  1. Does anyone like that clown? How does he keep his job. You ask anyone for the worst referees in college basketball and odds are he is one of the names they are gonna say. As bad as he is, he's still better than Valentine. Valentine is infamous in Notre Dame circles for calling a blocking foul on Colin Falls in last year's NCAA tournament loss to Winthrop after the Irish were already near midcourt and about ready to run their offensive set after an apparent defensive stop. The key moment in the game, I believe Winthrop was up 4 or 6 when it happened. He is a terrible ref. Hightower actually came and reffed a Ball State/CMU game earlier this season. I'm not sure how that happened.
  2. Just found out that ND replaced Omar Hunter (stolen from us by Urban Scum, and actually the event that pushed Florida past ND on Rivals's recruiting rankings) with a top 200 defensive end by the name of Kapron Lewis-Moore. Excellent.
  3. We all know Notre Dame's story. QB Dayne Crist, WR Michael Floyd, S Jamoris Slaughter, and a host of great commits make this class, barring any Greg Little flake-outs, the best one ND has had perhaps since Lou's heyday. Rivals.com has their class #2, just behind Urban Scum at Florida. Ball State is pulling some good commitments too. After losing Indiana's Mr. Football, QB Paul McIntosh, to Army (???), the Cardinals regrouped and pulled in a 2/3 star guy from Texas named Kelly Page who will be the heir apparent to Nate Davis. He originally committed to Oregon before the Ducks got another QB and Page decided to explore his options. Never did I think I'd see the day where we got a Pac-10 defector. The Cardinals also have pulled in a host of decent MAC-level talent. Brady Hoke may not be able to coach but he can sure recruit with the best of them.
  4. Damn I forgot I went to an Indians/Tigers game at old Cleveland Municipal when I was less than a year old, a fact I probably never would've known if not for my baby book. I always forget to factor that in.
  5. I thought it was pretty clear his ankle was bothering him too. He didn't play very well at all. Even on the final drive he made a couple of mistakes that I'm not used to seeing him make.
  6. Or against Carolina in his second for that matter. No one remembers how Brady threw a key INT when his team was about to clinch the game, which the Panthers quickly turned into a lead. /biased Panthers fan
  7. Your father's yacht is smaller than my father's house!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
  8. I'd say 2004 was fairly eventful too. Chip and Steve, Walker's Superman slide, Sammy passes (or was it ties?) Banks and then Alou wins the game on the next swing, Maddux's 300th, four 30-homer guys on one team, etc.
  9. Sounds excellent.
  10. ND wins 89-80 despite DePaul shooting 49 percent from the floor and 48 percent from three. The unbelievable Luke Harangody puts up 29 and 14. ND has now won 33 straight at home and is a solid 2nd in the Big East at 6-2.
  11. ND 46, DePaul 35 at the half. Luke Harangody has 19 and 9 already.
  12. http://www.bridgeport.edu/images/business/jnantz.jpg
  13. Ball State is now 3-17 and must win 6 of their last 11 games just to equal last year's worst season in program history. Man, I'm so happy I'm the school paper's beat writer.
  14. I watched the entire game, but spent a lot of it bitching to a friend of mine that the Cubs were going to blow their last chance to get into the divisional race and the season was over and blah blah blah. When Ramirez hit the homer, I went completely insane, and she still hasn't let me forget that I basically threw in the towel on the season before that happened.
  15. I miss him, but it's kind of cool to have somebody else have to deal with this "When's he coming back??? OMGZ" crap for once.
  16. I think I'd vote for somebody else. I've never liked McCain.
  17. I've seen the Cubs at Wrigley and Great American (07 division clincher FTW), the Reds at Great American, and the D-Backs, Brewers, Phillies and Padres at Wrigley.
  18. ND hired Georgia Tech blitz architect Jon Tenuta as assistant head coach/defense yesterday. After the destruction his guys wreaked on Irish offensive lines the last two years, I'm pumped to see what he can do with the ND front seven. Great hire.
  19. ND escapes Providence 81-74 in overtime. Friars crashed the boards like crazy and that was the reason they were in it. Thank the lord for that scrub missing 8 straight free throws at the end of the game. 31 and 14 for Luke. 32 straight at home for Notre Dame. 15-4, 5-2.
  20. I don't have the money to go, but that didn't stop me last year. I might see if I can make it.
  21. That's a php2 issue, I think Tim may have mentioned it earlier in this thread.
  22. Harangody was named midseason Top 30 candidate for the Wooden and Naismith Awards this week. Good to see him get the pub he deserves. Can't wait to see him and the Irish take on Providence tomorrow.
  23. I agree with you hawkeyecub, I watched a lot of the PU/Wisco game and they just got away with everything. I'm starting to believe that the Big Ten's 'great defense' that you always hear about is just the refs letting teams get away with everything on defense.
  24. Web sites have ND tabbed as anywhere from a 4 to a 12 seed right now. Winning their next four games (3 at home and at Seton Hall, whom they have no excuse to lose to) would go a long way towards bumping that upwards a bit.
  25. At least it's on national TV. Whose brilliant idea was that?
