Football

The Saint Clement football team improved to 2-0 by defeating Old Colony High School 43-20 on Saturday afternoon. After a scoreless first quarter, Junior Deron Hines (Chelsea) opened a lead for the boys with an eight yard run touchdown in the second quarter. After Old Colony scored, Junior Nick Codair (Stoneham) put the Anchors back on top with a seventy-eight yard kick return. Shortly after gaining the ball back, Senior Captain Jamey Thompson (Everett) gave the ball to Senior Jesus Gambaro (Charlestown) for a five yard run into the end zone.

 Meet Col. Thomas J. Foley, author of Most Wanted: Pursuing Whitey Bulger, the Murderous Mob Chief the FBI Secretly Protected.

It has been known that Whitey Bulger was a secret informant for the FBI, but it has never been revealed—until now—that the FBI was actually actively protecting Bulger from Foley, effectively derailing Foley’s efforts to stop Bulger’s horrific crime sprees time and again. At one point, the FBI even presented Foley with a plaque at a holiday party that read “the Most Hated Man in Law Enforcement,” a not-so-subtle suggestion that he and his team should lay off their investigation.
