"Rise Above Ourselves"

[cgvr]

"There is no academic virtue in playing mediocre football and no academic vice in winning a game that by all odds one should lose...There has indeed been a surrender at Notre Dame, but it is a surrender to excellence on all fronts, and in this we hope to rise above ourselves with the help of God."

• Rev. Theodore Hesburgh, C.S.C., "The Facts Of The Matter," Sports Illustrated (1959-01-19),

cgvr, The gall and hypocrisy of a Notre Dame hater like you to quote a fine human being like Father Ted! May you rot in hell!

 

[cgvr]

Haha, he signed my degree. He also knew me very well and stopped to speak with me and my friends on campus during a Stanford football weekend. My buddies were thoroughly impressed. Now granted I realize that pales in comparison to your being "hopnored" at a game.
Bwahahahaha..

" Make Notre Dame great again " !

From TOS:

In the last 20 years ND has won 10 or more games 4 times.

PS Stanford has done it 5 of the past 6 years....

Just put him on ignore like the majority of us have done - it will make you feel a lot better. And keep in mind for that loser the following:

Reports show that people who troll on the Internet exhibit traits of “sadism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism” in real life as well.

In the history of ND Football there have been only 16 teams to win 10 or more games in a season. This team will add to that number I believe, if they can avoid the injury bug that ravaged the defense over the last two years.

There have been 17 ND teams that have won 10 or more games in a season....not 16.

We've had:

47 seasons of 9 or less games
32 seasons of 10 games
14 seasons of 11 games
22 seasons of 12 games
12 seasons of 13 games (6 seasons under kelly)

3 of our 10 win seasons were in 10 game years
4 of our 10/10+ win seasons were in 11 game years
4 of our 10/10+ win seasons were in 12 game years
6 of our 10/10+ wins seasons were in 13 game years

The irony.

 

[cgvr]

I missed one of those illusive little devils! Sorry about that Irish fans.

In addition, you've missed that kelly holds the ND record for most 13 game seasons without 10 wins.
He has 4.

Davie and weis each have 1.
