    Just an FYI, Insight is a tv cable provider…
    And sprout, that concoction you are drinking is extremely disturbing, good luck with your non-alcoholic, purple fuzzy tongue drink.

    Giant flower on a segway. Awesome.

    I haven’t watched Home Alone yet this Christmas season. Thanks for the reminder, that is my favorite line.

    Oh, and remember that the Oregon St. team in the ‘01 Fiesta Bowl featured Ocho Cinco and TJ Houshmanzadonoergnweronha.

    Hawaii used to have the sickest logo around.

    ND used to have the best winning percentage in football before the 9 straight L’s. Plus, we beat an undefeated and/or #1 ranked team 8 times of the 13 bowl wins.

    Third random note, in the ‘01 Fiasco Bowl, Clifford “Toast” Jefferson faked a hammy injury after getting torched by a Beaver, who subsequently celebrated early and dropped the ball on the two yard line. He was awarded the TD and a celebration penalty. Dennis Erickson sure knew how to class a team up.

    According to Si.com, Notre Dame is considered the home team so we wear the dark jerseys while Hawaii has to wear white jerseys. ND is either wearing black or green, sorry Sprout

    That Beaver celebrating in ‘01 was, I believe, TJ Houshmanbastard. I was watching that game alone in my apartment in Chicago at the time, and threw a garbage can off my balcony into the dumpster below in anger. That was a bad day.

    It’s going to be amazing when they come out in Green, especially since we won’t start watching the game until about midnight Eastern. That poor overnight receptionist at NBC, working Christmas Eve and having to listen to Sprout’s rants.

    You raise two great points, Adam:

    1) No one call/text/post/email during the game. Eric and I aren’t watching until Adam arrives in Cleveland well after 10:00pm

    2) Gramma better hide all her garbage cans and lock her windows.

    Sprout on December 17th, 2008 at 2:48 pm

    @JohnnyIrish, I actually have a pretty sick old Hawaii hat. I’ll have it for the next show.

    Sprout on December 17th, 2008 at 2:49 pm

    Interesting that you would call it “your” sick old Hawaii hat.

    A$%&#! Lawyer on December 17th, 2008 at 5:15 pm

    You’re such a bitter older brother.

    Sprout on December 17th, 2008 at 6:17 pm

    Sprout, you and A$%&#! Lawyer sound like me and Mannix. Sprout, you seem a little moody…need a beer?

    Screw the Green jerseys. Screw the black jerseys.

    Weis needs to mix it up and add a little ghetto to the game.
    They should come out on the field with no jerseys…just pads and some black electric tape slapped on their chest for numbers.
    Come on Weis…take it to the playground and go Shirts vs. Skins.

    Sprout, have fun with that Colonic….I’m sure you’ll start a trend and Cedar Point will somehow flip it into some sort of new ride this summer.

    On und.com, there is a short clip of past ND v UH games and there are some great shots of the old logo in use. Plus, there are clips of my hero, Lou, and of our offensive line pounding people into submission. Rick Mirer ran the fucking option behind that o-line! If Quinn had that o-line, he would have had exactly 45,843 yards per game.

    Back to the logo, the stylized “H” is so bland. A lot of schools used to have unique, quirky logos, but most have become nike-fied and have stock logo packages. Look at how many schools have an anthropomorphized caricature boldly standing on the school name.

    Mike Floyd is gonna catch 3 TDs and Golden Tate will have 1. They will lead the team to victory as long as Jimmy doesnt throw picks in replace of these four touchdowns.

    teenagedNDfan on December 18th, 2008 at 6:27 pm

    They’ll each have 4 if we wear black jerseys already.

    Eric on December 19th, 2008 at 7:35 am

    A slight correction…Lou busted out the green jerseys for the 1992 Sugar Bowl vs. Florida. They were wearing the white jerseys with green letters and green socks…tight! This was the Bettis 6 for 6 game. Take that ol’ ball coach!

    greenforirish on December 21st, 2008 at 10:37 pm

    I was just wondering if you guys were going to extend your shows for signing day and a follow up to the spring game and maybe even spring practices. Good stuff keep it up.
