Hours After -- The View From Dublin, Ireland


It's been a few hours since the Fightin' Irish put a "half a hundred" on the Naval Academy this afternoon at AVIVA Stadium.  The 50 - 10 final score put a nice bow on what has been a special weekend for the University of Notre Dame and the ND Family.

From Friday Night's "Welcome Home" celebration to Mass this morning with thousands of Notre Dame fans at historic Dublin Castle -- to our team's performance on the field -- you just couldn't have had a better time in IRELAND if you were an IRISH fan!

In the past few minutes I've taken a lap around the worldwide web to see what the early reaction is to ND's dominating win -- and what the IRISH people are saying about Notre Dame's visit to their country:
