Nobody likes going back to work after the Christmas holiday, but Duke’s 44-41 win in the Pinstripe Bowl, their first bowl win since 1961, is a pretty good reason for Duke fans to rush into the office Monday morning. Don’t expect much love from your UNC, NC State, Wake, and ECU co-workers, but they shouldn’t expect you to care, either. Here’s how it should play out in your office:
“How was your holiday? Saw your Blue Devils win on Saturday …”
“Whoa now, relax a bit. That kick looked like it might have been good to me. You have to admit you guys were probably a little bit fortunate …”
“Look man, act like you’ve been there before. Oh wait, I guess you haven’t. How long’s it been since Duke won a bowl game?”
“WHATEVER. WHAT ABOUT THAT UTAH BASKETBALL GAME? HUH?”
“DUDE YOU DIDN’T EVEN KNOW DUKE HAD A FOOTBALL TEAM UNTIL …”
