Excuse Bin

I totally agree. And by the way, it's the 1st road game excuse wears thin also. Most of the players on this team have been playing organizational football for years and by now have traveled to and played on opponent's fields many times.

Kiffin is an excuse maker, liar, blamer of others, all narcissists are. He's in over his head, thanks Garrett you lazy bastard.

wolfman! you da wolf-MAN!! El Lobo Macho!!
getting down to the SOUNDS, bro!!! telling it like it IS!! i am shocked, the nattering nabobs have not attacked you yet!!

i guess a big cold dose of the TRUTH has them back on their high-heels, eh, Lobo??

keep up the stallar work, Lobo!!

I'm sick and tired of Kiffen's excuses and euphemizms since he became HC. I'm sick of him period. Lane and Monte have to go!! It's time we get someone that can manage our championship calibur team before we slide backwards anymore.

I guess he could have come out and said that Barkley and Tyler's turnovers were inexcusable but then everyone would've called him classless for throwing the kids under the bus. Dude should probably just quit and go be an OC somewhere because he either doesn't win by enough, runs up the score, tosses players under the bus or makes too many excuses.

notes...
Unlike all you assorted DUMMIES...Kiffy didn't go off and blame the loss on The Ref's (o.k....he does sound stupid saying this game was nearly a win,...yup... kinda like The Alamo). The game wasn't influenced by the ref's. Quit whingeing (and quit loading up the preseason with Teams like "The Sisters of the Poor", Minny, and her poorer sister, Virginia. Sure the "preseason" record looks impressive, but so do most OLD Hookers is Dimly lit Bars)
Coach Erickson is one of the most gracious winning coaches I've seen. Surely, he could have gotten another 7 points at the end of the game, but instead chose to run out the clock deep inside SUC territory. PILE-ING it on an opponent in the closing minutes is for DOUCHE-BAG's...know what I'm sayin?
Maybe The Pillsbury Doughboy has learned his lesson and will STFU. He lacks POISE, before and DURING Games.
"THE Groper" is playing like his dad. Way to Cough it up kid. Personally, I'd like to see him come back for a 6th year. Next years team is going to be soooo dull without Tyler and Markeith, however given your History and Tradition...I'm pretty sure someone will Step up.
Speaking of DAD...I'd like to be a fly on the wall in the room during the "COME MEET JESUS" meeting between Kiffy and Pappy.
M.I.A.....Mono & Owns...Are you boy's having fun at one of those Trojan Swordfights in The Jacuzzi?
Fite on, Yesterday U!!!
The Black Socks are "THE CURSE"

Everything about this game points the finger at the HC and The DC. We stunk in both departments and getting a Team prepared for a Road Game is what Coaching is all about.

Osweiller looked like Johnny Unitas against a very weak Defensive Secondary that didn't tackle downfield or allowed coverages to simply break down. Monte's up in the booth, what did he see? What about half-time adjustments?

Why not allow some of the very good second unit Defensive Secondary guys an opportunity to make plays and not penalties!

Any dope that read ThaiBean's post must register as a moron. Ok, Prof Slob was first!

Thai: as always you are dead on accurate!! you know these Southern Cal bums better than they know themselves!!

great question about how the normally big-mouthed chumps are still in hiding!! i think mono, lbc, and LJ are all cowering like little girls now that all our predictions have come true!!

ironically, El Lobo Macho is the only trOXan who shows any intellactual integrity depsite the Nabobs constant attacks!!

SOB is #2! Haha. Perfect!

I think the announcers got it right, when they said there was no enthusiasm on the sidelines. Kiffen is so low key its like he is asleep. Just by his nature he doesn't inspire his young men to reach toward higher goals. So they go out and emulate Kiffen, and we get mediocrity from superior players. 5 losses? Good chance, that's all he is coaching for.

SOB is #2! Haha. Perfect!

First and foremost, ThaiPussy, my Trojans wore white socks last night. Second of all, I appreciate that UCLA fans spend so much of their lives on a USC blog. It shows who's who in this city. And since UCLA can never beat SC themselves, why not rejoice when someone else does? Well... I love it!
This will be a good team this season. They moved the ball and killed themselves with turnovers putting the defense in bad situations in the heat of the desert over and over. Enjoy bRUIN geeks, lord knows you wont when your team plays the Trojans... LOL...
FIGHT ON!!

Semi-OT: I read this site from time to time, and yeah, rivalry comments fly back and forth, per the norm.

When things get racist however, (i.e. "ThaiSlope", "Beaner" "SlopeSpic", etc.) it's a little cringe-worthy. I have NEVER seen an "educated" SC fan/alum chime in or attempt to do the right thing, and say: "Hey, have some class."

I sincerely HOPE none of the racist, misogynistic homophobes who hide behind their little keyboards went to $C. If so, you're even more pathetic than I originally thought...

Cheat on!

...and this is coming from a big ol' cornfed whiteboy from OC who busted his ass to get into a GOOD school. (Nepotism, be damned...)

Cheat on1

owns...
White Socks last night??? Yea, Who said they wore anything else? I don't blame you for being PISSED off because of the LOSS. Top 10 recruiting Classes EVERY YEAR..LOWLY admission standards, Pay for Play..You'd expect more out of the program than a thorough ass whupping by Az. St. Az St. could have put 50 pts. on the board yesterday, if not for the Gentleman Head Coach. Beating up POOR SISTER "MINNY" year after year must make you PROUD (Minny has ALREADY lost to New Mexico State, and this weekend lost to the MIGHTY NORTH DAKOTA STATE "THUNDAR"!). You have the right to be pissed since you're in 3rd place in the division and are not ranked in the TOP 25 Nationally (all is not lost since you did receive 2 pts. from some blind AP Voter). That's an OUTRAGE! Not to Worry...Good Ol' Home Cooking will fix everything (hopefully).
To Quote Sir Charles..."Bad team man, Bad F**king Team"

Any dope that read ThaiBean's post must register as a moron. Ok, Prof Slob was first! Maze is #3. Another tool.

Yet again... you ignore the part about UCLA... hahahahahahahahaha

It's an SUCks Board, stupid!

And the biggest SUC(er) is ThaiBean's fat wife.

Maze: good points, i think 99% of real trOXans feel the same. things do get spirited here, but of course most educated fans from either side find NOBS' comments abhorrent.

the secret is, it is my understanding wolf purposely leaves NOBS on here for the purpose of embarrasing the trOXans who continuously bash wolf on this blog.

and of course Bruins don't want him banned either! he makes Southen Cal look so bad, he embarrasses them constantly!

and like in the Dinner for Shmucks, NOBS and his ilk actually think people take them seriously! so sad....but amusing for us Bruins!!

Why isn't Bucket posting? He must really be banned or he would have shown up by now.... strange.

Uhhhh, Thai, why are you here then??? Oh..... RIGHT..... You're a ucla fan. Got it.

@ Maze: Over the years, various USC fans have condemned the racism, profanity, and general nastiness on this blog, and once in a while someone still makes an effort, but most of us have given up. Wolf and the Daily News do not seem to care what gets posted in these comments. If I posted a condemnation of every racist remark on this blog, I would never get any real work done.

WEB, don't make any excuses for racism! If it is happening, it must be called out.
