His perimeter shooting touch was, uh, impaired last night.
 
Word of advice for SportsJournalists.commers: Don't try to escape the checkpoints. They have chaser cops who are watching for cars who turn around to avoid the checkpoints. It's best to just take your chances at the checkpoint and hope you get lucky.

I'd also say, if you're leaving work and hit a checkpoint on the way out of town, it might be a good thing to cell back to the newsroom and alert your co-workers so they can take another way out and not sit there for a half-hour.

Is there any white guy at Duke that isn't abusing alcohol?

Yes, or your co-workers at the bar, as the case may be.
 
As a Maryland fan, this makes things very hard.

Yes, it is very hard to suppress what I would really love to type right now.

(Flying Headbutt, feel free to weigh in. IJAG, uh, we're sorry in advance.)
 
I thought it was our own beloved Double J after a night at The Harb.
 
Idiot. Everyone knows you just go through the checkpoint and deny, deny, deny. In Durham they'd let him go in a second. Dumbass. Only small amount of schaudenfraud (sp?) now, he's gone. **** him, but he's no longer a Dookie. Good looking out though, Ralphie.
 
Are people actually posting strategies for avoiding DUI checkpoints?

How about don't drink and drive, assholes, so you don't kill an innocent little girl.
 
Sorry, Luggie, but if I HAVEN'T been drinking, I have better things to do than sit 30 minutes waiting to get through a checkpoint.
