Business Insider writes about the Ivy League "restrictions on full-contact football practices." Nothing really new there. If the Ivy League wanted to make a splash it has. I mean, Business Insider? Really?*
The Missoulian has a story that Dartmouth alums of a certain age will find interesting. From the lede:North Dakota political leaders are asking the NCAA to back off and let the state's flagship university keep its Fighting Sioux name and logo, even at the risk of potential blacklisting and scorn by other universities and its own conference.And this clarification . . .
About 20 schools with American Indian nicknames were targeted by an NCAA policy issued in August 2005. Some teams, like the Florida State Seminoles, were taken off the list when they received approval from namesake tribes. UND got the OK from the Spirit Lake Sioux, but were not able to get permission from the Standing Rock Sioux.

It's a sad day for Dartmouth football alums with the news that AJ's restaurant in White River Junction is closing. Long a popular feeding spot for players and their families, the restaurant run by former assistant coach Doug Johnson that featured black-
and-white photos of players from Dartmouth and local high schools on the entry wall is shutting its doors.A few years back I did a story for the local daily about what offensive linemen eat to keep their weight up and as part of the piece I asked all of them about their favorite restaurant. If even one of them said somewhere other than AJ's, I don't remember it. To be perfectly honest, the place had probably seen better days and the food was fairly middle of the road. The important thing is there was plenty of it, and rare was the day when Doug wasn't there to come out front and chat with all the players who stopped by.
