The Gooold Sheet

The venerable betting publication, the Gold Sheet, picks Stanford to defeat USC, 23-22. Stanford’s won its past 14 home games straight up but is only 6-8 against the spread. “USC’s speedy cast of WRs will present problems for just about any foe,” the Gold Sheet says.

  1. Kudos to USC for possessing some great young receivers – I wish we had these guys over at UCLA. Funny that earlier Mr. Wolf had criticized USC and claimed the receivers were the team’s weakness.

    • Thanks, Brett. I hope you repeat the stellar performance from last week. Keep up the good work, and soon enough, bruin fans will forget who Beban was.

    • Dear Brett,

      My brother-in-law is a lifelong UCLA fan, but he told me last Sunday that he has officially given up hope of you learning how to read defenses. Can you say anything to cheer him up?

      • Message to your outlaw brother – don’t give up hope! The season is till young and the Heisman is within my grasp. With my athletic ability I don’t need to learn to read a defense as I can just run around and hope to find a hole… kinda like my friend Charlie Bucket.

  2. I get my gold sheet in rolls at Costco. Very soft. Not sure if it is the same gold sheet that Wolf is talking about, but probably just as useful…..and that is a lot of bull sheet.

  3. Hmmm, the Gold Sheet. Is that like Gold Bond Medicated Powder? What is your favorite feature Wolf, the cooling action or the soothing action?

    Btw, great insight about the wide receivers. The Gold Sheet must have watched hours of game footage to unearth that gem.

  4. It is not just the Gold Sheet, it is the venerable Gold sheet, which means exactly zero. Fits Wolf perfect.

  5. Venerable: accorded a great deal of respect, especially because of age, wisdom, or character. This is the exact opposite of all things Scotty.

    • They covered at least twice
      (1) 28-14 against ucla in 2010, and
      (2) 50-0 against ucla in 2011

        • Maybe I should double check the line on the 2011 game. I know UCLA sucked, but I doubt the spread was over 30 points.

      • Your buckets have really rusted. They covered at least twice like Custer got wiped out by a couple of indians or that we ‘edged’ ucla in 2011.
        At least twice? Your research wins the understatement award for this century. Actually they covered 17 times… 5 times in 2010, 8 times in 2011, 3 times in 2112, and once out of 5 games in 2012.

        2 is to 17 as ‘at least’ is to ???? (excerpt from the Miller’s Analogy Test …required for all aspiring graduate students).

        Do not fret about having to pull out all the stops in order to pass the 100 post mark. Just post “Yawn”, which seems to work by a certain stimulating poster.

        • LarDog, Sally Snarls pet gerbil, pedantically increases his length by .000001 mm. SUCCster’s can’t wait for LarDog’s next insipid lecture.

    • I assume that credibility was never your forte.

      You must ‘Wow’ ‘um at cocktail parties.
      So far, the Sarkinator is 1- zip.

  6. Gotta put a plug in for Joan Rivers, who I was never a fan of, but she reminded me of the SUCLA posters– a little too caustic. But in reviewing some of her jokes it did remind me of a few of our wonderful SUCLAs:

    “I went out with a ucla guy once, and he was so stupid that in a restaurant he ordered a giraffe of wine. When we left the place he saw a sign that read ‘Wet Floor,’ and so he did. He later told me that he went in for a hemorrohoid exam and they found a brain tumor.

    • Nasty, nasty repartee Newman. Your version of Rivers wit suffers from stupor J. Rivers was always funny and right on point.

      Which leads me to my point – that your Mommy practiced skull binding on you in infancy into late childhood. People call you pinhead for a reason.

  7. We only had 23 net yards rushing last year against Stanford……but I suspect that we’ll exceed that figure this weekend, and it’ll fun to watch the battle in the trenches…….

  8. Time to boycott this so-called litter box, thanks Stanford44 at least you got one thing right. I’m thinking Trojan fans boycott this blog for a week by not posting, maybe the week of the Colorado game.
