This nightmare never ends. ND now 0-6 at home. The service academies won the season series vs. ND. Can army complete the sweep?

Army doesnt play Notre Dame.

North Texas put up 62 (and lost!) on Navy which makes Notre Dame's loss even more embarrassing. That 10 year extension for Weiss is looking better all the time

I saw that score earlier too and I dropped my jaw... 136PTS! And there was no overtime involved. Maybe North Texas decided to duplicate the strategies Weis used: forget playing defense, remember it's only a service academy we're dealing with, muscle and image are EVERYTHING.

When was the last time Navy had more wins than ND? ND has as many wins as Duke this year and one less than Syracuse. This just gets better every week.

So much for the coaching ability of Charlie Weis, he looks lost.

Do ya think the priests in South Bend have dialed Ty Willingham yet?

[Tennis-Chris]

My niece's girls flag football team has called South Bend looking to add the Irish to their schedule next year. As of this morning they have not had a return call.

Unfortunately Ty Willingham is having his 3rd straight losing season at Washington at 3-7 with only one Pac 10 win over lowly Stanford. He is on nobody's short list for a new head coach.

Notre Dame sucks! So does Charlie Weiss!

Notre Dame has always given a coach a 5 year contract and never fired a coach before the full 5 years were up, no matter how bad the team’s record until Ty Willingham.

Charlie Weiss is completely over-rated as a coach. His first 2 years at Notre Dame the team had a decent record and went to BCS games but that was Ty Willingham's recruiting class. Now the team on the field is a class recruited by Charlie Weiss...

ND and CW both suck!

[soyizgood]

Notre Dame 28
Duke 7

Notre Dame has wins against the East and West Coast (PAC-10 and ACC). Too bad they were against the lower tiered squads (UCLA, Duke) and not the higher end ones (USC, Boston College). Had they lost to Duke, there would have been an Amber alert for Weis. That or an exorcism being conducted in South Bend with Weis as the human sacrifice.

They're in the Big East finals tomorrow against Connecticut, no??

I was referring to Notre Dame's 2-9 football squad. Their B-ball program isn't that hot either.

Yes but their women's tennis team is pretty hot.



Notre Dame's Brook Buck and junior Kelcy Tefft won the ITA national championship in doubles.

the one on the left is nice, but the one on the right has a weird face I think.

I'm not above hooking up with either one....or BOTH.

[soyizgood]

ND finished their campaign at 3-9. Wins against perennial powers UCLA, Stanford, and Duke. Oh wait this is football we're talking about....

Callahan got canned winning 5 games, while Weis takes home a cool $10 million. That's $3.3 million/victory. I wonder what NBC's ratings were with ND football...LMAO!

ND should do better next year, so there's some hope. Weis needs to really recruit defensive players and ditch their coordinators. First they couldn't score, then they couldn't stop anyone from scoring. As a USC fan, I enjoyed this a lot.

[alwaysatnet]

It couldn't happen to a nicer college program. Notre Dame's self promotion and back patting has always left me cold. Now they get what's coming to them and not even resurrecting Pat O'Brien from the grave could help them now. They have always struck me as the college equivalent of the Dallas Cowboys or N.Y. Yankees: the self proclaimed "America's Team" that America never asked for.

Charlie Weiss is a clueless loser and good luck to Notre Dame with him. B.T.W., when the Cougars get through with Ty Willingham and the Huskies no one will be phoning to get Ty back.

[J-man]

I am a fan of ND but this has been a terrible year. They've been switching head coaches for many years. I have to agree Weiss is full of ****!

They better do better next year. It's a dangerous time to be Notre Dame fan, lol.

How conveniently disregarded or "forgotten":
USC LOST AT HOME TO 'perennial powerhouse' STANFORD this year.

"Free O.J. NOW!"



alwaysatnet, about the "Yankees" as being one of the 'America's teams' that was not asked for:

"America's Team" are the Dallas Cowboys' and to a (MUCH) lesser extent, Ted Turner's Atlanta Braves; the Yanks never insisted on being referred to in a 'national' sense. Any 'geographical' reference associated with the Yankees is local not national: i.e. their "BRONX Bombers" moniker. The only thing I can think of that "America-wise" sets the Yankees apart from any other American professional sports team, is that they are the only TEAM never to have any of their PLAYER'S NAMES on their uniforms; all other teams (esp. baseball) have at one time or another despite a number of them having "seen the light" and going back to the 'old school' traditional look. And speaking of "America's Team," what of the "Terrell Owens" type of showboating???....That doesn't fly with the Yankees; that crap came and went with Reggie Jackson (and Jackson's standing-at-home-plate "act" was one that many here didn't warm up to). Manny Ramerez and Barry Bonds can stand there with their arms raised showing up the other team/opposing pitcher and be beloved by the "locals," but you will NOT see that nowadays from the "Non-America" New York Yankees. De classe' RBI clowns such as Ramerez (who looks like a mariachi band castoff, what with his 'bellbottom' pants & shiny patent-leather spikes) obviously consider 'styling' at home plate to be de rigguer---however, again, that's not the case with "The Pinstripers."

America's team? Nah. That's the Cowboys (& Ted Turner's Atlanta Braves) -- again, in both cases, a SELF-PROCLAIMED "title." Here in N.Y., we simply call 'em: The Yankees or Yanks (the papers use the "Bronx Bombers" tag) or, once in a blue moon, the Hilltoppers (their original name). Yankees as "America's team?" Nah, aren't they now referred to as "The Evil Empire" by those not-so-darling-afterall, Boston Red Sox front office schmucks? Gee, now THERE'S class for ya.

Finally, the Yankees are the team that's "publically hated" yet (silently) loved by the opposing team's owners as they note that the ticket sales suddenly double when "THE NO-NAME TEAM" comes to town.

[tzinc]

I am a huge ND fan but no way should they have fired Ty. The ONLY winning Charlies has done at ND is with Ty's ********. This is if nothing else BAD KARMA for screwing Ty.

[alwaysatnet]

I am corrected. The Atlanta Braves were self described as America's team. Not the Yankees. Belated apologies to the Yanks. And condolences to Joe Torre. He deserved a lot better.
