...also missed chuckling derisively at Cleveland fans each time the Steelers win. Look for me to be laughing my socks off this Sunday, as Kordell dries his eyes and gets down to business, and Detmer gets distracted by the age-old conundrum: Why are the Browns? uniforms so darn ugly? Bernie will be there, but he?ll be too far away from the action to do the Browns much good, as the Steelers finish with a comfortable 10-point lead...

At times I even get the impression that they think wearing...
...reliance on Harvard as the Ivy League nemesis--must they really compare themselves to Harvard? Can't a university wake up in the morning, look at itself in mirror, and (to quote the ancient semi-comedic television past), declare "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darn it, people like me"? Perhaps the US News and World Report has eliminated this forever, but why the constant competition...
