...system he’s had a lot of success with. Beilein has piloted three different teams (Canisius, Richmond, and West Virginia) to 20-win seasons and NCAA Tournament berths. His last three seasons in Morgantown, he won 73 games. But his best Mountaineers teams featured an odd tandem of stars: Mike Gansey, a shooting guard who might not have been able to dunk but sure could shoot, and Kevin Pittsnogle, a 6’11 forward who could pass and shoot the trey. Their offense, though it hoisted more than its share of threes, was primarily based on motion...
...Israeli officials believe their intelligence services are privy to all the information on Iran gathered by their American counterparts, and vice versa.

I also remember a spotless 10-0 Harvard football season, led by the truly unfair tandem of Ryan Fitzpatrick ’05 and Clifton Dawson ’07. And I remember my first exposure to The Game, a 35-3 demolition of the last obstacle between the Crimson and the Ivy title.The truth is, Harvard had a culture of winning...
...racing world it's called drafting--staying right behind the leader until she wears out and then vaulting past her at the finish. In the competition for the Democratic presidential nomination, Hillary Clinton has two racers on her heels, and so far they have worked well in tandem. But as Clinton shows signs of flagging, Barack Obama and John Edwards are facing a difficult choice: continue to focus their attacks on the front runner or go after each other...
