I am a frozen popscicle




But Cornell beat arch-rival PENN today 28-27 in the closest, best game I have ever seen in MY LIFE. Cornell football has played Dartmouth and PENN continuously each year, going back so far that both are the second logest rivalries in college football (Lehigh-Lafayette is the longest). I saw them beat Dartmouth 2 weeks ago, but PENN is special. The 2 schools are very similar, big and sprawling with a million different programs, and VET schools, and my mother-in-law, Cornell 1952, stills sings nasty songs about the lack of purity and morality in PENN girls. Of course, Cornell has a beautiful campus in a beautiful little city and PENN is located in a nasty corner of Philadelphia...
