Spoiled red headed kid

Always fawned over by mostly Catholic yankee media and sports pundits and casters

One dose of reality

And an entertaining hissy fit ensues

As a southerner growing up listening to south bashing from sports comm for decades over race lecturing from people in whitelandia

I can’t say it ain’t sweet

Yes before you get going I think Alabama LSU and Georgia finally killed the anti southern bias

I still remember when the Rebels beat the high ranked Irish in 77

In Jackson

My buddies LQ and fast Freddy and charlie cage leading the way

All black and regulars at my legendary all night parties

I’m pissed Vandy didn’t make it

They actually have to get grades and their schedule much tougher

Btw Ohio state and Indiana are good teams

I watched it not bad

Any of the top ten can win on a given day over the other

One of my in-laws graduated from Notre Dame ... the year Ronald Reagan gave the graduation speech ... person is as liberal as lizzie warren ... third generation red headed Irish ... Notre Dame is entitled ... just look at that ditz President Trump selected to hold a supreme court seat ... One literally cannot fix stupid, it literally is on parade ...

Opposite end of my ‘family’ connections ... second child works in the engineering capital of the world ... and it is true what Howard Cosell is reported to have said “Sugar Bowl game between Notre Dame and Alabama, where Cosell famously announced that “at Notre Dame, football is a religion; at Alabama, it's a way of life.”

On my first trip to Huntsville, my son took me on a tour of the cliffs overlooking the city ... as we drove through, my son would point out ... there is a house divided... as two flags were planted in the front yard ...

Notre Dame football was always a big deal in SoCal because of the intense rivalry between ND and USC. You always wanted so see that matchup.

SC has fallen from its previous greatness, and busting up the Pac 8, 10, hasn’t helped keep interest alive.
