Forget the writer: a team spokesman cops to it. And admits that all Michigan added was vulgarity.
Gotta say they blew it without even really mentioning Lynah
As bad as the diss on "30 Rock" last night?
Tracy considering various offers after apparently winning an Oscar:

The story said it was on account of the opponent being Sacred Heart. At Cornell games, I've seen Princeton fans drift in throughout the first period and first intermission. Hobey Baker Rink remains the ultimate prep school facility.
