So Appropriate

UNC is playing right now, actually.

Received this funny little story via email today... and it's SO appropriate.

Two boys in Raleigh were playing basketball when one of them was attacked by a rabid Rottweiler. Thinking quickly, the other boy ripped a board off a nearby fence, wedged it into the dog's collar and twisted it, breaking the dog's neck.

A newspaper reporter from the News & Observer witnessed the incident and rushed over to interview the boy. The reporter began entering data into his laptop, beginning with the headline: "Brave Young Tar Heels Fan Saves Friend From Jaws Of Vicious Animal."

"But I'm not a Heels fan," the little hero interjected..

"Sorry," replied the reporter. "But since we're in North Carolina, I just assumed you were." Hitting the delete key, the reporter begins again, "NC State Fan Rescues Friend From Horrific Dog Attack."

"But I'm not a State fan either," the boy responds.

The reporter says, "I assumed everybody in this state was either for the Heels or the Wolfpack. What team do you root for?"

"I'm a Duke fan," the boy says, grinning widely.

Hitting the delete key, the reporter begins again, "Arrogant Little Yankee Bastard Kills Beloved Family Pet."Bwahaha. Hope you all enjoyed. Sorry Beaufort Belle... I'll try and pass along some Duke funnies for your house divided, too.
