Your Notre Dame/Penn State Hatefest! An Open Thread

Someone once said, “If you don’t have anything good to say about anyone, come here and have a seat beside me.” My guess is Dorothy Parker because she had all the good quips but I think it was a society dame in reality.

Like, we all tend to lean towards lower-seeded teams doing well but this time it sure as hell didn’t work. Both made mincemeat of their opponent on the last round. Are they that good or are the seedings all wonky-like? Overall, college football is doing us a solid by keeping us (sorta) entertained the next two nights until the Big Boys show up on the weekend.

-If you’re not up for this and would like to watch college ball, #20 Purdue, #15 Oregon and #16 Michigan State are out there on the hardcourt.

-Tom Telesco A-Go-Go: You sign your name on the Raiders bottom line and you’re just not around for long because Mark Davis has the attention span of Andy Dick on coke. Actually, just Andy Dick. Of course he didn’t help his cause by signing everyone’s favorite backup Gardener Minshew to start and to collect 15 million in guaranteed monies. (Minshew lasted 5 games, but he dresses funky) Telesco didn’t even last one calendar year. Who the hell wants to be a coach or executive in this morbidly dysfunctional excuse for a franchise?

-You’ve long moved on by now but back in December of ’23 Frank Wychek died as a result of a fall in his house. Results recently made public show that he was suffering from the second-most severe stage of CTE. Fifty-two years old, man.

I didn’t get a chance to ask this in the DFOCanCon thread, but when you go to Niagara Falls is anyone going to do Slowly I Turned?

To keep the strange, dark, and mysterious vibes tonight going, it seems someone poured or dumped gasoline into the sewers of Bridgeville. Gumbygirl knows there are no bridges in Bridgeville.

Anyway, four calls within two blocks all reporting gasoline vapors coming out of the basement, sewer drain, or outside. This is making an old folks home evacuate.

Gumbygirl

What the fuck? Why would anyone do something like that?

Horatio Cornblower

Sort of hoping Notre Dame wins the whole thing now, just because of how bad it would make Brian Kelly look.

He should try 9-1-1. I’m sure he’s great at keeping panicked callers calm.

Gumbygirl

Brick there’s a guy on channel 4 from the Palisades Legion you probably know

Gumbygirl

The Legion did not burn, yay!

Brick Meathook

Get a screen shot or name!

Gumbygirl

They said he was a past commander, first name Jim? He is a retired Army Lt Colonel

Brick Meathook

Probably Jim Cragg

Beerguyrob

Aww, what a shame. Penn State couldn’t come from behind when they needed it most.

Brick Meathook

Penn St needs a Hail Mary here.

Brick Meathook

Or not.

Horatio Cornblower

Look Penn State, if Rick Pitino can knock up a waitress and ruin his career in 7 seconds, surely you can score 3 points.

Notre dame: a school legitimately unlikeable that it’s making me root for a school that’s best known for protecting a child molester

Horatio Cornblower

I was taking the exact opposite tact.

Really says something about both schools.

Brick Meathook

What the hell is so unlikeable about either of them?

Horatio Cornblower

Pedophilia, for one. Harassing a woman who accused a player of rape to the point she committed suicide for another.

Little things.

Brick Meathook

You can’t make an omelette without cracking a few eggs.

Horatio Cornblower

DOINK or SHANK’LOR, WHICH DEITY SHALL BE APPEASED!?!?

Horatio Cornblower

Heresy.

WCS

I blame you.

Horatio Cornblower

Evergreen.

Horatio Cornblower

There is approximately no chance a college kicker makes a 54-yard FG under these conditions.

Game Time Decision

But it’s Jeter

Horatio Cornblower

3-6 from 50+, longest was 53 against Georgia State.

I learned all this approximately 40 seconds ago.

Game Time Decision

You still knew more that me as I just tuned in with about 90 seconds left in the game and this is the mostest American college football I’ve watch in years

LemonJello

FAHK YOU JETAH!

Brocky

YOU SHOULD HAVE SHOT A-ROD!

Mr. Ayo

Gift baskets for all Golden Domers!

Mr. Ayo

SUDDEN CHANGE!

Terrible throw.

Horatio Cornblower

Yay! Sad Paedo State fans!!

Boo!! Happy ND fans!!

Gumbygirl

The “come sit by me” gal was Alice Roosevelt, I think.
