I don’t have a TV. This means I have the fortune of streaming live games on the Internet. But while the Internet is amazing, when it comes to broadcasting live events, it’s not quite there yet. The picture lags, and the image quality resembles what I assume the picture on the first color televisions ...

Eastern Conference: No. 1 Pacers vs. No. 8 Hawks Pacers in six We begin with by far the least interesting series in the playoffs. This has to be the worst series since, well, Pacers-Hawks 2013. Actually, version 2.0 is worse. The 2013 teams weren’t all that exciting, but it wasn’t their fault. ...
The softball team dropped three of its four games against Dartmouth this weekend, but in the final game of the four-game set, it beat the first-place Big Green to end a 28-game losing streak.
