Andrew Luck is going to rape the Irish. And he's not going to wear any protection or use any lube.

Not if Teo and Gray have anything to say about it. Rees will torch their secondary too. :beerbang:

I've got a Frank Thomas starting lineup figure from 1993 (I think?) that I got signed by the big man himself at Soxfest a few years ago. I've also got a Ken Griffey Jr. figure.

Funny story about them. Back then I was working at a toy store in the local mall and my manager was a real jackass. A lot of the action figures were popular with collectors who would buy them and then turn around and sell them at card shows. This was also back when they first re-released the Star Wars figures that everyone went crazy over.

According to the company rules, employees weren't allowed to buy any products until they had been on the shelves for at least 24 hours. But when the trucks came in my manager and his buddy would stand in the backroom and go through the boxes taking out the figures they wanted to buy and hiding them instead of putting them on the shelves.

One day when he was gone I found his hiding spot and grabbed 2 Frank Thomas and one Griffey figure and bought them for myself.

He was absolutely pissed when he found out but couldn't do a damn thing about it because he knew he was just as wrong and he would've gotten fired if anyone found out. I didn't really care either way because it was just a part-time minimum wage job for me. He tried to tell me that I had to return them and I told him that I gave them away as gifts.

By the way, what's the opposite of name dropping? Because that's exactly what you did here. :smug2:

They almost lost to USC. They're not as "destructive" as people think they are. Put them in a real football conference and they're lucky to win 8 or 9 games.

usc isnt that bad...stanford is a good team...and that game actually showed how andrew luck is consistently the best QB in college football and notre dame's secondary is certainly not exceptional
