It was good to have saturday off to relax and watch the Irish beat the crap out of Navy. During the 4th quarter we noticed that the yellow ‘first down’ line drawn on the screen was actually slightly crooked, making it looks as if the line on the Irish side of the field was slanted about a yard backwards. Being the insightful person I am, I suggested that Charlie Weis’ immense ‘presence’ had actually exacted a force on the line, bending it. It was this comment that subsequently lead to my coinage of the phrase seen above.
