ESPN.com: Someone's Gotta Win

For the first time this season, I will not be in attendance at this week's Notre Dame game. I think my presence was distracting the team just a little bit. It's as if the players could sense me live-blogging about them while they were on the field, and their expectations shot through the roof. To help the team concentrate more this week, I will be a full 1000+ miles away from them when they start kicking the crap out of the Wolverines in a few minutes. Although, I hope the team doesn't subscribe to the "Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder" philosophy.
