The Golden Dome, Touchdown Jesus and now digging up the dead.
The body of George Gipp, the Notre Dame football player who inspired the rallying cry “Win one for the Gipper,” was exhumed recently for DNA testing in his Upper Peninsula hometown.
What exactly will they do with the DNA? Is there a cloning lab in South Bend?
An ESPN crew filmed the exhumation for an upcoming story, but a spokesman said the network played no role in arranging it.
How did NBC miss out on this? I thought they had a Notre Dame exclusive contract. Perhaps that just covered the living? And we creep closer to Halloween.
