I got a ND football calendar for Xmas a few days ago. I opened it and saw a sweet picture of Darrin Walls on the cover then I turned it over to see what the pictures were on the back. (Reaction in italics.)

Jan. - Robert Hughes
(Cool, Hughes beat USC.)
Feb. - ND Stadium
(band spelling IRISH, nice.)
March - Kerry Neal
(? well, they are spreading the love to different guys I guess)
April - Notre Dame Flag
(Solid action shot)
May - Darrin Walls
(Wait, he is wearing green instead of Blue like the cover)
June - Bobby Burger
(All Name team, hasn't he been gone for two years now?)
July - ND Marching Band
(very boring picture, will be a long month looking at this one)
Aug. - Robert Hughes
(Hey wait a second *looks at January* they have Hughes in here TWICE?)
Sept. - ND Fans
(Brings memories of being in student section but zoomed in too far like the band photo in July)
Oct - Kerry Neal
(Ah, let's see what my birthday month has, hopefully its Teo or Blanton... KERRY NEAL? WTF AGAIN)
Nov. Bobby Burger
(What the crap, do they have him twice so he has one picture for each year he has been gone? Why not Jerome Bettis for each month instead?)
Dec. - Darrin Walls
(Darrin, I love ya man but Cover plus May PLUS December? You ain't Miss America, man.)

Who was responsible for allowing this to happen as an officially licensed product? Wow. Walls is(was) the only starter in the whole calendar and not one is still on the team.

NCAA rules say that it can't be a current player... that is probably why so many of the bigger names arent there

Ah, thanks. I would imagine guys in the NFL have some sort of restrictions too? Isn't Neal on a practice squad? Why pick an essentially non-scholarship player?

So many questions!
