Sorry this is so late. I went to the Flower Show with my mother this afternoon, and I got slammed with a cold yesterday morning that probably won't be gone until after the weekend.
If you haven't read Mike Jensen's great feature story on Bobby Convey yet, do so. It's as detailed a profile of the Northeast Philly native -- who I interviewed a couple years ago when he played for D.C. United -- as I've ever seen.
All of the numbers are through Thursday games, so Penn's loss to Cornell -- a really thrilling game, by the way -- is not included in the data.
With only a few games left to play, this is the next-to-last Crunchy Numbers of the regular season. There will be one more next week after Penn wraps up its regular season against Princeton.

Do people rush the floor at the Flower Show?
And more importantly, do you question it?
