I watched the whole game, it wasn't the refs. They had no attack in the first half, and just played a dirty game in the second. They threatened more after the break, but Spurs thoroughly deserved the win.

Spurs deserved the win. Milan resorted to thuggery in the second half, it was embarrassing. I was rooting for the Anglophone team for obvious reasons, but after that two footed dive on Corluka, I got a bit more into it. Once Gattuso went head to head with a 60 year old man, I was exclaiming ****...

I have to agree with you there. Inter is struggling, regardless of their performance in the Club World Cup. Maybe it's a sign that their form is returning, but those injuries have really depleted the squad. They most likely won't win Serie A, far too much ground to make up, so they should be...

I think it's hysterical that Arsenal got Barca. One of their players said that they wanted Barca--well, here you go! My Reds are stuck in Europa, for a few more years at least.

Big Ten announces it won't pursue expansion - ESPN I thought people would find this interesting, as expansion, and exactly how far it extends, will directly impact ND's independence. This is really good if the Big Ten wants to just stay at 12, it leaves out of conference games open to create...

I would like to point out that I've had my doubts this season about Kelly. Some of those losses were hard to bear. He did get this team to play better in November than they did in September, and that is a fact, as well as a stated goal which he has achieved. While I wouldn't call 7-5 a stellar...

Notre Dame Fighting Irish's Manti Te'o named a Bednarik Award semifinalist - ESPN Chicago He's in the final 16. Focus on the bright spots...

The death of Notre Dame student Declan Sullivan points out the growing divide between the fantasy world of sports and the reality of the rest of the world - ESPN Can we write some letters to editors about this?. It's pretty bad and horrendous piece of journalism.

Today, our second friendly against the cocaine capital of the world. We drew Poland 2-2 on Saturday, and then we have our last friendly against South Africa on Nov. 17 before the Gold Cup and CONCACAF qualifying. I'm pretty hooked on it, and I can't wait for the Women's World Cup next year...

Oh it was great watching College Football Final. Mark May had his ND hat on for the Helmet Stickers segment! I haven't found the picture yet, but when I do, it's going to be my avatar for a long time. Dibs on it, right now.

His "What was I thinkin'?" segment was about ND and their defense. He talked about how good ND looked against a true freshmen, and then went on to say ND will win out and go 9-3. It all seemed incredibly disingenuous.

Motivational Psychology With Brian Kelly - Every Day Should Be Saturday Just a funny read. I agree with him getting into their asses. Maybe the lack of *** chewing is why we have been such pushovers for the last several years. I don't know when his style of coaching became out of style, but in...

Just watched the end of the LSU/Tennessee game, and there was poor clock management again which cost them the game. >30 seconds to play inside the five and they run an option outside with no timeouts left. That's fine, but then they try a formation substitute which ends up getting them <10 secs...

Well, I've waited long enough before posting my thoughts following the game, so here goes: It was absolutely embarrassing today. While I fully expected to lose this game, I thought it would be more competitive. The defense, overall, kept the offense in the game for awhile, but there are still...

Notre Dame's Jamoris Slaughter to start again after ankle injury - ESPN I'm assuming this was from the presser today, but I never watch it live. That is outstanding news in my opinion. Zeke is doing his best, but I think Slaughter is just better. Well, duh, I guess, since Slaughter was the...

This Week In Schadenfreude: Daddy, Was Notre Dame Ever Good? - SBNation.com Why did no one ever tell me that there is something this amusing every week?!?!?! For some reason, I cannot stop laughing after reading the first part about ND and the way we, the fans, reacted after the loss. The...

On The Mark: Week 2 - ESPN Well, in the Play Clock Violation thread I said how it was nice that ESPN wasn't going ballistic on ND with their usual crazy talk. Well, maybe an hour after I said that, we get this great piece of work.

Washington Huskies coach Steve Sarkisian says Reggie Bush 'looks like an idiot' - ESPN Los Angeles He said he looks like an idiot. Haha. Wow.

Absolutely hysterical. While I listened to this I've forgotten all about the loss to Michigan. Let's look forward and have a few laughs, and get ready for MSU. <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yWmXe1w6XBk?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param...

We may still have a ton of recruit rated talent, but the bottom line is that they were not properly developed since they got here, and it is going to take a lot longer than the nine months Kelly has had to develop the team adequately. It okay to not be content with a loss, but at some point, the...
