RIMSHOTS: Rings, Rivalries, Icons, Idiots & Treks


May 12,’13:  Its been almost two weeks and “the rings” have not thrown the solar system out of kilter; but I suppose a few words are due.  In the all-important “rivals” category, there was an announcement of some import this past week. ..... a Miami Heat fan redefines “complete idiot”.   A Triangle sports media icon makes a move..... and yours truly completes an epic trek – It’s RIMSHOTS ......

Holden Thorp Actually Said.....


May 4,’13:   This past week outgoing UNC@CH Chancellor Holden Thorp sat down for an extended wide-ranging one-on-one interview with legendary Chapel Hill media mogul Jim Heavner (WCHL et al).  Jim played “Mike Wallace” and Holden was  extraordinarily candid as he prepares to see The Old Welll in his rearview mirror.   I’ve listened to every word and am offering you that same opportunity.

The likelihood of you listening and actually changing your carved-in-stone opinions are marginal at best regardless of what your opinions are.    Nevertheless, I DARE you to listen.

A Choice of Heroes


May 2,’13:  He was an 18 year old Hoosier high school hotshot.  In the Spring of 1950, young Neil joined the US Marine Corps.  Six months later he was on the frozen killing ground of The Chosin Reservoir......  Mike would leave his young wife and two young children on Monday morning.  He could not say where he was going or when he might return.  He was going undercover in the very real, very dangerous world of international drug smuggling...... Horace and I played semi-pro baseball together in the mid 60s.  That was before he became a Green Beret and before something called Tet..... Clark was a police detective in the deadliest city in the state.......

Declare Jay Bilas "Czar" then....


April 22,’13:  There was a well-publicized panel discussion on Athletics & Academics held at UNC@CH last Thursday.  Those who knew that have no doubt wondered “was BobLee there?” and, if so, “will BobLee tell us what, if anything, it really amounted to?”   Of Course and Of Course.  That is, after all, why you visit here.....

A Mini-Cooper vs An 18-Wheeler

April 18,’13:  Well well.... our last column sure kicked over an anthill, huh?  The name “BobLee” has seeped into some new nook & crannies and emerged with all sorts of colorful adjectives attached to it!..... hehehe.  A few more transitional thoughts about UNC goings-on; and we will move on to more global issues.

Oh gezzzz, I just saw Pierce’s latest on “Testosterone”.   We better keep our Kevlar civvies on for a few more days. .......
