...athletes. Well, it's true that the nerds' main form of exercise is masturbation, but they are every bit as competitive as the towel-snapping guys on the football team.

After a series of punts, the Crimson appeared to be driving for an insurance...
...chest—wrenching than that of 2005.For it was a seemingly innocent chest bump by senior safety Danny Tanner that swayed the momentum in Princeton’s favor, turning a late third-down incompletion into a new set of downs and the eventual game-winning touchdown in the Tigers’ 31-28 win.“They’ve got a tough job, but I haven’t seen that call in college football, in the Ivy League,” Murphy said after the game. “I still don?...
