...first play (with remarkable clarity, too, thanks to Harvard’s draconian booze statutes): with Harvard’s star defensive tackle Michael Berg and his cohorts stacking the line to stop McLeod, Polhemus faked a handoff to the wunderkind and dashed 19 yards on a naked bootleg.

But walking around Kuala Lumpur during the dogs' visit, I saw little evidence that video pirates were running scared. Vendors openly hawked copies of recent Hollywood hits along with popular films from India's film industry, Bollywood. Many of the covers featured misspellings - Judd Apatow's Knicked Up, anyone...
