There were no flags on the field on Dec. 19, when I watched haplessly from my couch as Desean Jackson sliced through bumbling New York Giants defenders en route to a game-winning, kick-to-the-groin touchdown as time expired in the fourth quarter. The Giants' unbelievable choke-fest against the Philadelphia Eagles set the stage for yet another historic end-of-the-year collapse, in which they went from a first place, mortal lock Superbowl contender to a pitiful gang of stooges seemingly hell-bent on fulfilling Murphy's Law.
Over the weekend I sat down with Gediminas Bertasius '14, who was recently named Ivy League Rookie of the Week, and talked about the Big Green men's basketball team's evolution and his own transition to America from his native country of Lithuania.
