I think this is more fitting:

I wish I could bleed Schrute into the atom bomb cloud, that'd be perfect.

 

[Irish Insanity]

I'm fully prepared to get raped by Michigan. After all, it is what they do. With that being said, why are all t he experts picking against us. They are the ones that have us ranked 15th and UofM ranked 30th. I really don't understand that because, well, Fůck Michigan.

If this game is decided with a good amount of time left on the clock, it's going to get VERY chippy. This is where an alpha like Niklas leading the charge would have been worth it's weight in gold.

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe it's just because it's the popular thing to do. We have no choice but to embrace the hate! Michigan being ranked 30th seems a little off...but it's fun to see.

Who the He!l cares what anyone else thinks at this time of the season?? Notre Dame is back, and everyone including ESPN knows it, but everyone is wondering just HOW FAR back are we?

Nothing about that skepticism, or even smirking wiseassism, is going to change until we ram it down the big boys' throats, several seasons in a row.

The ground is plowed for this. ESPN just figured out that Coach is the third winningest active coach in the NCAA. Keeping Kelly will blunt commentators' abilities to derisively wave us off --- BUT we must beat the Big Boys regularly.

We are all set to leave Michigan behind [just as we had to GODFORBID leave NAVY behind after Kelly came.] If Dantonio doesn't keep the double-digit wins going, people will think that ND and OSU are the only real powers in the North.

We've earned more credit than we're getting [because of economics, class hatred, and general assholism] but we haven't yet earned as much as many commentators on IE think we should. We haven't earned the automatic inclusion into the elite inner club of 8-to-10 football teams --- but we're going to --- but not yet this year even if we win 10+. It's going to take one year beyond that to make it embarrassing for even an SEC ESPN clown to mock ND.

Let's just ignore the goons and hope that what SHOULD happen, on both talent and schematic grounds, [i.e. Beat Michigan] happens. We're better than these guys. Unfortunately, they're pretty good also --- but Lord Almighty every subtle early sign says that we're better at almost everything. This will be close because they'll fight like deranged bandicoots, and make us work... but all we really need to do is have our studs be relaxed and execute our game. Golson, NMart, Lombard, Koyack, Riggs, Smith, Day, need to look at those winged helmets and smile.


... I wouldn't be surprised if we had 14-15 guys of our 22 starters who would start for them, and almost none of theirs significantly better than our guy at the same spot. We just have to play ball.

Already preparing a locked from the outside, padded cell for Saturday night if ND loses. My blood is f-ucking boiling and the game hasn't even been played yet.

SCORCHED EARTH is the only way to describe what may happen with a loss.

This pretty much sums up how I feel.

 

[Fbolt]

Will ND wear the green?

 

[Rudy89]

I gotta work a double shift Sunday but if we do lose I will get drunk and my next day off I will immerse myself into the office, Big Bang theory, South Park, Dragonball Z, and Batman: the animated series. My diet will be thrown out the window, and i may take the week off from the gym. Basically I will watch what I normally watch only in a state of major depression with no get up and go for anything.

All of those shows, save The Office, sound like absolute torture. I guess it's fitting for a depression but f*ck me, that's some serious self-hatred in that line-up.

What? Were they banged up? Or just 'they are coming along and may be ready to contribute'??

The latter.

 

[irishog77]

I've got some disposable income... if someone would promise to just go around fighting people and wrecking tailgates, I'd fly them in for sure. 100% serious, no italics.

I'd want video proof though of the wreckage.

I'm your huckleberry.

Start looking at flights from Nashville to Chicago/South Bend.

I’ll start by stating everyone deals differently when they care so much for something they have no control over:

I used to think like this, for years every objective bone in my body told me ND was the better team going in... and every year ND would outplay Michigan, make one or two critical mistakes to let them hang around, and then get their hearts ripped out....
now?

I'm just kind of preparing for the inevitable heartbreak… I did this last year, and it hurt far less.

 

[ACamp1900]

Dear gawd, is that dude in the middle rocking a sox hat??... a Skunkbear/foston fan??? That is like 'a thing'?? Hard to imagine the complex.

 

[no.1IrishFan]

As soon as there's a vbook on this game, I'm laying down everything I have on scUM to win.

I've always wondered what it would be like to blow 2 billion dollars on a B I T C H!

 

[Fbolt]

Kelly, from what I've seen, is not known for his energetic, motivational speeches. Coach needs to dig into the well this week.

Seems to me Hoke is whipping his boys into a frenzy. ND needs to meet emotional fire with a blowtorch.

To relive the chicken dance and the smack talk from the northern cesspool known as Mich*F@ck!i#$gan this past week is an ass-chapper for sure.

The turn to that is if UM is all worked up and gets hit in the mouth early.............. I never coached D1 cfb, by I have played and coached enough to know a head coach can certainly hype and build up a single game too much.

Acamp I think finally I found an Irish fan like me! I actually have a bunch of non sports fans coming over that day I will have the game on in one room and video games in The other that way if things go bad I can still be distracted with a good time with my wife and our geeky friends we don't get to see that often so I have all my bases covered. If we win I will be come a glorious bundle of joy and annoy all my co workers tomorrow with constant whistling of rakes of mallow and damsha bua. I hope I can annoy my coworkers

 

[no.1IrishFan]

The closer it gets to Saturday, the more and more restless I become.
I mean, it's starting to worry me how often I find myself thinking about this game in my day to day.
It's always on my mind.

I need this win.

FACK MICHIGAN!

I'm not ruling that out from happening. Fun fact me and the wife got engaged the day of the 2011 game....the only positive that came out of that day

If the Irish lose, I may burn the state of Texas to the ground.

I have half a can of lighter fluid I could donate should you need donations.



That's a lot of ground to cover.
