Default Playing days at Notre Dame

I was at my sisters house last week and she pulled out some of these photos of me playing at Notre Dame. Truthfully I never look back at these pictures and I have not been back to Notre Dame for 12 years. The reason being is I'm now 40 years old,but in my heart I'm still a kid. With all the changes to to school and stadium I feel like I won't recognize the place if I go back. To be honest with you I'm scarred that it will finally hit me that I'm getting older and I'm not ready to go there. I still know N.D as the place I have visioned in my mind.Anyway, here are some pictures of me in football and baseball, as I can only wish I could go back and relive those days. I would do a lot of things differently (like not break my angle ),but I still had a blast. I will always love my school and I appreciate those of you who have said kind things about me.

That's ankle not angle. Also, the man you see in the backround of the kickoff return photo just happens to be Rodney Culver. Rodney, was killed in a plane crash while he was with the Colts. He was one of the nicest guys you could ever meet and it was an absolute shame that he had to go like that. Man, that is one young man I wish all of you could have known.

That was Tony Brooks I believe. He was a moster running back and his "claim to fame" was that Ricky Watters and Tony were sent home the day before the U.S.C game for missing another mandatory meeting. Thank God we still had Mark Green and Anthony Johnson back there. We were loaded.

We were just talking about you the other day...Jimbo and my fellow coaches in the HHEFL are planning a "tailgate demonstration" day at one of the home Notre Dame games...it would be a thrill to have you at the tail gateing party with us. Tim Young is making a stand for our MFCA/HHEFL banner and we plan on setting up about 4 boards in the Notre Dame parking lot about 3-4 hours before game time. We are also looking at doing the same at a home Purdue game...You are welcome to join us as is anyone who wants to make the journey to South Bend...we have not set a game date yet, but we are working on it....

P.S. I am glad to know you...you have something a lot of people don't...you were a piece of Notre Dame history...40 or not...I would have gave anything to play one down on that field....

Matthew Culp
