Games should continue despite attack

In spite of the terrible attack on our country, I would hope that the Big Ten chooses to continue on with the Notre Dame/ Purdue game this Saturday. Rather than disrupting our normal activities, we need to show the people of the world that we have been brought together by this monstrous act.

As such, I would like to suggest that Purdue fans and Notre Dame fans alike come to the game not dressed in black, gold, or green ... but wearing the red, white and blue of our country. Let's show these craven individuals that we are undaunted by their acts and sing the national anthem louder than anyone has ever heard in Ross-Ade Stadium.
