Boston College–Holy Cross Football Rivalry
The Boston College–Holy Cross football rivalry is an American college football rivalry between the Boston College Eagles and Holy Cross Crusaders. Though the rivalry has been largely dormant since the 1980s, it was once contested annually as a season-ending game that "determined the best team in New England", as one player recalled. As of 2018, even after not playing each other for more than 30 years, each school was still the other's all-time most-played football opponent. The two teams have met 83 times; Boston College leads the series 49–31–3. They last played in 2018, after a 32-year hiatus, and were scheduled to meet again in 2020, but the meeting was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2012, Wally Carew wrote a book about the rivalry, "A Farewell to Glory: The Rise and Fall of an Epic Football Rivalry". History In 1896, Holy Cross and Boston College played the first football game between the two schools, starting one of the most storied rivalries in c ...

The 1944 NYU Violets football team was an American football team that represented New York University as an independent during the 1944 college football season. In their first season under head coach John J. Weinheimer, the Violets compiled a 2–5 record and were outscored 160–71. The Violets took the field in October 1944 after a two-year absence from the gridiron. NYU officials said they had dropped the sport because of a dip in enrollment during World War II and because the most recent two seasons, 1940 and 1941, had lost $65,000. Students successfully petitioned to bring back the sport. Not all aspects of the prewar program were restored: head coach Mal Stevens was no longer under contract, and was serving in the Navy Medical Corps. His replacement was John "Jacko" Weinheimer, a 1920s Violets football captain. The schedule no longer featured matchups at Yankee Stadium with big-name programs from across the United States. Instead, NYU faced only smaller colleges in ...

Newspapers
A newspaper is a periodical publication containing written information about current events and is often typed in black ink with a white or gray background. Newspapers can cover a wide variety of fields such as politics, business, sports and art, and often include materials such as opinion columns, weather forecasts, reviews of local services, obituaries, birth notices, crosswords, editorial cartoons, comic strips, and advice columns.

The journalism organizations that publish newspapers are themselves often metonymically called newspapers. Newspapers have traditionally been published in print (usually on cheap, low-grade paper called newsprint). However, today most newspapers are also published on websites as online newspapers, and some have even abandoned their print versions entirely. Newspapers developed in the 17th ...
