We received some mail from Andy Britt here at DBR Central responding to the criticism of his article at goheels.com. So, in the interest of equal time, here's his response:
It was definitely a little too rebel rousing. I meant it to sound a little harsh in a comedic way, but I didn't mean for it to make people as authentically mad as they seemed to have gotten. I respect the Duke program very much. I have always been treated well in the pressbox and hold the sports information staff in the highest regard. That may seem hard to believe after reading this column. I pushed the envelope a little too far I admit. This is not a retraction, the article was clearly an opinion piece. I just wanted to fuel harmless flames, not cruel or insensitive ones. I grew up in the middle of the rivalry and love it so. Being new to Goheels I don't think I truly anticipated the number of readers. I will learn. I sincerely apologize for any harm done.Sincerely,
Andy Britt
