...those bids will automatically go to the victor of the eight-team ECAC Tournament. But the heavy favorite is Harvard, which is already invited. If the Crimson does make the ECAC championship game, as expected, its opponent in that contest should get a bid regardless of the outcome...
...this hypothesizing may prove foolishly premature. There is the chance that the Hillary boomlet is being stoked by the Administration as the perfect post-impeachment diversion: a party in honor of the scandal's only victor, a celebration that doesn't appear smug. Who better than Hillary to fill the media vacuum left by That Woman?

Bela Fleck and the Flecktones delivered a private performance last weekend at Tufts University. Besides Bela, the band includes Victor Wooten on bass guitar, "Future Man" (Wooten's brother) on synthesized percussion and Jeff Coffin on sax.

Each singer has talent and appeal, each woman has confidence and poise. With such an even playing field, it would be difficult to predict a possible victor before match time. Admittedly, allegiances among fans are inevitable and sides would be taken. Morissette is certainly more popular in mainstream music, and Manson's Garbage is universally revered among rock critics. But even with these loyalties, the battle would be too close to call...
