My Name is Booty

I'm sitting here on my ass watching My Name is Earl, season I of which I picked up yesterday. The show has alot to say about karma, and I am hoping to assist my own healing process after the typically bizarre Michigan State--Notre Dame result. Unfortunately, you can never quite make up for a loss, especially when your team blows a 16 point lead in the last 5:00. Beating Michigan will make me feel better, but with the ridiculously good Mario Manningham scoring five touchdowns in two weeks, I'm thinking I might be waiting a while for that. Meanwhile, I'm looking forward to ND getting trounced by USC, +/or losing a heartbreaking BCS game. I would settle for ND getting passed over for a BCS game while Louisville or Oregon. Go Ducks!

Earl update: Earl has an ex-girlfriend whom he broke up with by faking his own death. She makes figures out of paper mache (sp?), much like the witch doctors voodoo-ing Notre Dame to victory. There's a lesson here, or something. Perhaps Jason Lee holds the key to Notre Dame's downfall. Hmmmmmmmmm. Earl learned about karma from Carson Daly. In 2002 Carson Palmer taught the Irish, um... something, 44-13. Apparrently that something was how to lose by 31. Next year USC beat them 45-14, and the year after that USC won 41-10. Something went wrong last year, as USC pulled an improbable win out of their Trojan asses. Strangely enough, Notre Dame scored 31 points, losing 34-31. Karma? Or something deeper......? Can John David Booty stick it to Notre Dame, or will the Trojan karma come back around to bite them in the ass?
