Following Kevin Armstrong’s column today on SI.com slurping Duke lacrosse, I’m finally ready to bid farewell to the Duke lacrosse story.

These kids need to stop acting like martyrs and get on with their lives as best they can. Everyone in this situation behaved poorly, Duke’s administration (AD and president) should resign because of how quick they were to throw these kids and the program under the bus. Prosecuting attorney Mike Nifong should be disbarred. But lest we forget where all of this started: with the poor behavior of the Duke lacrosse team. That’s right, kids. You can blame everyone else for what’s happened over the course of the past year but all this whole mess began when the Duke lacrosse team hired strippers for a team function. Accept that some of the blame for this is yours and just play lacrosse.
