Your friendly FITSter will be the first to admit that Mrs. FITS isn't
exactly up to snuff on all the details and nuances of ACC hoops; so when
Her Extreme Loveliness wandered into the living room last night during the
UNC- Ga. Tech game, pointed at the screen and inquired "So who's that
Ramblin' Wreck in front of the Tar Heel bench," FITS could only conclude

"No, honey," replied your patient purveyor of polished prose. "UNC is the
Tar Heels, and Georgia Tech is the Ramblin' Wreck."
"No, dear," squawked The Missus, "The sixty year-old guy," as she clearly
pointed one of her six lovely legs at none other than Tar Heel mentor Matt
Doherty.
"THAT Ramblin' Wreck!"

disappearing into the kitchen.

the Tar Heels began what could loosely be called a sequence of "defense,"
"I guess it just goes to show that imitation is the sincerest form of
flattery.
