Harvard takes the field in the wake of disruption. During the past week, Restic has worked with three quarterbacks, trying to get each in some state of preparedness. Previously, Restic had taken heat for devoting almost all between-game time to one quarterback. Now he has Smerczynski, Lahti, and Keyte all mildly ready-though none as thoroughly as if he had devoted full time...

...tells us that God can reduce him to tears, that he can't make it by himself. But the funny thing is that however meek Dylan feels now, he still believes he's holier than we. In a very dogmatic cut, he asks, "When you going to wake up?" But he's not yelling at anyone specifically; he's yelling at all of us because we're not awake. In many ways Dylan is still the master of abuse, but this time, it's a little too pointed for everyone to just sit back and take it. After...
