The prized sideline pass at the OSU-USC game…

I’m sorry this is off topic, but I had to bring it up.  How could you expect your team to be focused on a huge game when you have Snoop Dogg handing gatorade out on the sideline?  I guess the USC AD has 150-200 sideline passes for this weeks game in the Coliseum.  These passes will go to former players (OJ Simpson, please), administration, rappers, movie stars, and who knows who else.  Maybe Lauren from the Hills, just as long as Heidi isn’t there.  I’m not mad at USC, I am just saying I would rather have my players worrying about who they are playing on the field not who they are going to high five after a TD.

Who could we get on the BYU sideline?  Donny Osmond?  David Archuleta?  Larry Miller?

Here is the articles link from the Los Angeles Times:

    My favorite part of any home game is when the donor coordinator guy takes us down on the sideline. We don’t talk to the players or anything but the game is so much more real on the sidelines. TDs and great plays are so much more exciting and it is fun to see yourself later that evening on the highlights.

    Ya they were talking about this this morning on the cowherd show. Mooooooo. Pretty crazy. I have sideline passes to the game on saturday, but they are for the ucla side. Lame-o.

    Looks like the Snoop D-O double G needs to learn to catch with his hands and not up against his body…

    Actually, having Larry Miller on the sideline would be fine for the Cougars. He kicks butt on the Jazz players when they loaf.

    As for USC, it’s a sign of stupidity and arrogance that their AD would mix in celebrities and turn a big game at the Colosseum into a Roman circus. Remember Apollo Creed? Where is Pete Carrol during all of this? I’m not impressed with him anyway. What an ego…

    I don’t like Ohio State or the Big Ten in general, but Go Buckeyes! Well, maybe not… It’s hard to be a Western American and not want the Trojans to crush the little tree nuts, or whatever those things are.

    By the way, isn’t it good to be a Cougar? How about a Trojan (the Roman soldier kind), Bruin, Bulldog, Gator or a Bear? I can get into those. But here’s what I got from Wikipedia on the Ohio State mascot:

    Aesculus glabra is commonly known as Ohio buckeye. It derives its unflattering common name from the disagreeable odor generated from the flowers, crushed leaves, broken twigs, or bruised bark.

    Let’s think again… Cougar, Ram, Falcon vs a Horn Frog (gotta love TCU for that) or a stinking tree nut. I’d say USC gets a 3 point advantage just for their mascot.
