Langston needs to stop exposing what he learned in school or his idiocy by going back and play his video games. Hmmmm! May be I could use him as an example to help my thirteen year old nephew. You guys know the one . . . "this is your brain; this is you brain on video games".
Itās so easy to picture Langston sitting on his couch with his X-box controller in his hand and a pork rind stuck to the side of his cheek. I can see him with his College Hoops game scrolling through the list of teams for a quick game. Before he clicks āstartā heāll chuckle to himself and realize that he picked the āMiami (OH)ā team from the Mid-American Conference. āOopsā, heāll say, and then he will quickly go back to the ACC directory to choose āMiamiā.
But then heāll decide to play his beloved Tar Heels against a Big East opponent. Pittsburgh is a good team. Maybe heāll play a lousy team like South Florida. Providence is sometimes overlooked. Should he choose Syracuse? It might be fun to play the video game in their arena. Louisville? Cincinnati?
Then he spills some nacho cheese on his underwear and inadvertantly moves the left thumbstick. Heāll accidently moves to a different team selection page and see the words āCharlotteā with a green background and a pickaxe āCā symbol spinning around.
āWHAAAAA?ā, heāll exclaim. Is this the Charlotte city council? Confusion will seep in and he wonāt know what to do. After an hour or two or staring blankly at the screen, heāll pass out on the couch while he drools into a McDonaldās napkin.

Do they have a section of a freshman class at Crap Hole Hill that teaches that they are the only university worth a sh!t in the state because they were the first, and that any school with āUNCā at the begining is open for abuse and manipulation?

According to a very close member of my family, they do precisely thatā¦ especially in Journalism and the TV type majors.

Dammit! Not only is Langston giving Carolina and Charlotte a bad name. Now heās doing it to video games! This time itās personalā¦ again.
I actually replied again last night. The dang comment field has a 1000 character limit. I had to revise mine down from 2000+. This guys just makes it too easy and fun. That comment about getting the Bobcats or whoever mixed up with the city council still makes me laugh.
[QUOTE][SIZE=4]Q[/SIZE] We agree UNCC is the name that should be permanently attached. With all the history of Charlotte torn down with the wrecking ball downtown and all over we cant allow these same wreckers to destroy this UNCC name. Heck, some wanted to change it to Charlotte U or U of Charlotte. Stupid. 30 yrs from now there would probably want to change it again. Never ending. Isnt it odd how history is important everywhere but here? Look at the holy lands. Palestine/Israel and all places sill have the same names and buildings after 3500 yrs. There is even a Nazareth, Jerico, Bethlehem etc. all intact. Nothings changed. Leave history and names alone. UNCC is a great name. āCharlotteā is already taken.

[SIZE=4]A [/SIZE]Donāt know if Iād go comparing Charlotte with Nazareth, but I feel you. Point taken. I did like Sorensenās suggestion that Charlotte join the Southern conference (he wrote getting ready for all the nasty replies).
The costs of starting football would be cheaper and Charlotte could rule the basketball-playing portion of the league most years. I hate the A-10 thing, by the way. [B]Langston Wertz[/B] 12/15/06
