Garden State Connections
Highly touted linebacker Brendan Beal of Roxbury, N.J., is currently hanging out with USC linebacker Brian Cushing, also a New Jersey native. He attending practice with his father.
Beal is considered a top target for the Trojans, Florida and Ohio State.

Comments
The kid seems like a Cushing clone size wise. Both are 6'4 around 235.
I want him as a Trojan.

So the wife and kids and I go into the Torrance Bob's Big Boy for lunch today to get our fair share of cholesterol, and there's a bunch of oldies playing on the restaurant speakers. There's also another couple sitting in the booth next to ours, minding their business.
Then, TUSK starts playing over the speakers. My kids' eyes light up. And my 9 year-old, Natalie, overhears the couple next to us groan and say, "Oh God, not this song..." When Natalie hears that she tells me, "Dad, I think they're UCLA fans!" loud enough for everyone, including the next booth, to hear. I just laugh - and this only gets her going.
What happens is she and my other daughter, Caroline, (age 6), start singing UCLA SUCKS every thirty seconds to the song.
The wife and I try to be polite, but we can't stop laughing, either. So the kids get louder. UCLA SUCKS!
The couple tries to pretend not to notice, but by this time the entire frigging left wing of the restaurant is noticing, and all the while it's UCLA SUCKS and I glance over to see the couple next door are sinking lower and lower in their booth the whole time and it sucks for them because they know they're totally owned and then it comes again, UCLA SUCKS!
There's a guy in a far corner who's cracking up, meanwhile, and I share a grin with him because he's obviously a Trojan, while the couple in the booth is continuing to melt like the Wicked Witch of the West, and here it comes again from the kids, UCLA SUCKS!
By the end of the song, the couple is already looking to pay the check and get the hell out of Dodge, while my two kids are looking at us like they've proven something. So as punishment, I did what any self-respecting parent should do.
I bought 'em each a huge dessert.
UCLA SUCKS.

To have two under 10 rugrats I'm assuming that you didn't actually graduate in 66? or are the little darlings who rudely ruined and disturbed other paying customers patronizing a public eatery really your grandkids? Instead of giving them a big desert, I'd have given them a swat on the backside and a lesson in manners when in public.
fight on anyway.

Fight on!
