One Irish Eye Ain't Smilin'


Losing a close game in what has become a difficult season is tough on any player, but insult to injury made for an even more painful experience involving Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen early Sunday morning. Enjoying a post-game meal with parents, family members and other Fighting Irish upperclassmen following a disappointing loss to Connecticut on Senior Day, Clausen was "sucker-punched" by a fan outside a South Bend restaurant after something was said either to Clausen and/or a female acquaintance, according to witnesses. No police report was filed and the swollen eye is not expected to keep Clausen from playing this weekend against Stanford. Until the Irish resume their winning ways, however, Jimmy may wish to consider using the drive-thru.
