Although amusing, some of these posts appear to be overstating issues in favor of some narrative. If I want that, I'll just tune into tonight's debate. Otherwise, Ivy sports will go on, our student bodies will remain admirably diverse, and everyone (even hopefull, the Lions QB) will likely remain unscathed.

These are remarkably unhinged times, or at least the most extreme since 1969.

Hopefully, we can put escalating and doomsday concerns aside, at least when discussing Ivy Sports.

While waiting to tune into tonight's debate as suggested by JH, I surfed by ESPNU and its rebroadcast of the women's 1500 meter championship final.

It was so fun to see the familiar crimson "H" nestled in the pack among the bright yellow of Oregon and the other power conference jerseys.

With about 600 meters to go after a very slow pace, Ms Ramsden decided that she had waited long enough. She put down the accelerator like a NASCAR racer coming off a banked turn, pulling away from the field in dominating fashion.

There was a good battle for second place, ten meters behind Ms Ramsden, who coasted to defending her outdoor title. Brava.
