...One day I'll figure out who to upload a picture. Any help PM me

Just right click and copy to your desktop. Then you can save it where you want to.

No LB has ever won the Heisman. There's always a first time and no better player/student/person to do it.

No this doesn't work at all. For instance, your signature is nothing but the address to a pic on your hard drive. No one can see the picture you want to have in there.

FML! I hate the SI cover. We are screwed now screwed

Can someone explain the SI Cover curse to me? I know about the Madden curse, but have never heard of the SI curse until now (probably a generational thing).

I thought that our curse was that when he had a player on it, we came out flat in our next game and lost.... well... our next opponent is BYE. So I think we will still manage to get out of this week undefeated.

Just click on the covers and it explains each one.

Sports Illustrated Jinx



This one has more.

Wikipedia SI Jinx

Thanks, I realized right after I posted it that I could just use the google.

Sounds like a bunch of malarkey to me. Plus the "notable instances" or whatever on wikipedia only have the SI cover working in the favor of the Irish.

My first thought when I saw this was the 125 Years "Strong and True" moment where rocket is talking about how those old ND teams called games like michigan "Sports Illustrated" games because they knew if they did well that they had a chance to be on the SI cover. I love it.

Yeah the last time ND was on the Cover was in 2006 and I think we went 10-3 that year. We just sucked horribly after.

My bad, I thought you wanted to copy it for yourself, not load to the site.

I know this has been posted before, but it is seems so relevant given what Manti has meant to this team this season and the performance he is having.

Notre Dame football: Manti Te'o fully dedicates his final season to the old college try - Chicago Tribune

And he refined his voice as a leader, ditching in-your-grill rants for more deliberate deliveries.

"Without question," Irish coach Bran Kelly said, "it's now at a point where he is imposing his own set of standards on others."

Said Te'o: "When I speak, it's different. When I speak, you feel it. You feel it going through you."

"A successful year for me will be when I run out of that tunnel for the last time, and people are crying," Te'o said. "That'll show me I made an impact on lives here. When I see that happening — when I see people standing and crying — that's when I'll know I had a successful year."
