FIGHT ON ! Jerry Crowe !

Thank you, Jerry Crowe, for writing about USC's former players and current Boston Celtics World Champions, Gabe Pruitt and Brian Scalabrine. Such nice color pictures also! Both Trojans contributed to the Celtics throughout the 2007-2008 NBA season. Pruitt helped to run the practices during the season, and Scalabrine, who didn't play because he was injured, actually started some games during the season. Brian even helped to carry Paul Pierce off the court in Game One. Anything to help a fellow teammate, FIGHT ON!

More Kudos to Jerry Crowe!

Thank you to (UC)LA Times writer Jerry Crowe. He actually wrote about three USC women...soccer player Amy Rogriguez's scoring of the only goal for the USA women's team on 6/17/08 in South Korea and her possible inclusion on the USA Olympic team, Lisa Leslie possibly winning another gold medal in China and track star Allyson Felix winning a gold medal also! Mr. Crowe noted that USC has won a gold medal in every summer Olympics for the past 100 years! What a USC legacy and what an "UNBIASED" writer!

Just another "Sensational" article

When will the (UC)LA Times ever stop? Another front page "sensationalized" article about O.J. Mayo on Friday 6/13/08. There was no new information, just a seven-hour meeting mention in the article. If O.J. was a Bruin, there would have been just a three sentence mention in the "Newswire" section, if that!

BIASED? No, it's worse!

When the USC women won the NCAA Golf Championship on 5/23/08, the next day in the (UC)LA Times there was a mere mention in the "Newswire" section with no headline.

When the UCLA men won the NCAA Golf Championship yesterday, today in the (UC)LA times there was a separate article with a headline.

Not only is the the (UC)LA Times biased for UCLA over USC, they are also SEXIST!

Next, Please!

Well, O.J. Mayo has moved on to the N.B.A. So Kurt Streeter and the (UC)LA Times have found a new USC "whipping boy"...incoming freshman Lil' Romeo.

He said, HE SAID! SHE SAID!!!

He said, and I quote from Lance Pugmire's (UC)LA Times 5/31/08 article as follows: "Special agent Danny Kim in Los Angeles said he is looking into whether 'any funds or credit cards were taken or used under the foundation's name and used for other purposes.'"

HE SAID, and now I quote Lance Pugmire's opening paragraph as follows: The California attorney general's office is investigating whether funds from a sickle cell anemia charity were illegally used to pay for benefits to former USC basketball player O.J. Mayo, a state Department of Justice special agent said Friday."

I'm no lawyer, but Lance Pugmire should be sued for libel. He did not write the adjective "allegedly" before "pay for benefits", and he wrote his own judgment that O.J. Mayo is guilty of taking benefits.

SHE SAID!!! A Bruin would be given the BENEFIT of the doubt. Will the biased (UC)LA Times sensationlism ever end?

Promises! Promises!

After reading Diane Pucin's article "Draft Talk" this morning, I wonder what were the recruiting promises that UCLA did not live up to concerning "one and done" Kevin Love? Will the (UC)LA Times write five sensationalized articles about the unmet promises? Will Bill Plaschke demand "better institutional control" and an NCAA investigation? Will all of Saturday's (UC)LA Times "Viewpoint" letters condemn UCLA for any violations? OH! I forgot...Kevin Love was a Bruin...not a Trojan! WHAT PROMISES?
