Not who I would have thought. Crazy season so far.

Of course, you are the anti-homer so...
And there are four or five of us here. Good solid people. Anti-homers! I like that. Almost as good as Fuck Joe Biden!

He looks at ND'S flaws in a vacuum. He is delusional about what a Top Ten team is. And he gives anyone ranked ahead of ND a free pass. Case in point is his poo pooing ND'S win over a ranked opponent when there are SIX teams ranked ahead of them with zero ranked wins (and only Georgia has more than 1).
You can argue that ND shouldn't be ranked higher but, not without making the same argument against other teams. He is every bit as biased as any of the homers. Just in the opposite direction. You're getting there too.
You ignore the mediocre performances against crappy 3-3 teams like FSU…so don’t tell me I don’t know how to judge…you have always been a homer so not surprised at all….a homer is a fan who can only see the good in a team and ignores all the flaws…a homer is a fan who always thinks the refs are out to get us because we are Catholic and “special”…a homer is a fan who thinks academics are holding back our recruiting of rocket scientists
Get the fucking picture?
1. I am on record many times as not being a Kelly supporter. As recently as 2 weeks ago I posted that I want him gone.
2. I understand completely that this team has a lot of flaws.
3. I have NEVER posted that academics are holding us back. Never.
4. I don't "only see the good" in this year's team (or any other year). That doesn't stop me from hoping for the best though. Until you are 100% eliminated, you are not out of it.
First ND team really followed was Leahy's last yr, the 9-1 '53 IRISH team..WatcHed the 7-0 '57 conquest of OKlahoma on TV..Have made 50 trips to Notre Dame..BY ND stds, ND is not a very good team at the moment, doesnt mean they cant get better..AND, moreso, it doesnt mean we dont give the boys who wear the blue and gold our full support, we 're fans not fairweather fans..
Did anyone really expect this team to be any better than 5-1 at the break..? Ive been critical too at times, especially gameday, and our new DC..
GO IRISH!
would be, but based on how weak it's actually been to this point expecting 5-1 or better isn't unreasonable.
If coaching was maximizing our potential and we were just losing or barely winning because how much better other teams were, then so be it. But I think anyone being honest with themselves knows that's not what's been going on. With all we've seen already, Kelly is right back to starting Coan vs USC... enough said.

However, this team is not a top 10 team if you don’t know that you’re not watching. But as always we are all entitled to our opinions.
The Big 10 is waaaaaaaay overrated.
They live in a fantasy world where the Top Ten is made up of:
Saban's Alabama Teams
Jimmy Johnson's Miami
Holtz's 1988/89 Irish
Pete Carroll's Trojans
Urban's Florida and Ohio State
Ara's 1973 Irish
Trevor Lawrence's Clemson
Florida State from the 90s
Vince Young's 2005 Texas
I'm not angry and I don't think ND is a Top Ten team. Never said they were. #11 would be justified IMO though. I don't see a slam dunk argument for Ole Miss or Iowa ahead of ND.
