    ND Fans,

    One loss and the media is out to bash Notre Dame!

    Any comments, other than to not read the article!

    Really and truly this is about the only thing I take exception to
    I won't bother the list all the preseason heisman favorites who fell by the way side, from lots of places that aren't ND.


    Other than that, Brady Quinn hasn't had the Heisman year that he was supposed to have. So he's got to take the good with the bad. I think Brady will rebound and have a fine year, and have a fine NFL career afterwards.

    I love this. The media are the hypsters. They do the building up. And then if you don't meet THEIR expectations you're 'OVERHYPED." OK so write a column about the asshole pollsters and writers who were doing the overhyping. No wait, that's not part of the agenda.

    Freeman is a jerk plain and simple. He's the one who always plays the race card and accused Gator fans of not not liking Leak because he is black and last year called Urban Meyer a liar.

    Why Sportsline hired this jerk is beyond me, but if you go back and read everything he has written for Sportsline they are all in a similar vein and very negative.

    Did I say he was a jerk?
