Willingham faces challenges at ND

I was never very good at choosing schools, so maybe I shouldn’t be writing this piece. In second grade, I got in a huge fight with my best friend Matt Kamen (now one of the top swimmers in the Ivy League, by the way) about something or the other. That same day, I got accepted to Saint David’s, an elite elementary school three blocks from my house.

Wear Capes

Desperate times have come to Georgetown University.

As students everywhere return from an abbreviated end of semester break, we are confronted with difficulties both old and new. Unfortunately, the old problems? huge lines at the bookstore, Jamaican jerk pork at New South, off-campus rent payments, arduous and unsuccessful textbooks searches and the like?somehow seem worse this year than they have in previous ones.

Esherick: “We need to turn the corner.”

The Hoyas came out swinging against Rutgers University on Jan. 6, at one point holding an 18-point lead in the first half.

The hot start by the Hoyas was in stark contrast to their opening run against UCLA six days prior, when they “started off terribly” in the words of Head Coach Craig Esherick.

The Sports Sermon

It was a tough Christmas break for us here at the Sermon going home and hearing questions from our “friends” like:

“Sweetney had how many points against Virginia?”

“Did UCLA get 20 bonus points at the beginning of the game because of your ugly blue uniforms?”

“Miami just won the FOOTBALL championship, but they beat you in BASKETBALL?”

“What’s this I hear about some guy named Herve?”

Yes, the battered and bruised Hoyas lost four straight over break, including two against mid-level Big East teams and will face last year’s Big East Champion, Boston College, in Boston on Saturday.

Jordan saves world

It was an average night for Michael Jordan in an average NBA game Tuesday night against the Clippers. Jordan threw down a quiet 18 points, 10 rebounds and eight assists for the Wizards and most of the arena was thinking more about the fourth quarter heroics of the Wizards’ Popeye Jones and Chris Whitney than Jordan’s performance.
