You tell me, genius. You didn't even know that 17 of 22 starters were Jrs & Srs. Typical dumbass bandwagon jumping nd fan. Next time you should jump on the bandwagon of a team that isn't a pathetic joke.

You can probably go get some LSU gear at Scheels...

Notre Dame had 7 kids in the darft. They had 11 total that were worth draft consideration.

Something doesn't feel right. I'm keeping score of a catfight, instead of being one of the participants. I feel queasy.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh....egami, you suck. Dman, you drink Kool Aid. Florida Joe, you're dumb. Reideen, you play with toys. Dukester, you're Dukester (ouch!!!). Logan, you like watching little boys handle each other.

There, much better. Carry on....

After acknowledging that he was desperate, Dwight said "people will resort to saying things they know aren't true when they are desperate." That about sums it up!

it's a matter of fact that i'm not so obsessed to know the exact number of returning starters etc. i reserve that for sker fans who have nothing better to do with their lives than stalk college football players. just generally knowing it's a young/inexperienced team is enough for me.

Yeah, that ND vs Michigan game will be fun to watch. At least in NU's case, if they do lose, at least it is to a quality team, #1 team at that.....can the domers say the same? Front Butt is gonna look funny on camera all day with that just Sh!t on look.




Sounds like this has all the makings of an "Excuse Train" post to me!

This week could spell victory for Notre Dame as Michigan looks as if the wheels have fallen off the wagon!

At least our wagon has scored an offensive TD.

The ND wagon apparently left before someone considered putting wheels on.

Chances are, a 17-year-old football star thinks the Four Horsemen are a nerd band from the 1950s. He assumes the Gipper is a pro wrestler, never has heard the voice of Lindsey Nelson and may have noticed Rudy" in a back bin at Blockbuster. In his world, Notre Dame is the team with gold helmets that plays Saturdays on NBC but never seems to make anyone happy.

All of which is revealing when assessing the Fighting Irish and their teetering place in 21st-century life. The ND mystique -- a heavenly idea that a plot of grass beneath Touchdown Jesus' gaze is the most special place on our sporting earth -- has faded into an ambiguous haze the last decade. In the ever-evolving landscape of college football, this program is on no higher footing right now than Northern Illinois.

Cornhuskers the winningest college football program of the last 50 years, both by winning percentage and number of wins.

notre dame may suck this year but when was the last time nebraska had a network clammering to pay them to televise all of their home games? i'm trying to think of a tradition at memorial stadium, let's see, oh yes, texas singing their fight song in the south end zone every time they play there. i wonder how many sker fans will be left to applaud usc as they leave the field victorious? i have a feeling the death march will be over by then.

You actually pose a very good question, Logan, but you're the one that should probably answer it. You're the most qualified. Since ND hasn't won any games this year, and might not for a while, how exactly DOES it feel when the opposition leaves the field victorious, by double digits, against your team? This is a subject I trust your judgment on. You'll be an expert by the end of the year.

And in case we end up in a bowl game we're expected to lose, can you let us know how that feels too? Again, ND is the undisputed king of ineptitude in bowl games, so any pointers?

I'm indifferent about ND, but when one of their fans talks trash -- when the team is laughably bad, and historically pathetic in bowl games --- it's time to put said fan in his place. Just stop.

Arrogance is the hallmark of Notre Dame. One can find Notre Dame's arrogant attitude by listening to their fans claim title after title, even though one can reasonably claim they were the best team in 3 years. Or their administrators, who claim that Notre Dame doesn't redshirt players, and coincidentally only ever offer students who happen to accept their offers. After all, nobody would ever reject a scholarship at Notre Dame.

Poor Logan this has be the low point, Rockne bottom, a time for all those arrogant men who run Notre Dame football to hang their heads and realize they aren't special anymore. They fired Tyrone Willingham for the expressed purpose of hiring Urban Meyer, who viewed the Golden Dome as his "dream job" and went so far to place a Notre Dame out clause in his Utah contract.

Then, of course, he snubbed them and signed with Florida

No conferenced team, for what should be relatively obvious reasons, will have a network clammering to get their games.
