This kills any further interest I have in CFB this year.

I will be watching and hoping O$U wipes the field with the smugness of ND and their striped scarf wearing fans.
The hate for both ND and OSU runs deep. However, the righteousness of some subway ND fans has been over the top talking shiite after the win about Franklin talking down to Freeman in the pressers and comparing PSU tackles to how Sandusky touched little boys(memes are out there) when these feckers have priests everywhere molesting altar boys. And the thank you jesus bullshiite from their QB in the interview last night. Like jesus has time to worry about how you fecking perform in a fball game you little pompus turd!!! (I am brainwashed Roman Catholic and will burn in hell I am sure, gave up the religion bs many years ago). I hope whoever they play in the national championship game crushes these pompus arrogant fake irish turd brains so their fake irish catholic fans can go back into the subway and STFU!!!! Part of me wants the Big 10 Team to win at this point so they can crush the snot out of ND but I hate OSU too. No win situation. It is football and I will watch. On to the NFL playoffs!! GO BIRDS!!!!

🤣 You sound like my wife. She went to Catholic school through 8th grade then left and wants nothing to do with it to this day. I want ND to get smashed. 90% of their fanbase probably never went there and never even set foot in South Bend.

Since CFB players have become pros due to NIL and the transfer portal, once PSU was no longer playing I could care less about the rest of the CFB games. Time to get those 3-4 hours a week spent watching Penn State play back and do something else.

This team lost worse to Ole Miss in the Peach Bowl at the end of last year than they did ot Notre Dame this year. And yet, you came back this year.
IIRC Cam Miller got lit up in the Peach Bowl last year. This year he just took a dive.

I am in agreement on this issue. I dislike Ohio State, Michigan, Iowa but hate Notre Dame and their bandwagon fanbase. Rather the Buckeyes incinerate them

As much as i can't stand OSU and UM, there is a speck of class somewhere deep inside.

Notre Dame, their smug coach, their trash mouth post game player quotes , and
especially their fans, makes me want OSU to hang 50 on them.
Yes i said OSU , i doubt Texas will win tonight.

ND piled on before and after with the ped state crap worse than any fan base ever.

Unfortunately, the PSU loss in the Orange Bowl is more entertaining than yet another total demolition of a lifeless opponent on the mat.

And is that a photo of Diddy doing what Diddy did?

Yeah same - won’t make an effort to watch the game tonight or the NC game; if I happen upon it fine. Plenty of other things to do. Not new for me - also don’t care about PSU spring ball or recruiting or whatever. No bandwidth for the same stuff year after year. Will get excited in September.

Have a trip to Ireland to plan!

Going NEXT June, share your notes and pics

Before you leave, get tickets to tour Kilmainham Jail and read/Youtube Yeats’s “Easter 1916” before you visit.

“For England may keep faith
For all that is done and said.
We know their dream; enough
To know they dreamed and are dead;
And what if excess of love
Bewildered them till they died?
I write it out in a verse-
MacDonagh and MacBride
And Connolly and Pearse
Now and in time to be,
Wherever green is worn,
Are changed, changed utterly
A terrible beauty is born.”

Will do. Will be with the kids (10, 8) so will lean into more family activities (which I hear includes the Guinness brewery). We’re meeting friends who host a big St. Patrick’s Day party at a hotel/castle so we’re doing on site falconry and golf. A local distiller will be there too with tastings. Will report back with notes!

After yet another big game loss, I'll have little to no interest in next year's season. It's apparent that this is not going to change.

you mean you won’t cheer when we pummel St. Bonaventures 77-0?

Also, @Midnighter this is at the National Library of Ireland, just north of St. Stephen’s Green. Free. Very nice and relaxing. A must see for me, of course.

Yes. And try to do a little research beforehand, well worth it.

Interesting tidbit. The Easter Rising had been planned and then cancelled at the last minute, but that cancellation was poorly communicated. One group didn’t get the news of the cancellation and went ahead with the plans. MacBride had thought that the whole thing had been called off and he’s walking by St. Steohen’s Green and sees the fighting and is all, “WTF are you doing? It’s been called off!” At that time it was too late to stop so MacBride joined the fighting, ended up being executed in Kilmainham Jail.

Where the St Patrick’s Day party will be - Glenlo Abbey in Galway. We’ll be here a few days then off to Dublin.


Nice. The Galway City Museum is superb, great for kids. I’m an O’Toole on my maternal grandmother’s side. Think of me when you go through the museum, you’ll see pictures of my Galway ancestors!

In many ways, ancestry has become like astrology, in how it's "used."

OK - it was the Penn State team of 2023 that lost to Ole Miss and the poster came back. So, it stands to reason the poster will come back in 2025 even though the Penn State team of 2024 lost to ND. As will others before him and others after him.
That loss was the reality of today's players of opting out....if we had all of our team good chance we win.
