On Barkley

| | Comments (4) |

A high-risk, high-reward day for Matt Barkley, who threw three TDs but also had two turnovers. I wouldn't make too much of stats because there are so many variables in scrimmages, such as what unit you are playing against and what situations you are playing in. But Barkley's definitely pushing the competition.
``He's hanging in there,'' Pete Carroll said. ``We haven't seen a freshman able to do that. I'm not making a statement about what that means. I can only point to his high school background. I'm not going to say anything (about who the starter is).''

OMG, you are such a hater it's pathetic.

I wasn't there but I haven't seen any report about 2 turnovers. Just one interception and 3 tds. That's 7 tds and 1 int in the last 2 practices, compared to corps 1 td for the entire spring.

here's from the uscripsit.com site. my question is which group were Barkley and Corp facing when they had the TD drive.


- Mitch Mustain (7-of-10, 42 yards, 1 INT): Two drives with the 1s, three with the 2s and one with the 3s

- Matt Barkley (10-of-13, 195 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT): Four drives with the 1s, two with the 2s and one with the 3s

- Aaron Corp (8-for-15, 146 yards, 1 TD): Three drives with the 1s, four with the 2s

MM stats are like his deceiving 8-0 days in Arkansas. Everybody else is doing the dirty(McFadden, Felix Jones, hello?) work and MM gets the glory for an 8-0 performance.

Captain Idiot:

I see that brokenfacemask.com blog was taken down after it was revealed to have been a whole lot of lies and absurd conspiracies. The author of that blog was threatened with numerous lawsuits for libel and he immediately removed everything from that blog and shut it down permanently. That is precisely why he had been banned from USC events. He's a fraud and a liar.

And who does he have to thank for his blog being shut down after two days when it had been online for several years? The idiot captain, of course. It was only because you linked to it dozens of times that people went there and discovered his lies. It was because of you he was threatened with libel lawsuits for his lies. If you had said nothing, his blog would still be up there for everyone to read, lies and all.

Congratulations, you are officially the most stupid person on earth who believes anything on the Internet.

Broken Facemask, R.I.P.

Ha! Ha! Ha! I laugh in the idiot captain's face!
