Happy Halloween From Our Granddaughter!
Our "almost 11 month old" granddaughter Kinley is modeling her first ever Halloween costume today in Vero Beach, FL. Our daughter Kara crafted this ensemble...
Very creative!
It's too bad King's Hawaiian isn't looking for a poster child!
OT: I Wonder If This Has Happened Before...
I am a life-long Detroit Tigers' fan -- this starting rotation couldn't win a World Series in Detroit -- however, within five years of leaving Motown, they all have World Series Rings.
Frustrating.

So, here's how the bowl options look moving forward for Notre Dame -- assuming that Clemson is in the College Football Playoff:
Finish the season 10 - 2:
- Orange Bowl or Cotton Bowl
Finish the season 9 - 3:
- Citrus Bowl or Camping World Bowl
Finish the season 8 - 4:
- Belk Bowl, Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl or Pinstripe Bowl

The Aftermath -- Michigan Athletics and Media
Dear @NDFootball,
we need to take a break. We’ve been doing this for a while now and we
need our space. We’re glad we could end on good terms, thank you for not
being defensive. Let’s keep in touch and maybe we’ll try again in 14
years if you’re still independent. 👋

Strong stuff from
@UMichFootball
tonight - satisfying rebound for the just the 2nd Top 10 win under
Harbaugh... but disappointing No-Show by @NDFootball
(as Kirk perfectly put it). Can’t blame it all on the weather. I Hoped
for much more in last series meeting until 2033..

Can’t decide if I
was more impressed with @UMichFootball
last night or more disappointed in @NDFootball
and their lack of competitive spirit!
UM has become a
different team in the last 6 quarters and will be dangerous for anyone
they play. ND?? Not even sure what to say.

Yes, It's This Big -- Notre Dame vs. Michigan
This fact does not play well for the "good guys" tonight -- Michigan and Notre Dame have played eight previous times at night. The home team has won everyone of those games.
THAT CHANGES TONIGHT!
Go Irish!
