Wednesday Flakes Brings You Summer

Summer is here and so is the weather. If you’re not hot, you’re spending too much time inside.

Enjoy it because we only have 59 days until college football starts. On August 26th the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame take on the Midshipman of the Naval Academy. They will battle in Dublin, Ireland.

You folks remember the great country of Ireland, right?

After that, cancel all plans for the rest of the college sports calendar.

Enjoy!
