...Tintin comic strip ran for over half a century, but Hergé maintained that his boy wonder was always just shy of his 18th birthday. Ostensibly a reporter - although he is seen filing a story in only one frame in the entire 24-book oeuvre - Tintin took on various roles as detective, Boy Scout and secret agent. As time went by, he accumulated friends: along with his astute and faithful dog, Snowy, his retinue included cantankerous sailor Captain Haddock; eccentric egghead Professor Calculus; and the doltish, bowler-hatted, doppelgänger detectives, Thomson and Thompson.

But heading into the fourth quarter down, 17-6, Pizzotti buckled down to notch three final-frame touchdowns—one by air, two by land—to edge out the Crusaders, 25-24. He finished the day with 370 passing yards in the spectacular comeback.In the next contest against Brown, Pizzotti kept a drive alive as the clock wore down, setting Harvard up for a touchdown...
