Apparently the Michigan punter and kicker has been waiting to “play” at Notre Dame his entire career. We’re still trying to verify whether or not the guy undertstands that kickers don’t actually play football. It’s like that bonus round at the end of certain levels of Sonic the Hedgehog. Sure, it’s part of the rules, and all those extra gold rings are really useful, but it’s completely separate from the actual game.
The hysterical part is that he’s all wound up because, “despite meeting Notre Dame’s academic requirements,” he didn’t get accepted to Notre Dame. News Flash: This happens to a lot of people. What makes you so special, Ross?
Freaking kickers.
Still, I do take some concern out of this. What if he manages to get an extra .01 seconds of hang-time on his punts? What if, gulp, he kicks touchbacks into the endzone a whole 7 yards deep rather than 4? WHAT THEN!? Hold me.
New Rule: If anyone ever writes another “revenge as motivation” piece about a kicker, they will be sentenced to a lifetime of hitting from the ladies tees and drinking cosmos.

Hey Q –
Just a quick question…what do you do for a living? seriously. from what I can tell, it involves spending most of your day posting on various ND message boards and writing humorous blog entries about ND football.
Are you guys hiring?

If kickers aren’t athletes, I think you should let Biscuit go ahead and kick you square in the beanbags.

I’m not sure he could reach.
A lot of kickers are athletes. Many of them make great soccer players.

Awesome.

If you read the tags quickly, it looks like this article is about “Things That Suck Our Opponents.” Which makes since, since the article is in reference to Ann Arbor, and we all know she’s a whore.
