In the Three Knights Game, Black chooses to break symmetry in order to avoid the often drawishFour Knights Game that would result from 3...Nf6. After tries such as 3...d6 or 3...Be7, White can play 4.d4 leaving Black with a cramped position resembling Philidor's Defense. If Black plays 3...Bc5 instead, White can use the fork trick to eliminate Black's king pawn 3...Bc5 4.Nxe5 Nxe5 5.d4 Bd6 6.dxe5 Bxe5. Tournament games have shown that this line seems to favor White, so Black usually plays 3...Bb4 or 3...g6. The game will then typically continue 3...Bb4 4.Nd5 or 3...g6 4.d4.

Knights starting third basemen Josh Fields, starting pitcher Heath Phillips and shortstop Jorge Velandia were all named to the International League All-Star team for the second time this season.
Phillips, 24, appeared in 25 games with the Knights in 2006 and started 24 of those games prior to joining Team USA on August 16.
Velandia, 31, is currently batting.293 (134-458) with 22 doubles, 10 homeruns and 54 RBIs in 118 games with the Knights in 2006.
The game, which bore little resemblance to its modern-day counterpart, was played with two teams of 25 men each under rugby-like rules, but like modern football, it was “replete with surprise, strategy, prodigies of determination, and physical prowess,” to use the words of one of the Rutgers players.
Princeton won the second game, but cries of “over-emphasis” prevented the third game in football's first year when faculties of both institutions protested on the grounds that the games were interfering with student studies.
This tradition at Rutgers dated from this first game, for one of her players, whose identity is unknown, in the sixth period started to kick the ball between his own goal posts.
