"Sports are finished."(John Knowles 63)
This new from Doctor Stanpole devastates Gene. He had finally realized that Finny never harbored ill will for him during any point of Gene’s single sided rivalry. Gene admits to being the reason that Finny had fell and is beginning to realize the extent of damage caused by his self righteousness. Finny lived for sports, he was great at them and this had all been taken away by Gene. Gene has helped break one of Finny’s commandments; that nothing bad can come of sports. Sports can bring grief for one who loves them and knows he cannot play them. Gene recognizes that he is responsible for his actions and tries to shield himself from reality. Will Finny and Gene's friendship remain unchanged?
