Yale-Harvard

One of two "big games" among usually unranked teams that are the highlights of football season for me. The other, and foremost, is Army-Navy.

I love this game because it's competitive and the players actually read books. I mean, read them well. I always root for Harvard because in high school I was one of the few teenager members of the American Association of Variable Star Observers, which is run by Harvard Observatory. However, I fell in love with Yale when I visited it for a hypertext conference in the 90s. So I guess I root for both.

Not so in Army-Navy. I was in the Army but always root for Navy. Childhood wins.
