"You are our favorite guest"....?
Really? There's no one else?
For a parent of two ND football players, you'd think he'd have a better clue about what is going on. Not to mention, telling your sons you will not be attending their game because of some bizarre stance to disagree with the location of the game? I'm sorry, sir, this is not the way to make a stance. You go to your son's games no matter what you agree or disagree with. It isn't about you. Bringing up 12-0 vs 8-4 is ridiculously odd as well. You lost your heart and soul of the defense, and the signal caller of the offense, of course there is going to be some let down. Not to mention the amount of injuries the team suffered throughout the season and the tough schedule we faced.
These comments by Mr. Atkinson are embarrassing and baseless.
Check yourself before you wreck yourself, sir.
