Fun little side story on Regis Philbin, who, as his obituary noted, was a Notre Dame football fanatic and a loyal reader of the @nytimes print edition ... When The Times created an early Sunday edition in the late 1990’s, the publishing time was set at 3:45 p.m., with the aim of getting it delivered to the far areas of the region. One understandably unforeseen issue: 3:45 was before most Notre Dame games were finished.
