...disagree with Lev Grossman's hesitation to call the iPhone revolutionary because "it won't create a new market or change the entertainment industry the way the iPod did." The iPod wasn't the first portable MP3 player, and iTunes wasn't the first MP3 computer jukebox program. They were simply the best. I didn't buy an MP3 player until the iPod, and I didn't use an MP3 jukebox before iTunes. Guess what? I don't own a cell phone, but as soon as I can almost afford an iPhone, I'll buy one. It isn't just...
Ball and the Busters selected Penn forward Mark Zoller with the first overall pick in league's draft. Zoller is the early frontrunner for Ivy Player of the Year, ranking in the top five in a number of categories, including points, rebounds, and field-goal percentage. Columbia forward Ben Nwachukwu is an excellent rebounder in the paint. McGrath used an early pick on graduated Harvard center Brian Cusworth and enjoyed his early contributions, but now faces a scoring void that Princeton part-timers Kyle Koncz and Marcus Schroeder and Dartmouth forward Johnathan Ball are trying to fill...
Chip and Dale is motored by its stellar guard play and talented young forwards.

They are complemented by Dartmouth sophomore Alex Barnett and Harvard second-year man Evan Harris...
...Madison, N.J. The team makes history when it captures a second consecutive national championship, pointing to its support on campus as the reason for its success. Nov. 2: After cruising through the Ivy League and drawing a number 10 seed in the NCAA tournament, NCAA Player of the Year Andre U. Akpan ’10 scores 10 goals in three games to lead the Crimson men’s soccer team to the Final Four. The squad bows out to number one seed (and eventual champion) Virginia, 2-1, in penalty kicks. The Virginia Cavaliers’ head coach...
Ohio State has its Greg Oden. Syracuse had its Carmelo Anthony. Harvard had its, um, Brian Cusworth. Not a great parallel, I’ll admit, but perhaps we should be glad that the dominant player on the Crimson men’s basketball team for the majority of this season was a four-and-a-half-year senior. Our star earned his degree in biology and earned his stripes in basketball through years of improvement. Other schools perpetually renew their stars and stalwarts and head into each season with a fresh crop of highly-touted freshmen. Duke, UNC, Arizona...
