Oh, no! Yale lost 17-7 to Columbia today. Columbia!

Yale NEVER loses to Columbia!

If they lose the Columbia game, I don't wanna see the Harvard game at the Bowl this year...yeah, I know it's just the Ivy League and they don't play the best collegiate football, no athletic scholarships and yadda, yadda, yadda.

On the brighter side, my son is a Columbia grad. But I don't think he much cares about the football team. He's a diehard Metsie, tho...

My ex-husband is a "Harvard man" so I'll get an earful at the Thanksgiving dinner my daughter hosts. But I may not even go to The Game if this is how things are going for the Bulldogs.
