Yalie's Answer back

Greetings from Penn State, where it is an absolutely gorgeous day.

A couple of rightfully irate Yale football players offer a response to yesterday's column in the Yale Daily. By all means do check out this well thought out and well-reasoned column. An excerpt:

In order to improve the state of Yale’s athletics and its perception by non-athletes, Yale should approve post-season play for ALL sports, including football, and a conference tournament for basketball; second, it should eliminate the eight-semester rule that forces injured athletes to withdraw from the Yale community to retain their rightful eligibility; thirdly, someone needs to invite Ned Fulmer to a Yale Varsity Parents’ Tailgate, a Student-Athlete Community Outreach Event or an Alumni-Athlete Career Night so he can appreciate the diverse backgrounds of Yale athletes, who hail from every corner of the globe, inhabit every tax bracket, embrace every major and go on to achieve greatness in the name of Yale.

Now back to my regularly scheduled vacation ;-)
