Answer Tuesday!
Time to answer some questions in the pre-training camp edition.
Q: winforever said:
Did you run into Petros Papadakis at media day? Were there any Petros stories? Remember last year him and Caesar went at it (or Caesar went over after P).
A: I did run into Petros. He was doing some type of webcast with Steve Physioc for the Pac-10, since he can never turn down any job. I did not witness any arguments or hear of any problems, like the one a couple years ago, which is good because Petros was missing his usual band of lackeys this media day although he did frequently hide in the Pac-10 control room where staff types were willing to suck up to him.
Q: USC'87 said:
Who has accomplished less in Los Angeles during the past two years, David Beckham or Posh Spice?
A: That is a tough call. Considering Beckham scored on a free kick against Barcelona, that's one more thing than Posh has accomplished, so I give him the lead.
Q: The Coach said:
How is Patrick Hall's eligibility and do you think he will be able to play at USC this season?
A: Hall needs to successfully complete some summer classes before he can become eligible.
Considering how the Spice Girls had a very successful run of reunion shows at Staples Center in December 2007, I would say Posh Spice has accomplished more than David Beckham in Los Angeles.
USC87 and Scott..........how about keeping the soccer and girl stuff separate from the SC stuff.
I'd call Becks vs. Posh a dead heat right now.
Both drew crowds to their respective venues and if Landon Diva Donovan is to be believed then Beckham's going-through-the-motions performances could be considered the sporting equivalent of lip-synching
Soccer sucks.
Posh wins. The David Spice goal was in a "friendly", right? Isn't that just basically organized grab-ass with bleachers and beer concession?
Good point about the Spice Girls shows at Staples.
Posh wins in a landslide.
