Holy Cross managed to grab a slim three-point lead on a Keister layup inside five minutes into the second frame, but a three-pointer by sophomore guard Oliver McNally caromed up off the rim and into the net to tie things up. The Crimson shot 52 percent from the field and took 35 foul shots, most of which came in the second half. McNally contributed 11 points on six-for-six shooting at the line, and 10 of Lin’s points came on free throws...

"White," rather, reminded us too vividly that Fox had bumped to midseason the heftier black keister of Thurgood Stubbs, animated star of The PJs, in favor of Ally, the half-hour Mini-Me to Ally McBeal and, incidentally, part of the most Caucasian fall lineup in years. It should not have surprised anyone, then, that N.A.A.C.P. president Kweisi Mfume last week issued a similarly spirited directive to the Big Four...

Ambrose's macro war is suitably conventional. Allied Commander Eisenhower was the right man in the right job; British Field Marshal Montgomery was an obstructionist and all-round pain in the keister; Patton was the best field general of the war, despite eugenic notions that were strictly Third Reich--he pulled the bravest men off of the front to preserve their bloodlines...
