I wouldn't want you to look any more silly than you do now, so no.

I do not wish to continue this conversation. Your simpleton responses were quite predictable and you amuse me no longer.Originally posted by laughingComment

Who is UNCC?
Wow! This "laughing" guy is a real card
Let me give you some insight into how my state, North Carolina, feels about UNCC. Nobody in this state (outside of the UNCC students and unemployed alumni) know anything about UNCC or give a d@mn! To us, UNCC does not even exist! 90% of Carolinians couldn't tell you their school nickname or name one player on their team! In fact, I would compare how we think of UNCC to how Illinois natives think of UI-Chicago, Eastern Illinois, Northern Illinois and the like. You see, "laughing boy", no one in NC even knows your school or team exists. Your UNCC diploma is almost as worthless as your team in Tar Heel eyes.
I run a business and I would always put a UNCC grad behind the likes of Carolina, State, Duke, Wake, App. State, Davidson, Campbell, UNC-W, and several others. I view your school as a glorified community college for the blue collar kids that can not get into any of the above mentioned schools; a place where a kid goes to buy time from growing up and joining the real world!
You see, in Illinois (and particular in Peoria) Bradley, U of I, and SIU basketball is King! Illinois fans can appreciate a good education and good basketball. I doubt that over 10% of your student population would even be admitted into Bradley -- one of the most prestigious liberal arts universities in the midwest!
Your posts here just reaffirm what I thought when I visited your little NinerNation site -- many of your fans are rude and uneducated! You've proven me right by visiting and showing your @ss on our board. Now go home!!!!
(Oh, and to respond to your little dig at how many times UNCC has made the NCAA Tourney versus Bradley in the last 10 years. Who cares! Nobody in NC even knows this! In Peoria, Bradley has been and always will be King. You see, our players put on a good competitive show AND GRADUATE!!!! They can read, write and communicate with class and dignity. I'll take this anyday over a team and school that nobody knows about and, more importantly, NOBODY CARES ABOUT

Over the past 10 yrs (AVG):
RPI
Charlotte: 60

Win Percentage
Char: .6024
Bradley: .5364Comment

People are welcome to post opposing viewpoints, but flaming (everyone knows what it is) and insulting posts won't be tolerated.Comment

DC.....you would expect Charlotte fans to be happy after winning the Coley sweepstakes. Not surprised there have been a few on here today.Originally posted by Da Coach
My advice.....the easiest way to make a flamer go away is to just ignore them.Comment

Re: Who is UNCC?
While I won't waste my time debunking these moronic ad hominem attacks, I'll point out that my SAT and GPA were both higher than the average for your school and the most important part of this thread: We got Coley.Originally posted by Braves4LifeWow! This "laughing" guy is a real card

If your athletes can read, write, and communicate with class and dignity, then why can you do none of the aforementioned?

Re: Who is UNCC?
I tried to show class on here, and I will maintain that. I don't necessarily agree with the way "Laughing" approached debate on here an I really don't want you guys to think we are a bunch of jerks, because we're not. But I have to say B4L, comparing Charlotte and Bradley education-wise is apples and oranges... Bradley is a liberal arts achool. We have a liberal arts school with in our university. In fact we have several schools. You may be able to make such claims against our liberal arts school, but we also have schools of engineering, nursing, business, architecture, computing/information & education. I'm not getting into the pissing match between you and laughing. I am just pointing out the fallacy in the argument.Originally posted by Braves4LifeGo Niners!Comment

Re: Who is UNCC?
Great. I hope Charlie does well in Charlotte. We got David Collins, so I guess that makes it 1-1 recruiting-wise. Oh well.Originally posted by laughing1We got Coley.

Class and dignity? You have posted with very little. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
CheVEE, you're OK in my book. Hope to see you throughout the season.Onward and Upward!

Bradley is NOT a liberal arts school. It's a business and engineering school.
By the way, CHEVee, I was afraid we'd run you away, and your posts have been classy and you're welcome here in my book... I have no idea what the academic standards are at Charlotte and I will not comment on that becuase it has nothing to do with college basketball or where Charlie Coley went. I did however, need to correct an assertion that BU is a liberal arts school. Stop by now and again and let us know how Charlie is doing over there.
I ignore guys like laughing, and I wish more of us had because nobody came out of that exchange looking good.Comment
