It's Going To Be A Fun Year In South Bend
This mysterious billboard was erected in South Bend this week, just across the street from the Notre Dame campus. Oh, that's sweet of Irish fans to throw their support behind beleaguered head coach Charlie Weis like....heyyyyyy, wait a second!...
Did Lou Holtz Just Say That Notre Dame Will Play For The BCS Title?
Yes. Yes, he did. He doesn't think they are the second-best team in the country, but they have the "best chance" to run the table and face Florida for all the marbles. The infuriating part is that he's right....
Hawaii Coach Apologizes For Accusing Notre Dame Of Gayness During Dance Routine
Before last year's Hawaii Bowl, Notre Dame and Hawaii met for a pre-game banquet in which the Rainbows-turned-Warriors did the ha'a and the Fighting Irish performed a cheer, which Hawaii head coach Greg McMackin tastefully deemed "a little faggot dance."...
Japan Learns How To Lose From Notre Dame
Lou Holtz coached up the Fighting Irish and, afterward, a losing coach bemoaned a moral victory, so Saturday's college football exhibition was just like any other. Except Notre Dame won. And the game was in Japan....

Notre Dame Conveniently Forgets The Terrible Parts Of The Charlie Weis Era
Charlie Weis' detailed year-by-year biography in Fighting Irish media guides somehow fails to mention any season in which a Weis-affiliated team had a losing record. It's not a very long biography. [No Guts, No Glory]...
Sean Astin Is "Rudy." Now and Forever
Maybe you've heard of a little story called "Lord Of The Rings." He was in all three of those too, you know! Sheesh. [Journal Gazette]...
Notre Dame Desperately Wants To Beat <i>Someone</i> At Football
Lou Holtz will take a team of Notre Dame alumni to Japan to play against that country's national American football team. Does any part of the sentence make sense to anyone? [AP]...
Marquette Enjoying The Top While It Can
The Golden Eagles dispatched the suddenly terrible Fighting Irish leaving them on top of the Big East for at least a little while longer....
Notre Dame Not Aware Of The Tie Rules Either
Unlike some sports, basketball games tend to continue until there is a declared winner. Notre Dame must not have been told this, because they failed to show up for overtime last night....
Stanford Lineman Does Not Like Notre Dame
About the only thing that would make Saturday's Stanford-Notre Dame football game actually compelling is if Charlie Weis and the Stanford Tree fought at midfield with rakes and blowtorches. But knowing that would never happen (the Tree is usually soaked with alcohol and cannot be near open flame), C...
Annoying Superhuman Lawyer-To-Be Makes Life More Difficult For The Rest Of Us
This weekend, we went to a Derby Day party and a friend's 30th birthday, ate way too much food and kind of spent our Sunday afternoon on the couch watching old episodes of "Lost" and trying to recuperate. (We're still not quite there yet, and it's Tuesday.) Weekends like that are why people like Dan...
A USC Football Player Got A Low Test Score? What?
"If your Wonderlic score is lower than the age of consent in your state, you may be a redneck." I'm not all that convinced that IQ testing is all that relevant when it comes to drafting NFL quarterbacks, but I will say this: If I needed a partner to diffuse a bomb, I'd pick LSU Louisville quarterbac...

Notre Dame Fighting Irish (24-7) vs. George Mason Patriots (23-10) When: Thursday, 9:40 p.m. Where: Denver...
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
1. Thank God We Don't Need a Shirt Solidarity Day. It is no secret that last fall Notre Dame football was pretty dismal. After an 0-3 start, I received the following email from Student Government:...
Everybody Keep Piling On Notre Dame!
As we come to the final death spasms of the glory/hideousness of the Notre Dame season, we stop to do a brief dance on the Irish grave. How bad has it become? Freaking Duke thinks it has a chance to win in South Bend this weekend....
