Let’s Clear One Thing Up Real Quickly…

Chicago Tribune’s own Notre Dame beat writer, Brian Hamilton, doesn’t know much about the Notre Dame Football Program.
In covering the news about Tenuta joining the Irish, he said (and I urge you not to click on that link)…

What, exactly, does “assistant head coach/defense” mean — especially for Irish defensive coordinator Corwin Brown, whom Weis lauded [...]

Irish Illustrated Strikes Again

As you’ve no doubt heard, Irish Illustrated is reporting that Jon Tenuta is joining the ND Football coaching staff. I’m not going to link to them. They’ve really ticked me off. This is just another example of Irish Illustrated being unable to act with any sense of responsibility to the program that [...]

Pat Forde, Your Credibilty is Deader than Bo Schembechler

I tried telling myself, at the start of the season, that if and when things got a little dicey for Notre Dame, and the vultures started lining up to feast on the resulting carcasses like so many past office-mates with the promise of birthday cake, I would not take umbrage. I would not react. [...]

Jon Wilner of the Mercury News Should Consider A Trade School… (Edited with an angry word at the end.)

…Because this whole Journalism thing just isn’t working out.
Jon Wilner wouldn’t know a fact if it beat him within an inch of his life with a lead pipe. And as a result, he’s turned in this piece of detritus as his latest hack job. No link for Jon. The bold words are [...]

Jay Mariotti Has Heart Attack, Doesn’t Die. World Mourns.

At least one good thing almost came from the Sugar Bowl.
Thanks for the heads up, FLP.

Karma just missed him. This time.
Editor’s Note: You may have noticed that I’ve edited this post. Hey, I have a softer side. That and I don’t feel like mocking a dozen posts by people who kid themselves [...]

Pete Fiutak writes words, completes sentences, embarrasses self, family.

I think Pete Fiutak was being earnest when he wrote what I’m about to share with you. Stupid, naive, pathetic, whiny, childish, hella-lame, but earnest. So we’re gonna link to his “work” right here.
Bold = mine. Now, onto his “work”:
This is not an anti-Brady Quinn or Notre Dame-hating rant. This is a [...]
