The Penn State men's rugby team has the best deal coming the next week.

Two games make an opening weekend.

Usually when the term "strength of schedule" is thrown around in March, it's because of college basketball, but it's exactly what the Penn State baseball team has in mind as it goes to Texas to play in tournaments over break.

ARTS

Look. I like N'SYNC. Deal with it.

Disclaimer: Before I get started, I'd like to establish that my opinion of this movie has no bearing on my opinion of Jesus or of Christianity or even of other movies about Jesus and Christianity -- I consider Zeffirelli's Gospel-loyal Jesus of Nazareth miniseries to be one of the best in the history of television.
