Great story. The Duke lacrosse players and fans demonstrating the class that the Duke faculty and administration lacks.

Great picture and great story... Isn’t it comforting to know that probably 99% of the people who condemned and convicted the Duke lacrosse players of rape and wanted them thrown in the pen or crucified before any evidence of misdeeds were shown in court are among those who gave Obama his breakthrough victory last Tuesday?

That’s your constituency, Barack! Elite pseudo-intellectuals who don’t belong among the Duke faculty (except for their expertise in “women’s studies” and other politically correct pseudo-mish-mash) and the Raleigh-Durham African American community who jumped on board the trumped up charges.

It is nice to see that at least one of the victims of this persecution has been able to move on with his life.

Look at those smiles. That picture will hang on at least 11 walls for the next fifty years.

1. Glad to see he’s landed on his feet but sorry to see him playing for one of the red orders. The cult of Arupe should be shut down until the communist “liberation theologians” are purged from the Church altogether.

2. As a sport, why is lacrosse not more popular than basketball? Lacrosse has strategy, teamwork, defense and dirt. Basketball just looks like a bunch of ants running back and forth a postage stamp. I can’t recognize much in the way of strategy, any serious attempt at defense is against the rules and it’s the most “Me” oriented sport I’ve ever seen. Lacrosse is a lot more fun to watch.

Yesterday was a great day for lacrosse and today also looks great.

The Navy game last night was fantastic.

Duke has the highest scoring offense and can't wait to see it tested.

Duke players say Finnerty remains part of their group even though he wore the opposing uniform during the Blue Devils' 12-7 victory. He was one of the three falsely accused players in the highly publicized rape case stemming from 2006. His decision to transfer took him to Loyola.

In the tournament game, he scored. And again. And again.

Each time there was the same reaction: Hearty ovation from Duke fans.

Bless 'em

Fantastic story & pic to go with it. Hope things are going as well for Dave & Reade.

Thanks for posting this.

Thanks so much for this piece of sweet news. May Colin continue enjoying life....away from the Duke president and faculty.

Ah, to be back in college. I’m salivating in my coffee.

Thanks for posting that, abb.

Not sure why, but that picture of Colin in his green jersey surrounded by his former teammates brings tears to my eyes.
