The "Rumored" Shamrock Series Helmet & Uni


There was a post at the blog UNI-WATCH the other day from an individual who said he was at an Under Armour "photo shoot" for Notre Dame that had this year's Shamrock Series helmet and full uniform being worn by a model.

Now the poster said -- "we were not allowed to take pictures..." -- but, he went on to describe what the 2014 Notre Dame Shamrock Series helmet and uniform would look like.

So, a Notre Dame fan took the description and created the images above -- can't beat the Notre Dame fan base can you!  Please know I don't have a clue as to what this year's Shamrock Series helmet and uniform looks like -- but, like many of you -- I can't wait to see it!

Trade Keeps Samardzija from All-Star Game!


It was just announced that Jeff Samardzija was selected to play for the National League in the upcoming All-Star game.  However, his trade from the Chicago Cubs to the Oakland A's will keep him out of the game...

I'm sure Cubs' fans are happy about this.

Hey A's Fans It's: S-A-M-A-R-D-Z-I-J-A !!!

A New Look for Jeff Samardzija in Oakland


His hair and mustache would have fit in nicely with the Oakland A's of yesteryear -- Rollie Fingers, Dennis Eckersley, Coco Crisp, etc.

Former Notre Dame All-American wide receiver Jeff Samardzija has found a new home with the Oakland Athletics -- after the big July 4th trade which sent him to the west coast from the Chicago Cubs.

Here's a photo of Jeff in the Oakland A's dugout last night -- along with photos of former A's; Crisp, Eckersley and Fingers.

Samardzija gets the start today for the A's in their game against the Toronto Blue Jays -- first pitch at 4:05 PM ET -- I'll have the results when the game is over.
