Family Feud’s casting coordinator, Bridget Goodbody, said that the show was looking for a team that represented Harvard well. “All of our team members have wonderful personalities that really stood out in their videos,” she said. The team will spend the next two weeks watching several episodes of the show, studying the Family Feud database, which contains previously used questions, and, perhaps most importantly, picking uniforms.

Yankee management never passed over into that netherworld of statistics and other alchemical arcana; rather, they continued to rely on what had always worked: character and heart. The Stadium, their home in the Bronx, stood firm for what was best about the sport, as other, lesser teams floated aimlessly in a sea of unchecked change...
