Forgive my college football ignorance, but could some one explain why ND has such a large fan base, or why they are hated so much? I went to Indiana for law school so I got to see some of the hate/love, but I still don't understand how they can still have such support, not being in a conference or winning a bowl game in 16 years? I can understand the reasoning for hate, since they have their own separate contracts with networks and stuff, but I still don't get how they can get those contracts in the first place.

I like Notre Dame for several reasons, but one
of them is I like to root for "church schools" or private
schools (SMU,ND,TCU,BYU, Duke, Baylor, ect..) and the service
academies.

The announcers kept talking about how the Notre Dame players had a great time during the week in Hawaii. Man South Bend has got to suck especially during this time of year because I can't imagine them having much fun there. Point is, it looks like Neuter Lame is going to keep sucking!
