A New Place to Put Your Trojans

20061110_usc.jpg
The Long Beach State 49ers opened their new season in a new building - USC's new building that is - The Galen Center. But, I couldn't see the game because a beautiful cheerleader was blocking my view. Even as the Trojans dribbled up and down the shinny new court workers were waxing floors and wet paint signs hung on some walls. It's a beautiful building - the type of place that would be great for hosting Ballroom Dancing should Los Angeles ever get the Summer Olympics again. Click here to see pictures of the game>>
