Pat Forde Visits Notre Dame Fans’ Midsummer Night’s Dreams
Last night was the Midsummer Night, so all you Billy Shakespeare nuts and soothsayers know that it’s a big night for storytelling and future-predicting. As such, Mr. Forde has laid out a clever and entertaining (as always) look at a few of the predictions that the Bard might have made in his day. He goes to great length to quote from Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, even using some of the words to echo comments about a few college football programs.
And no Forde article would be complete without a Notre Dame comment. What does he say? Well, it’s all good news. Forde thinks that Will-Speare would predict that the Irish will get into a bowl next year. Even though he says Notre Dame will lose that bowl, he still thinks they’ll play well enough to get to one. I leave you, as William and Pat left you in their works of art:
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber’d here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream …”
