Every once in awhile you hear someone talk about the coaching fraternity. Now we have actual proof that there is indeed one in the college football ranks.

With Notre Dame's home opener kicking off in 58 days, fans of the Fighting Irish can get a head start on the 2008 season at Irish Band of Brothers. New features to the IBB Blog for this year include opponent previews from rival blog writers, opponent blog section, and Football Friday Chats.

It's good to know that other folks besides Fighting Irish fans have a beef about ESPN!

"Steamrolling through a defensive line the Wild Hogs unleashed the pain."

Oh, how the times have changed when opposing teams would just buckle stepping onto the field at Notre Dame Stadium.
