Well looks like we've turned the corner. Come on let's sing "well we're moving on up to the 11th spot of the conference.".

Def not a UNC team or UNC coach.

Keep the pretend artifical contrived bogus loser name for the time being.

When you decide to be a winner then its OK to revert back and use the sacred UNC name but not before.

Careful for what you wish.

UNC______________ fill in blank

We finished 13th last year. I'm pretty sure that adding, what is it, 3 talented freshmen, 2 players who couldn't play last year, and a juco will move us up more than 2 spots.

You may be sure, but I doubt you're pretty. I'm pulling for Charlotte, but I agree with that 11th is probaly about right.

Charlotte will finish between 4-8 in the A10 this season and be an NIT team.

Anon 7:01, is this what you were looking for?

"UNC ___Walmart__ fill in blank".

That seems like it has your name written all over it. It is quite bewildering to comprehend why you "Carolina" fans that never finished high school think you are so great.

"The sacred UNC name"
Try being honorable before you aspire to being sacred. If anyone has trashed the UNC name lately, it's been the athletic dept at Chapel Hill. Try some less biased media outlets geared to folks with more than 3 brain cells. That is, if you have that many brain cells.

Those clothes you wear and that food you have been eating for years bought for by mommy was from Walmart.

Mommy used to buy all your diapers and milk from Walmart too. She still does. Maybe one day you can get a job there stocking shelves if you get your GED and get off her Walmart internet.

AGAIN, why is it that you are uneducated if you did not or do not attend the scholarly GIANT that is UNCC?

AGAIN, we are waiting.

AGAIN, your question has been dealt with already.
You remind me of a child wanting attention from his mommy. "MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY, Look at this Mommy." Are you really that infantile? Your next post, which will be to say that I am lying, will be a lie.
