It is not a conspiracy...it is karma!

PrintSometimes you just have to chuckle.
I am always amused at peoples conspiracy theories.
We have our fair share on the USC side with the issues of being penalized more than other teams. I can see where some of that might be legit but it is what it is.
But then there are times when you have to do a double take and just shake your head.
That is why I got a chuckle out of this...
Nestor warned us.
He warned the coaches too, and that was four months ago:
If I were CRN and other UCLA coaches and officials right now, I'd be on extra alert. The Trojans are going to be in an all out hunt to look for any missteps from UCLA coaches and players. We saw this happen in 2001. UCLA was in the hunt for big season (we were the program to beat at that time coming off 20 win streak seasons and great recruiting classes) when a Trojan fan leaked the DeShaun Foster/SUV story to the local press. Unlike U$C* UCLA didn't get the benefit of the doubt from the Trojan Times and rest of the Southern California's traditional media (neutered by the Trojan hype machine). We got blown up in the press, the community and nationally. Our alumni and fanbase unlike theirs demanded accountability and almost immediately soured on Toledo. We never recovered.
We have been through this before, and it is happening again. If you think that the timing of all this negative press about UCLA is a coincidence, you are sorely mistaken. This is a calculated and coordinated attack meant to create unrest among the fans and put pressure on UCLA, which as an institution is very much sensitive to public outrage, unlike that school over there.
Nestor has already exposed the main outlet for these attacks, namely the hacks at the U$C Times and the OC "Does Not" Register.
But there is a far more insidious and treacherous pawn in these machinations.
He is kidding, right?
Well, if nothing it fits...
UCLA isn't even relevant right now, so the OP thinks that 'SC would waste valuable time worrying about UCLA?
Let me just cut to the chase and not try to dissect the above...and you're wasting your time if you try yourself.
This one is easy.
IT IS ALL ABOUT KARMA!
Why?
Simple...
Slick Rick tempted the football gods with all of his posturing, his pep talks at halftime at Pauley Pavillion, his constant obsession with USC and his painful end of game speeches at the Rose Bowl. You gotta win something before opening your mouth
Pete Carroll had the press eating out of his hand until the infamous meltdown over Mark Sanchez bolting for the NFL.
He opened up practices, he had some fun with the players and staff and he always came off as genuine..nee happy go lucky.
Can you see Slick Rick doing a Game Day Commercial? (here and here)
The monopoly is over!!
Right......
He is forcing it. He is the kid in school who is always trying to get attention...you know a regular Arnold Horshack.
So, when you couple his players getting into trouble along with the putrid performance on the field the football gods just rain fury down.
I guess he can't help himself. It is clear that he hired Norm Chow just to piss USC fans off because they clearly haven't performed on the field under Chow.
All these moves are about PR.
I get it all programs have problems but its not like Slick Rick is an angel. He is a known liar and has been officially sanctioned by the NCAA for his numerous recruiting violations. I don't care how some bruin fans try to spin it...the NCAA who nailed 'SC is the same NCAA who nailed Slick Rick. They are an equal opportunity hammer.
That the MSM up and down the west coast is now calling him out is all about not taking care of job #1.......win first.
Do that and all the other stuff falls into place, then you can talk S**T.
Neuheisel is making Dorrell look like Vince Lombardi. As bad as Dorrell was he had a decent record and very few of his players got into trouble, Medlock and two players who I can remember from a house party are the only ones I can remember.
I am still laughing...
A mole in the UCLA athletic department....?!
One from USC???
Child Please!!!!

I read this too
My first thought was that there is an epidemic of paranoia and psychoses that must be infecting those guys over there. A wide-ranging conspiracy involving SC alumni, the Los Angeles Times, the OC Register, the Daily News, the Trilateral Commission, and more than likely a nefarious cabal of Obama, the Bushes, and Nixon’s ghost.
Leaving aside the narcissism and lapdog attitude that would lead anyone to credit any lame-ass college sports blogger for “exposing” anything, this really is a situation of a bunch of people who have either invested far too much of their lives into a team, or people who have a sick feeling of entitlement, reacting like a pack of spoiled debutantes when they aren’t elected prom queen.
Of course, it can’t be that any of the reporting or stories or negative press about their beloved “four letters” is legit. Heaven forbid! It’s got to be a racket to insult and destroy them.
Good grief, but those people are too much. Yes, Simers is taking an opportunity to pile on a bit, and his schtick is one of kicking someone when they are down for cheap laughs. But beyond that, all I read is stories that aren’t complimentary toward Newhizel and Ucla – but which have reason to be uncomplimentary.
Somewhere in there one of their posters said something to the account that they weren’t looking for biased pro-Ucla writers, just objectivity. Unfortunately, the people over there are so twisted and insane, that anything printed that’s even slightly negative about Ucla is automatically met with elevated emotion and viewed as an assault on their integrity.
The problem is that when a group has lost their own objectivity, they are unable to see anything except through their own twisted lens. And so, anything even perceived as negative is automatically used as proof of a conspiracy.
Those folks need to take a vacation from their hysteria and madness. But, then again, it is always just endless fun to check in and see how much farther down that tunnel of insanity they’ve fallen.
Hey, Ucla -
1. Get your own colors
2. Get your own fight song
3. GET A REAL BEAR!

Um, did he notice that
the article implicated some USC players as well? Or are they just angry that reality does not always fit into a carefully constructed narrative? In addition is the negative press designed to take away from reaction of UCLA’s 35-7 loss to Cal? They aren’t exactly in the MNC hunt this year? Also are they worried about Terry Donahue’s rep? I thought they hated him and his acceptance of mediocrity.
And, let’s be honest, SC wasn’t exactly turning out a bunch of players that agents would think were worth paying for in the mid-90s.
"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"
Apparently not, but he did intern for our new Athletic Director, get his BA in 4 years, and get the first half of his MBA paid for while at SC. According to LinkedIn he now works for an asset management company in the greater NYC area. So that’s nice.

There’s battle lines being drawn
Nobody’s right if everybody’s wrong

I think it’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep

You step out of line, the man come and take you away

BN oh little BN their leader is basically a sociopath.
Who really cares about ucla FB anyway, hey any type is better than none those PEOPLE are basically just weird. I mean how do you go around claiming Greek god and Roman leaders as your names, they are not greek nor italian so they should use something else, but I guess they are still living the FRAT life.

LOL, Right
Nestor was an Argonaut, helped fight the centaurs, and participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. He and his sons, Antilochus and Thrasymedes, fought on the side of the Achaeans in the Trojan War. Though Nestor was already old when the war began (He was believed to be about 110.), he was noted for his bravery and speaking abilities. In the Iliad, he often gives advice to the younger warriors and advises Agamemnon and Achilles to reconcile. He is too old to engage in combat himself, but he leads the Pylian troops, riding his chariot, and one of his horses is killed by an arrow shot by Paris. He also had a solid gold shield. Homer frequently calls him by the epithet “the Gerenian horseman.” At the funeral games of Patroclus, Nestor advises Antilochus on how to win the chariot race. Antilochus was later killed in battle by Memnon.

Oh....my.....god.....
I am complete awe of this. I knew those BN people seriously had their priorities out of whack. I already considered them the worst kind of sports fans – the kind that make me not even want to be a sports fan for fear of being associated with people like them. This though, is beyond comprehension.
For a moment, I thought it might be April 1, but it does appear that this doofus is serious. The absurdities of this are so astounding, that i can’t even think of a rational comment to make in response.
Makes you wonder about how our tax dollars are being used, don't it?
"Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by"

Hate to say it....
…but BN is dead right on this one. This is all the result of a Trojan-based "calculated and coordinated attack meant to create unrest among the fans and put pressure on UCLA ". Take that away, and every thing is groovy at UCLA. The players are all alter-boy clean. And the program has already turned the corner. That pistoll offense is firing on all cylinders, and UCLA has practically locked down the football monopoly in LA.
There’s really only one sane repsonse to that nasty Trojan media machine, and that is to tune out the static, proclaim the faith, and give RN a well-earned 10-year contract extension. That’ll show those guys at USC….
After all, UCLA is famous for walking the walk, aren’t they?
And Oceania has always been at war with Eurasia . . .
Orwellian indeed.
The end game
My guess for future plot developments is that it will ultimately be revealed that Neuheisel himself was a Trojan mole all along. Remember he did go to USC law school. There he was brainwashed to go into deep deep cover where he could someday come back and destroy the UCLA football program from within. This plot was so well executed that the loyal citizens of Bruins Nation were taken in and its not their fault at all that they supported a traitor at first.
Los Angeles is like Manchester. There is a red team that wins championships and a blue team that doesn't.
No, they're actually right, but it's a conspiracy of one
I actually write the entire sports sections of the LA Times and Orange County Registers. Oh sure, the papers have “reporters” and “columnists” who are seen on tv and going to games and whatnot. But I’m feeding them the lines, I’m writing the attacks, and I’m telling them where to plant the evidence when they go to the UCLA football facilities for “interviews.”
I never thought anyone would catch me, but I guess I’ve been smoked out into the open.
"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"
Shame on you for casting a cloud over the pizza delivery empire
However, I still think that UCLA can save face with a contract extension to Neuheisel. That would alleviate the “unrest” and take the “pressure” off UCLA, wouldn’t it?
I’ll get Agent Guerrero on it immediately.
I mean, that would be sure to work, wonder if they’ll do it?
"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"
So you’ve just been moonlighting as the USC mole on CGB? All this time you’ve been two-timing us (three-timing?) with the LA Times and the Orange County Register. Damn you, DC!
How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm, after they've seen Berkeley?
i want to say
Kudos to USC to plant a mole in the UCLA athletic department. That took forward thinking. BN gets more crazy by the minute.

Yeah because when I think USC
I think of the overwhelming competence of the Athletic Department. Obviously they can’t prevent the death penalty, but they can run a conspiracy that involves everyone from the Media to the UCLA admin.
Wow...
It’s things like this that make me embarrassed to be a UCLA fan….In case you haven’t seen it yet they also have a post calling out basically everyone who reported on the player suspensions…The comment section is good for a real laugh if you’re up to the task…

There are just some people who need a little perspective
They embarrass you as a UCLA fan. They embarrass me as a sports fan.
No doubt...
If you’re able to get this worked up over an Athletic program that in not way shape or form directly affects you then you have some serious issues…

You can't put sanctions on the fkn endzone! Bowls are for salad!
The truth is that Mexi-bRuin is a double agent and can be bought for a bacon wrapped dog.
You know that the whole world is against ucla FB because the Weasie put that stupid ad in the trojan times (i know thet are pro trojan because when i had my paper route in the 60s they made me wear USC colors) everyone got mad at him. He was trying to put hotels on his land but only paying for a house, said it was his lawyer discount. Plus he got caught using loaded dice and stealing the land to put the railroad through.

"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"
I would have figured that you are paying for your enterprise
with OJ Simpson’s Gold, which everyone knows was stolen from Dick Vermiel while he was weeping and hidden in a cavern underneath Phillipes French dip. They say that if you are very quiet on a full moon you can still hear the ghost of Gary Beban rattling his Heisman searching for that lost treasure.
Actually, I have Dick Vermiel in my basement, cranking out plays that I sell on the college football black market. I keep telling him the plays are for SC, he deliberately screws them up, and then I sell them on to Westwood, Oxford MS, and places like that.

All of this intrigue begs the question: What would YOU do for a bacon wrapped hot dog?

These guys are fools
I wonder if they have been reading any of the press earlier this year about USC getting sanctioned. The public perception of USC has been torn to shreds by the media. Not to mention the fact that every month after the sanctions a trophy was being removed or repossessed. Then we have Dylan Baxter get in trouble for basically the same thing that the two bruin players got busted for.
The simple truth is, the last two years the bruins have gotten into more trouble than our players have.
ucla-Sexual battery, positive drug tests, and purse snatching
USC- Disturbing the peace in the Hamptons (AKA being black in the Hamptons), driving a questionable range rover, and an intoxicated player out after curfew.
Nestor I know you like to believe that your guys are squeaky clean, but really the only team in the Pac-10 that can really claim that title is Stanford. Stanford puts the rest of the Pac-10 to shame when it comes to all the academic, and legal issues. ucla’s poop stinks just as much, if not more than everyone else’s poop. If the LA times is reporting it, it is because its a slow news day in LA sports, and athletes in trouble sells papers. Get a grip, its no big deal, your players screwed up. Maybe they will learn a lesson from it all.
What really gets me is how NESTOR doesn't have the guts to post any place other than BN.
