1. You made the local news.

   Posted on You Tube, the burgeoning portal for idiosyncratic, non-professional videos, the commentary created by Peter “PMD” Rosenberg and directed by Michael Wolcott was an immediate hit. Spurred by Gerald Henderson’s inadvertent blow to Tyler Hansbrough, the 3-minute, 22-second video is an alternately clever and mean-spirited parody — with Duke basketball as the target — of the hit song “This is Why I’m Hot.” (The original by the New York rapper Sean Mims, which hit the No.1 spot on the “Billboard Hot 100” earlier this year, includes such impeccably logical lyrics as “I’m hot ‘cause I’m fly, you ain’t ‘cause you not.”)

   Impressively, since being posted barely a week ago in the comedy category, the video excoriating the Duke program, coach Mike Krzyzewski, various Blue Devil players, and a supposedly obsequious Dick Vitale has attracted just shy of a half-million viewers. Earlier this week a “prude version” without profanity, deemed “safe for work,” was posted.
