Dear Saluki Players

[IrishofNDMan]

I'm sorry I focus on more than one sport Dahoss.

College Hockey has like 10 fans

If you can't talk sports dahoss, go back to horse racing, it seems like the only thing you know. I've talked about all ND athletics yes, but I have placed it in the Sports Bar side and you come to read. Without people talking about their teams, what would this side be made of. I guess when ND loses (such as SIU) I should come on here and give my congratulations to the team so that I don't have to take sh1t for talking about them before the game, apparently that works.

Just be realistic.

I'm being realistic. SIU did play a good game tonight, I'm not doubting that. ND got upset in the 1st round, I'm obviously not doubting that. I'm saying, it's all about the draw, and when I saw ND was playing Winthrop I knew how dangerous they were. Now if I would have saw Holy Cross, I would have laughed as they moved on to the second round. You want to know why there are ND fans that argue as much as me, because of the millions and millions of ND haters like you!

I have been the biggest ND fan since I can remember. I love the movie Rudy, call me a Rudy all you want.I have been to numerious ND football and basketball games, and even a few hockey and baseball. I haven't missed watching a ND football game since I was 7. Everything about ND is special to me, but if your not a fan you can't understand it. Nothing can compare to the tradition of Notre Dame, I don't need to argue my point anymore.

you guys get on me and attack me about ND and are just like all the ND haters across the world, but I feel bad for you guys that you don't have a team with so much tradition to cheer for. I was just pointing out how much the feeling you get going to an ND game and walking around on the campus gives you compared to any other college. I've been to a lot of campuses, none compare to ND . That is my only point.

every program has down years, the good programs recover and rebuild, which is what ND is doing right now. Next year is no National Championship year in football as they are young, but in the next 2-6 years ND will have 3 National Championships. I guarentee Jimmy Claussen gets one for the irish.

academic standards have allowed other schools to catch up with ND in football. That's alright to me, cause do I want them to change their standards, NO! That is another reason ND is what it is, they don't let bums like Randy Moss in, instead those thugs need to go to USC, Florida State, and Miami. Academic standards suck when it comes to sports (cause most of these athletes are dumb as a box of rocks), but its what makes going to ND and playing football for them what it is.

I dont hate Notre Dame I think its a great school.
But ND best stay out of football conference play, they just dont get it done anymore. History and trends change. This school has continued its high academic standards, but football... bad now. Sorry but tell it like it is. Last National Championship was when....?
