Tatum Bell off Dallas Cowboys radar; re-signs with Lions

In an interesting side comment, the tufts paper also says public masturbation in their library is an ongoing problem.  Wow.

and they didn't post my comment.  Apparently this guy can dish it out but can't take it.  I didn't write anything out of line just that clearly the guys gets all his sports knowledge from espn clips and doesn't know anything in depth about football.  He could never cut it on this here blog!

Wow, is this some obligatory piece that has to be written about sports? It must be because you clearly know little about what you are discussing. Pacman to Dallas is a rumor, just like every high profile free agent is linked to the cowboys because they are a popular team and make headlines. As for Romo being no good, again your limited knowledge on football is impressive in how limited it really is. He fumbled one snap and the media played that clip into the ground, supposedly so knee-jerk journalists like yourself can write about something and seem knowledgeable to other people with extremely limited knowledge about sports who like to make opinions.
Exceedingly sub-par article my friend

RFA's or Hamlin or TO under a new contract to free up some cap space and get Warrick Dunn signed.

Tufts is my alma mater

I actually wrote a couple articles for the Daily when I was there in the late 80s.

But I certainly can't defend this one!

For an interesting tangentially related tidbit, from Wikipedia:

The Tufts football program is one of the oldest in the country. The 1,000th game in team history was played during the 2006 season. Historians point to a Tufts versus Harvard game in 1875 as the first game of College Football between two American colleges using American football rules.

And here's an interesting Boston Globe article on the game (reg may be required).

Carzo, the former Tufts football coach, athletic director, and now AD emeritus, makes a convincing case that the first true link in US college football's evolutionary chain was forged when Tufts squared off against Harvard at 3 p.m, June 4, 1875, on what was then Jarvis Field, just a short stroll north of Harvard Square.
[...]
"This is the first game between two US colleges, playing rules as we really know football," said a polite but adamant Carzo. "From our point, it's indisputable: Tufts and Harvard played the first intercollegiate football game in America. I know some people are going to take shots at us for saying it, but that's good. That's OK."

Some argue that the first football game was played between Rutgers and Princeton in 1869, but with "50 men on the field (25 aside), its ball smaller and rounder, and its play similar to rugby" or soccer with only kicking the ball and not running it, the game "bore little resemblance to its modern-day counterpart."

The Tufts-Harvard game was the first to use 11 men on a side. "...there was an academic restriction on campus, and they only suited up 11. That's kind of an interesting way to establish 11 men on a side, isn't it? But, no problem, Harvard put out 11 and they went at it." And so it has been very since.

So despite this particular writer, Tufts has a proud place in the history of football.

Oh, and BTW, Tufts won the game.
