a-reasonable, knowledgeable, that you can have a good time with.
b-i'm better that you because i went to nd .
c-last of all, fans like Irish.
they just invite abuse and can't understand why the "world's against them".

and then there's this oldie but a goodie from Irish..

on a side note, there is nothing better than being a Notre Dame fan because I know how much you guys truly do envy Notre Dame. I don't know what it is with all the ND haters, but I find it to be pretty funny. I understand how it is, if I wasn't raised a Notre Dame fan I would probably be pretty upset and envy the Irish as well, but I was just one of the lucky ones. Instead of the hate, you guys can convert over, I promise you will enjoy college football a lot more as a Notre Dame fan.

i can't imagine enjoying college football more than I already do...oh, but i AM a girl, and thus probably don't understand it all anway.

but yeah, that absolute holier than thou attitude doesn't help, does it? does a notre dame fan really believe that his team is gods team?? lol

I hate ND for the following reasons:

They dont deserve the TV contract with NBC. They could be 3-8 NBC would let keep the TV contract, while deserving teams like LSU, Texas, Florida, Auburn, and Penn State aren't on every week like they deserve to be.

Why are they still an independent? Are they afrad if they would go to the Big Ten that would no longer get thier undeserving Bullshit Championship Series bowl game. They aren't the only undeserving team for that.


I am very sure that other people will agree with those two reasons, especially if they have a clue about college football.


GIMME SOME SUGAR NITTANY LION STYLE.

i know you're supposed to give 10%, i didn't know rooting for the team was also a requirement..but i haven't been a practicing catholic in some time, so i guess i'm slipping.
