[NU Sports] NU Withdraws Honorary Degree for Rev. Wright

[Hakirsch at aol.com]

Geez--heavans no --Talking about Giradi is spot on--He's an NU grad in the 
sports field--So are discussions about Irv Cross, Brent Musberger, Mike  Wilbon, 
Alan Abrahamson, David Israel, Willie Weinbaum , etc etc .  This to me is 
just what the site ought to talking about--I believe the more NU has its name in 
the sport's arena, whether by our alums as athletes or in sports  journalism , 
the better shot we have at recruiting athletes who may know little about our 
program--When Irv and Brent used to do football together , and NU would come 
up, Irv would say something like ."isn't that your ala mater Brent- ?-" and 
Brent would say something back," I thought it was yours"

Anyhow--I in no way want to limit our sports discussions and as said will 
defer to Mike Nolan on other boundaries
