Welcome to the dead period. Basketball season is over and football is preparing for the spring. Still, there are many articles out there regarding the Trojans. Check out some of these to get you caught up in the newsworld.
- Michael Lev of the OC Register tells you which 15 Trojans to watch this spring. (Highly recommend)
- Lev also breaks down the QB situation and presents his QB Spring preview and answer key questions regarding the position.
- Ted Miller weighs in on his thoughts on the Seantrel Henderson madness.
- Joey posted this yesterday, but now-transferred Aaron Corp begins his new quest at Richmond.
- Lane Kiffin is among the field of 64 for Esquire magazine's Sexiest women alive bracket. His first challenge? LPGA golfer Natalie Gulbis. Not surprisingly, Kiffin is currently in the lead. (Kidding about not being surprised!)
- Kiffin is continuing the Mater Dei QB pipeline to USC by offering Max Wittek a scholarship.
- Paul "Oldtimer" Hoffman of SCplaybook.com reminsces the 1967 football season.
- Dan Weber tells which Trojan football players are tweeting and who they are following. By the way, you can follow Conquest Chronicles on twitter here (Paragon's account).

Nah dude
It isn’t DBD until there’s 3 guys sitting at their desks chatting on the message board running up 500+ comments
You seem to be displaying blog envy towards your Poppa Bears
For us 50+ is an awesomely number which we hardly ever reach :-P

I think I've said this before but
if Kiffin wants to acheive credibility with this group of players, he really needs to keep an open competition at quarterback. That means giving Mustain a realistic shot. I like Barkley but he needs to earn the QB job and not have it handed to him (I think he can certainly do that though). But open competition is what made the Trojans teams in the Carroll era so dominant. I’m not sure if that same level of competition existed during the later years (2008 & 2009) and it showed.

True
Mustain really got screwed in ’09.
by Julio Nievas on Mar 18, 2010 12:05 PM PDT up reply actions
I went to some practices in August
…and I thought Barkley was very deserving of the job, but there was no way that he was head and shoulders ahead of Mustain. Mustain was certainly very comparable to Pete’s guy.

also if he wants to maintain credibility,
he might want to not win this hottest woman contest :-)
Love the tag line “pretty girl, sure makes a fuss”
Did anyone notice
Helen Mirren is also beating Megan Fox? Nice for an old lady, but no way she should win that contest. As they say: something is wrong with this picture. Someone is stuffing the ballot box. Got to love Internet polls.

Erin Andrews is the fugliest sports personality out there1
I’ve seen her (no, not THAT one). . . .without makeup. She is sorry-ass looking and she has the worst wardrobe. You’d think she’d have a stylist or something.
I wouldn’t hit on her if we were both naked in a hot tub.
Kiffin to the semis!!!

“I wouldn’t hit on her if we were both naked in a hot tub.”
That’s harsh Bix! I saw her at the Rose Bowl and while she’s kind of a horsey English type with a large-ish schnog the overall effect isn’t fugly, especially with some good-time goggles!
Here’s the secret…

Yes, Julio
And yes, Agrippa!
It’s just that, for all the pomp and cirCUMstance for Erin, she’s got really nothing going for her except her . . .ahem. . .lungs and that video. Other than that, dime a dozen.
Loco, you ever read: “Even Cowgirls Get the Blues”? Tom Stoppard is one of my favorite writers (’70’s icon, you can dig, no?). Sissy Hankshaw had fictional large thumbs. . . . .nothing wrong with that.
I’m with Julio and HesPaul- Megan Fox is a total fox. I’d hit that with your johnson. (if- as it were, mine was all tuckered out AND so I could say, “I hit that!”. . . . .it’s an inside/drunken saying my friends and I say to each other. . . .we’re knaves. . . . .and rapscallions)

And thank you!
1. For the praise, I will definitely accept it. (Lord knows, when I’ll get a compliment like that again anytime soon!)
2. For not correcting me. It is actually Tom Robbins not Tom Stoppard. Although both writers are excellent and I’ve read their various works,
(Tom Stoppard wrote “Rosenranz and Guildenstern Are Dead”. Another classic, like Robbins’ “ECGTB”)

The movie adaptation of "Rosenranz and Guildenstern Are Dead" is in a word, brilliant.

Hail yeah!
(picture: a raining down of “yeahs”. . . . uh-huh, that’s what I’m talkin’ about)
Richard Dreyfus (sp) was amazing. That movie alone, cemented Tim Roth and Gary Oldman as two of the very best actors of my generation. You’re right, brilliant movie.
Me, you, gnossos. . . .we gotta get our drank on some day. Soon.

Talking about Gary Oldman
If you haven’t seen “Romeo Is Bleeding” check it out asap, a classic also starring one of my favorite actors, the stunningly beautiful Lena Olin. This movie will blow you away!
And regarding that drink, sounds like a good idea.
Romeo Is Bleeding
Directed by Peter Medak
Produced by Hilary Henkin
Paul Webster
Written by Hilary Henkin
Starring Gary Oldman
Lena Olin
Annabella Sciorra
and Juliette Lewis
and Roy Scheider
Music by Mark Isham
Gary Alper
Cinematography Dariusz Wolski
Editing by Walter Murch
Release date(s) 1994
Romeo Is Bleeding is a 1993 darkly comic police story starring Gary Oldman and Lena Olin. The film’s title was taken from a Tom Waits song. Oldman plays a bad cop on the take whose actions finally catch up with him. Olin is Mona, a murderous Russian hit woman. Despite featuring established stars (Oldman had appeared in the starring role of Francis Ford Coppola-directed blockbuster Dracula only a year prior), the film failed to make a significant impact at the box office, and received a generally unenthusiastic reaction from critics. In recent years, however, the film has gained a cult following despite its initially lackluster reception.
Lena Olin. . . . . .NOW THAT'S A WOMAN!
I have seen “Romeo Is Bleeding” and that’s a fantastic movie! (Tom Waits is one of my favorites too! Felt like that just last night)

I just have to say!
Lena Olin is a total way major nug. (which happens to be “of the highest order”, in the Bix-lexicon. which means: better than “smokin’”, better than “hottie”, and even better than “stellar”)
And get this? She’s not even part of the Esquire poll/bracketology, talk about “nice tangent” guys? This is a “FTW-Tangent”, and I’m nominating it!
“. . . And he winces now and then, and he leans against the car door, and feels the blood in his shoes
And someones crying in the phone booth. . . .”

She was on Law and Order SVU last night
Still smokin’ hot for a mature older woman, she’d beat Fox in the first round!
"I've got blisters on my fingers!!!!!!"
Swedish women. . . . .
. . . .I like too much, sometimes. Once, actually. And she is the most intense woman I’ve ever met in my entire life. It should be against the law to have that much passion, and such. Maybe it was the Romanian side, her dad defected in Sweden after a performance he gave. Rumor has it, he’s got Gypsy in him. The man could play a serious violin- and her mother was a gotdang 4-alarm fire. Seen pictures. But, Melania. . . . . . .aye Dios! She’s the poison AND the remedy. Angst und lust. Sublime chaos. . . . . until reality simply tells you to just fucking RUN!

Good stuff
Allot to be happy about for the Trojan fans. I can,t help but feel that Mustain might have been burned out by the bright lights too soon. Now he might just want too hang out in the backround. Or he just got screwed.
