FAN FORUM
is pushups like the students do after
each score.
This year after the first half, the
ushers came to us and said that we
weren't allowed to do pushups with
her because of a "liability" issue. They
also went to others in our section and
told them to stop.
We noticed that in the student area
after each score they continued to do
pushups after each score and that the
ushers didn't interfere.
So why can the students do pushups
after each score and the rest of the fans
in the stands not? If it was a "liability"
issue for us then why wasn't it one for
the students, too?
This is a nice tradition the students
have that no one wants to see end, but
fair is fair for all who attend games at
Notre Dame.

WANTED: BIASED BROADCASTING
When is Notre Dame going to wake
up and replace the current announcers
for our football games with ones that
truly love ND and are more enthusias-
tic when calling the game?
I listen to other schools' broadcast-
ers and they show real love and ex-
citement when their teams complete a
great play and/or score. Our announc-
ers lack this emotion and tend to focus
more on how well our opponent is
playing.
How about adding a segment on get-
ting to know the Notre Dame coaches
and players, and all of the awesome
things they do for the university and
the community? Dan Hicks is boring,
Doug Flutie played for BC and stop
bringing back Tom Hammond.
Here is a suggestion: Get Don Criqui
and Brady Quinn in the booth, and
have Tim Brown on the sideline. Go
Irish!
