A Notre Dame Team We Can Believe In

↵
↵On a scale of one to W.T.F., news that Lou Holtz will coach a team of former Fighting Irish players against the Japanese national football team in Tokyo this July ... yeah, that’s a solid nine.↵↵⇥Holtz said that over 100 former Notre Dame players volunteered to make the trip, so he and his coaching staff will hold tryouts to narrow the team down for the trip. The final roster will be announced in April. [...]
↵⇥
↵⇥Holtz watched video of the Japanese team during his trip and said he was very impressed with the coaching of the players and the discipline.↵↵I hope Hallmark develops a special “Sorry you just got cut from a team of old-timers that is definitely going to lose to the Japanese national American football team” card. That’s gotta be a rough cut list. Rick Mirer might as well not even show up.

↵The natural follow-up questions:
↵
↵* Will Charlie Weis host an international sumo wrestling tournament?
↵
↵* Will this be the most-watched Notre Dame game this season?
↵
↵* What cable package do I need to get the football World Cup?↵
