Despite the Rutgers bowl victory last night and the reigning-Super Bowl-champion Giants' spot at the top of the NFC East, New Jersey still isn't quite recognized as a sports powerhouse. Princeton, even less so. (No offense, eggheads.)

I don't know what it is about the holidays that makes you want to watch shows, movies, and performances you've already seen a bunch of times. A combination of nostalgia and tradition, I suppose. But we're all sucked in.
