you know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™
Another USC scandal.
My God.
1st it was OJ Simpson killing people.
Then it was Reggie Bush’s parents taking houses.
Now it’s some pimply faced teenager deflating footballs on the sidelines.
It’s like Grid Iron Gate or Air Pressure Gate.
In case you missed it, and you probably did based on the fact there was a little something called the Presidential Election this week, Some USC equipment manager let a pound or two of air out of the USC footballs.
Is this significant? To some with a lot of time on their hands, yes.
The idea is, less air pressure could give the USC offense an advantage. The theory is the ball is easier to throw, easier to catch, easier to hold on to.
The ball issue was discovered at halftime. The USC equipment manager was fired shortly thereafter. Coach Kiffin says he had no idea it happened and the kid admits he did it by himself.
Most people dislike Kiffin. Most people don’t believe him. He has a sullied past.
USC scored 51 points and still lost. They scored a ton in the first half, presumably with a football with a pound less of air. They also scored a ton of points in the 2nd half with a football with presumably the right amount of air.
Who cares. You don’t beat the best offense team in the country by letting a pound of air out of the football. You beat them by bringing your lunch pail on defense and cracking that ass. USC can score on anybody in the country with or without air in the football. To beat a juggernaut like Oregon, you need to lace up your jock strap and lay the wood. You need to knock receivers in the dirt, shove their faces up their asses, push them in the crowd with their mommas. You have to rush the quarterback and make him cry, make him bleed, give him an athletic tape enema.
A pound of air in a football in a half of football? I don’t think it’s a big deal. Especially if the quarterback and wide receivers are unaware of this. Maybe those interceptions in the first half that Matt Barkley threw were because the ball didn’t feel right. Maybe an interception caught by the Ducks was easier to catch because the ball had less air. Who the F knows.
And to all you haters out there. F off.
Tennessee haters. Get over Lane Kiffin screwing you. He did. that’s life. shut up.
To all you Notre Dame losers. Your team is over rated. And don’t waste my time unless you actually took a class there, which by the way, I don’t think any of you have.
And you Bruin fans? Get a mascot who doesn’t wear a dress then I’ll entertain your whiney ass crap.
And you Duck boosters. You have an offense that scores more than Brad Pitt. You have nothing to complain about except how ugly most of your uniforms are.
Air Pressure? shut the hell up. What USC’s equipment manager should have done is pull the cleats off the Oregon Duck’s shoes. Now that would have been a good start.
And that is crazy.™
