Fans can feel the difference. After games, those who have made it to the end groan at the late hour. It’s a shame that students should have to choose between an English paper and the World Series. For those, God forbid, who have class or work in the morning, a healthy sleep cycle is also at stake...
...punched the shot over the crossbar to keep the game within one. “Another great game,” Hoff said of Hahn’s performance. “He really gave us a chance—that one save was unbelievable. It is just a shame for him to have another loss in his column.” That loss will prove to be very costly for the Crimson. With two Ivy League defeats, Harvard has all but squandered its chances of reclaiming the Ivy League title. Without the league championship, the Crimson will have...
...Marshall for his wonderful first-person account of the recent peaceful protests in Burma [Oct. 22]. As I read it, I thought that perhaps this was the country Vice President Dick Cheney was thinking about when he said our invading forces would be greeted as liberators.

The cover and the story, which included dated...
...most brilliant satirization of our own pop culture yet to date? In raising so many (irrelevant) questions, “Gimme More” is aptly titled. One thing the video decidedly doesn’t offer is any suggestion of a farewell. It’s a shame, but even worse, it’s boring. She was our queen. We watched her crash and burn. Now let’s walk away from the wreckage and move on. —Nayeli E. Rodriguez
