Quote Of The Day
Here's Carson Palmer's much-discussed quote on Ohio State.
"I cannot stand the Buckeyes. It's amazing to hear what those guys think about that university and what they think about that football program and Tressel and all the crap I gotta put up with being back there.
``I just can't wait for two years from now when 'SC comes to the 'Shoe and hopefully we'll have a home game that weekend and I can go up there and watch us pound on them in their own turf.
``I'm really getting sick of it and I just can't wait for this game to get here so they can come out to the Coliseum and experience LA and get an old-fashioned Pac-10 butt-whoopin' and go back to the Big Ten.''
Love It!
carson will always be my favorite trojan.... what a guy.
I would feel better if Carson were going to play for Troy the next 2-years, then we might whip Ohio State. But, otherwise, I believe SC will be an underdog in both games.
Fight on, Carson Heisman!
I will be there to see USC kill the little ladies from Ohio.
OUTSTANDING! I just heard the interview on ESPN. Stick it "The Ohio State". Carson, FIGHT ON!
Buckeye fans are screaming on the Sports Blogs. To them Carson is the worst player in the NFL right now.
But I remember Texas guys were saying the same when the had to go to Ohio and play the Buckeyes a couple years back. Ohio has the worst, most disrespectful fanbase outside of the SEC.
Props to Palmer for saying something.
Caesar, true. They actually have the entire SEC attitude - insults, bragging, spite; and the Ohio fan base remain unjustifiably convinced that they are the best thing since sliced bread and everyone else is garbage. It is a cover of course for feeling like crap about themselves but they are so unreasonable that they push it on everyone and demand that everyone exalt them. If we (on the WC) are critical and sometimes whiny about our teams and schools they take it so far in the opposite direction.
So glad to see someone who knows and cares say in effect, "You guys are annoying and you are going to get smacked so shut up. Go SC, go PAC 10. We're better than you." It took Carson Heisman to do it and it should get people around these parts up to support SC and the PAC 10.
