[NU Sports] RE: nwu-sports Digest, Vol 4, Issue 340

[johnadeg at comcast.net]

Why do you think that no real success has been accomplished despite what Murphy has been able to accomplish.
Bringing Bush into th equation is a joke.  He comes closer to being a Dem than a Republican.  The issue is the influence of the liberal faculty.  Read some of the comments in this chat room and you'll find my views aren't a national sampling of one.  You might recall some of the faculty comments after Barnett brought NU out of football oblivion.  They were shocked and anguished.  YOur comments suggest to me that in your undergraduate days you may have been one of those people running up and down the street with  a North Vietnam flag.
