    Not sure I follow the premise here. I'm an old millennial. I grew up watching Jordan, Jackson, and Sanders. Also had Tiger Woods, Tom Brady, Kobe, Lebron, Ken Griffey Junior, Gretzky, and on and on. I feel like the list is very long of players who are considered either the GOAT or are at...

    Like/Hate

    If I wasn't a ND fan, I'd be a fan of Texas, Clemson, Georgia, or Florida. At various points of my childhood, I was enamored with those programs at one time or another. I feel that way about a handful of baseball teams too. Teams I will never cheer for: Michigan, Purdue, Penn State, Ohio...

    Lol right?! Seems like we paid extra for all the special treatment. But it was just random happenstance.

    Disney/Universal Studios vacations

    Just got back. No hurricanes. Check. Arguably the best time ever at WDW. Check. We had some legit "Disney Magic" on this trip: - Concierge room upgrade to Royal Rooms at PO Riverside; along with a gift bag for the kids that included character pins, snacks, luggage tags, and a personalized...

    Purdue Postgame

    I didn't have a chance to watch the whole game yet. Just saw bits and pieces on my phone. Did hear rumblings about MF being really aggravated on the sidelines about the defense. When in the game was this? Was he pissed at Ash? or the players?

    Chicago Bears address

    Bears have a culture problem. I've been saying it for years. It's a top-down problem. Wake me up when that changes.

    Michael Fredrick Denbrock Hired as Offensive Coordinator (2023)

    If ND played their aggressive style on D and didn't abandon Love/Price, I put odds on ND winning at almost 100%. Credit to Miami for playing better, but it took +2 TO, a miracle catch for a TD, and an average kicker making two clutch FGs to beat ND, who clearly didn't play well and who's...

    Miami Postgame Thread

    This was my take even in real time. That ball is an INT 99.9% of the time. WR just made a big time play. End of story. If Shuler goes for the hit and the ball is overthrown, people would be ripping him for not playing the ball and getting the easy INT.

    Miami Postgame Thread

    I always need to sleep on a loss for a few days. My fandom allows for mega hyperbole and overreaction whenever ND loses. In my old age, I've learned to take a breath, sleep on it, wait for some reports/pods to come out and then see where I fall. I think my biggest take away from the game...

    Aug 31 | Miami

    Josh Pate puts out a 10 min segment where he spends the first 8 minutes talking about ND's strengths and then the last 2 where he gives one edge to Miami....one...and says that's the difference and picks The U to win. I honestly used to like this guy. The easiest take on this game is the...

    That price is labor and storage. Most charge you a lease agreement or have you flat out buy the lights up front, which that cost will vary depending on size of the house and customization requested. You'd be shocked at the demand for this sort of custom setup in certain areas. Depends on...

    Add Christmas light installation and storage to that list. The market for this has exploded in recent years. I have a friend who does about 20 houses in one neighborhood alone. His pricing is considered cheap at $500/house for single level, depending on number of lights. I've noticed the...

    If it wasn't for the fact that ND is excelling in this modern environment, I'd be completely done with college sports after hearing this news. How can a team be proven to have cheated on the field not get a harsher punishment. What are we even doing here?! This decision just set a precedent...

    '18 SC QB Sam Hartman (Notre Dame Transfer)

    Every time I want to rag on Sam, I remember the situation he got dealt with Rees leaving, a huge down grade in receivers, and Porker getting the OC gig. What a mess.

    Everything Golf

    LOL. Ironically, this actually happened to me last fall. I hooked a drive into some trees on a blind dog leg. Course is setup so that even shots in the trees can still be found and played. I looked everywhere for that ball. Then I randomly saw one in the fairway about 50 yards further than...

    Sports cards

    Tough hobby to crack into. I learned the hard way. I had a ton of cards I sent for grading. Didn't know what I was doing. Thought I'd get decent grades on them, list on ebay, make money, repeat. I ended up getting a bunch of crap grades and sold like three raw cards. If you have the time...

    Michael Fredrick Denbrock Hired as Offensive Coordinator (2023)

    Correct. There was a healthy amount of skepticism and rightfully so. The biggest benefit that everyone seemed to rally around was his head coaching experience and how that could help benefit Freeman as he learned the ropes as a first-time HC. Fast forward and Golden proved to be the best DC...
