournament and basically looking
     like Jackie Kennedy in Dallas after the JFK shooting. God, I hate
     Duke. 

   See also Simmons's description just prior of Packer's odd insistence
   that Henderson did not intentionally drop a flying elbow on
   Hansbrough's beak.
   Unfortunately for Packer we have replay. Even more
   unfortunately we have You Tube.
   Pay close attention as Packer attempts to hypnotize the country by
   soothingly telling the basketball proletariat over and over that they
   did not see what they just saw.
   As an added bonus, witness Packer's mind-reading ability regarding
   Henderson's state of mind and what he didn't intend.
