ACC Baseball Tournament

It still galls me that Mike Martin's whining got the ACC moved out of Greenville. It stands as testament that the ACC took steps to ensure their baseball tournament will never again enjoy the success it once garnered SOLELY because one freakin' coach claimed it gave Clemson a home field advantage---the hypocrisy conference naturally has held the tournament in Durham numerous times since where, apparently, no home field advantage is gained by Duke, unc or NCSt.

While true that Mike Martin b!tched and moaned to the ACC

about the unfair advantage playing the tournament in Greenville provided Clemson, I can't help but wonder why playing the Tournament in Durham or Greensboro annually doesn't give that same unfair advantage to teams like Duke, Wake, UNC, and NC State? Don't even get me started on the ACC Basketball Tournament. Nothing but ACC hypocritical double-standard.

I think Myrtle Beach is an ideal location. I would plan a vacation around that. Wilmington would also make sense.

Didn't realize Duke and UNC have such rought finishes. Maybe we can still finished 4th.
