Charlie Weis stirred some intrigue when he said an unnamed player showed up at his office at 5:30 a.m. Monday, seeking advice on how to become a better leader. Weis called it "one of the most enjoyable parts of my entire week." Hours later, left tackle Sam Young ended the mystery and copped to being the early and eager riser -- though he downplayed the sleepless-night dramatics Weis included. "I just want the team to do well," Young said. "Whatever position I need to be in, I want to fill it."

You can't have too many stories about how much the stink of desperation surrounds Notre Dame.

Speaking of stink...ND has a perfunctory aroma of stale communion wafers and a fat man's asscrack

So... a kid gets tired of losing, goes to the coach and says, "hey, what can I do to help us stop sucking so @#%^@^ bad?" Then the kid and Charlie sit down to an all you can eat Pancake buffet and put the restaraunt out of business... And this makes news?

damn...now I'm craving blueberry buttermilk pancakes drowned in Catholic tears.....

You know what all this proves, right? It's never been more clear, considering the horrible stretch of football following the crushing, soul-destroying defeat at the hands of Leinart & Bush. There's only one explanation: God hates Notre Dame.

You know....this would make a GREAT movie....fiesty underachieving kid...goes to ND...willingness to do whatever it takes to help the team, sacrifices health and wellbeing....oh wait.....this has been done....right?

The Hunchback of Notre Dame?

They need to circle the wagons.....remove outsiders....eliminate inferior beings and organize a collective effort to consolidate resources, time, and money.

How 'bout the "Big Gut of Notre Dame"?
