I too have read some of those posts and I read intelligent conversation turn into childish, meaningless banter coming from a once intelligent poster..... they fall to the other's level...... a.k.a. baby or child.....

You can go back to any thread (including I.E.) and see where someone will start intelligently and then someone posts something and it turns into an all-out baby-smack-talking argument....then someone (Old Man Mike) will post with wisdom, intellect, and (dare I say) aged experience and the posts that follow are all of a sudden intelligent again.... Thanks Old Man!!!!!!

So Far, no-one can do anything but play the NC game on paper - this is college football and anything can happen.

The score could be 44 - 10, 17 - 13, 3 - 6, hell, 3 - 2.. who freakin knows....

Do I want the Irish to win? YES
Can the Irish win? YES
Can the Irish lose? yes

(notice the caps for my homer-ism to the Irish)

just sayin' brother.....


GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. Don't give them the pleasure of arguing with them.... laugh and walk-away, will pi$$ them off even more!!!!!!!!

I feel better already after the chit-chat with my Irish bretheren. I've never been one to argue with people over the internets. The worst I've ever done here was call a troll a "douche" and berate a Michigan fan.

Funny note, it's the only time I've received neg reps because the Michigan fan was liked by some. The whole sig with the score-board after the last few seasons of last second losses rubbed me the wrong way.

I'm about as excited as one person can be for the 7th! Just had my families' Christmas today, and got two ND tshirts, a pair of ND sweats, and a sweet stocking cap.

I've always said that I'd take at least two days off if ND reached the NC game, and I have.
We're living the good life my friends!

I have had discussions with pure Bama fans that want to know a little about the Irish from a fans perspective. Nothing more. They were not obnoxious and thanked me for the informative conversation and wished the Irish good luck in a genuine way. Others have been obnoxious as hell and want to tell you how bad the Irish are gonna get rolled. They don't care or know anything about the Irish. I say they are SEC homers. Bama fan is willing to listen especially if he doesn't know anything about the Irish. The media have perpetuated Bama's invincibility. Until someone beats them for title they deserve that. I have read up on Bama and watched a few games. I respect them and some of their fans. The internet trolls that comment on some of the articles must be really young because they say things like the SEC has always dominated. I am guessing they are teenagers.

Don't let them get to you buddy..


I will say Bishop, Cash and a few others here have been fine.. It's the "Tide gonna win by 30, ND aint got no chance" BS you need to ignore.

Notre Dame got beat by Stanford, and should have been beaten by Pitt.

The trolls we've experienced the last month have definitely been irritating as well.

I understaND some smack talk, but this stuff is just laughable, or it was until I read it for 30 days straight. I want Notre Dame to win every single game to begin with, but I'm hoping that they curb stomp Bama. This would shut all of those SEC/Bama fans up really quick, and ending the SEC's run would be a huge feather in the cap for all of the players.

To be fair, most of the people who comment after random articles suck, regardless of program affiliation. Just go to any, and I mean any, ESPN article for confirmation. It's like the Bang Bang group gone crazy.

I think with most fanbases, there are going to be bad fans and good ones. We've had a mix of both here for most of the visiting fans on this site the entire season.

Agree. Every fanbase has their share of nut jobs and many if not most of them are the same people who spend their free time trolling people on the internet. If the mods didn't do their job this site would be unbearable just like many others.
