I, for one, am highly amused by what looks like a conspiracy to me – a consipiracy of the administrations of both schools to stoke the fires of their fans, that is.

If you’ve ever seen the trophy in its case in Bancroft you’d know it would be close to impossible to be stolen from there. So what do they do? It’s “moved to the football building to provide motivation for the players” (where we also could presume there would be less visibility and security) during the very week that it might be the target of a prank?

Kinda like putting the Hope Diamond in the ladies room during a Thieves Convention, don’cha think? And to top it off, it all happens on the eve of the President’s visit? When security was crawling all over campus? You gotta hand it to these organizations… Well, I guess its working – Navy is fired up to get it back and Army is fired up to keep it. Win-win!
