Our readers got so excited about Duke University’s Men’s Basketball Team’s efforts to Bleed Blue, Live Green that we posted on them twice. Now, thanks to tipsters Sasha and Anonymous, we are pleased to announce that the University has decided to sell the sought after t-shirts through the student shop. We’re delighted to see they were made and printed using sustainable materials and methods too. Go Duke! ::Duke University::via tipsters Sasha and anonymous – with thanks::


















Are you kidding? The Duke students ripped off their green shirts when they thought that they were causing them to lose the basketball game against NC State. Apparently sustainability doesn't hold a match to superstition.
Hey, at least they wore them on national TV for a full half. That's more than most schools can say. Remember, they were first an foremost there to watch their basketball team win, not to promote sustainability. I don't blame them for making a statement about their team in that way. If anything, the green shirts on the floor served to highlight them even more. BTW, it's "hold a candle to", not "hold a match to".
