Politicians still keep running for a rumble seat on the Springsteen bandwagon, however. New Jersey Senator Bill Bradley has written about the Boss for USA Today and, declaring himself "an old rock and roller," told the CBS Morning News that Bruce was "part Elvis, he's part Chuck Berry, he's part Buddy Holiday."

In the plainest uniforms, down to the bare calves and black shoes, they even dress the part. Quoting a predecessor, Junior Quarterback John Shaffer recalls, "Chuck Fusina once said that if Coach Paterno could get away with it, he'd remove the numbers from the jerseys."
