During the pregame festivities at Notre Dame Stadium, sophomore tight end, Blake Ayles, posed for a picture with some Irish fans, kinda. He jumped into the background of the picture and saluted a couple of goofy domer fans with a double bird. Unfortunately for Trojan fans, Ayles’ on field performance was less of a “F-off” to Notre Dame and more like a “I’m playing with my thumb up my ass.” Your one reception for 10 yards doesn’t permit you to be a douche.
Hilarious? A bit. Classless? Exactly, and it is something I would expect from trash talking, Golden Taint (but then again, he would have back it up on the field).
So the only question that remains is: “When will the written-for and totally contrived apology be set for Mr. Ayles to read?”

I love it. He wasn;t targeted more than once, I don’t think. He is like the 3rd TE. I think it’s funny. Had it been a more prominent player, it maybe would’ve not been.
