WOW - talk about putting a lot of words in someone's mouth! But if you feel better now after your little rant, then it was worth it!

I still think the players did not use common sense. For Duke being such a prestigious university, they have some not-very-bright students, looks like. Just makes me wonder what they were thinking. Oh well, boys will be boys I guess.

I put no words in your mouth but I did question your motives.

The post is a factual recounting of behavior of other people faced by the lax team in contradiction of your point of view that the entire team had not been dragged through the mud. I note you chose to not address them.

whether you like it or not, locomotive breath accurately summed up the impression your posts have left on this thread. you can deny that is how you feel, but your posts have left that impression.

This is not a case of "boys will be boys". If this case were about the strippers hiring lawyers to sue the boys for "non-payment", we'd all be discussing the argument YOUR way: about both sides.

We haven't even got close to having that discussion and because 2 or 3 boys are going to be put away, maybe for life, on what appears to be a false accusation. Once that vry big matter is resolved, one way or another, the obvious discussion about the morals of the boys of the strippers, etc, have a more "synergistic" reality of being discussed.

The MSM tried these boys IN PUBLIC, MADE THEM OUT AS GUILTY before any facts were known. Are they guilty of being bad in having underage drinking on premises? Yes. Of hiring strippers? YES.

We, here, are waging massive retaliation against the GUILTY BEFORE ANY FACTS KNOWN mantra by the MSM and their Disciplines by digging up facts the MSM does not care to have revealed. That's gotta come first.
