...weekly dilemmas with a refreshing albeit vicious, rationality that has proven too much for even quirks of fate to overcome. I've been abused, it is true, but now I've rebounded and I'm twisting again. Yet I must retain an appealing humility, and I must remember Captain Crunch's important role in the grand scheme of these things. As Moses led the Jews out of the darkness of Egypt, so Captain Crunch led me to my present state of football enlightenment...

...than three, important contests today. Brown and Columbia will have a week to work out some wrinkles in their play with non-league teams Colgate and Rutgers. If all goes well, I'll pick the three big winners. I've been having closed door sessions with the magical Captain Crunch all week, and we think we've reached some reasonable decisions.

I really had to wonder about the strength of certain biological drives in Crimson people when only three guys there, including me, agreed to go. And one of them was a business board type. So I got friends to complete the team of six. I brushed my teeth before we left; I had never brushed my teeth before a football game before. Yes, this...

...Captain Crunch. My success, that is, I was helpless without him since all summer in Mt. Kisco he was by my side, but once I got up here, he was nowhere to be found. By a stroke of good fortune, I found him waiting for me in Sage's the other day. Now with his guidance, there is no doubt in my mind that I can predict with an accuracy of 94 per cent or better...
