A Dubious Distinction . . . Or Two

From the intro to the Ivy League's game notes package:
For the eighth time in the past 10 seasons, the Ivy League will claim the distinction of having one of its teams among the last in NCAA Division I (Football Bowl Subdivision or Football Championship Subdivision) to kick off the 2013 season.
Green Alert Take:  Ivy League football also has the "distinction" of being the only sport in the conference not to be allowed to go on to the playoffs. I'm not sure I'd be promoting either "distinction."
