[Simple Calculations]

What in the world kind of posting is this. Both of these colleges have thousands of former football players roaming the streets. I understand mentioning someone who will comment on the game, but what in the world does it have to do with mark harmon? What self-respecting football fans in their right minds watch chicago hope or days of our lives? What do the careers of a bunch of machismo deficient hollywood sissies like harmon, walken, and connery have to do with the game?
