[Domina Nostra]

Yes

 

[Irish YJ]

Had a smoking hot gymnast babe for a GF (who was real)...
Yes

 

[GoldenDomer]

It's a Yes.

 

[kmoose]

Had a smoking hot gymnast babe for a GF (who was real)...
Yes

He was also sleeping with the enemy, while at ND.

just sayin'........

 

[Irish YJ]

He was also sleeping with the enemy, while at ND.

just sayin'........

Sacramone went to Brown, Slinger went to Miami of Ohio?? did I miss a GF, or did he have a fling with a USC QB?

 

[GATTACA!]

He was also sleeping with the enemy, while at ND.

just sayin'........

Are you thinking of his sister during the bowl game?

 

[kmoose]

Yes, to both of you. I was thinking of his sister, not him.

 

[woolybug25]

Yes, to both of you. I was thinking of his sister, not him.

Well... To your defense.... I'm sure he slayed a ton of poontang... there was probably even an enemy in there somewhere.

 

[Ultimate Penn St. Hater]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[GoldenDomer]

Legend, Hearthrob, Notre Dame Man.

And Brady was good too!

 

[Irish YJ]

For Koon..

I know I know.. wrong color

 

[GO IRISH!!!]

Anyone votes "no" on this one and my wife will personally come to their house and beat them to a bloody pulp.

 

[koonja]

Hell yes. I don't know how you could vote no.

 

[IrishSteelhead]

Hell yes. I don't know how you could vote no.

There is some ammo for the no crowd:

0-3 in bowl games, with losses of 17, 14, and 27 points

0-3 against USC, with losses of 31, 3, and 20 points

One man doesn't make the team, but BQ's resume in the big ones wasn't pretty. Regardless, GREAT player, GREAT person, GREAT leader. He had every reason to be a smarmy douchebag like another quarterback that came afterwards, but stayed humble. I vote yes.

 

[Irish Insanity]

Yes, to both of you. I was thinking of his sister, not him.

Wait, he was sleeping with his sister? I'm confused.

I have friends that are UofM fans. During his time at ND, and still to this day, they admit to a man crush for him while he played. For a rival fan that hates our team to not only tip his hat, but straight up admit he admired him, it has to be a yes.

 

[koonja]

Dunlin do you feel like explaining your no?

 

[Irish#1]

Anyone votes "no" on this one and my wife will personally come to their house and beat them to a bloody pulp.

Irish#1 give his personal approval on this one.

My wife and I are at an ND game lined up for the player walk. Brady comes by and she blurts out pretty loudly, "My God that's a handsome young man". All the women around us were laughing and agreeing. Pretty sure he heard it as well.

Wife now - lucky bastard. I was glued to the tv watching the Olympics thanks to her.
