This being scoring a 3-point basket in every game since the 3-point shot was enacted (a twenty-year stretch).

(Hopefully) good sports essays and observations for good sports by a guy who tries (and can sometimes fail) to be a good sport.

We knew you'd find some way to get us all to the Princeton B-Ball website.
Nice first Tiger boosteristic move first of the season to come. Now if only dull ol Bill would run for President....
The Princeton B-ball website is quite good. Not sure that Princeton b-ball will be as good for a few years, but it seems that the Tigers are headed in the right direction.
Let's not diss dull 'ol Bill totally, even if he managed to lose in a series of primaries to Al Gore in 2000. Bill Bradley is dignified and principled, which is perhaps why he now finds himself out of politics.
Eloquent defense of the fuddy-duddy world.
Bill was politically aloof and rhetorically challenged. His political vision never matched his peripheral savvy on a b-ball court.
May the Princeton website remain better than the B-ball team.
Ah, you're a Penn fan, then?
Bill wasn't a game show host like some popular politicians today are, and while he sound embalmed he at least didn't look it (like the current Nobel Prize winner). I disagree on the political vision -- he has it, but he can't articulate it.
As for Princeton hoops, well, I can't agree with you there. The website is quite good, and it will get a team most worthy of it -- in several years.
It's hard to embalm jowls, and it's not necessary to embalm aloofness and unwillingness to really converse with people.
As for the Princeton basketball team: One doesn't need to be a Penn fan to find the legacy all a bit romantically overblown and self-enamored of the trappings of empire as a means to assert a fuller social domination than access and academia alone can convey.
The problem now though is that JTIII will now get a lion's share of the better players (athletically and academically) who heretofore might have gone to Princeton or Penn, and maybe even Duke.
He seems to be the real carrier of the tradition to a higher and more engaged level.
The glories of the website may not take the sting out of rumbling for domination of the lower and mid-Ivies in the near and possibly longer term.
So go Big Red, Red and Blue, powder Blue, Old Blue, Brown and Big Green... relative parity is fun.
PS: oops...even Harvard too.
