It was a GREAT Game
OK, we might as well just put this out there......
Saturday was NOT a good football day in Tammi's World. Hell....as far as college football goes, it's been a pretty damned bad YEAR!
In case you're new here, I.....am a Notre Dame fan. Have been my whole life. I grew up in the shadow of the dome.
Good years and bad years....I've stood by them. This year, I'm still there for them. I just, believe it or not, know when to keep my mouth shut.
I said I'm a diehard fan. NOT an ignorant fan.
We got nothing to run our mouths about this year. It's pretty ugly.
As a couple people have mentioned, (not naming names) Navy beat ND this weekend. For the first time in 43 years.
It was a great game. Close, down to the wire, multiple overtimes involved, and when it came down to it.....Navy had what it takes to close the deal.
I.....did not watch the game. I KNEW Navy was gonna win that one. I did. And I was not going to hurt myself or my home trying to watch it.
You see.......I'm not a "polite" person when football is involved. Until a couple of years ago, I was not allowed to watch football at Mama Vi's. It was due to a really bad game played by ND. I was 13. I was yelling at the game. Now, I don't know if it was when I stood up yelling, YOU STUPID SON'S OF BITCHES, or trying to get away from Mama Vi for yelling that in her house, but somehow the coffee table and all the pretty stuff on it got broken. And I was banned from watching in her house. For over 30 years.
So no....I didn't watch the game. I listened to it. And it was a really good game.
Navy deserved to win.
But I do need to say this much......ND has about the worst team that I remember ever seeing fielded in South Bend in my life time. Seriously.
And THAT is all I'm sayin' about college football this year.
Congratulations Navy! You played a HELL of a game!!!!

HA HA HA HA HA HA
I just wish I'd been home to watch it. I had no clue until Sunday night? I was so lost in my world I had no clue ND and Navy were even playing this weekend!
My Dad hates ND. I don't. If ND were going to lose one game every year and it was to Navy, I'd be content. I'm just sorry I frickin' missed it. Even people I know who watch neither team watched that game this year.
I suspect it will be another 44 years... it may very well be a once in a lifetime thing.
