You know the only thing better than watching Notre Dame lose? Watching them lose in a living room full of Notre Dame fans. I had my broadcaster hat on from calling the Hartford Colonials game on ESPN Radio earlier in the day, so when they cut to the shot of Brian Kelly (45 second mark above), I dropped an octave and let this loose, “A fake field goal to win it, bravado in spades for the Spartans, and the look of of disbelief on Brian Kelly’s face says it all…”
Well that was about as well received as AIDS by the Irish faithful in the room, who put down their Heinekens and Black Eyed Peas’ CD’s and called me a douche bag. Sure UConn dropped it to Temple, but letting a fake field goal light you up for six, and ending it in overtime is too good not to be a little (okay, a lot) douchey. You know when you’re coach almost dies of heart attack due to the excitement, its just good college football.
Slow clap, Michigan State. Slow clap.
(and wishing you a speedy recovery Coach Dantonio)
