Good Fridays w/Padre: Mercy

November 30, 2012 by Father Sorin

We find ourselves is a strange position, awash with unaccustomed emotions. No, this has nothing to do with being undefeated and Number 1.  That is our proper position and we should feel simple contentment for, indeed, all is right with the world.  I mean we are caught up in the unusual furor of conference-hatred.  Not belonging to one of these mutual-mediocrity-assurance societies, we have no natural animosity toward any of them.  Normally, we deride them all equally.  (Do we hate the Big 10?  ...

Irish Defeat Trojans, Punch Ticket to South Beach

November 25, 2012 by Ryan Ritter

Notre Dame simply did what it has done all season. Minimize mistakes on offense, establish their running game, and have their defense dominate. The result: a 22-13 Irish victory to cap off an undefeated 2012 regular season and a berth in the BCS title game. ...

The Idiot Box: In Which We Prove (once again) Rick Reilly’s Idiocy AND That Purdue Is Boringness

October 24, 2012 by Bayou Irish

So I can't let Rick Reilly's article go. Maybe that was part of his cunning plan: so infuriate the Irish that they go on an undefeated run which causes him enormous pleasure because that entire bit about him turning in his fan card was actually a literary deceit. But in all likelihood, he was being sincere and he was actually offended that NBC didn't tear up its contract with Notre Dame. So this season, a season in which The Irish have "returned to relevance" (those are air quotes - we've never ...

Davidson College Ranks Ahead of The Irish: GSR or a Sick Rick Reilly Fantasy?

August 23, 2012 by Bayou Irish

I can't do anything about Lo Wood's Achilles, but I can do something about the Janus Bifrons of anti-journalism that is ColinReilly a/k/a RickCowherd. Now, I don't need to go after these dopes on their lazy opinions. Twibby did that already. I'm going to go after their underlying fiction as it pertains to "student-athletics" because I refuse to throw up my hands and acquiesce to the notion that college football is just one big academic fraud (Cowherd) or that Notre Dame needs to be taken down ...

Rick Reilly is Lazy and Wrong

August 16, 2012 by Twibby

Every time Rick Reilly puts out a new piece a friend of mine and I inevitably end up spending (far too much) time complaining to each other about how Reilly, who ESPN consistently reminds us won something like 72 Sportswriter of the Year awards, has either thrown in the towel on actually trying to put out a quality product or has completely lost his journalistic abilities as he’s aged. During his prime his column was the first page I flipped to every week when I received my Sports Illustrated ...
