Jackie Young and Marina Mabrey Make Debuts

The two former Fighting Irish stars went a combined 6 for 8 from the floor in their WNBA debuts last night in the Las Vegas Aces win over the Los Angeles Sparks.

Jackie Young was Jackie Young -- she only took four shots and made EVERY ONE OF THEM!

Oh, by the way -- the Las Vegas Aces have a couple more "Domers" -- head coach Bill Laimbeer and star guard Kayla McBride.  Kayla scored 20 points in the win!

Heaven's "Notre Dame Section" Has One More

Jody Bailey (Dallas, TX) -- loved Notre Dame more than most, as you can see by the pictures above.  Unfortunately, Jody lost his battle with cancer earlier this week. Tomorrow morning at 10 AM CT -- Jody's family and countless friends will gather at St. Pius X Catholic Church, to celebrate a life well lived.

Fittingly, Jody asked to be buried in his favorite Notre Dame shirt.

I want to thank Jody's good friend Tim Mathews -- who just retired after 32 years of service in the Military -- for reaching out to me to share his buddy's love for Notre Dame.

Heaven's "Notre Dame Section" just got a good one today!
