I grew up thinking so. I thought so for eight years.

But wimps don't win presidential elections. And it looks like George Bush is going to win this one.

He was a wimp once, wasn't he? Is there some explanation for his sudden transformation into a Tough Guy?

Could George Bush be using steroids?

Is Tom Yohe destined to become Ivy League Player of the Year?

Yohe would have won the award last year if it had not been for Yale QB Kelly Ryan.

Ryan was a senior and therefore got the nod over Yohe, a junior, even though Yohe had a better year.

Last year it seemed obvious that in 1988 Yohe would become the first Crimson player to win Ivy League MVP since Jim Stoeckel in 1973.

This year Yohe is the second-rated passer in the Ivies behind Mark Johnson of Dartmouth. But he has thrown nine interceptions and just eight TD passes.

And he plays on a 1-5 team. A sure-bet has become a long shot.

Do you really meet interesting people on trains?

I thought so.

I've been on trains many times. True, I've never met any interesting people. I just assumed I was an unlucky rider. Not everyone sits next to an old woman who talks about her poodle for 300 miles. Not everyone sits next to a kid who punctuates his conversation about motorcycles with burps that smell of three-day old peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Right?

Will Coach Joe Restic win his 100th game this year?
