Everyone loves The Muppets — except Disney. Their management of the beloved puppets since purchasing them from the Jim Henson Company in 2004 has left much to be desired. There have been some highlights: 2011’s “The Muppets” is a masterpiece that changed my life when I saw it in theaters at age six. The songs were both incredibly delightful (“Life’s a Happy Song”) and devastating (“Man or Muppet”), and it confidently updated The Muppets without losing their original charm. However, Disney sadly didn’t know what to do with the momentum of that film. The sequel, “Muppets: Most Wanted,” was decent enough, and the 2015 mockumentary sitcom “The Muppets” was an admirable albeit misguided experiment that didn’t find its footing fast enough to avoid cancellation after season one. Since then, The Muppets have been banished to Disney+ limbo. And to add insult to injury, The Muppets area in Disney’s Hollywood Studios was razed last year. So, all in all, it isn’t easy being green under Disney.
Over the past few years, I’ve observed a phenomenon within the food service industry which I’ve coined as “Chipotle-ization” (trademark pending). To me, this refers to the singularity of Americanized Mexican food collapsing in on itself and forming a black hole of copy-and-paste franchises serving the same ingredients in burrito, taco or God forbid, “bowl” form. Luckily, with restaurants like Barrio, another new contender on Eddy Street popping up, we’re beginning to see the light at the end of the long dark tunnel of slop bowls.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish men’s basketball team took on the No. 24 ranked Louisville Cardinals in a road battle at the KFC Yum! Center and suffered a 76-65 defeat. The result drops Notre Dame to a disappointing 11-12 on the year and 2-8 in the ACC, while Louisville improves to 16-6 and 6-4 in the ACC. Suffering yet another ACC loss, the Irish have now won only one of their last nine games and sit very near the bottom of the ACC.

Notre Dame is no stranger to the Super Bowl. Over the years, the Irish have had 75 players appear on Super Bowl rosters, going all the way back to Red Mack in Super Bowl I for the Green Bay Packers. Several other legends stand out as well: Joe Montana, Joe Theismann, Alan Page, Ricky Watters and Jerome Bettis just to name a few. The Irish have had Super Bowl champions the last two years as well: quarterback Ian Book was a member of the Super Bowl LIX champion Philadelphia Eagles while linebacker Drue Tranquill was a member of the Super Bowl LVIII champion Kansas City Chiefs. The tradition continues this year, as the Irish have two players in the Super Bowl, both members of the Seattle Seahawks: safety Julian Love and defensive lineman Rylie Mills.

“Then put your little hand in mine … ” The alarm goes off. Again. Didn’t I do this yesterday, you think to yourself? Out the window hangs the omnipresent gray permacloud. The class rotation has become a habit by this point in the semester. Time passes slowly. Every day is the same. Sure feels like “Groundhog Day,” doesn’t it?
On Monday evening, the Saint Mary’s Global Education Office virtually hosted Petra Rivera-Rideau, associate professor of American studies at Wellesley College and expert in reggaetón, for a lecture on world-renowned artist Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, also known as Bad Bunny. Rivera-Rideau used her 2026 co-authored book, “P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance,” as an outline for her lecture of the same name. With Bad Bunny’s sweep of awards at the 68th Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony hosted the night before and his upcoming halftime performance at the Super Bowl LX, it’s no wonder Haggar Welsh Parlor was a full house.

In a 2026 college football predictions article published in The Athletic, Irish beat writer Pete Sampson forecast the following: “Notre Dame formally notifies the ACC of its intention to withdraw from the league and enters into a scheduling partnership with the Big Ten/SEC to fill out its missing football scheduling inventory. The rest of the Irish sports shift to the Big East.”
The recent appointment of abortion advocate Susan Ostermann to director of the Liu Institute is astonishing coming from a university dedicated to the mother of an unplanned pregnancy. And the decision should be viewed as none other than a slap in the face to every woman here.
