Two of the biggest exploitations in the history of the sports were 1) Bill Veeck putting a midget into a baseball game and 2) Notre Dame using a Hunchback.
Veeck wasn't the first to sign a midget when bringing in Eddie Gaedel, the Yankees already had Phil Rizzuto. :wink:

I hate Notre Dame because 99.9% of ND's fan base isn't even smart enough to enroll there, and this is despite the fact that the ND admission requirement/academic strictness argument has already been proven bunk since Lou Holtz took over.

I don't hate Notre Dame. I dislike them, though. I think the worst thing about them is how they shot down Big Ten's offer. It makes me think that they have a "holier than thou" opinion. And, of course, ND fans talk about their team the same way. I would LOVE to see ND come crawling to the Big Ten, wanting to join, but the Big Ten says No, and then invites someone like Miami (OH), Marshall, or Louisville. (I know I know - NEVER gonna happen, but it would be sweet!)

Yes there is already a thread somewhere, but this one is just for Chief...and I was DOUBLE-DOG DARED to start this one :)


Guess I should respond since I'm the one that DOUBLE DOME DARED 21 to start this thread. :biggrin:

I don't really hate ND. There ARE quite a few ND fans I dislike with a passion. The only other thing that bothers me is how quickly the media is ready to jump on the bandwagon. Remember Ty's first season? They're back! Well, maybe not quite. Well, maybe in a year or so. Ok, not until a new coach takes over. Please, let them earn the respect back first. Ah, well, what does the media know?

All in fun Chief, all in fun.

6. "Play Like a Champion Today" sign above the stairs that the players hit on their way to the field.
BB73 - They changed the sign to the following

Actually, hate isn't strong enough for what I feel towards ND. Their arrogance, holier-than-thou, praying the rosary during games, whiny fan base, and reverance from some as being close to a god-like status, causes me to desire a scUM victory over them when they play. Much of this is a result from knowing one too many over-bearing, mentally challenged ND fans over the years, but it was pushed over the edge in the 90's while sitting in the 'Shoe watching the Bucks kick their candy asses back to South Bend and enduring ND fans in front of me holding their rosaries and praying before a field goal attempt by ND.

The only thing you left out was the hyp-hyp-hypocrisy! Hyp-hyp-hypocrisy!

How about because it is an institution run by an organization that paid out over a billion dollars in settlements to the children they molested last year?
