Folks, for the second week in a row, I’m digging into the buried archive of half-written articles begun by the Pats of COVID past in order to put out some fresh, unique content as we hit the home stretch of the slow period of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football off-season (I believe the team reconvenes with actual practices this week, but I might have made that up and/or hallucinated it). So, I figured if I was going to go back to the past to get another bolt of inspiration, I might as well go ALL THE WAY BACK into the Fighting Irish past — that is to say, to the very first ND football team in 1887.
