Have another Cocktail Bernie

Don’t look now but Notre dame is going to kick some serious ass this season!

From the Post Tribune:

Notre Dame football fans got some good news, and a guarantee, about the upcoming season Wednesday night from an Irish assistant coach. "I guarantee you (Irish fans) that you won't be disappointed this season. Mark it down, we're on a mission," Bernie Parmalee, tight ends coach, told members of the Notre Dame Club of Northwest Indiana in St. Patrick's church hall. There's no way but up for the Irish after last fall's forgettable, regrettable 3-9 debacle.

Debacle is putting it nicely. This will be fun to watch. You keep thinking those positive thought Bernie…!

I have a client

That is a major ND fan. When I asked for his opinion on Weis after last season he seemed to be optimistic about a rebound considering the class that Weis recruited this year. He also seemed to want to blame most of last year on Willingham, which I deem to be unfair to the former coach. I did find it funny how Willingham and Weis have identical records, with no bowl wins after 3 seasons.

The most telling thing is that when Weis wins, its due to his football genius, and when he loses, its due to Willingham’s poor recruiting. Seems like Charlie can’t lose with those rules.

I still can't believe...

that ND doesn’t even list last season’s results on its website. It’s like it never happened.

Mission? From God?

Exactly who is this Parmalee guy and . . . .DUH?, it would be incredibly surprising for many people IF Clausen and Co., can get their team (and hairstyle ‘cause Jimmy’s spiked mullet AIN’T EVER gonna be “so retro, it’s cool”) under control and be competitive. They wilted like Morning Glory’s at high noon!

As far as the “mission” for them this year? If not Touchdown Jesus, than maybe God will help them with victories and fashion sense. The only thing Coach Weis has common with Jake and Elroy Blues (from the Blues Brothers, remember?) is ordering food at restaurants (and the lack of self-control therein):

Jake: Do you have any fried chicken ma’am?
Mrs. Murphy: Best damned chicken in the state.
Jake: Bring me four fried chickens and a Coke.
Mrs. Murphy: You want chicken wings or chicken legs?
Jake: Four fried chickens and a Coke.
Elwood: And some dry white toast please.
Mrs. Murphy: Ya’all want anything to drink with that?
Elwood: No ma’am.
Jake: A Coke.
Mrs. Murphy: Be right back.

The Fighting Rash has no where else to go but up, let’s all pray for barber’s, nutritionists, and relevance for those clowns. Our strength of schedule suffered last year because of ND’s dramatic collapse. (although they did “OK” vs. fUcla, no?)
