Shank laments the lack of interest in a
particular college football game.
Did you know that the Notre Dame Fighting Irish are coming to Chestnut Hill to play the Boston College Eagles Saturday at 3:30 at Alumni Stadium?
Of course not.
Nobody knows.
I knew, but only because they announced it at the end of the Notre Dame - Georgia game on Saturday.
Shake down the thunder and dropkick me Touchdown Jesus through the goalposts of life. Our region’s abject apathy about this game is the latest demonstration that we are the worst college sports town in America.
There’s no shame in this. Not in my book anyway. I love the fact that we have evolved into a pro sports-only town. The Four Horsemen of Boston sports — the Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics, and Bruins — provide more than enough fodder to fill these pages and fuel four all-sports local radio and television stations.
He then goes on to rue the lack of college football. Typical of Shank to try and have it both ways.

Of course, he doesn't mention that Boston College has little or no parking available, it's THE WORST ENVIRONMENT for a college football game anywhere in America.
Sure, buy BC Season Tickets, you get to park in Springfield and take a shuttle in.
