@sportscrack pretty sweet shirt!! Might need to get a few of those🍀

12-0. #1 in the nation in both graduation rates and on the football field. Notre Dame is the pinnacle of everything that is right with college football. An elite academic institution that has proven you can win on and off the field by playing the right way and not cutting corners.
Go Irish!
I would fight this drunk too. Did you see that pathetic excuse for a Johnny Football shirt? Good lord have some decency. You are embarrassing yourself with that garbage t-shirt. You are lucky you didn't get tasered to death for having an awful sense of fashion. Next time get the original and the best...
Hahahaha. I can almost taste his tears. Just a complete meltdown while playing Call of Duty. You know this Bama fan is still quivering inside his Mom's basement while pulling his hair out and muttering "Johnny Football." The Aggies, a middle of the road Big 12 team the past 15 years, just wanted to thank Bama for their warm welcome to the mighty SEC Conference. Manziel sends his love for the gracious hospitality.
In some dark alley Tyrone Prothro is shaking his head while sobbing into his old torn up Bama jersey "I could have been All-American!"
Brittney Palmer is an UFC Octagon Girl which means she "entertains" the crowd between rounds of guys fighting each other in skin tight shorts which isn't gay at all by the way. Essentially she holds a sign up saying what round it is. That takes talent people. And as you can see she has plenty of it.

Just remember everybody....your vote in the grand scheme of things doesn't mean shit. But yeah have a good voting day!
Down 20-6 in the fourth quarter to an unranked Pitt team, Notre Dame freshman QB Everett Golson pulled the improbable and led the Fighting Irish to a 29-26 triple overtime victory to keep ND undefeated.
With the close win ND dropped to 4th in the BCS standings with Oregon moving up to 3rd after a win at USC. #1 remains the same with Alabama pulling off another improbable win on the road at Death Valley with a last minute win after some questionable calls by LSU head coach Les Miles. KState remains at #2 with another decisive victory over Okie State. The game did have some consequences though with Heisman frontrunner Collin Klein going down with a concussion. Will he play this week vs TCU? That remains to be seen.
With only a month left to go we have 4 undefeated major power teams who could all make an argument for being in the BCS Title game. Two would be left out and would likely play each other in the Rose Bowl. If that is the case we might be looking at our first split National Title since 2003.
How can you not roof for the Colts after seeing Indianapolis head coach Chuck Pagano give this inspiring speech to his players after a hard fought victory over the Miami Dolphins while still battling leukemia? We here at SportsCrack have nothing but respect to Pagano and we hope he finds a way to beat the deadly disease. Today we should all be ChuckStrong!
It's gotta be hard to vote for a guy who gets engaged to a girl before even delivering a first kiss right? I don't even understand it. KState QB Collin Klein should be running mad game all around Manhattan while spraying his purple rain on coeds yet here he is fucking married. Stupid. What a waste of talent. I'm not a very religious person but I'm pretty sure God gave you the bat and two balls so you could fucking use it and not hide in your locker while you heard "voices" in your head telling you to marry this person. That's not the Lord buddy. It's called your nuts. I'm not saying he should go all Travis Henry and start impregnating all of North America but you should at least be able to enjoy your success. God didn't give you a #1 Heisman leader campaign to piss it away by being a pussy. But hey, to each their own Tebow Jr. I guess his teammates get to enjoy themselves with all the lonely leftovers because Klein is too scared to kiss a girl in fear of God throwing down a thunderbolt on his pansy ass.Klein's faith is out front, along with his chin that has led the way during 492 career runs. In a Kansas State-produced story that appeared in a game program, Klein said he was told by the Lord he would marry K-State women's basketball player Shalin Spani. The daughter of former KSU football great Gary Spani said she heard "a voice in my head" independently that told her she would marry Klein.They became engaged before they formally had a first date. That first kiss came on the altar July 21, fulfilling a promise Klein made to himself at age 14. His first kiss would not come until then."Yes," Spani was quoted saying about their courtship, "it's unusual."
I love this shit. It doesn't get any funnier than Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love dressing up as old people and fooling a bunch of paid actors and extras who are conveniently drinking Pepsi Max in pickup basketball. Priceless and brilliant.
Well played David Stern. Well played. After this he retired to his private suite where he kicked puppies and kittens and lit up his stogie with burning Franklins.

Excellent form by the Dad on the take down. He even caused the fumble. He must have watched Jarvis Jones highlights vs Florida.

Seriously how do you take a third strike right down the middle to end the game? Come on Miggy. I thought you were the greatest player ever to win the Triple Crown? Sick pitch by Sergio Romo to give the SF Giants their 2nd World Series title in 3 years. M-V-Panda took home the hardware after his 3 bombs in Game 1. I thought the Giants would win in 5 games but clearly I was wrong. The Tigers just couldn't hit their pitching and the Giants finished off the sweep rather easily. To be honest I didn't watch more than 20 minutes of the World Series. I love playing baseball but once my Orioles and Braves are out of it I just can't make myself watch it.
Anyways congrats to the Giants. They deserved it. And as long as the Yankees don't win a nation can rejoice.
I gotta admit I was kind of hoping Lee Corso would point the gun at Desmond Howard. Just kidding. Not really. Yep, the media was right. Notre Dame didn't have a shot at going into Norman and beating the almighty Oklahoma Sooners. It made perfect sense too when Notre Dame entered the game undefeated with an all-time record of 8-1 vs the Sooners. Nobody could have predicted Notre Dame would come in and dominate Oklahoma 30-13 right? Oh wait. Yeah we did. So what's going to be the excuse now for all the ND haters out there? Oklahoma is overrated? Notre Dame hasn't played anybody good? Just keep on doubting the Irish. It just makes you look smarter.
NC State made the fatal mistake of kicking it to Gio Bernard with less than 30 seconds left in the game. Bernard took the slight in coaching and took it to the house. By the way those chrome foot print helmets UNC was rocking are fantastic.
Chris Cooley is back with the Redskins, happier than ever (having Robert Griffin III replace Rex Grossman will ward off any ill feelings about being released) after the Skins re-signed him following Fred Davis injury.
But the new contract didn't come easy. Apparently there were some heated negotiations about ... beer.
"Literally, I have text correspondence trying to negotiate a case of beer into my contract," Cooley said, via the Washington Post's Dan Steinberg. "They wouldn't do it. I wanted it in writing so much."Slow golf clap for one Mr. Cooley. I wonder what brand of beer though? Cooley looks more like a Natty Light guy to me than a pretentious MicroBrew guy. I'm both of those guys by the way. Or as some have labeled me including my sponsor "an alcoholic."
The funniest thing about this ESPN First Take foul mouthed gaffe by Stephen A Smith is that if a white person said it they would be immediately fired and Jesse Jackson would be protesting in front of ESPN's headquarters in Bristol, CT for racism. But nope. Nothing will happen to Smith. Black people just don't know how good they have it.*
By the way Smith is denying he ever used the N word. Don't believe me? Well here is his denial.
Stand up guy right?

*joke in case there are some people who actually take this blog seriously.
Remember the All-Star game when Kung Fu Panda rocked a triple off Justin Verlander? Well last night he added to his resume with two long balls off the reigning AL MVP on his way to a World Series record 3 bombs to join the likes of Babe Ruth, Reggie Jackson, and Albert Pujols. Say what you want about Verlander as he is probably the best starting pitcher in the game but please stop comparing him to Bob Gibson. Gibson was a big time clutch pitcher. Verlander clearly is not. For some reason Verlander doesn't pitch well in the postseason. With Sandoval heating up and the Giants dominant pitching including their bullpen I think the Giants win it in 5 games.
How can you not root for a kid like Manti Te'o? Yes I am a Notre Dame homer but this kid has to go down as one of the best ever to run out of that tunnel to the hollowed grounds of Notre Dame. As good as he is on the field he is by all accounts a better person off of it. The Heisman Trophy is suppose to go the most outstanding college football player in the nation who also exemplifies character. Te'o is the best player in college football right now. At the very least he deserves to get an invite to New York City as one of the finalists. He's the ultimate leader and teammate and decided to bypass the millions from the NFL to finish what he started at Notre Dame. And he is the best player on the field on any given Saturday. HE IS MANti.
I saw this on Jimmy Kimmel last night and I could not stop laughing. It's like watching fat people porn. Without the fatties and the flour of course.
This season so far has been a dream come true for Notre Dame. Even the players are getting into it on Facebook. 6-0. #4 in the BCS. This is what it will do to you!
This was way better than the MLB version. The Clemson and BYU ones cracked me up.
This Nun is clearly an Alex Rodriguez fan. Just stealing and acting like it's no big deal.

I feel bad to admit this but I missed the whole last season of The League. It's one of the best comedies out there besides the Chicago Cubs and yet fatherhood and a nightly drinking habit kept me away. Well fuck that. It's time to get my Shiva Bowl on! In terms of comedies where would you rank it?
Here are mine. And like a Cubs fan feel free to argue your reason to live another day.
1) Curb Your Enthusiasm - Just delivers every episode. The Michael J. Fox episode was hilarious last season.
2) Modern Family - The writing is rather brilliant for a network show.
3) Veep - I laughed so hard at a couple of episodes tears formed. Brilliant writing and Julia Louis-Dreyfus dialogue with her co stars is fucking hysterical.
4) Californication - Hank Moody is my hero.
5) The League - I gotta watch season 3 but the first two were hilarious.
Just missed the cut: Always Sunny In Philadelphia (was kinda disappointed with it last year, probably has run it's course)
The Faile family from Kershaw, South Carolina, was the Columbia Metropolitan Airport Military Family of the Game, set to be recognized on the field. Their first surprise was a message to them from their dad/husband, Sergeant First Class Scott Faile, playing on the video board, followed by an even bigger surprise. The Gamecocks would go on to beat Georgia, 35-7, just as Sgt. Faile predicted.
These videos always get me. It's like watching Old Yeller get the gun. Not many people realize the sacrifices the soldiers and their families have to go through in order to keep our freedoms. Tip of the hat to the University of South Carolina for pulling this off and making these strange water droplets come out of my eyes on a Monday morning.

I'm still lost how Clemson pulled off this play and I've watched it 15 times. I can only imagine how Georgia Tech felt.
The Notre Dame defense hasn't given up a touchdown in a month. Notre Dame has yet to trail in a game. They are undefeated at 5-0 despite playing one of the most difficult schedules in all of football. ESPN's GameDay will be in South Bend this week for the Stanford game.
Brian Kelly and the boys have woken up the echoes. Ranked 7th you could make a strong argument that Notre Dame is one of the most underrated teams in the nation. With Everett Golson coming into his own the offense should continue to make improvements. With Manti Te'o leading a stout defense the Irish should continue to control the line of scrimmage. It's a great time to be a Notre Dame fan. Go Irish!
WTF is wrong with me? Am I taking crazy pills? I actually agree completely here with Todd McShay's top Heisman candidates at this point of the season. Obviously my bias would put Manti Te'o at the top of the list but I can't disagree with having Colin Klein at the top right now. Klein has been huge in big victories over Miami and Oklahoma and is having a RG3 type season so far.
Tampa Bay Rays pitcher David Price twitted out this video of some rookie hazing at the hands of his teammates. See it's not all about "butt chugging" and killing people. It's about wearing throwback Olivia Newton John leotards and dancing to "Call Me Maybe" at Fenway Park. This is rookie hazing at it's finest. Not to sound gay or anything but a couple of those girls had smoking bodies.

Yeah...athletes are dumb. But I agree with Lochte on one thing. That new show "Monkey Hospital" looks hilarious.
I will be the first to admit the NFL has been a joke this season with the replacement referees butchering the games but I also have to admit this has already been one of the more entertaining NFL seasons that I can recall. Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate clearly committed an offensive pass interference that is rarely if ever called especially when it comes to a hail mary pass but I gotta love the two referees looking at one another and then agreeing to call opposite calls. Priceless.
I'm so glad I decided not to bet on this game. I was close to betting heavily on the Packers at -3. With the controversial TD the Seahawks won by 2. And Vegas erupted as expected. If you are a gambling man stay away from the NFL. The NFL is always uncertain but now with the replacement officials it's become chaos.
And just a FYI when I watched the play live I thought it was an interception but when they landed on the ground it looked to me that Golden had wrestled the ball away. If the Packers just bat the ball away we have no controversy.

How can you not root for a guy like Manti Te'o? The guy plays with his heart on his sleeve and every day he gives you his all. There isn't a better middle linebacker in the college game and the last two weeks there hasn't been a more complete college player than Manti. I know defensive players don't win Heismans but just like Ndamukong Suh a few seasons ago it's time for the best player in college to get one. So why not Manti Te'o?
By the way Troy Niklas is a maniac. I could of swore that was the Incredible Hulk shirtless at the pep rally last week.
Oh how we love thee Lane Kiffin. You know it's pretty bad when even USC grads and fans are fucking embarrassed to have this dick as their head coach. While he wasn't busy enough to throw his quarterback and senior captain Matt Barkley under the bus for the loss on Saturday to Stanford he obviously doesn't have the time now to answer any more questions from the media.
Via TheBigLead via @LindseyThiry
Is Stanford a serious title contender? They lost their star QB in Andrew Luck and 3 of their offensive linemen to the NFL and still ran all over USC. Their schedule is brutal with Notre Dame and Oregon coming up but with a stingy defense and a really good running attack they could win both. I'm not a Stanford fan but I do admire how they play the game. They have toughness. They have grit. And they have the dumbest mascot in all of sports.
Great video by the way. It captures college football and it's spirit in 100 seconds. Awesome.
I'm glad Notre Dame didn't listen to all the "experts" out there who predicted the Fighting Irish didn't have a fighting chance in East Lansing vs Sparty. Well Notre Dame kicked the shit out of Sparty in every facet of the game. That is what you call a signature win on the road. The momentum should be outstanding heading into the Michigan game. The defense will want to prove that the last two seasons of Denard going ham on them in the second half was a fluke.
Heisman favorite Matt Barkley is now 0-4 vs Stanford after USC got their dicks kicked in by the Cardinal last night. You can kiss Barkley's Heisman goodbye (less than 50% completion, 0 TDs, 2 INTs) and USC BCS Title aspirations too.
Yesterday was a great day for college football. Go Irish!
That look on Herschel's face says it all. Don't mess with the greatest college running back of all-time Matt Leinart. It won't end well.
OJ was originally cast in Herschel's spot but for some reason he couldn't make it. Hmm. I wonder why?

I was wondering to myself if there was a less root able player than Jay "jerk face" Cutler and I think we found our answer: Josh Beckett. Jesus Christ you get paid $16 million a year you think you could hustle 90 fucking feet to first base. But no. Josh Beckett doesn't need to hustle because he mows down hitters on the mound like it's 2003. Oh wait, never mind. He sucks balls now. Have fun with that contract Dodgers.

This kid is just a rookie. If Derek Jeter makes this play it's shown five million times in the next 2 weeks. But Jeter isn't that heads up to make a play like this. Manny Machado is not a rookie anymore. He's a freak. Not only did he make this great play in the top of the 9th to preserve a tie game with the Rays but then he singled and scored the winning walk off run. It's September 13th and the Orioles are still tied for FIRST PLACE with the New York Yankees! 20 games to go. It's pennant fever in Baltimore.
I'm pretty sure Gary Thorne almost shit his pants when he saw Machado fake the throw. He at least had a honey fart.
Dude. That was awesome. Not only did the masked streaker accomplish his goal of streaking on his high school football field but he managed to get away. His junk just flopping everywhere, dangerously close to getting it clipped while jumping over two fences. This guy deserves a beer. SportsCrack says Bravo. Now let's please start getting women to do this. It's instant fame ladies!
This lady masturbates to a Tyler Wilson doll every night. I'm convinced. Holy shit. I feel embarrassed for the Pig Sooie Razorback hat. What did it ever do to be subjected to be on this crazy ladies head?
Just give Mike Trout the MVP, Gold Glove, and Rookie of the Year awards already.
Not the prettiest of victories but Notre Dame fan Vince Vaughn and the rest of Irish Nation will take it. 2-0. It's all that matters. Bring on Sparty.

We got confirmation that Vaughn and Owen Wilson were tailgating like a champion yesterday. We wouldn't expect anything less from these wedding crashers. HOT ROUTE!
