10. A great story, joey. Bear with me.
My father grew up in Trenton, NJ. Played hoops at Bama. Scholarship. But he was an Irish motherfucker. Rooted for Notre Dame until his last breath. Even when they played Bama for the National Title in 77? Football. Anyway, a Field of Dreams moment. I moved to Iowa. He would visit to go to a Hawkeye game, yearly. One year, 2005, I started giving him shit on how overrated the Irish were and how they were pussies not to join the Big Ten. A fistfight almost ensued(my wife broke it up) and he left the next day without us speaking. He died a year later. I never got to take it back. I still fucking hate Notre Dame. Fuck em.
