Although the bruise is on Jimmy Clausen’s face, the real gut punch was served to Charlie Weiss by Notre Dame administration.
In a not-so-stunning vote on no confidence, Weiss will not be allowed to stay in California for recruiting purposes, as is customary when their final game of the season is played out west. Furthermore, AD Jack Swarbrick has put the nation on alert for an announcement concerning Weiss’s future.
The only question now is: Who is willing to take on the curse of the Irish?
(I really, really was trying to avoid ragging on Notre Dame today because even though I hate 1) Notre Dame and 2) all the Clausens except Rick, I am saddened by the attack on Jimmy. C’mon folks- yes football is uber-important, especially if you live in a frozen tundra where there’s nothing to do but go to school or the hospital, but c’mon. Actual violent attacks are best left to socialist Europeans who assume they have sole authority to define what “football” means. On the other hand, considering the flaunting of their faux-Irish roots, maybe this is exactly the sort of behavior you’d expect in South Bend.)
That was the second time he got in a fistfight because he was running his mouth at that particular public establishment after an embarrassing loss. I'm disinclined to place more than 5% of the blame on the guy who was throwing the punches. You and I both know JC is a little punk and had it coming.
ReplyDeleteThis was his second fight? When was the first? I'm so sorry I missed that...but glad you found your way here :)
