...host. For the first time since then, I was wearing it out of school spirit, and not because I needed to do laundry. Listen: we have no mascot. We can never have a mascot because our teams are idiotically named after a color. We’re at a serious deficit at these games already. So even though I’m a whining champ, even though there are ants infesting my room in a school richer than most countries, even though Eliot dinner runs out around 6:15, even though I think the Core Office loves it when...

Veteran Oscar watchers hoped in vain to glimpse the Jerry who, as the Academy Awards host 50 years ago, cavorted and mugged for nearly 20 minutes when he was told the show had run short.

This was none the more obvious than in Lin’s performance, as the junior standout battled to an amazing 12 points despite a serious ankle injury, which forced him to hobble at every dead ball.And on top of that, the Crimson was holding an ace in the hole—Housman. The guard lit up the Penn defense for 22 huge points on top of five assists, going 8-12 from the floor...
