Please, no references to long bombs


How desperate is Notre Dame to get the ’09 football season off on the right foot? They went over to Japan to play Japan’s national team, eeking out a 19-3 victory in the soon-to-be fabled Notre Dame Japan Bowl.

Actually, it wasn’t Notre Dame’s current varsity squad but an “all-star” team of Domer alum coached by former ND coach Lou Holtz who, of course, did his best to play up the Japanese team like he did Fielding Yost’s Michigan teams back in the day.

Story, here.

P.S. Love the commenters who seem more than ready to dump Weis and bring back the Lisper.

You knew it was coming...

Did the Japanese go and sit down and have dinner before?
