Yep, Notre Dame was on TV this weekend (NBC, no surprise there). Yes, they lost again (no surprise there). Nevertheless, they still make it on TV and they still rake in the money. All fine by me.
What isn’t fine is their stadium lighting. I swear, the lighting at my local high school football field is better. Watching Notre Dame on TV last week, I could have sworn that somebody got a couple of cars, turned the headlights on, pointed them at the field, and proclaimed that to be adequate.
Seriously they have a world class university and a huge income stream from football. Why are their stadium lighting modeled after your average pee-wee football practice?

OK, Frank… I read your other complaint about the NBC Notre Dame football contract and now this one. If I didn’t know better, I would say Notre Dame is growing on you.
I’m almost ready to call you a subway alumnus.
In your closet fandom, maybe you ought to consider filing a legitimate complaint about Notre Dame football. I’ll point you in the right direction with “My Biggest Complaint About Charlie Weis Getting Paid 20 Million Dollars To Win One Game…” or a potential variant on the theme “My Biggest Complaint About Charlie Weis Winning With Ty Willingham’s Players And Losing With His Own Recruits”. Oh and maybe perhaps the best idea yet, “My Biggest Complaint About The World Coming To An End Because Navy Finally Beat Notre Dame After 44 Years.”
OK, so you might be a little early on the last one.
But do you see what I’m talking about? See where I’m going with this? You need to put your new found hobby and closet love for The Irish to work more productively.
Do you realize that Congress has banned the manufacture of incondescent bulbs in 2012? Your rant on lighting is moot and compact flourescents will have to be used and they are not very bright.
