100th POST W000000000000T

Huzzah. This is the 100th post on this blog, just before its 1st birthday which is a week away. I would like to thank the Academy and all of my loyal reader(s) who made this possible.

Anyhow, I need to update on a bunch of stuff, including my trip to NYC. First, I will recount a few of the events from my trip to ND on Saturday...

MIA, D Fo, Brian, and I went down for the MSU game. We met up with P Knob and Grabbins. I got fairly drunk and belligerent. We started talking noise to some MSU fans on our way to the stadium. One lanky, strange-looking kid, rebutted by saying his team is going to win and we should meet up after the game so he could prove that he was right. I came back saying that we should go to i-hop and get some pancakes. It would be a fun outing. He had no response.

Notre Dame fans are waaaaay too nice to opposing fans. This dynamic really hurts ND's home field advantage. I proposed that all we need to do is stab one fan of the opposing team. That one small act would go a long way of creating a hostile atmosphere. I wanted to take a MSU fan out in to the woods, tie him to a tree, and stab him in the leg. On a similar note, during my drunken rampage directed toward MSU fans I claimed that we were gonna start "sacrificing people to Jesus." I'm normally not this rowdy. I'm not sure what got into me. Oh, yeah, I know -- SPARKS.

Notre Dame fans were pathetic during the game. People were sitting on their hands. I've decided Notre Dame is not a good football school. A good football school has fans that cheer loudly for their team no matter what. In the 3rd quarter when we were down 3 and obviously still in the game we held an MSU play to only a yard. I swear to God MIA and I were the only ones clapping in our section. I was nauseated. The fans are just. plain. lame. Part of it is that half the people are really really old. I will be a huge ND fan and represent for eternity, but Notre Dame, despite the history and whatever, is just not a good football school. We might win a NC in the next few years and 100 years from now might have 20 more NCs and an insane winning percentage, but until these fucking lameass fans get off their hands and start giving a shit about ND, ND wont be in the top 15 "football schools" in my mind. It hurts me to say it and it infuriates me how piss-poor the fans are. The students, to their credit, were very good.

Go Irish.

I hate bad fans. How can you be a fan if your spirit isn't in it? And if it is, how could you just sit around? I swear I have to take some Xanax during close Steeler games so I don't have a heart attack.

Have you ever heard of Be Your Own Pet? My friend and fellow gang member (it's a skate gang... we eat a lot of pizza) is the guitarist for that band. Anyway, last time he was in Tennessee he had a party where everyone only drank Sparks. His whole house smelled like liquid Smartees mixed with Jolt.
