It gave me a chuckle, and these days chuckles are at a premium, so I thank you for that

It's this Saturday at noon ET on ESPNU, for those unaware. Fortunately, the two schools I really want to watch don't play until later in the day.

The doc Harvard Beats Yale 29-29 was my introduction to the rivalry, and it's a good watch for anyone interested in its history.

Malia Obama was on the Harvard side. Alas, we didn't see either of them but saw pics of Paul that somebody took. He was all alone, nobody was rushing him for an autograph.

I found out later that the Yale Bowl cannot have U.S. Presidents there because they cannot be adequately protected. In case you were wondering...
