Anyone with half a brain in the athletic department could have found it; worse, I thought it was common knowledge those early patriots were no fans of the papists. <br /><br />I only wish you had not mentioned the Oliver Cromwell statute. Some in the athletic department may think that is a good idea.

Harvard <br />College sponsored a series of lectures devoted in part to <br />"detecting, convicting and exposing the idolatry, errors and <br />superstitions of the Romish church." In New York, John Jay (later <br />the first chief justice of the Supreme Court) argued that <br />Catholics should be denied property and civil rights unless they <br />denounced "the dangerous and damnable doctrine that the Pope, or <br />any other earthly authority, hath power to absolve men from their <br />sins."<br /><br />Does our AD Bates know that BC was founded in (and in response to) an environment of strong anti-catholicism in MA and, partly, as a place for irish catholic students who were regularly turned away by the likes if harvard etc.<br /><br />So now through our sports department we celebrate two historic anti catholic figures. ??<br /><br />actauly far worse than the effort to portray BC as "Boston's College" - in sync with those in bars in Southie<br /><br />mod34bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18129365485893573618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-63920951486675391082016-09-24T17:45:15.279-04:002016-09-24T17:45:15.279-04:00Just got back from game.

Their choice of mascots is on line with their choice of coaches. It seems very strange a supposedly Catholic school would select two of the biggest anti-Catholics. <br /><br />Here's a little history. Sam Adams told a group of Mohawk Indians that the law “to establish the religion of the Pope in Canada” would mean that “some of your children may be induced instead of worshipping the only true God, to pay his dues to images made with their own hands.” The silversmith and engraver Paul Revere created a cartoon for the Royal American Magazine called “The Mitred Minuet.” It depicted four contented-looking mitred Anglican Bishops, dancing a minuet around a copy of the Quebec Act to show their “approbation and countenance of the Roman religion.” Standing nearby are the authors of the Quebec Act, while a Devil with bat ears and spiky wings hovers behind them, whispering instructions.<br /><br />Good job BC athletic department. baldysheehanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05206103666610247439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-87014189533172352702016-09-24T16:36:41.949-04:002016-09-24T16:36:41.949-04:00Everything is okay.

Combining a passion that began at the age of five with a professional career spanning over 36 years, his work has appeared on Broadway, television, in feature films, theatre and commercials. Described as whimsical and meticulously crafted, Randy's prolific work reflects a wide range of styles and abilities.<br /> <br />Carfagno developed and honed his puppet building skills by working with the best in the field. He has appeared on Broadway as a puppeteer and has also built and performed in multiple shows with international marionette master Bil Baird of Bil Baird Marionettes.

That it itself should tell you how badly Bates and the coach have brought BC down. Think of this -- if they had gone 12 and 0 this year playing U Mass, U Conn, Wagner, and Buffalo they might not have been in the top 25. <br /><br />It is sad the guy who runs this blog wants to see "a dominant performance that starts to erase the problems of last week." What is a dominant performance against a team that probably would lose to a top high school team?. Will it erase the last four years or do we look at these clowns week by week -- "hey, we had a good season - 6 and 6 - we go to a bowl - give the coach and AD an extension."

Did Rutgers give up football? In this day of conference alignment they must have been left out in the cold. <br />And how about Temple? Still around? I remember a few years ago the joke in AD circles was if you want to get fired, hire a former Temple coach. Thank God BCs too smart to do that.<br /><br />RV WinkleTGShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03792751477740276704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-33406826041054926042016-09-24T15:07:31.357-04:002016-09-24T15:07:31.357-04:00Scoreboard watching - Wisconsin crushing Michigan ...Scoreboard watching - Wisconsin crushing Michigan State on the road.
