Now that I’ve got the enthusiasm out of my system… This article talks about why ND still sucks. We’ve got the 106th ranked offense, people, out of only 114 teams. Perhaps that explains why we’re not ranked on the ESPN poll, even though we are on the AP one.

Oh, wasn’t it a glorious weekend in sports? Mets win, Braves lose, and ND’s back in the top 25. Hooray!
You guys. Seriously. Read this story. It made me cry and cry.
Weasel Football Update: The girls managed a 0-0 tie against BP this week to improve their record to 2-0-2 (I think). The defense remained impressive with multiple sacks and interceptions, but the offense just seemed to stall at crucial times. They’re looking into adding some new plays to shake things up. The Weasels are almost certainly guaranteed a playoff berth now, but they’ve still got one crucial game to go: the Off-Campus Crime this weekend. So, HEY, you Benedict Weasels playing on the OC team… (and YES, Erin Place, I’m looking at you). Just REMEMBER where your true loyalties are, okay? Now I’m not saying you should throw the game or anything. Just think about who you’re lining up against, okay? We all bleed purple underneath. Once a Weasel, always a Weasel… Know what I’m sayin’? 🙂
ND is looking into using a wacky new Finals Week schedule for next year. Personally I always liked the 4 day break… There was plenty of time to go skydiving, bar hopping, and road tripping. 🙂
ND is starting Matt LoVecchio, a true freshman, at quarterback versus Stanford this weekend. He sounds good, but I don’t see what all ESPN’s stats about previous freshmen starters have to do with anything. So what if the last three have won their first games – the last one was in ’87, and a helluva lot of things have happened since ’87.
So that stupid Generations campaign thing raises over $1 BILLION for the University… and Monk says we’re still gonna have budget problems in the next few years? Where the hell does all that cash go?!
It’s official. There’s nothing interesting in the Observer today.
Kelly McMahon’s Double Life: It seems that our very own little Napoleon has been holding out on us… Kelly won the Lottery! It sounds like she and her husband Dave (Whoa! Where did that come from?) will be putting that $19 million to good use. *grin*
A girl is suing Duke University because she claims she was cut from the varsity football team (she was a placekicker) because of her gender. Interesting.
