Thanks to the Wolverines for taking some of the heat off this week. They went to epic proportions, to the point of making the cover of SI based on their loss to Appalachian State. Talk about overachieving. I'm listening to Mike and Mike on ESPN radio right now and they're still talking about Michigan.
A sign of the times: In SI last week, Peter King ranked the top 500 NFL players. Obviously a subjective ranking, but very telling in some ways. The top ND alum on the list? My quick scan reveals it is none other than BRADY QUINN, at #361, who hasn't played a down yet! Wow. Now I know that the job of college football programs, theoretically, isn't to produce professional players. But you know that rival coaching/recruiting staffs are going to use "The King 500" with HS prospects saying "you don't want to go to ND, you'll never make it to the NFL".
I'll be watching tomorrow's game on "tape delay" tomorrow. We're having Natalie's 11th birthday party from 1-4. For those of you with pre-teen girls, are they into American Girl Dolls? We're hosting an American Girl Mystery Party for Natalie and 8 or ten of her friends, full up with costumes, fancy food and all the trimmings. Should be much more fun than watching the first half live.
I'm feeling a 31-13 loss tomorrow. But if Penn State starts rolling, they won't forget last year, and it could get ugly.
Try to have a good weekend all.
The Colonel
