Wasn't Shanley part of that child molestation group? That's why many people refer to Providence U. as Pervert U. Correct?

Close jj, but no cigar. different Shanley than the one quoted in Rick's footnote. Here's the story: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Paul Richard Shanley (born January 25, 1931), is an American defrocked priest who was accused and convicted of raping a child. He served at St. Jean's Parish in Newton, Massachusetts and was a prominent figure in the Boston clergy sex abuse scandal. |

Real story from an Irish fan:
Been away for a while but I had to share a funny story with you all because with everyone here being the die-hard Irish fans that you are I'm sure you can appreciate it....
So I printed out the Irish 09 schedule a few weeks ago. As I do every year, I printed out 2 copies--one for me and one for my 9 year old son--so we can do our "Win-Loss Predictions" for the season. Every year that my son has filled out his record predictions he has always come back with the same record....12-0. He never thinks the Irish will lose! So this year we decided to sweeten the pot a little bit and I told him that if he accurately predicts the Irish record I will buy him any two XBox 360 games that he wants. Needless to say he was really excited and couldn't wait to go write in his predictions. Before I gave him the schedule though, I gave him a long speech about trying to be realistic when looking at the record and trying to be rational so as to give himself a chance. I said to really look at each game and where it is played to determine the outcome. He gave me the obligatory "I know, I know, Dad" and ran off to his room to write it down. He came back to me in less than 90 seconds and says "Here you go, Dad. All done." I look at the record he predicted for the season..........12-0!!!
Man I love that Kid!!!
