I saw deadspin doing a why your team sucks 2012 for nfl. Well I thought I'd do a little top 25 version of all the college teams, using ESPN's prestigious power rankings. First up #25 Notre Dame. 1. You have been trying to "be back" longer than Nebraska has.They have not win a national championship since 1988, and can anyone even remember who the best player on that team was. No, because all of notre dame's players who make it to the nfl either make it by name recognition (Golden Tate) or pretty boy looks (Brady Quinn). Oh yeah, where is Brady Quinn these days, nobody cares because he can't even start for the Browns. They thought they were back by hiring Charlie Weis the great New England Patriots offensive coordinator. That seemed to work out well. Seriously, Penn State you should have taken notes with your hire. I mean sh#t they thought Brian Kelly out of Cincinnati was a good hire, his face makes Bo's look like an albino snake. The only reason nobody gives him any guff about it is because they play on NBC, the worldwide leader of shutting down tv shows after 2 seasons. 2. Speaking of NBC, does anyone even watch that except for Notre Dame fans? This really has nothing to do with Notre Dame, but thanks to you Notre Dame we have to put up with easily the shittiest local channel, and that is bad considering Fox is horrendous. The only good thing NBC did was Friday Night Lights and the only person who made that show worth a damn was Riggins. Where is Riggins now a days making bad movie after bad movie (John Carter, Savages, Battleship). Thanks Notre Dame fans for Friday Night Lights, not Heroes, Community, or Parks and Recreation though 3. Join a conference or face your doom. I get sick and tired of hearing how hard Notre Dame's schedule is. For one, you make your own schedule which is about as difficult as cooking a steak rare. Everyone would play you, its national television every game, they get paid a buttload, why not? But if you join some conference like the Big Ten, Big East, or ACC your schedule will get much easier, much much easier. Swap USC, Michigan, Michigan State, and Stanford for say North Carolina, Virginia Tech, NC State, and Miami. Much much easier. Of course the Big Ten may be a bit more of a challenge. The big thing is swapping those easier games for much easier games. Notre Dame always seems to drop 2 out of 4 to either navy, south florida, army, or air force. you swap those teams out and ya look at a DII and a couple powder puffs. You'd still make the playoff considering you have the name of Notre Freakin Dame. 4. You can't recruit worth sh#t at all period. Well okay actually you can, but you develop players almost as good as taco bell develops a cantina burrito. Stick to Chipotle. 5. And last but certainly not least, for some reason I find myself switching to channel 6 every Saturday around 2 pm. I don't know how you do it Notre Dame, but I have taken a liking to watching you lose to teams you should beat and beating teams that you should lose to. It's just fun to watch, watching a Notre Dame game is like going to Cedar Point and riding every roller coaster blindfolded. It's fun but eventually, you're probably gonna sh#t yourself. I still hate you though Notre Dame, the only thing good about South Bend was the College Football Hall of Fane and now they moved that to the ATL, so T.I. and company can pretend to care about football like all other sports fans in Atlanta.
