In fact, if Yale may be likened to a bunch of bananas, Brown may be likened to a huge hulking ape that eats bananas like so much candy or simply just a very large hammer that smashes bananas into mush.
Yale was crushed under the pressure and had no chance in the game despite pulling it a bit closer to end 15-6 on the heels of some comical yet ill-advised throws by Brown.

 Erasmus and the Age of Reformation - The Yale Review of Books
Johan Huizinga, the great historian of late medieval culture, was one of those rare figures in the study of ideas whose own stature and sensibility easily matched those of his scholarly subjects.
Although he lived long before the change Huizinga described, he prophesied its arrival, writing again and again of a coming “golden age” in which men would be able to help themselves out of the mire of their theological and worldly desperation.
Amidst the tempest of the Protestant Reformation, which he somehow called up in the act of observing, Erasmus saw the germ of a new kind of scholarly thought and action which had the potential to shape the very conditions of life.
