The Duke Curse




As a life-long (OK..3rd Grade and counting) fan of Duke Basketball, this is not something I haven't noticed. It always seems to be my favorite players (the Hurley's, the Hills, the Avery's (who even remembers him?), the Jason Williams) who end up getting career-ending injuries or just falling off the face of the earth. I know Hill has "come-back" numerous times, but lets face it, dude has more metal inside him than Robocop. Who knows if Jason Williams was smart for postponing his comeback, or if no one was interested in one. Anyway, here's an old article on the curse of Duke from SI

(PS...I didn't forget EB or CM, I'm just avoiding the obligatory jinx)
