I didn’t know we were playing “where in the world is Anthony Battle.” Episode 2 of The Bachelorette focused on sports, and yet the show’s only remaining athlete (sorry Mike Black) spent about five seconds on camera. Then again, maybe this is payback for Northwestern’s sporting renaissance and consequent media coverage of the last few months.
Has America had enough of Northwestern? It’s not unreasonable. After all, just look at the last six months. Northwestern won the Pinstripe Bowl. Then, after an insane season, Northwestern made the NCAA Tournament for the first time and became the biggest story in sports media circles.
