...Klein for his piece on legalizing marijuana [April 13]. The tax revenues a legal industry could generate--not just from pot but from hemp products as well--could solve major economic issues. I may have spent much of my high school years in a doobie-induced haze (and have led a successful life since, by the way), but I do vaguely recall something from history class about the repeal of Prohibition and the subsequent taxation of liquor playing a significant role in our nation's recovery from the Great Depression.

Pizzotti left his mark on the Harvard record books, placing himself on a short list of players to have a hand in three Ivy Championships. The fifth-year senior watched from the sidelines as Fitzpatrick led the Crimson to a perfect 10-0 season in 2004, then led two back-to-back championship teams of his own in 2007 and 2008. The Jets used their first-round pick to claim quarterback Mark Sanchez from USC, so Pizzotti will start down the depth chart. Of course, Pizzotti...
