Dartmouth snaps 17-game losing streak

"The Big Green snapped its 17-game losing streak in convincing fashion with a 28-6 win over Columbia at Memorial Field in a Homecoming matchup ... Dartmouth was hit with a 15-yard penalty for excessive celebration after the score."

The end of this mighty streak should not be celebrated; it should be mourned. Going so long without a win in the Ivy League is a singular achievement in football history. My middle school football team once scrimmaged against Brown and lost only in overtime. Your grandmother, during a bender in Morningside Heights, brawled with the defensive line of Columbia and left them bleeding.

Perhaps there will be a second coming of Jay Fiedler soon and the glory days of Dartmouth shall return.
