Men’s soccer yet to get on the ball

The Hoyas dropped another Big East contest Sunday, losing 2-1 to No. 8 Notre Dame at Alumni Field in South Bend, Ind. The Hoyas drop to 3-4-2 overall and 1-3-0 in the Big East.

Notre Dame was first to get on the scoreboard when senior forward Justin Detter scored on a perfect cross from fellow senior-midfielder Chad Riley and senior-midfielder Kevin Richards in the 28th minute.

Fantasy Land

This is my sixth year playing fantasy football. It’s getting out of contol. This year, I’m in four fantasy football leagues. I’m hooked, and I might need help.

For those of you unfamiliar with the term “fantasy football,” it’s time to get familiar. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be in charge of a team of superstars, or ever yearned for a new outlet to talk trash, fantasy football is for you.

Father Pat: You’ll be missed

Ask a first-year student to name a Jesuit priest at Georgetown, and “Father Pat” will most likely be their response. What’s really surprising is that he could probably name them as well. Rev. Patrick Conroy, S.J. has been well known during his years at Georgetown as a Jesuit who knows students, and the students will miss him when he leaves for Jesuit High School in Oregon in December.

My man wears a gorilla suit

VOICES BY ANNE GLIDDEN Each week, one of my favorite activities is to read the “I Saw You” section of the Washington City Paper. Admittedly, it’s a rather dorky way to celebrate the passing of yet another week, but I do enjoy ordering my overpriced Evil Empire from Uncommon Grounds and cozying up with the City Paper.

Hoyas defense a no show at Holy Cross

Georgetown continued its poor start to the 2003 football season with a 42-34 loss at Holy Cross on Saturday. The Crusaders held off a late Hoyas surge in a contest which showcased the offensive abilities of both teams.

Georgetown was led by the “big three” of senior quarterback Andrew Crawford, first-year quarterback Alondzo Turner and senior wide receiver Luke McArdle.

Fakemakers

When the football season begins anew, there are always a few tweaks that follow the first few weeks. Whether its Sunday afternoons or Tuesday nights at 9 p.m., serious tweakage needs to take place.

Kurt Warner went from the comfy confines of his starting position to the familiar surroundings of checkout lane nine.

Fear mongering is my anti-drug

Like most first-years coming to Georgetown, I had a difficult time adjusting to college life. I was nervous about making new friends and being in a different environment. I was beset by problems and self-doubt; my parents had just been brutally murdered and, worst of all, I was fat.
