The most BC things this week

Midterm season may be dragging on longer than last year’s winter, but classic BC life is still alive and well here on the Heights. So for those of you hiding out in the O’Neill booths, we’ve been keeping tabs on what’s happening on and off campus. From Baldwin’s CMA experience to the weird shit going on at Harvard and BU, we’ve got you covered.

Here goes.

Perhaps the Eagles’ best conversion of the season…

The cheer team’s newest member Brian Gaillardetz didn’t use to think cheer was a legitimate sport. Then this happened.

I was working out at the Plex and I was “unintentionally” watching the cheer team practice for too long, and the coach caught me.  I returned to my workout, but Coach Alisa sent over two of the freshman girls who said she wanted to talk to me. When I got over to the practice I was asked if had ever considered cheer. I laughed. “Not even a little bit.” That night I ended up learning how to toss, and I actually had a lot of fun, leading me to return the next week and join the team.

Go Brian.

We got a shoutout from sophomore blog Chestnut Trill

Apparently, we are now engaged in a “full blown war.” It makes us wonder: is it because we didn’t reply to your text?

We replaced the contact name so Julius (who writes under a pseudonym) can maintain the Roman dictator persona

He’s referring to this Tab article about Rubinoff. Chestnut Trill, you do you. And thank you for continually providing valuable insights to the BC community. Until you blogged about it, I had no idea that BC bros go the Plex and wear Patagonia. #menandwomenforothers

Our overall football record is now 3-7

We lost to NC State 8-24. The small crowd that hung on until the end of the game stormed the field, but everyone else bailed. Right now, Addazio might be feeling like people used to call him on his cell phone.

BC manners on fleek, as usual

Another Eagle Yakked from Newton:

When you hold the door for the person right behind you but they can’t be bothered to take it so you either have to stop walking and keep holding it or let it hit them in the face <<<<

Eight up-votes. The agonies of etiquette on the Heights.

Is fall weather too much to ask?

We just want to wear our Tory Burch boots…

We got the Apple exec who doesn’t wear turtlenecks

BC grad Phil Schiller on stage in biz cas, true to Fulton style.

The beautiful winter mornings have started…

We actually go here!

Baldwin was at the CMAs…

Baldwin danced with Brad Paisley. After the show, we asked Baldwin about it, and he was like:

Like sure, the BYU cougar can do a standing backflip, but can he ‘drop down and get your eagle on’ as well as I can? Absolutely not.

And some stuff happened down Comm Ave. Like this outfit at Harvard…

Harvard is gearing up for its annual Sex Week. We’re all weirded out, but it’s probably not their fault. In junior high they were taking abstract math instead of sex ed.

And vermin at BU…

Meanwhile, BU’s dorms have been infested by rats. Not that surprised – physics has already told us that ‘like attracts like.’
Till next week.
