This past weekend I was part of a family outting to the new Meadowlands Stadium (aka Giants/Jets stadium). It is one heck of a nice looking place with its new stadium smell and such. We were there to watch the Navy vs. Notre Dame football game. Wow what a great match up that was! …. well not really. ND got stomped but it was still fun to be there. Here is a little backstory for you. My Fiance attended the university of Notre Dame for her undergraduate degrees and I have been a fan of the schools football team by default since we started dating. Here is the catch. My grandfather and his two brothers all served in the Navy during WWII. Grandpa is still alive and kickin’ around out in California today but my two great uncles both gave their lives in the line of duty. You can imagine now how torn I may have felt in deciding just who to root for.

Well a good time was still had by all. Next years ND vs. Navy match up is going to take place in Dublin, Ireland. Thats a lot better than New Jersey huh?
So… what did you do this weekend?
