So many people love to hate ND. I remember playing and no one giving us credit when we had great wins.
Seems like things haven’t changed a whole lot. I’m not saying the team this year is amazing and off the charts but when people win, instead of hating it, just give them their credit and move on.
This article is a clear sign of someone who doesn’t want to give ND it’s props for pulling off a win against a rival. I mean after all, it’s only one of the top rivalry’s in the country EVERY YEAR no matter who’s good and who’s not.
I think the reporter (Pat Forde) is clearly REALLY upset that Notre Dame won. Check out these excerpts, hahahah
- “Yet after rallying past awful San Diego State in the opener and accepting a gift-wrapped 35-17 victory Saturday from self-destructing Michigan, the Irish are 2-0. Don’t look now, folks, but they could be on their way to becoming the worst good team in recent college football history.”
- “Against that motley lineup, the highly average Irish conceivably could win enough to return to a big-time bowl game. Where they’d get crushed once again. Put it this way: This Notre Dame team bears no resemblance to the 1988 national champions who were honored here this weekend.”
I sent Pat Forde an email and told him i thought the tone of his article was “over the top” and “humorous”. haha, we’ll see if he replies to my email. If he does i might post it.
Hey friend,
How are your parents and family weathering Ike?
