The Link Between DeBerry, The Astros And Dubya

Fisher DeBerry, Racist ... Or Just Evil Devil Spawn?
OK, so we've been watching the video of Air Force coach Fisher DeBerry's comments about African-American players, specifically that ""they run extremely well."

The Wizard Of Odds sends us this photo of some chubby fellow streaking down the sidelines at Saturday's Cal Poly-Montana game....
Could ND's Savior Be Gone After One Year?
The Mighty MJD brings up something we hadn't thought about: Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis, the "savior" of college football's most "sainted" program, has a very cheap buyout clause in his contract that would allow him to go to an NFL team for just $1.5 million.

Anybody Recovered From The USC Game Yet?
Honestly, you just know Nick Lachey was wetting his pants in South Bend on Saturday.

Most of the Notre Dame fans we know aren't even angry...

If you weren't officially excited enough about the Notre Dame-USC game already, let this wet your whistle: It's WeisWatchers, (another) Irish fans site. (Honestly, Irish fans, they're a little weird.

The Dirty Sheets Of South Bend
People are so excited about the USC-Notre Dame game this weekend that even travel arrangements are making the news.

Does Joe Pa Hate Lesbians Too?
Yesterday, we made a glib remark about Joe Paterno and Penn State's homophobic coach, because hey, we're a blog, we're glib, it's what we do. We joked that you could say what you want about Joe Paterno, but at least unlike his women's basketball coach, he didn't hate lesbians....
