Rick is demanding that Stu Scott gives him credit for being the 1st to tweet about ND's potential number 1 ranking and how he predicted it all season.

This is how irrelevant Notre Dame is...

*sorry about not embedding. The ESPN share option didn't give me a choice. If someone can embed, reps are awaiting.
I don't even hate Rick Reilly anymore...he's just sad and kind of pathetic. He picked what he thought was low hanging fruit, he thought he could just bash us, kick up a bit of controversy and be safe in his opinions. What I want to know is how he gets 3,000,000 a year to do what he does?

Made the list of Sports Illustrated's "turkey of the Year" on the cover of their website right now. A list of the "fowlest" people this year in sports. Comes in at number 18, although i don't know if it is in order

Here's the specific blurb about Reilly.

Rick Reilly
The venerable scribe-turned-ESPN personality got served with a heaping helping of hot scorn after he was overheard on the air asking colleague Stuart Scott to "say that I had this first on Twitter" -- this being Steeler quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's shoulder injury in a Monday night game vs. Kansas City, which had been widely and instantly reported. Reilly's reports began after the Steelers had tweeted the news and his remark drew an immediate evil eye from Steve Young as well as an avalanche of mocking tweets and an on-air trashing by WFAN's imperious sports talk host Mike Francesa, which you can view by CLICKING HERE

's a shame they didn't mention the ND take down he wrote immediately prior to our title run. Though I've heard their upcoming article on ND isn't very flattering either, so maybe there's a reason for that.

I would love to meet him in South Bend. Would be great to watch him paint the helmets.

He's doing it for attention, the more attention he gets the better. Journalistic integrity is mostly dead, they are all shock jocks now.

He shouldn't be let anywhere near the helmets. That's a reward, not penance for being a giant tool bag.

Mr. Reilly I'm ready for your article saying you were wrong or your retraction.
