A Jugador Named Fiedler

You don't have to know Spanish to understand what this story on the Mexican NFL page is all about:

¿Qué tienen en común Jay Fiedler, Marty Domres, Richard Todd, Brian Griese, Cliff Stoud y Danny White? Y atención, no es que hayan sido malos, simplemente les tocó sustituir a jugadores que marcaron una época, fueron hito y muchos de ellos parte de la leyenda de sus equipos.

Boston.com has the story of a singer/songwriter named Kevin Connolly who just churned out his eighth album played two years weeks of football at Dartmouth.

Harvard lineman "Big Dog" Carl Ehrlich has another entry in his entertaining and informative blog series. This should get the rest of the Ivy League thinking - if not up off the couch and working out:

It would be a mistake for anyone to think that we’re fat and happy after winning the league last year. I haven’t heard a single person mention last season since Christmas and I’ve never trained with a hungrier group of people. If there is a school in the country squatting heavier than we are, they’re lying.

Colgate tailback extraordinaire Jordan Scott and a teammate were sentenced to 21 days in jail and suspended for one game for entering a dorm room and rifling a desk looking for money. How is the punishment playing among 'Gate fans? Not particularly well if this message board is representative.

Day Two of the Tommy Keane Invitational golf tournament at Hanover Country Club. The team of Scott and Mike Peters, sons of former director of athletics (and announcer of the tournament) Seaver Peters led the qualifying for match play yesterday with a 65. The Peters brothers are bidding for their seventh championship in the 33 years of the event.

I'll be out there again today posting updates throughout play and a wrapup at day's end.

(This post appeared first on the TKI blog before I noticed the mistake. Yikes!)
