This Blog is Going to be Deleted

Attention folks: This blog failed miserably in its original intent to bring together Knott Hall Alumni and friends. Thus, unless I hear any objections within the next few days it will be deleted.

Breaking the seal

Hey guys, TJ Pillari and his wife Quinn live in SB (across the street from my grandparents) while TJ gets his JD from ND Law School. TJ walked over and let my grandparents know, so grandpa emailed me and let me know, and then I posted here to let everyone know that Quinn is 8 weeks pregnant.

This is eventful for 2 reasons:
1) Fitzy is NOT the first Jugg to knock up a girl
2) We now have second-generation Juggs from our class

So just wanted to pass that news along. Personally, my money was on DB, with his presence as a father-figure (i.e. only breaking mirrors when losing in FIFA 2003 and not Halo), to be the first dad of anyone from Knott.

With TJ's combined past as a great soccer player and a loyal Jugg of Knott Hall, here is a picture of what TJ and Quinn's baby may look like:

Big weekend

Big weekend this weekend. Huge. In T minus 105 minutes, Matt McDonald arrives at PHL to be picked up by yours truly. After heading home to Anytown, USA, we will engage in a weekend for the ages, most notably the marriage of the two crazy kids to your right.

I expect some crazy performances, as most of the college gang hasn't gotten together all at once since last summer for Ricke's wedding. Naturally this is the first time my fiance will get to meet a good portion of the college crew. Good gracious.

There is no question that the 300 mile drive to upstate New York will be well worth the trip.

One Shining Moment

You never know what you're going to find on Youtube. I was bored at work this afternoon, so I decided to do a quick search for "Notre Dame Football". Some great clips came back for me: Rocket's two TD returns in '89 vs. Michigan. The infamous "Snow Bowl" game vs. Penn State in '92. Darius Walker's game winning TD last year vs. Stanford.

None of them can hold a candle to the following, however: Kevin Heffernan and Christian Suarez leading the Cavanaugh Chaos to the women's interhall football championship game in Notre Dame Stadium.

Did I see a Meatball sighting in there?

Things the Men of Knott Love #2: King Cobra Premium Malt Liquor

When I think "Knott Hall", there are certain words or phrases that come to mind. "Beer bong", "SYR", "Osco Brand", "Juggs", and "stomach pump" all come to mind. However, perhaps chief among them is "King Cobra Premium Malt Liquor".

I've now reached a point in my life where it costs me at least $15 to go out in the city and get a decent buzz going. Ironically, a mere three years ago this exact same feeling could be obtained for the relative pittance of $0.99 in nearby Niles, Michigan. Consider the following:

- For $1.98, you could be pretty happy and potentially pass out by 5:37 PM.

- For $2.97, you could call yourself "Logisz" and no one would question your validity until you failed to do a 62 second keg stand later in the night.

- For $3.96, you could forget your name, leave all your friends, wake up the next morning in a ditch, and have to hitchhike across a state line to get home because you didn't realize where you were.

- If you had an especially high tolerance, for $4.95 you could lose the ability to talk, come home, and piss all over the outside of your gay roomate's door without any fear of consequence.

- On the other side of the coin, for $0.33 you could get hammered off your ass, start speaking spanglish, explain how you swam across the Rio Grande to El Paso, tell a hot girl you haven't had sex "in a really long time" (i.e., never), declare your love of "frijoles", and have Fitzy rub his naked, dingleberry-laden behind all over your face before you go to bed crying.

For all these reasons and more, the Men of Knott Hall love King Cobra Premium Malt Liquor.

Cheif puts out the hate with his stream of justice

Disgraceful

In case there are those of you who don't keep up with the world of college football blogs as closely as I do, I wanted to share the below video. It was first posted at EDSBS, and now has made the rounds to various other blogs. We're getting made fun of big time out there. It is disgusting. It is pathetic. It is nearly unwatchable. It is a video of an MBA tailgate from a couple years ago. Watch at your own risk. You've been warned.
