[NU Sports] MSU v. BC

[MHRJGScott at aol.com]

so true Paul, I have been watching the spartys at Disney all week, BC and  
their fans mostly did not show up except for the actual game, and SjT, the  
weather is great, think 81 and not humid, geez, what is not to like about  Orlando 
this week. I have passes for all the parks and although the crowds are  bad 
the scene is unbeatable. Happy new year to all!!

True  story involving the Champs Sports Bowl, which is being played right now 
on  ESPN, with Eagles ahead of Sparty 17-13 in the 3rd Quarter:

My son,  David, the future Bucknell Bison, (Early Decision can be a wonderful 
 thing.:-), and in case anyone is wondering, he had good grades, but the 
SAT's  were not up to NU's insanely high standards these days)?is watching the 
game  and tells me, "I went to (summer) camp with one of the Michigan State  
Players.? Robbie Tabachnick was a "Brant Laker" (the name of the 90-year-old  
camp, up in the Adirondacks near Lake George, NY).? Tabachnick, wearing No. 42  
and going by the name "Rob" these days, and who is a "walk-on",is actually  
playing quite well on "D" for Sparty tonight.? He and David were teammates in  the 
Color War competition that closes the camp season each year, although  
Tabachnick is 4 years older.? The competition is called "Green and Gray", and  
naturally, given where he now plays, Rob was a "Green", as was David.?  

Meanwhile, it's killing me that NU could have/should have been in this  
game--which is 3 hours from where I am vacationing in Florida--had we only  taken 
care of business against Duke and hung on against either Michigan or  Purdue, 
both winnable games.? We beat MSU, yet here we are on the outside  looking in.? 
Well, as SJT would probably put it, it gives us more incentive to  get there 
next year.? Go 'Cats in 2008!

Happy New Year to all of you on  the list.

Paul  Levinson
