  1. Haden brought all of this on himself – what a foolish arrogant and criminal thing to have done

    BTW – Always the ‘Nixon’ caricature – never a ‘dem’ no matter how corrupt they inherently-historically are.

  2. While were at it some flunkie for bel-air tech claims they have the 2nd toughest schedule in the USA never mind they don’t play WA or OR nah they’ve got the 2nd toughest. I guess Mora already has an excuse for losing on the 3rd @ TX A&M – I will take WA St. over them on 15th October.

    • I’ll take Stanford over them for what, like the 8th straight time? Even if they had the 2nd hardest schedule they won’t win a meaningful game.

      • They don’t play: (home) OR and Notre Dame, (road) AL, Stanford, UT and WA…..every year there’s the ‘ucla primed to explode’ and then they roll back to what they are – affirmative action politically correct program.

          • He so wishes he’d been able to land any job outside LA ….Mora….the intensity rises

          • Mora would have crumbled under the TEXAS pressure. You’ve gotta WIN there. You don’t have to win at ucla. You just have to tread. Mora was smart to stay. They’d eat him alive in Austin. He’d probably be in jail for assault already.

          • Yeah, usc values winning so much they gave the job to a coach who has a career record of 6-4, it will be 6-5 on September 4th. On the other hand he did beat UCLA, which seems to be the new obsession across town.

          • At least I don’t need to stoop to bragging about USC’s clear superiority on some little gutty slum blog. That would take a Troll.

            Since we’ve just won the Crosstown Cup yet again for the 10th time in 15 years, I’d say we value winning plenty, though ucla is obviously pretty easy for USC. Fact. Hah, hah, hah.

          • What ucla can never handle is simple classes. While they’re on summer vacation they always punch up the wins against the likes of UNLV, RICE, NEW MEX ST, SDS, etc.

            Then their oh-so-challenging classes (mommy please make it stop!) start (Football 101) and boom, the losses begin clicking in like clockwork.

            We crushed them last year and this November we’ll again send their weeping parents home with pizza stains on the newest bruin color of blue in the works. It’s a different blue every year. I hear coach Mora personally designed the blue this year. He thinks that will finally win him a conference championship. Maybe that’s why he can’t win even one.

          • Wow, it’s a filibuster by the triad of denial! Nice! I don’t think I’ve ever seen this before.
            Fill the blog with unrelated comments.
            This is obviously really embarrassing to you three, and I didn’t think it was possible to embarrass you homers.

          • Look brainac I’ll give you props per Haden but man ucla football prowess? Are you serious? Look all you’ve got is granpa peckerhead and 1 more NC (1995)…..keep on point.

          • Don’t tell me, Mushy, Mushy regaled bozo u fans about the time he had a late night dinner with Moby Di*k, at a very private table for 6?

          • Careful, careful buddy boy. Hunter Echols is the next Bruin to flip to USC…Get ready my friend.

          • You’ve been saying that for how long?

            In the last four city games UCLA is 3 – 1. No excuses Sammy – ‘Dem’s the facts and that’s what counts, not flipped recruits.

          • Right Sammy, that’s the1 bozo u win out of the last 4.

            Or to put another way, bozo u has a 25% winning PCT in the last 4 Crosstown FB games.

          • And still bozo u is 1 -3 in the last 4 Crosstown FB games.

            But the big difference is Rosen continued on in the game; Matty “Has the shoulder healed yet” Barkley had to leave the game – seems he be hurt.

            I’ve thrown the free copy of Matt Barkley’s autobiography “Sitting on the end of the bench with nothing to do” in the trash. The print was to big.

          • The only way they will go 12-4 is if they win the national championship and I wouldn’t bet the ranch on that.

        • Hey Chuck, all you have to do is beat Stanford once before the world ends and life will be good.

          • Well when we do Sammy, the Bruin fans won’t deliriously, Lemming style Stampede the playing field like a bunch first time winner hayseeds.

            UCLA holds an all time W/L FB record vs Stanford. So it’s not like UCLA hasn’t ever won vs Stanford. Been there done that as it were – Ho-Hum.

          • The dinosaurs will be around again before UCLA ever beats Stanford in football. Hahahaaa!

    • ucla will also lose to Cal in Berkeley after the USC defeat. They’re gonna be a mess with Pola pretending he actually knows how to coordinate an offense.

    • Bruce Feldman is hardly a UCLA “flunkie” and its the 2nd toughest “non-conference” schedule, which is different from the overall schedule.

      • Do actually read what you post before you hit the button? USC plays: OR, WA bel-air tech doesn’t. That equates for the 2nd toughest conference schedule? Why isn’t AZ the 2nd toughest conference schedule? Or CO? Stanford?

        • I love this response for two reasons: first, “Do actually read what you post before you hit the button?”. It looks like you’re missing a pronoun there bud. Second, Bruce Feldman wrote an article titled, “10 toughest non-conference schedules in college football”, big emphasis here on “non-conference”. You then run back here to breathlessly report to posters (who claim to give two flips about UCLA, yet a forum originally about Pat Haden has blown up to talk about UCLA) that “some flunkie for bel-air tech claims they have the 2nd toughest schedule in the USA”. In your effort to expose the injustice of such a claim, you failed to actually comprehend the full headline, which has nothing to do with the rest of the schools on the conference slate, which you’ve now twice claimed. So my question to is, do YOU actually read what you post before you hit the button?

    • Al, I think you missed the subject matter of this excellent cartoon. Misdirection again, AL? Jackie? Sam?
      So predictable you fellas.
      I didn’t see anything about Mora or WA St. or Texas Military in that cartoon, did you?
      Just heard one of the LA Times reporters on Petros & Money.
      This is going to be such great entertainment. Does Max turn rat and pull St. Pat’s Mausoleum gig to save face? Does Pat move to Seattle to hide with Petey?

        • I suspect bozo fans are grinding their teeth after discovering Coach Helton is the twelfth best coach in a 12 team league.

          They don’t need to worry because the Little Petey Pom-Pom website projects bozo u the 2016 FB NC’s

          Kudo’s to “St Pat.”

  3. HAWR-HAWR!!! A++ on the Tricky Dickky imagery!!

    wealthy Paddy Boy’s pilfering of poor kids school money makes Reggie’s loot grab seem like innocent kid’s stuff.

    Haden: at least have the guts to show your face and apologize…and leave the check for $2.4 mil on your desk when you leave, along with your card key.

    #”MrIntegrity”

    • Hey it’s Billie’s toy boy Poppin’ Fresh….hi white bread…what dorm did you live in at bel-air tech? What year did you graduate?

    • Josh Shaw could concoct “St Pat’s” Farewell to bozo u exit excuse speech and claim Haden actually donated the 2.4m to a Nigerian foundation starting a Holistic Medical Univ.

  4. The troll says we worry about Ucla too damn much, yet the idiot lives on the USC site..Beat it!

      • Did you read my post? I wrote that Bruce Feldman said UCLA had the second toughest non-conference schedule (again, different from the overall schedule), which is what the original poster was referring too. I’m starting to see a pattern when it comes to reading comprehension.

          • Talking about UCLA football, which seems to be a popular topic of discussion here.

          • i you actually READ the comments (they often don’t) you’ll see a distinct pattern of trOXans suddenly cramming UCLA into any discussion out of the blue, apropos of nothing!!

            it’s amusing to say the least! a troll’s dream! in their heads 24/7/366!!

            #RentFreeResident

          • They want to be heard by the SC crowd. It’s like Avis always wanting to know what’s going on at Hertz. The #2 complex. We’re the measuring stick, always have been, always will be.

            You think you’d catch me posting on some little gutty site, trying to chime in on bruin criticisms of big brother USC. Ya, right.

            ucla can just fall in line and if the Trolls want to fall in line over here too and try to score their monkey points, it’s just another opportunity to beat them around, like we do on the field. Like we always have. Like we always will.

        • The problem NYC is you’re not talking about RE ROI’s and/or looting Scholastic Foundations for fun and profit.

  5. No wonder why the NCAA folks liked Haden enough to land him on the Playoff Selection Committee…birds of a feather. 9 more days

  6. Let’s see, the reporter said St. Pat paid himself and his family members about $ 2,400,000 when similar charities typically pay board members little or more often nothing. Curious.
    The LA Times reporter also says that from a fund that was meant for low income kid’s scholarships $240K went directly to SoCal athletics gifts to SoCal were 4 times the amount given to any other institution.
    Strange.
    Troy is burning again (if it ever stopped)
    Can you explain that, Mr. Alvarado or will it be more misdirection?

    • Hey jacka$$ did you see my reply below to your other post per this mess?

      I’ve been harder than all to see Haden gone and the sooner the better ok?

    • We’re definitely embarrassed JM. This is embarrassing for sure. Off the field crap keeps piling up, but I don’t think UCLA wants to revisit the year in review against USC. We kicked some serious Bruin booty. Football, basketball, baseball, and everything in between my friend!

      • What about the Water Polo NC? I missed the results Sammy. Who, pray tell,won the Water Polo NC?

        Sammy, I know 2 bozo chicks cranked the beach blanket bingo, sandbox wallyball NC. Nice Sammy, that’s a heavy duty big boy sports victory.

  7. psssst, hey wolfman (i know you only read the INTERESTING comments), can you at least get a statement from Southern Cal??

    Haden can RUN from El Lobo Macho, but he can’t HIDE!!!

    #AUUUUU-WOOOOOOOO!!!!

    • IF there is a lesson to be learned here, it is; as soon as your tenure as SoCal AD starts, find the Wolfman, wine, dine and pick his mind.
      Your only chance at peace & longevity is to get him on your side.
      It hasn’t gone so well for his last two victims.
      #ComeonSwann

      • He’ll-ton should court the wolfman as well. You are dead on, wolfman makes or breaks these gueys, they just refuse to admit it.

        #Stubborn

  8. The original article was written in 2015 by someone connected to Ucla via deadspin /fox71 who writes and comments similar to one blogger here. Someone obviously is trying to tarnish the schools name again and Pat happens to be the goat on this deal..

    Sadly nothing happened in 2015, but Karma is just as bad .. Ucla is just about done anyway. Keep paying the recruits. You will get caught ..

    Signing off,

    USC 55

  9. Wow 91 comments and you can tell football season’s around the corner. Very few of the 91 are about the cartoon which is spot on.
    Until this most recent revelation I was in Haden’s corner. Most of the mud flying at him was just mud thrown to see what would stick. However this cartoon drives the point home Haden makes Nixon look like a saint.
    Now back to the name calling and schedule squabbling.
    Did it ever occur to anyone that both USC and UCLA have interesting schedules? Neither has the toughest schedule and both make good television…USC when they are creaming someone and UCLA when they are being creamed by someone…. time to squabble…
