Even though my Dad's family are big domers so do I. I was leaving the game under pretty decent control but I sort of lost it, for some reason, when the refs and replay booth chicken-shi**ed us on the garbage TD at the end of the game. It was like rubbing salt into the wound. Any ND fan that told me "good game" didn't get a friendly response.
And there stupid fans all over the country that have no connection to the place, know nothing about it or football, but want to glom on to them because they are old and fancy, like some kinda American royalty. "Oh honey, you look great in that ND letter jacket. Just the thing to wear to brunch at Hoity-Nouveau Coffee House. Can we put the top down on the Beemer today? I got these great sunglasses at Saks. Stop, my botox is still sore, I just got my hair done, and my nails are tacky."
EXACTLY! On an unrelated note, I hope someone else is doing the Coaching Changes thread this year. I can't keep up with it all anymore. My main sources for info were: http://footballscoop.com/the-scoop and http://www.collegefootballpoll.com/coaching_changes.html Later!
Im rooting for a freak Hurricane or Snowstorm to settle across the Orange bowl long enough to just cancel the game but not injure or inconvenience anyone.
domer=the Anti-Christ, or some sort of biblical plague, at least. Like the new York Yankees and Green Bay Packers.
GO, ya heah! Rolllll up hard on them domer, with your big elephant ears, and smother out all their football bragging and exuberance.
I hope Bama stomps a mudhole in the domers! On my list of hatred the domers are exceeded only by the whorns.
Me too. I have no love for the Domers either, so the aforementioned Hurricane hitting the Orange Bowl sounds like the best possible outcome.
Asking what I hate more the SEC love fest or domer is like asking me where I'd rather live, Iraq or Pakistan.... Eff em all
I'm on board with the ND hate. Hope they lose their games, their helmets, their airplane tickets, and their car keys.
We hate ND at least as much and probably more than you guys do! With our almost equal record of futility against the domers(we're 1-5 all-time against them), having them as our opponent next month in the BCSCG is HUGE in and of itself, especially for the old-timers that had to live through the NC robberies in 1966 and 1977, and the 24-23 loss in the 1973 Sugar Bowl. Our similar playing styles should make for a very interesting game. I have been looking at this matchup for about 6 weeks, and I really believe that if Alabama commits to the run the way it did against Georgia, we will have a lot of success. Notre Dame simply does not have the horses on the D-Line to slow us down and Lacy will punish their LBs and safeties. Statistically Alabama's scoring defense is a little better. We allow 18.8 ppg fewer to our opponents than they score - ND allows 17.5 fewer. Our O is ahead of theirs, scoring 11.8 more ppg than our opponents allow - ND scores only 3.2 ppg more. As long as we stay close in the turnover battle, we should win.
