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.

New South planning underway

NEWS BY ROB ANDERSON To a campus ever pressed for space, an unused 30,000 square feet almost seems like a sin. Moving one step forward towards absolution, University officials met with an architectural firm yesterday to begin the process of redeveloping the space left vacant when the University’s main cafeteria moved from New South to the newly constructed Rev. Leo J. O’Donovan, S.J. Dining Hall.

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.

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.

Three points and a lot more

Besides showcasing the Tuna’s much-anticipated return to the House that Hoffa Built, Monday’s game and between the Giants and Cowboys brought professional kickers to the forefront of the national sports media.

My lifelong allegiance to the Giants prevents me from yet speaking publicly about the game itself with any shred of civility or reason.
