Satellite trucks line the side of the Green in anticipation of the Democratic presidential debate.
At least two networks had tents set up on the Green for post-debate analysis.
This unique vehicle intended to represent the Pentagon budget (left), the education budget (center) and the world hunger and AIDs budget (right), kept circling the Green.
Before walking off the Green John Edwards was approached by someone from the campus radio station and recorded saying, "My name is John Edwards and I listen to 99 Rock."
The CNN bus got prime real estate between the Hopkins Center and the Green.
Philly.com has a capsule preview of this weekend's Penn-Dartmouth game. It mentions that the Quakers have never been 0-3 on coach Al Bagnoli's watch.
A Daily Pennsylvanian sports blogger wonders about Penn coach Al Bagnoli yanking players who make mistakes:
It’s one thing to take a guy out for a bit, but if you sub out a player every time he makes a mistake, that’s all he thinks about on the sideline.There's nothing new in this story from The New Hampshire school newspaper but the headline is a little inflammatory because the editor decided to get cute (as a writer I hated when editors did that.): "It's pretty easy beating Green"
Drew Galbraith, Dartmouth assistant AD, adds his voice to the Ivy League chorus that has problems with a push to allow some college football players to play for five years. Galbraith tells the Daily P:
"The support for this seems to exist in a couple of BCS conferences that … want two bites of the apple."Florida quarterback Connor Kempe (pronounced Kempee), who gave an oral commitment to Dartmouth last week, is analyzed on this Miami (Ohio) web page that includes the ESPN.com writeup about him. While other sites may not agree, this one says he was "offered" by Miami, Virginia, Stanford, Purdue, Iowa, Auburn, Western Michigan, Kansas State and Iowa State. Recruiting guru Max Emfinger lists Kempe as the No. 7-ranked dropback quarterback in the nation and says he was offered by Virginia and Stanford. Other stories suggest Virginia did offer him while Stanford hadn't yet. ... Kempe was seriously injured in a kiteboarding accident described in detail in this story from the Sun-Sentinel. ... To see a TV piece about the accident, including an interview with him and a few clips of him on the field, click here. The piece is headlined: "Benjamin athlete gets a second chance at life."
A Princeton freshman who won a gold medal in speed skating at the Turin Winter Olympics is ineligible to play Sprint (lightweight) football according to this story in the Princetonian. The wonder is that anyone at Princeton thought for a second that the Ivy League would rule any other way on Joey Cheek's eligibility. Don't folks around Old Nassau remember a basketball/baseball player named Chris Young?
Former Dartmouth defensive lineman Derham Cato isn't getting a lot of time with the Toronto Argonauts, but he's still getting some rubber chicken. He receives a quick mention in this story about a football banquet.
A new building planned for Old Dominion's reborn football program will feature 24 luxury boxes and a unique room for hosting potential recruits on game day. This rendition of the building planned for the ODU stadium end zone suggests it won't be confused any time soon with the graceful facility opened this fall in one of the end zones at Lafayette. Click here to take a look.
Did you know that Dartmouth played in the first game at Washington's Husky Stadium? That fact comes up in this story about the condition of the old building.
The Democratic debate has come and gone from Dartmouth. The Daily Dartmouth has a story about the circus atmosphere surrounding the event.
And finally, a certain Hanover High sophomore field hockey player got a chance to try out a Segway being used to police the crowds on the Green.
