Hey, A.A. Cunningham, have you put any more notches on the rectory wall?

Can we all agree that there is no more sweetness to big-time college coaching? That it died with $5 million contracts, TV pressures and Bobby Knight?

For most of my adult life I've been a fan of Bobby Knight. Did he preside over some similar scandal that I missed?

Would that he had built his reputation at Minnesota rather than Indiana. If he had I bet we would have avoided some of the moral and criminal fiascos that took place...again...through my adult life, under three or four different head coaches and associated with Minnesota basketball. Plus we might have won an NCAA title or two along the way.

I can’t believe I actually AGREE with you about something.

Actually the rate is less in the Church than schools and about the same as most other professions, including clergy who are not RCs.

But then, don't let the facts stop you from frothing.

Joe Paterno a martyr? Not only no but Hell NO

My friend's 23 year old son who was murdered by muslims while on a mission trip preaching the word of God in Central Asia for Campus Crusade for Christ this past December is a martyr....not some pedophile-protecting scumbag!
