Good job on getting that letter published.

There were a number of letters published today critical of the Toejams’ and Petey’s lack of class.

It’s good that the general public is made aware that not everyone is hypnotized by The Humanitarian.

I wonder what ol’ SMQ and his SEC Circle Jerk crew think of that. Too busy comforting one another, I’m sure.

Seriously, having a 13-0 Utah team again shows how stupid BCS is, that a 12-1 team will get the stupid-ass crystal ball. Someone needs to take charge, shake down the NCAA and the BCS and institute a real championship.

The added benefit? Once U$C chokes (just like they do in March), ol’ Cheatie will have to shut the f*ck up.

I also enjoyed the letters discussing Cheatey Petey feeling the heat on the recruiting trail. Looks like his word is no longer gospel.

But, why did you take it so easy on Cheaty?

I continue to watch in disbelief at the classless nature of Pete Carroll during USC football games. From the obvious teaching/condoning/encouragement of helmet to helmet contact, to the whooping it up after every score or big play, to the occasional non-handshake walk away after his few losses…this from a man who also flashed the "choke" sign at an opposing kicker when Carroll was a professional coach.

I understand he has done some things in the community and saw the 60 Minutes piece. My take is that this is done primarily to offset his otherwise classless nature. Would JoPa employ this type of behavior? What about Ben Howland, or even the greatest coach of all time, John Wooden? All of these coaches have or had reserved reactions after wins – and always shook hands and had good things to say about their opponents, even after losses. Pete? "I’m not sure there is a team that can beat us?" he claims – obviously overlooking Oregon St.

Most importantly, what does this teach our kids? It’s OK to thumb your nose to sportsmanship, to show up opposing players by "celebrating" big plays, it’s OK to play dirty. After all, when you’re a "rock star" in L.A., as Brent Musberger exclaimed during the Rose Bowl telecast, ANYTHING goes. Just ask the ex-Raider fans and "long-time" USC fans who have been celebrating Pete’s near-decade old run.

Stay Classy Pete.
