It's both a matter of principle and manner of therapy. See, following rare Duke basketball no-shows (see Wednesday's 22-point loss at NC State), I try my darndest to focus on the next season until the team from the current season shows up again (this one will, but still, the most lopsided loss under Mike Krzyzewski to an unranked squad, well, that was truly mind-boggling considering the seven-game win streak that preceded it).
Fortunately, this site has writers with less severe fandom disorders who were admirably able to offer their expanded thoughts on Duke's white-flag interior defense and listless body language against the Wolfpack (see: "Coach K is right, this is an old-fashioned team" and "Why Blue Devils will recover and win the national title").
