How many people are the right age to remember the show “The Life” on ESPN? It was on when I was in high school and the show was pretty much ten minute segment following around your favorite and some of the most interesting athletes around and just seeing what a day in their life is like.
Alright, ESPN didn’t bring the show back but Notre Dame quarterback Ian Book sort of did Monday as he had a high school buddy film what a day is like in QB-1’s life. Watch it here:

A few quick thoughts:
- How bad-ass would it be to wake up and have a Sports Illustrated cover with yourself on it hanging over your bed? Not a photoshopped one but a real one. Hat-tip for that, Ian.
- I’m impressed with his ability to make quality eggs. I don’t think I made my first scrambled eggs until at least three or four years later in my life.
- Does anyone not have spend time on Zoom right now? Really missed the boat on that stock.
- Great job using the hand-sanitizer although I’m sure some would worry about the social distancing skills at the restaurant.
- I really want to see what one of Tommy Rees’s quarterback quizzes is like. Nerdy but sounds awesome.
So there it is – now you know what it’s like to be the starting quarterback at Notre Dame during a national epidemic.
