David Anderson: To state the obvious, my parents met at Rutgers. So without RU, there would be no me and my endless commentary. Sports are a medium where as fans we can pour a ton of energy and win or lose our actual life is the same tomorrow ... usually. The 2006 RU-Louisville game is not the best day of my life (that would have to be any day from my entire wedding week), but is absolutely the most vindicated I have ever felt. All the losses that came with being college football’s doormat, cupcake, patsy whatever term you want to use during the 1990s was temporarily erased.
