Texas: The Next 'Cuse?

In Print - March 6, 2007 | View Print Version (PDF) Ahhh, March. My favorite month of the year. Unlike January, which has been ruined by the breakdown of New Year's Day Bowl games and a revival of the extra week before the Super Bowl, March always satisfies.

Defying the Odds

Look at the Cardinals and the Colts. Our last two major sport champs.The circumstances are eerily comparable - both teams appeared dead in the water late in the regular season only to completely change their persona once the postseason began.

Hart Surgery: Master Debaters of the NFC Title Game

MICAH HART: If these playoffs have proven one thing, it's that quarterback play is more important than ever in the National Football League.

GMU beat UConn 86-84 in overtime, overcoming a nine-point halftime deficit to defeat the Huskies, a [read more...]

Hart Surgery: Insomnia

I enjoy a practical joke as much as the next guy. When I came home from a wedding back in March to find my roommates had moved the contents of my bedroom into the dining room (and vice versa), I wasn't mad. I was able to appreciate the effort put into it, and even spent the night in the kitchen.However, [read more...]

Hart Surgery: College Football Mixtape Preview

I recently bought an iPod. Perhaps that is not groundbreaking news, but since it seems like everyone else has one, I feel like I finally joined modern society.Forgive me for reporting on a trend long after it came to prominence, but the world is different when seen through the eyes (or ears, as the case may be) of an iPod.
