Answer Monday, Part IV

Q: Why is that one song girl with the tattoos, Sydnee Hines, allowed to be a first year squad member when she already graduated from SC back in May? Both the tattoos and her academic standing violate the song girls' own policies?

A: I'm staying clear of this one or I'll be blamed for one more thing by the athletic dept.

Q: When the Song Girls participated in Swim With Mike did any of them exhibit "Elite" speed?

A: Hmmm. I don't know but maybe the Oregon cheerleaders will be invited to expand the program.

Q: When the Oregon cheerleaders were at the Coliseum were they given the evil and jealous eye by the USC Song Girls and their advisors?

A: If they were, they didn't notice because they were too busy dodging the addresses thrown at them by USC fans.

Q: Have you thought about replacing the header of your blog that currently has a cliched image of Tommy Trojan's head with the picture of you and the Oregon cheerleaders?

A: I had not thought of it, but this is the best idea I've heard in months.

Q: Scott, will you be covering the SG tryouts this Sunday? Are the press allowed and can you take photos? Will you be arranging a tailgate party for your readers who have created the group, Reform SGs Now? Will the Daily News buy a keg for our tailgate as payback to your loyal readers? Please cover the SG tryout in-depth with pictures of the candidates, interviews with the SGSC, and expose's of the corruption on display. Scott Wolf for the Pulitzer!

A: All good ideas but I did not attend the tryouts because I am currently Public Enemy No. 1, and I don't want to be blamed for any problems during the tryout process. I would, however, encourage readers to attend the final tryouts, if for no other reason, to find out who exactly is on the selection committee.
