Seattle Theory

| | Comments (33) |

One thing I've heard recently at USC is that the Seattle Seahawks were keen to hire Jeremy Bates as offensive coordinator and wanted him to control which assistants were hired offensively instead of Pete Carroll. And this supposedly was one of the things the Seahawks told Carroll before they hired him.
Now I find it hard to believe anyone wanted Bates to do anything, but the theory is designed to explain why Pat Ruel never made it to Seattle and why Bates handpicked his offensive assistants.
In order to believe this theory, I would need to know if any Seahawks executives met Bates. If they did, than it would be impossible to believe he would have such control.

wolf is like the Good Humor Man of sports writers: constant scoops.

The Seahawks will not sniff the playoffs for years!

Pete is old news and gone. Nobody cares about the Seahawks....except for their new mascot, Brennan.

Gee, and I remember when Wolf thought Bates was the Second Coming. Guess he wouldn't talk to him either.

NOBS Author Profile Page said:

I wouldn't bet on Seattle. Bates was so-so. The other guy Kiff kept was horrible...can't remember his name. He's also a dick. Must be a pay back for Pete.

Charlie Bucket is another name for Secondhand Wolf. Why he keeps posting these inane comments is laughable. Constant scoops? Is this guy for real? I sometimes read Wolf's posts and they amount to little more speculation, cut&paste jobs from other sources, an occasionally some simple source news items. Secondhand Wolf has never in the time I've read him, produced a genuine scoop: news that no one else has. The guy is such a negative jerk that no one at SC talks directly to him. That's why other reporter's have firsthand quotes and we have Secondhand Wolf. This Charlie-bucket-of=Sh** thing is asinine.

here's another scoop: Slowthinker blows bubble gum.

Oooh Aaaah, Nice comeback Wolf, I mean Charlie-Buck-of-Sh**. Is that all you have? After all, what is accurate is rather hard to refute. Oooh so sugaar sweet!

By the way: Let's not leave out Bucket-of-Sh**'s prognostication skills:

ChuckerBucker guarantees victory tonight at Pauley South(Gaylen). oh so sugar sweeeet to own two home courts in the same city!

Nice pick Bucket-of-Sh**.

SWBJ - CBucket is his own person. It's not Wolfe. Don't let him get under your skin. His "postseaon" loophole is that UCLA made the Pac-10 tournament, which is technically the "post-season." But, he's still a doofus.

Guys, I went on a "11 step program" that has enabled me to not respond to the Bucket. I think if we all ignore him and do not respond to his inane comments, it's like if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it. Does it make a sound?

NOBS Author Profile Page said:

G man, GREAT suggestion.

NOBS Author Profile Page said:

Oh heck, one more F U Bucket of WolfSh*t.....Sorry.

Charlie Bucket Author Profile Page said:

i am still basking in the glow of Mens and Womens Basketball playing in post season....ahh March Madness.

tee-hee (placing NUBS in my Quit Bucket)

Grossos, you are acting like NUBS' mommy: "just ignore him honey!" har har!

i'll try to be nicer, guys, don't be so afraid of the ChuckerBucker!

The Donkey wonders why anyone pays attention to Ms. Charlie Bucket. The Donkey says Charlie is just a bruin gal with an inferiority complex and little knowledge of sports.

torpedoman Author Profile Page said:

Charlie Bucket also resides on the OCR blog as "TRUTH"...Someone pointed that out and so I started looking at her phraseology and posting similarities. The guy is right. The two (and probably other alias's) are most likely one in the same..
My question is why would a bRUIN sicko like that even want to live on a USC football blog? Just amazes me!

SWBJ Author Profile Page said:

So good to see I am in good company. I love Gnossos 11-Step program and the Donkeys wit, but Ms. Bucket's idiocy needs addressing and I like playing piñata with her. Besides, if Wolf's alter-ego is a Bucket-of-Sh**, then as Yoda might say, "Hmmm. Correction this one needs. A Bruin ass-kicking party, yes. Hmmm."

NOBS Author Profile Page said:

The DonKey is right....plus small breasts and seeking a sex change.

Guys, I just woke up from my nap. Did the Cunt say anything?

Trojan Conquest Author Profile Page said:

SWBJ, and other Trojans............why do you bother reading or responding to these fucla losers. I've stopped reading or responding to them some time ago and it feels great. Quite frankly, it's also getting old reading your responses to these idiots. Ask yourself, do you really care what they write? You're playing right into what they want, getting a rise out of you.

Gnossos Author Profile Page said:

TC,
You are correct, everyone should join the 11 step program and ignore the troll.

Charlie Bucket Author Profile Page said:

wow, you cyber bullies are ignoring me so much that i feel i must respond.

ignore me if you will, for i am not here solely for your amusement. and if i must absorb an occasional brutal cyber-bullying, then so be it.

i am here for the little guy. the Southern Cal fans who fear reprisal, because they don't drink the Kool-Aid and are afraid to speak out against the hypocrisy and corruption that plagues Southern Cal from its very foundations.

i am here for the truth seekers, who refuse to accept the blatant cheating and graft that are staining the good name of the Pac 10.

i am here for the nerds of the world who like me, who are short and fat and pimply, who wear thick glasses and live in my mother's basement and never dated a girl (or boy because i am sometimes gay) and are either unemployed or work at McDonalds.

in short, as long as my mother's computer works and they let me use the one at the candy factory during my breaks, ChuckerBucker will stand up to the cyber bullies of the world so that truth and justice are served.

Bucket of WolfSh*t- How dare you. ( I was trying to ignore you, but this is an outrage) Leave la la crappy tin's job at McDonalds out of this!! Or you will be banned. heh heh heh

SWBJ Author Profile Page said:

First off Charlie, no one here is a cyber bully. Most of those who lambaste you object to your asinine postings and encourage you to take those ramblings to another online community where others can appreciate them. S

Locoweed.......I already have. I'm sorry you mentioned it.

Charlie Bucket Author Profile Page said:

loco and TC, why don't you two Marys go back inside and let the boys play tackle? this is a sports blog after all, if the occasional jawing makes you feel faint, i recommend you go ask mommy for a plum.

typical Pat Robertson behavior, more concerned about telling other people how to behave, instead of minding their own actions. go read your Willams-Sonoma catalog. pishaw!

Is the Cyberdork getting a little testy. Why Charlie, I thought you were a little short and fat and pimply nerd. Guess you're just a little thin in the hairline.

It feels so beautiful not to read these comments from some loser whose whole purpose is to criticize and get a rise from others. I come on this site and other USC sites to find out information about USC. Try it for one week. At first it's tempting to read these comments, but then you realize that you really don't care what these losers are writing. One week and you too will feel great.
