ND wins in OVERTIME? I can’t believe it. Not only did we avenge 1996’s OT loss to Air Force, we did it with an option reverse! That’s TOTALLY a Weasel Football play (and shout out)! I like Bob’s quote about the final minutes of regulation play (when ND had to block a 28-yard field goal to force OT): “Before the kick, I was so calm, I almost passed out.” HA!

Friday Fun Time. White Cheerleader Epiphanies!” My favorite is: “Sometimes after lunch, when I go to brush and floss in the girls washroom, there are these druggie girls smoking drugs in there. I always say hi, but they never say hi back or anything. I think they must be very sad all the time. I’ll bet that if someone wrote a really good cheer for them, they would stop being such drugged-out sluts.”

Mad shout outs to Pat McDonald!

Here’s a great editorial piece about why the people protesting capital punishment at the Lieberman talk were just wrong, wrong, wrong. (Well, okay, they’re only “wrong” if they were supporting Bush. Which is what I said yesterday.)

Another freakin’ idiot wrote to the Observer to say that Bush is going to win in Indiana anyway, so everybody should vote Buchanan. People like this scare me. And do people off-campus really think that their crazy-ass letters are going to have an effect on our student body? Jeez, I hope not.

Apparently the small, 50¢ candles were a fire hazard, so they’ve been removed from the Grotto. Only the $2 ones left now…

To the Mets: It was a good run, boys. You’ll get ’em next year. Oh, and Roger Clemens: You’re still a big fat bastard. 🙂

Kel misread my “women playing sports” blurb, so I figure you might too. Basically I’m not arguing the fact that women are physically at a disadvantage when it comes to competing with men. What I am saying is that it’s not true that therefore “every man is better than every woman.” Just because I can’t compete with a college football player doesn’t mean that somewhere there’s not a tall girl (we even have one on the Irish Guard, for God’s sake!) who works out a lot who could run circles around a defensive back. What do you think? E-mail me to discuss.

ESPN asked a bunch of football players for their thoughts on women playing college football. I have to say, most of them really impressed me! A couple (like the Baylor guy) mentioned that they would have difficulty hitting a girl, but I think after she tackled them a few times she’d get over *that*. More problematic is the Purdue asshole, who seems to think that it’s impossible for a woman to compete with a man physically. He basically says that sports are split into genders for a reason, and that if there were only one football (basketball, baseball, etc.) team then women would never get to compete. WHATEVER! The teams might not be 50-50, but I think it’s ridiculous to think that no woman could possibly make the cut in a male environment. Was I the ONLY one who sat through “G.I. Jane”??
