Adam Maya is a clown

If any of you ever had a doubt about who owns (literally and figuratively) the newspapers in SoCal, just look at this installment from Adam Maya in the OC Register. I will not link to it because I don't want him to get more traffic, I am sure you can figure out how to find it if you want to comment on his latest ass-clownery.

The title of his latest gem is "36 Trojan Football Players Who Could Start For UCLA".

What prompted this worthless garbage? An article from TWO MONTHS AGO, also in the OC Register, about Ten Bruins who could start for U$C.

Why does Adam feel the need to come to his team's defense? Everyone knows that U$C has stockpiled talent over the last few years. It's really not news if they could start at UCLA (dog bites man), but the fact that UCLA is getting more players who could play at U$C is a bit more newsworthy (man bites dog), isn't it? Those U$C players could probably start at a bunch of other schools (which makes you wonder why they're trOJies...$$$$). Getting pretty desperate with these articles, eh?

It's just that Adam forgets a major point, clearly illustrated by our own CRN: we could have gotten a lot more of U$C's recruits...if they could read or write.

Pretty soon, these players will realize what everyone else knows: that Cheatie recruits them so that they won't go to other schools...he has no interest in their future. And they'll start going to other teams.

Enjoy it while it lasts, Adam...hope you'll be wearing a helmet when the hammer falls.

Shouldn't that list come with an asterisk?

I mean, how many of them will they be able to keep post-Death Penalty?

I liked the article

from the perspective that it’s one more data point regarding how far Dohrell let the program’s recruiting slide. It’s 10 this year that could start at SUC, and probably only 4ish or so when Neu took over. I hope he does this every year, as the trend will almost surely show us closing the talent gap with the sucsters.

With 11 starters on defense and offense

any maybe a kicker and punter, how does that add up to 36 possible starters? I think at most you would have 24 starters…. Am I missing something

Thatls another way just$c* cheats

They have 18 guys on the field at a time on offense and on defense. That really helps in terms of double-teaming, although it is difficult to hear if you’re on the far side of the huddle.

Well, there are 7 officials

And we know who owns them, so they must be getting counted, too. That leaves just a few more starters to account for…

What's funny

is he somehow thinks any of the defensive backs could start over Verner at CB. What is he smoking? Taylor Mays didn’t play CB last I checked, and that’s the only DB that should be in the same sentence with Verner.

Isn't it Adam Moya?

Not that big a deal, but the Mayans were some pretty special people. Which Adam clearly is not.

We all know SC stockpiles talent that could start anywhere else. That is what prompts them to say things like, “We still think we’re the better team” after losing in a National Championship game in your own backyard. It is also why they have twice refused to shake hands with the other team after a game.

The news cough Adam cough is HOW they manage to stockpile that talent. If you matriculate in South Central you probably do believe it is because the players would honestly rather sit on your bench than play somewhere else. But, if you’ve been reading the investigative reporting going on around the country the last couple of years you’ll know it really involves a lot of looking the other way.

If you can honestly take pride in that. Well, it’s your life.

It is Maya

but no relation to any kind of civilization…except the one that got fooled by a wooden horse.

But hey, what do I know. I’m just the 800 lbs bruin in the room.

Adam Moya

is a pathological, lying, scum-sucking jackass who couldn’t write his way out of a paper bag with help from Hemingway and Mark Twain.

He’s the same piece of crap who tried to trash Norm Chow earlier this year, isn’t he?

Don’t read him. It’s the best form of demand for better quality.

BG83, just go ahead and let it out

If you hold it in, you’ll get an ulcer. Go ahead and say what you feel.

Sorry…I just find these unqualified, dishonest “journalists” very irksome.

Actually, you have shown you're a much better writer.

The Hemingway – Twain analogy is a good one. My favorite two Twainisms, alas both paraphrased. First: “It may be possible to have a perfectly happy home without a cat, but no one will ever know.” Second (and this from an opera person): “Wagner’s music is really much better than it sounds.” I like those.

Also, feel free to chime in on Brian Doh! when the spirit moves you.
