The Salad Days

Something strange has happened to me both times I have lived here in the midwest. Both times, I have begun to identify more with the teams I grew up watching. Case in point last night, as I took pleasure in USC spanking Notre Dame. I didn't care much about USC the two years I lived in CA, but now I guess it is a way to still identify with the place where I grew up.

Having watched the Ohio State-Michigan game, defeating Ohio State would seem to be a tall order. Also, I will not watch the championship game, since that night is my anniversary. But in any case, I will cheer on USC, just like I was surprised to find myself doing last night!
