"Believe or not there are still country clubs that do not allow blacks- they are private organizations and it is their right to allow who they want inside their club, so he is telling the truth"
Not exactly. It's kind of a Michael Moore truth. There are lot os clubs lots of people can't get into. I'm white and I guaran-damn-tee you Tiger Woods can get in a hell of a lot more country clubs than me. Besides, he is a pro golfer. I don't see any club that hosts a pro tournament telling Tiger he can't play because his Dad is black. Just not gonna happen. Those who choose to believe otherwise LIKE holding on to those beliefs.

Aha! Another contestant playing the "Lawsuit Lottery"

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, and assuming that this is true...which I HIGHLY doubt...
If Nike is going to make this incendiary claim...then they should back it up...by naming those country clubs that will not allow blacks to play.
For the record, I do not doubt that there are private clubs with no black members. But I do not believe for a moment there is a single country club that will turn away Tiger Woods.
Tawanna Brawley. Where's Sharpton on this?
May 2nd is just a primary. But Durham is heavily democratic so whoever wins the Dem primary will win the general election.
My prediction: The alleged victim pulls a "Kobe" and refuses to participate in the prosecution. This gives Nifong a face-saving way out and leaves a perpetual cloud of suspicion hanging over the heads of the Dukies. The girl will get a free education courtesy of Jesse Jackson and the race baiters will have created enough racial strife to keep the corporate donations(ie shakedowns)coming for years.

Two young white boys from nice, sheltered homes made famous by the media for allegedly raping a black woman in a state lockup - that is the ultimate description of cellblock "fresh meat".
The same kind of corrupt judge than can give a suspected murder 50K bail and an alleged rapist 400K bail will put them in the general population.

The stripper who charges she was raped by Duke University lacrosse players is so traumatized she sometimes screams at the sight of white men in the street, a new report says.

I had held some belief in the possibility that some of the Duke guys might have done something to this woman. After reading that load-of-crap, I am absolutely convinced she's just a lying street whore. 20 years in prison for her will not be enough punishment.
She needs to go on Oprah with a voice modifier and filmed in shadow.
But quite possibly pretty accurate.

I'm not questioning or challenging you, but can you name any of those clubs? I just want to know who the buttholes are and maybe send'em some nasty postcards.
I believe you are correct. Having experienced this first-hand and what was done to our son, you would be spot on.
But not the white DA I'm sure.......
I read earlier that there is no Repubican candidate, so whoever wins in the the Democratic primiary, becomes the DA.
Trauma coming from being caught in lies in an attempt to cover her own rear end
Duke's graduation ceremonies end on May 14th. I've read somewhere that there's a concern for the safety of Duke students if the case should be dropped and rioting should occur. They want them out of town before anything major should happen. Don't know if it's true, but it would make sense.
Nifong's a real tool. Politicians - they keep reminding us that the second profession is a lot like the first.
They didn't. The "bait and switch" by the escort service is a factor in what precipitated this whole situation.
