They've thankfully learned the difference between parentheses and a brackets, but that doesn't mean they're consistent yet about when to use either. I would actually love to raise their rating to three stars, but I pay extra for the first-class delivery, and it comes even later now than it did before, and they've supposedly taken steps to improve delivery time. Hey guys, it's not working.

As far as I know, B&G is no worse than what's available to any other college football fan. It is…read moredefinitely an improvement over its earlier editions. It's strong suits are recruiting coverage, game overviews and reasoned predictions (always a crapshoot, of course), coaches bios, descriptions of their responsibilities and assessments of their effectiveness, assessments of offensive/defensive strengths and weaknesses and player development. I think they are mostly candid and as objective as possible for writers in their employ. They generally seem to track with reporters from other entities, with exceptions, and while stylistically wanting, style can be learned. I know, I taught it. Compare them with the South Bend and Chicago Tribunes for an example of what I mean. Not everyone is a Jim Murray or a Roger Angell. What interests me less is the space given to game and player history. It is considerable, and while I understand some readers may have only recently acquired their interest in Notre Dame football and the history may interest them, I've been watching since the early 60's. I would prefer more extensive analysis of upcoming opponents. But that's just me. As for delivery, I think B&G ships on Sunday night, both expedited and regular mail and my experience (regular mail) has been that I always get the previous game's issue before the next game's played. That's OK with me but I understand if its not OK with others. Its in the hands of the Post Office, not B&G. I live in Southern California and daily get the LA Times. When ND plays USC out here, win or lose for USC, it's always front page in the sports section and not particularly over the top about USC if they manage to tromp ND or vice-versa. one side point: they loves Lou win or lose.

Dr. E Michael jones has published this monthly magazine, presumably with the intention of…read morecombatting Modernism, while espousing the traditional conservative Catholic culture missing after the changes in Vatican II. For the most part I agree with what Jones has to say. However, his allegiance to the existing Vatican, and unwillingness to criticize on little more than the local diocesan level is disappointing. The Vatican has exercised its liberalism for nearly fifty years, and the results for Western culture have been scandalous, let alone, for the growth of the Church. Yet, Jones still doesn't insist on a return to the old Latin Vulgate, or that the Pope is in a state of sedevacantism despite history at times having two different claimants of the Papal office. I agree with Jones on many things, but for whatever reason, he ignores the 2000 year history of Catholicism, in favor of the Populist position, which have shown little if any positive results. I agree with his comments that," There's no such thing as Christian materialism", and that, "the foundation of wealth is labor" However, his livelihood as an author, academic, and publicist would probably be in jeopardy, were some of his quasi feudalistic theories actually orchestrated. Also, his attack of another Catholic media personality was shameless and unnecessary. He worked with the conservative Catholic Michael Voris on the lecture circuit, but when Jones saw an opportunity to take Voris down a peg by exposing Voris'es past homosexual lifestyle he was ruthless. So, much as to write a book about Voris, probably with the intention of gaining disenfranchised Voris followers. Jones has had some cogent ideas, but he's a little off track with some of his viewpoints, and no doubt, impractical due to his ivory tower, intellectual background. Jones'es podcasts are good food for thought, but considering all the people he's conducted character assassination on, he better not have any skeletons in his closet.
