The Atlantic.com: NCAA as "Whoremasters" running Plantation

Article is written by MLKing's Pulitzer Biographer and great friend of President Clinton, Taylor Branch.
Branch's brother goes to church with this board's frequent contributor Lamar Wadsworth

Scathing definitive article in this cycle of Outrage and calls for Reform.

Extensive Quotes from former N.C. Chancellor and good friend of Cecil Sherman, Bill Friday.

Must reading for all the journalists of progressvie Baptists including Baptists Today, Ethicsdaily.com; Christian Ethics Today and ABP.

I left a message on voicemail for Bob Terry of the Alabama Baptists asking him to bring it to the attention of Rick Lance and Gov Bentley.

I imagine Wayne Flynt will be talking about it this weekend at Huntingdon College and Samford.

Let me know if you hear of discussion on the Paul Finebaum Show; could be interesting.
