I’m sure that you could make a never-ending list of tweets that bashed on Notre Dame’s embarrassing appearance in the BCS National Championship game.
But Kate Upton took it to a new level and bashed the New York Jets while she was at it. Upton’s tweet stated “It’s okay Notre Dame this happened to the Jets every week.” Now that a low blow.
It’s okay Notre Dame this happened to the Jets every week

Better yet, Upton admits that she’s a Jets fan. I give her credit for the tweet. Most people don’t try to smack talk on their teams but this year left the Jets with a pathetic 6-10 record thanks to horrible decisions by head coach Rex Ryan.
At least her loyalty to the Jets inspired a genius tweet. I don’t know if there is much good to say Notre Dame’s appearance in Monday’s game. The only positive was that they prevented a shutout unlike the LSU Tigers unsuccessful appearance last year.
I’m even an Irish fan and I enjoyed viewing these tweets, so I’ll give you a couple just for laughs.
Tonight’s actual BCS attendance is 80,120. Not sure if that figure includes the 22 missing Notre Dame starters or not.

With that TD, Notre Dame earns a participation medal.

Those “Notre Dame BCS Champion” t-shirts are going to look really cute on thousands of third world kids.

And ESPN Analyst Rick Reilly had a funny, yet not horribly harsh tweet that I just have to add.
Wow. Notre Dame’s defensive line looks like it’s on roller skates.

For those of you that don’t know, Reilly made a comment a while back about Notre Dame not being able to beat USC and that he would polish their helmets if the Irish won. But hey Rick, congrats on making those helmets so shiny! I’m truly shocked that he followed through with it.
Shiny enough for Notre Dame LB@carlo44cal to check out his Chernobyl beard… #beardgang … Ok I’ll stop. twitter.com/ReillyRick/sta…

And last but not least, the trending topic of the night may have been AJ McCarron’s girlfriend… Which ESPN showed about 100 times to keep the men interested.
Which will be greater for the rest of this game: # of ND points, or # of cutaway shots to AJ McCarron’s girlfriend?

My biggest questions regarding tweets: Where is Kirk Herbstreit’s comment? I’m in absolute shock that he didn’t bash on the horrible appearance by the Fighting Irish.
