    I disagree once again with you. Just because Quinn knows a more NFL-ic system doesnt mean he's very polished. All what JR has to do is learn his system, and thats it. I say Quinn has as much of a bust potential as any other player, not QBs specifically. The pros is a different game than the college one, so any player is far from being a sure thing. The defenses are going to pressure you, the defensive backs have amazing athleticism that will pick a lot of INTs, the speed of the game is much faster. Like I remember that Quinn got a heart attack twice against a more NFL-ic type of defense against LSU. One was when he saw pressure getting to him and he just spun and started running backwards like a scared cat or something, that doesnt work in the NFL my friend, and the other one was when he saw a linebacker blitzing at him, he just threw a pass right to Zenon that got picked, even average QBs dont make those kinds of mistakes. Those above mentioned things dont make him look very polished for the NFL...

    Oh, come on. I'm sure it was all in good fun. You know, like those USC football players that started a white supremacist Facebook group, White Nation, which had a picture of black person in handcuffs under the caption, "arrest blacks before they become criminals." But, hey, at least they were thoughtful enough to warn anybody who might be offended, "This group is not for the faint of heart. All members are atheletes of Caucasion (sic) descent. DISCLAIMER: In no way are the following memebers (sic) intolerant of others, we are just doing our duty of protecting the Arian (sic) brotherhood". ;)

    By the way, which USC fraternity was it that threw a US-Mexico themed party several years ago with warning signs and barbed wires?

    Glad I can provide you with facts since you seem to do nothing but read headlines and believe you know something. I have talked to AD personally about the effigy hanging and believe me, it wasn't taken as a joke.

    Initially the story to which you refer was all in good fun and an inside joke started by two coaches who happen to be black. If you had read the article in any paper you would have read that the picture and caption placed on that website was NOT done by Clay Matthews but rather a non-USC student who hijacked the site at a much later time. The black coaches and many players of all ethnicities knew this to be an inside joke. This is a situation of using poor judgement on Clay's part by taking an inside joke and making it public on the internet and I hope he receives some kind of punishment for it. He has apologized to the student who found the site and placed one of her own in protest. Several players have come forward to say they knew it was a joke and they weren't offended in the least. You better believe that locker room humor goes on in southbend too.

    As far as the fraternity, it was Alpha Epsilon Pi. Rather than sweep the issue under the rug, it was dealt with directly and here's a link to the specific information. I imagine you'll enjoy it since it also came from the Daily Trojan.

    Wow. There was a town hall meeting, where only 30 students attended and the fraternities seemed to blow off the meeting, especially the one that started the controversy. You sure showed Alpha Epsilon Pi.

    Somehow, I doubt he'll get punished.

    I mean, if an SC football player can get away with violently assaulting another student at a party and then shout that he owns the police and doesn't get punished for that, what makes you think this player will. I think that same player assualted another player the following year, and didn't get punished for that either. Or, what about the SC players that pushed 70 something year old WSU coach to the ground, or the SC players who spit and punched WSU players in the tunnel. Those players didn't get punished either.

    The problem is that PC doesn't have moral authority to make judgements about cases like that, since he's been involved himself with some controversial jokes and pranks that showed poor judgement.

    See, you're the type that could have the Playmate of the Year in bed with you and still find something to complain about. So until you're willing to bring these same comments to the USC chat boards, then I'm done with you. You aren't worth the cable that brought your lousy smack to my computer.

    Tiger fans deserve better than to watch this pathetic pseudo verbal sparring continue.

    Enjoy your new training facilities, they look incredible and have fun at the games this year. See you in October........or rather you'll see me kinda' like Jimmy will be seeing Rey Rey, Cush, and Galipo. :hihi:

    To answer your question, post #3 was the first to mention SC, then LSU @ ND came into the picture at post #19 and before you know it, bitter was smackin' the city of NOLA. It went downhill from there. I have asked bitter numerous times to come to an SC forum but I haven't seen him yet. :nope:

    Regardless you're correct and I apologize for the lack of LSU props as I am just a guest here and as such, always have one foot in the banned graveyard.

    Thanks for being so patient. If SC and LSU are playing each other in January I understand I'll be at Hurricane's tailgate..........or was that Nutria's??..........or maybe it was tiga's. :confused: Us blonde Cali Girls have a tough time remembering where we belong. :hihi:
