I will admit, too, that I love Duke Football, which is why it hurt the way it did. Duke Football is a true passion in my life and a joy that I have shared with my wife, also a Duke alum, for many years. And why do you subject yourself to the great joys, followed by the inevitably greater disappointments of being a Duke Football fan? Many people hate Duke Football for the same reason I love Duke Football. Duke Football players are tough.
