...championship game against Delaware, Harvard raced to an 8-0 lead just three minutes into the game, thanks to some tag-team action from Butler and Reinhard, and never looked back en route to a 75-60 victory...
Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby's post-election switch from Democrat to winning-team Republican apparently has a price tag.
