You’ve probably had a lot of fresh experience comparing seasons, given that this is Rochester and we’ve had all of them these past few weeks. We’re in an area that knows pretty much the entire repertoire of weather available on Earth, and one that loves to show its range. Hot as hell, cold as Viking […]

It’s the fall of my senior year, which means between classes and trips to Starbucks, a bigger question is always on my mind: Where will I be when I grow up? I’ve put on my suit, tweaked my resume, and even started networking with graduate schools and other programs. But among all of my anxiety […]

  I’m not a big fan of dogs – I guess I have a form of cynophobia – but I respect dog owners and the reason why they have dogs. It’s the bond between an animal and a human that can’t really be compared to the bond between two humans. Be honest, you’re more likely […]

This is a wonderful time on the baseball calendar. Until Feb. 14 (when pitchers and catchers report), we get to hear about how this player dropped 20 pounds and this player put on 20 pounds in all the right places and how this guy added a cutter and this guy is recommitting himself to plate […]

On Monday, November 10, Mark Sanchez threw for over 300 yards and two touchdowns. In 2014. For the Philadelphia Eagles. What? It was an odd sight, and for good reason – Mark Sanchez was the joke of sports for an inordinately long time. We’ll do a quick run-through: the shirtless posing, the head scratching interceptions, […]

After two consecutive wins, the UR Men’s soccer team earned a bid to compete in the NCAA Division III Championship for the third consecutive year. The first win came on Sunday, Nov. 2, at an away match against Carnegie Mellon. In this game, the YellowJackets outscored the Tartans 2-1 in a come-from-behind victory. Coming into […]
