Beanie Wells Now Doubtful for USC Game
As the biggest game in the history of mankind inches closer still, Wells practiced for the first time since his injury against Youngstown State on Wednesday. Unfortunately that practice left him so sore he was unable to practice on Thursday morning. Just a few minutes ago, Jim Tressel pronounced hi...
Inevitable Trojan Blowout In LA Saturday Night Will Be A Star-Studded Affair
This weekend, I'm actually flying out to see Ohio State attempt to not get completely white-washed out of the Coliseum this Saturday night. (Current line, OSU getting 10.5. Not gonna be enough, methinks.) Even if this is a colossal ass-kicking, this will be my first big-time college football game I'...
Rent a USC Song Girl for $150
The only catch is that you have to fill out a request form. Of course the form requires you to answer a few pressing questions. Such as, "What do you want the Song Girls to do?" I'm sure you can manage that. In fact, there's a good chance you were thinking of what you'd like the Song Girls to do, b...
LenDale White Thinks Ohio State Sucks
Fortunately for White, unlike former USC teammate Carson Palmer—who told an LA radio station he hated Ohio State and their fans and then was forced to issue an apology— he plays in Tennessee. Which means he could probably run for Governor and be elected on the "Ohio State Sucks" platform. So don't ...
College Football Previews: #2 USC
"JP is the founder of Pyle of List, where he toils alongside 3 men that are superior writers, passionate sports lovers and respected friends. He's a USC alum, college football enthusiast and Pac-10 apologist. He also contributes to National Lampoon's Zaz Report but isn't responsible for any of thei...
UCLA Calls Out USC in Full-Page Los Angeles Times Ad
Give Rick Neuheisel credit, he's not dodging the competition. He's already announced he's making a run at snatching Snoop Dogg away from USC and now he's pointing in their direction in newsprint!. Who said papers were dead? Not to be outdone with ancient relics of communication trash talk, USC imme...
College Football Previews: #10 Texas
At long last, we enter the top 10. Your author is Peter Bean of Burnt Orange Nation. He's also the author of The Eyes of Texas 2008. You'll be happy to know that the above picture of Jenna Bush rocking the longhorn sign sent Muslim hearts spinning because they believed it was a sign of Satan. Oklah...
Pete Carroll Laughs at Nick Saban's Piddling $4 Million Salary
Because according to the LA Times, Carroll made $4.4 million in the 2006-2007 school year. This makes him the highest paid college coach in America. At least with verifiable numbers. You'll recall that when Alabama signed Nick Saban prior to last season there was much hand-wringing over a college c...
LA Times Expose: 25% of USC Football Players Have Jock Itch
Jock itch is actually the subject of their article. ESPN is so pissed that somebody else gets to write about USC's genitals. Expect a full-hour feature on Mitch Mustain's ballsweat on College Football Live tomorrow. Until then, we all feel tailback Travon Patterson's pain: "It burns," he told the L...
Stu Scott: Born On The Street And Hard As Hootie
Fresh off this year's Jimmy V Classic post-event celebration in Raleigh, N.C, Stu Scott and some other famous, not-so-famous and ubiquitous "celebrities" sauntered out into the night for a karaoke croon-fest like no other. Scott was the star, though, unleashing a set of pipes that show why he's des...
Mike Williams, Former First Rounder in 2005, Cut By Third Team
What's worst of all about that, the Titans cut him. And the Titans have the worst receiving corps in the NFL. As if that weren't bad enough Williams was released by the Raiders last October. Since being drafted by the Detroit Lions as the 10th overall pick in the 2005 Draft, Williams has been relea...
When It Comes Right Down To It, Maybe Cheerleaders Really Are Just A Bunch Of Brazen Exhibitionists
Late last night Deadspin received an email with the subject " Former USC Song Girl Sarah Carmona" which, even though harmless enough, can only mean something salacious would be attached. True to form, the accompanying emailer described the pictures yanked from Ms. Carmona's Facebook page which inclu...
Your 2008 USC Song Girl Scouting Report
The USC Song Girls have already given us so much. We've thrilled to their daring poolside athleticism, shown concern over their reckless abuse of our natural resources, marveled at their bikini greatness, investigated their booties and laughed at their sheer, utter blondness. They even write for ESP...
Carson Palmer Loves Ohio State Fans Now
We all know he was being honest when he said Ohio State fans sucked. You can agree or disagree with the statement but at least it was honest. Now, predictably, Palmer has backtracked from his statement and isued a new one regarding Ohio State and their fans. Have we really reached the point where qu...
Camby Trade: Mark Warkentien is no Garry Kasparov
So the Denver Nuggets traded the only guy on their roster who sometimes kinda-sorta plays defense — Marcus Camby, the 2007 Defensive Player of the Year — to the Los Angeles Clippers for...wait, what was that again? The option to exchange second-round picks with the Clips in 2010 and a $10 million tr...
In Which I Develop A Sudden Interest In Track
Our infatuation with University of California pole vaulter Allison Stokke was real at one time, but it seems so childish these days. Simply put, we're over you, Allison. We've moved on (the restraining order helped). Yes, new romance is in the air: Meet Jennifer Mueller, a freshman sprinter at USC w...
Dancing Men Scare Busch Stadium Bleacher Crowd
If we know your typical Busch Stadium-weekday-night-game crowd well enough ... there were some very confused fans in those bleachers. And lots of angry letters to the Cardinals front office....
Douchetastic USC Walk-On Video Is Neuheisel's Gain
In what's already been something of a frustrating day for Southern California, a story gaining traction is that UCLA football coach Rick Neuheisel has been using the above video as a way to convince recruits to stear clear of USC, presumably because Brennan Carroll, the son of head coach Pete Carrol...
Drinking Helmet Enhances Signs, Eases Their Display
The drinking helmet is not only a good sign complement. It's a must. [The Sports Hernia]...
O.J. Mayo Reportedly Accepted Gifts And Cash In High School And At USC
The WWL is all over its report this morning on "Outside the Lines" featuring the claim from a former associate of NBA prospect O.J. Mayo that the player accepted $30,000 in cash and gifts over the last four years from a Los Angeles-based event promoter....
