Happy Turkey Day Friends!

The Biscuit

I’m giving thanks this year for all of you. For stopping by, commenting here and there, roasting and/or heckling, and just generally being interested. We really appreciate it.

I’ll be signing off for a few days to enjoy the holiday with family and friends (I’m not sure if DMQ will be around). Safe travels to you and yours, eat your faces off, and we’ll see you back here next week, just in time for all the ridiculous drama that’s about to un-fold (very slowly).

In the mean time, here’s my Top 10 things I’m thankful for re: Irish Football this year. Yeah, not the easiest task in the world, but here ya go anyway.

10. We’re not Michigan (and therefore we do not suck as only they can). Thank you to everybody who made it possible.
9. USC’s decade of dominance appears to be ending. Thank you Karma. And Mark Sanchez.
8. Clausen to Floyd. Been a thing of beauty. Thank you Jimmy, thank you Michael.
7. The Duche. We haven’t been great, but at least we have some kind of oline this year. Thanks Duche.
6. Urban Meyer wanting to stay at Florida as long as they’ll have him (which we hope is forever). Thanks Universe.
5. Beer. Beer continues to be a very excellent thing. Thank you, beer brewers of the world, for making sweet, sweet beer.
4. Hawaiian Thunder, aka Manti Teo. Been a pleasure watching him mature. Hoping he sticks around and continues what he’s started. What better mission is there than healing Notre Dame football? Thanks for choosing ND Manti.
3. Golden Tate. Been just awesome having this kid on the squad. Here’s to another year. Thanks for the highlights Golden.
2. The HLS Community. At least there’s somewhere we can vent the frustration of the season with some good friends that are somewhat rationale. Thanks crew.
1. Hope. At some point things will be right again, and it will be sweet. Man, I hope it’s soon.

Go Irish.

Thank you Biscuit and DMQ for hosting this site. My wife thanks you too. She notices that after venting in the shout box, my ND defeat induced depression is decidedly less pronounced, and of a much shorter duration. She’s also glad that I don’t rant and rave to her as much about the Irish.

Happy Thanksgiving.
Go Irish.

Biscuit, Domer, I echo SDI. It does mean a lot to be able to find a place that allows us to share our frustrations and our joys with Irish Football. There have been times this year that were really hard to swallow and you guys have allowed me a place to realize that all is not so bad with the football world. I am also grateful for the flashes of brilliance that Armando has shown and I have to say that no matter how anyone rates the competition, it was fun watching the IRISH come back in the games they did. Finally, I have to say I will miss Jimmy Clausen. He may not get the legacy that he so richly deserves. In my opinion, Jimmy is all that Irish Football represents; ND Nation should be very proud of this courageous talent.

B & D thank you for the venue. It very pleasent to visit a site where most people who comment are not living vicariously through the ND FB Team.

May all have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you team for one of the most exciting years of footbal I can remember (albeit; not as successful as I would have wished.)

Thank you Charlie for working your a _ _ off recruiting some of the best offensive talent ND has ever seen and assisting the team to acheive success academically.

Thank you ND for continuing to be a family as I was raised to believe.

I like turkey. I’m going to have some more today. In fact, I’m going to eat turkey until I’m sucking morsels of meat scraplets from the carcass and making soup from the bones.

I am doing this in the forlorn hope that the media don’t do the same thing to Charlie. He deserves kudos for all the good things he’s done in his five years. It’s just a shame he couldn’t put up the same numbers on game days.

Happy Thanksgiving, HLS. Thanks for the work you guys put into this site.

Go Irish! Kick the sap out of the Tree-huggers!
