Notre Dame shouldn't wait to start the process of hiring a new coach
— topcheddar.com — Charlie Weis said it at his opening press conference. 6-5 is just not good enough. Not when you have more talent than every team on your schedule with the exception of USC. Not when every player on your team has been recruited by you. Not when you have the best wide receiver tandem in the ... (more) Notre Dame shouldn't wait to start the process of hiring ...

— topcheddar.com — A few bars around my house are still displaying the original UFC 106 event poster with Brock Lesnar, Shane Carwin, Tito Ortiz, and Mark Coleman. Now only one person from that poster is actually fighting tomorrow. Did the UFC not ship out updated posters? I find myself pretty apathetic about ... (more) A few thoughts leading into UFC 106

A look into the past at Notre Dame reveals that they should have followed the rule of three
— topcheddar.com — When you walk around the campus you can feel it. Even when it's not a Saturday in the fall it's in the air. It lingers with every step you take it when you get there. From those that have loved Notre Dame to those that despise it, one thing can't be denied. There is a magic that surrounds the ... (more) A look into the past at Notre Dame reveals that they ...

I have a dream
— topcheddar.com — Everybody had a dream when they were growing up. My dream was to be a professional athlete and if I couldn't do that, I wanted to cover sports in some way. It's not only my dream, but now my goal to write about sports for a living. It's what I love so I might as well reach for the stars and go ... (more) I have a dream

GSP wants to compete in wrestling for Canada in the Olympics
— topcheddar.com — You hear it from fighters all the time: mixed martial artists are the best athletes in the world. There is no real way to prove it, just like there is no way to prove that football players or decathletes are the best either. It all depends on definition and your own personal interpretation. My ... (more) GSP wants to compete in wrestling for Canada in the Olympics

Reverse Jinxing: A list of possible Notre Dame coaching candidates
— topcheddar.com — I'm not sure if it was him who invented it, but I had never heard of the reverse jinx until I started reading Bill Simmons. Even if he is not the creator, for all intents and purposes, Simmons is king of the reverse jinx. The Yankees are five games up on the Sox? Reverse jinx. Peyton Manning ...

Someone Needs to Apologize to SFU's 4th Year Seniors
— topcheddar.com — As Jamie detailed in an earlier Top Cheddar post, Simon Fraser University is off to Division 2 of the NCAA next season. I think they have a great coaching staff and will be well positioned to have some success in their conference. I’m a little more skeptical than Jamie about their potential for ...

History matters at Notre Dame and Charlie Weis' chapter is not looking good
— topcheddar.com — Whoever coined the phrase "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" must have lived before the days of college football. If someone was to come up with that phrase today they would replace "a woman scorned" with "a Notre Dame fan after a loss". Believe me, I know. I am one of those sick people ...

Fedor won impressively (again), but showed he is vulnerable
— topcheddar.com — As far as debuts go, it was as impressive as they come. There are plenty of MMA fans who know of Fedor and many who have watched his fights. But for most people, it was their first time watching one of his matches not on Youtube. Simply by him delivering a highlight reel punch that led to end ...

Shari Spencer - The Brains Behind GSP
— topcheddar.com — I feel inclined to add more to Jamie's post yesterday about GSP signing with Under Armour. This is huge for GSP and almost as huge for MMA in general.

GSP will protect his belt wearing Under Armour
— topcheddar.com — Georges St. Pierre is known for a lot of things. One of those things is the extreme tightness of his shorts that he wears in the Octagon. If you could call them shorts. They are more like spandex. Rather than wear the board shorts that so many other UFC fighters seem to fight in he has decided ... (more) GSP will protect his belt wearing Under Armour

FSU shouldn't let Bowden get behind the wheel when picking a defensive coordinator
— topcheddar.com — I remember my first car. Well, technically it was not my car, but mine and my sister's. It was a Ford Tempo that belonged to my Grandpa. To outsiders it was just an ugly little Tempo, but to my friends and family it was known as Baby Blue. We got Baby Blue because my Grandpa turned 80 and when ...
