Cheatie Petey: the one constant in this topsy-turvy world of Trogan "Family"

Bumped. GO BRUINS. -N

Lots of things change, but Cheatie Petie is an anchor, a rock. He backs his players, no matter what. Just ask Mark Sanchez. And now, just ask LenDale White, who Cheatie Petie traded to get. According to AP ~~Yahoo Sports~~, this was Cheatie had to say last Monday:

"Carroll had said Monday that the team would see how everything fit together with White. 'He’s got a long ways to go to get back in here with this club, but we’re going to certainly wait it out and see how it does,' he said. The wait lasted all of four days."

Cheatie backed up his old pal LenDale by cutting him. According to the AP story ~~in Yahoo Sports~~, this was the comment from the Seahawks:

"'It became apparent at this time that LenDale was not ready to be a member of the Seattle Seahawks,' Schneider said."

~~Yahoo Sports~~ AP also mentioned one other teensy item. They are reporting that White is facing a four game drug suspension.

Good old Cheatie. If you play for him, you know he'll always be loyal to you. He'll always have your back. That's as he's waving at it as the door closes.

Cut an old friend

Lendale might know things about U$C that he might tell if someone really pissed him off. See Eric Ramsey and Auburn back in the Pat Dye era at Auburn, seems the money quit coming before Eric was ready for it to stop. Dye lost his job at AU, and Auburn got put on probation. Oh I’m sorry U$C runs a clean program, no envelopes of cash and “bank loans” being handed out there. My bad for bringing up such a thing.

damn I'm pissed my Niners took him

While I really badly want my Niners in the post season, I hope Mays fails out of the NFL and they find a great respectable safety who can play, not $Cum who can make a hit or two.

Don't worry

All part of Cheatie’s plan. He realized he overpaid him in college, sio he’ll give him a sucker’s contract after the Niner’s cut him.

All part of the wiley Cheatie earning his $7-million a year!

I heard on ESPN

That they were aware of White’s suspension before they traded for him. Two high profile rejections from Peat’s college coaching days. Is he burning bridges here because I don’t think that would be wise.

Interstate fraud--the big swindle

Jeff Fisher may be a southern cal product but he is smarter by far than failed NFL coach peter carroll. College dropout LenDale "4 Game Suspension" White last year had only 222 yards rushing on 64 carries for 2 touchdowns. (Chris Johnson had 2,006 yards and the quarterback, the great Vince Young had 281 yards rushing). So Fisher trades White (with his apparent addiction and practice appearance problems) plus others to Seattle for who—the right to draft Alteran Verner (#104 in the NFL draft). Talk about trading corruption for character.

But here’s the best part. Failed NFL coach peter carroll got taken to the cleaners. Talk about interstate fraud. I cannot discuss sc without become incensed; the corruption, the academic fraud, the whole thing. But sc great Fisher showed us all some real skill on that one. For me, for that nimble cunning, Jeff is Coach of the Year.

Swindle on!

Whiteless in Seattle

Seattle Times
Dateline: May 30, 2010

Director of Player Personnel, Pete Carroll, when asked about releasing his former Trojan player, LenDale White, was quoted yesterday as saying:

“Now that I don’t have the Southern Cal alumni goons breathing down my neck, I can get rid of that albatros, LenDale ’Don’t like practice, but love the ice’ White. On behalf of the Seahawk administration, our fabulous new head coach Pete Carroll said that although he’s usually pumped and jacked, he realized this move was best for all involved and that Lendale would be leaving the team, but loving the world more.”

In related news, Carroll (the Coach, not Dir of PP), said he took a pass on the opportunity to deal for other Trojans on the bubble of various team rosters. “I want to start fresh. The past was great to me, but now I’m jacked and jpumped about the opportunity to see which NFL rules I can bend, ignore, or defy.”
