21.11.03
A quick correction, which I probably should have noted the last time I did one of these: The Trilateral Commission is based in Tokyo, Washington and Paris. In the letter I wrote, when dissecting other letters (this in response to some nitwit who said that America attacked Iraq unilaterally - not counting the UK). In my letter, I should have mentioned one of the three (probably would have mentioned Paris, simply because of the fact that, like the Swiss, it is in Europe) rather than Zurich.
Guess TCU isn't the 2nd best team in the land. They will end up being the 2nd best team in Conference USA (if I read the records right, Southern Miss clinched because the worst it can do is tie TCU, and it has head to head). Maybe playing a slightly tougher non-conference schedule (Cal and Nebraska, as opposed to Navy and - next week - Southern Methodist) helped USM prepare for conference play. Probably the home field advantage helped too. But turnovers were the deciding factor. TCU rolled up something like 150 more yards of offense than did USM. But they also turned the ball over 3 or 4 more times than USM did. And so they lost.
Really gone this time; almost certainly won't be back until Sunday to analyse the college games.
