Neuheisel attempts to fire the first shot...misses badly

PrintYou gotta give Slick Rick credit, he an opportunist to the core.
If there is an opportunity to get some attention he does everything he can to take advantage of it.
Here is his latest gem...
"I guarantee, if you paid any kind of attention to what's going on in college football this last week, you can see the landscape is slightly shifting," Neuheisel told fans. "A few of our guys, we want to welcome coach Kiffin to Los Angeles. We have competed with him before and we look forward to competing with him and this program again."
[...]
"We respect what USC has done the last few years," Neuheisel said.
"But there's change now. Until the new regime proves itself, we believe we have every right to claim this city."
Slightly?
Really?
Where?
That is really funny, because his "regime" has yet to prove itself in Los Angeles. With his team record is hovering around the .500 mark what exactly has he done to prove that he thinks that ucla owns the city? Heck, he has to 11-1 just to match Dorrell's record in the same amount of time...
By the way what city? Westwood?
Yes, Slick Rick beat Tennessee when Kiffin was at the helm so maybe he feels that he should be able to beat Kiffin now that he is at USC.
He can't be that stupid can he? I mean that has to be a misquote, right? Every time a read it I can't help but bust a gut laughing my ass off!
All this ulca propaganda about the bruins becoming the "Powerhouse Team" in Los Angeles is getting ridiculous. I always thought that you had to beat your rival before claiming that you are the better team...
I man come on...he had to "honor" the football team because they won some insignificant bowl that didn't even have any conference ties.
There is another phrase for this...attenion_______(you fill in the blank).
What Slick Rick refuses to understand is that even though ucla beat Kiffin last year, the talent that USC has was not their opponent in Knoxville.The "regime" doesn't play the game. The players do. So, until the ucla players beat the USC players on the field, his right to claim this city as theirs is as hollow as his head.
What is this guy smoking?
Let Slick Rick continue to think what he wants...we can let the game speak for itself. Slick Rick also thinks their "win" over Temple was their finest hour...remember they only got into that bowl because ND shut their season down declining a bowl and because Army could not beat Navy. Either two of those scenarios don't happen and ucla doesn't sniff a bowl game let alone meet the "minimum expectations" that they set for him on that other site.
Here is the kicker for me...for all the crap that Kiffin took for tweaking his opponents in the SEC you would think that Slick Rick would get some of the same recognition or notoriety.
Either he just threw his first punch across town, or he's been watching too much Jersey Shore.
Watch out what you wish for homey you could go home with your teeth in your pocket...

Could be 1 and 3 out of the box
Kansa St.
Stanford
Houston
TEXAS
Blood on the water, chum time, here come the sharks.
1-3? who are they beating out of that group?
they could very easily be 0-4
At USC we're not snobs, we're just better than you.
He's claiming football domination in LA based on... semantics and a technicality?
Wow, thats about as backwards as it gets!
Your honor
Slick Rick:
I would like to file a motion to suppress USC’s current domination of Los Angeles by illustrating that Pete Carroll no longer coaches the Trojans therefore the Ownership of Los Angeles football is hereby subject to the first one to call dibs. I am formally calling dibs at this time and would ask your honor to affix the Los Angeles football godlike status to my bruins despite the fact that we don’t deserve a god damn thing.
Judge:
Motion denied. The court recommends that you do your talking on the field if you want to “shift the landscape.”
But, your honor!
I called it first and I want it really, really bad! Lane is a poopy-head! It’s my turn! Waaaaahhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwaaaaaaahhhhh, sniffle, sniffle!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hahahaha
You completely nailed it. I think you win this comments section.

I can’t wait till SC puts an *ss kicking on fucla and slick rick gets fired. All he ever does is run his big *ss mouth he should worry more about his team and not worry about what is going on at SC. I can wait till I run in to slick rick and give him a piece of my mind

Its funny
when you look at Neuheisel he is doing the exact same thing that Kiffin did at Tennessee. He is trying to kick dirt in the eye of the conference champs, and the big dogs of Pac-10. The difference between Kiff and Neu is that Kiff actually threw a scare into them.
Yep, there are some similarities
I just think Kiff is much better on Xs and Os on both sides of the ball. Skippy is well, a lawyer playing coach.
PC felt empathy for his victims. Kiff is a cold-blooded destroyer. The matchups with Douchebaugh and Skippy are going to be great. I predict Kiff will emphatically run up the score against sU¢LA: 56-3.
2000 and 2001
Were worse than 09, but your point is still valid.
someone tell Slick Rick...
….to worry about keeping his papier-mache quarterbacks upright first before talking about how the city belongs to that school in Westwood again.

Same old, same old.
This is the same hubris the gave us the “Monopoly is over” ad, and the results for Slick Rick will be similar.

Hey everybody, look at me! Pay me some attention!
The clock is running out on Skippy Neuweasel and his baby blue/pee yellow band of cubs. He is all bark and no bite. I predict right now that Kiff runs up the score on him at the RB: 56-3. Skippy is the boy who cried wolf. Eventually, no one will believe a word out of his mouth. The morale of the story is:
Even when liars tell the truth, they are never believed. The liar will lie once, twice, and then perish when he tells the truth.
Until then, please give desperate Skippy some attention:
Reggie Miller
You should have heard Cheryl’s little brother on Dan Patrick this morning when Dan asked his views on the Kiffin hire.
He screamed and squealed like a little kid stating that this was the greates thing that ever happened to ucla. And if you were an athlete from the Southland that you would now look at ucla. LOL
My guess is that the athletes that liked ucla before
will go to ucla, and the athletes that are on the fence will actually look at each coaching staff and roster and make the decision based on that. Neuheisel hasn’t proved a thing. He is climbing back to the point where Dorrell was. Kiffin has improved both teams that he is coached in the first season. He has a wealth of talent to work with and a good start on a staff. I really don’t think the Tennessee departure is going to sway too many people. Probably won’t make a difference with anyone who hasn’t already made up their mind.
Lane and Coach O
are on a recruiting blitzkrieg right now. I fully expect several UPSIDE surprises in recruiting on signing day. We still have a lot of room left in this class.
Perhaps the coolest thing from the initial reports is that the kids LOVE Monte. George Uko actually used the word love. Monte has still got it!
Agree
But if you get a chance listen to Reggie squealing!

NO one seems to get this would be the equivolent of Mike Dunleavy spouting off about how LA belongs to the Clippers now... what a joke.
At USC we're not snobs, we're just better than you.
Yeah so I was there at the game
I would say most of the crowd went bonkers with all that talk pretty ricky said. The fb players seem pretty indifferent to it all. They were pretty focused on carrying that trophy around.
Although I will say that the same rah-rah intensity wasn’t exactly there the last 5 minutes of the second half.
shrug
Dude unless the fans were 2 sheets to the wind, I can't believe they were that jazzed, but you never know that LSD might still be in their fat cells.
Hell that Loser Reggie still can’t see the writing on the wall.

What cracks me up about Ucla and some other fans that they want USC to be given the death penalty.
Rather than actually competing against USC, ghee I wish I could do that against some of the players I lost to in college tennis. You know why should have to actually play them, hey why can’t I have someone vote to see who wins like Politics. Yah Nestor Thats the Ticket!
