Pure Hilarity!

This showed up in my inbox today from one of the Bruins Boards. My commentary is below each point.
UCLA going 4-8 was a good thing LONG TERM because it got rid of Bullough and Chow as coordinators.
(Right because Norm Chow is so bad and Slick Rick obviously is a great evaluator of coaching talent)"Neu" has a plan, you might not see it, but he does. Shannon not being announced is part of the plan. Can't say why it is an advantage NOT announcing who your DC is days before NLOI day.
(Is it a different plan than what he has been implementing so far? We all see how that has been working for them. If true, not "announcing" Shannon until after LOI Day makes Slick Rick look like he is running some sort of Black Bag Op for the NSA. Just his luck that could blow up in his face. And why wait? If Shannon is out there recruiting for UCLA, if he hasn't yet been hired, would classify him as a booster...so I guess Slick is back up to his old tricks...Desperate!)The team is loaded with talent and could afford to miss this year recruiting.
(We agree...at least on defense but Slick just can't coach them up...)
"Neu" remains the long term answer and solution to UCLA football.
(Uh, Huh...I hope they never fire him!!!)
You just can't make this stuff up!
Apparently this was supposedly written by a mod and not a general member. I don't visit those boards at all but this has been a solid source in the past so I ran with it.
Now that is some spin!

It is just too rich. I have never laughed at a running joke harder or longer.
A Quick Note for the Quitters
No comment from this thread will be deleted. You will have to own them when we get it turned around and beat Southern Cal. You will never ride the bandwagon when we come back. Not on BN. GO BRUINS.

You said it best....pure hilarity
And I used to think that I wanted Dorrell to stay forever….please Dan Guerrero, don’t ever let Slick Rick go!
This is so rich:
“Can’t say why it is an advantage NOT announcing who your DC is days before NLOI day.”
If the new DC really is Shannon, then there is no rationale for not announcing him….they may be having a tough time sealing the deal to get Shannon for $100k, though. Hey Rick, I hear Mike Haywood is looking for a job, and he’ll come cheap!
"The Art of Wagging the Dogs: A Bruin Journey Into Self-Caricature"
Ok, I’ll admit- I JUST made that shit up. But c’mon people! Before Slick Rick came on board as Ucla’s head football coach, I only had a smidgeon of dislike/hatred for most things fUclan and Bruin (depending on the Bruin?). My respect for them as a quality academic institution and athletic program-superpower hardly ever budged. (Got badminton, much? DANG!)
But I surely do DECLARE! The Bruin-faithful seem to be suffering from such an utter lack of self-esteem that, across the board, the majority of their fans have turned off their heads and turned-in their “Man-Cards”. They’ve always been easy targets for ridicule and parody, but with Slick Rick at the helm they’ve become a walking caricature of THEMSELVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Make no mistake about it- Coach Neuheisel’s passion-bucket of snake-oil is nothing, if not well-deserved. Their coach possesses the unseemly talent to purposely divert attention from what would otherwise be of greater importance (like, players evolving through coaching stability & fine tuning of football system/philosophy through diligent adherence to core principals, and quality recruitment of necessary personnel for chosen system), to something else of lesser significance (like, placing the onus on A SINGLE RECRUIT- and the manufactured-importance of his enrollment, and what he means as to the team’s future significance). By doing so, the lesser-significant event is catapulted into the limelight, drowning proper attention to what was originally the more important issue (the roadmap to winning conference championships and BCS bowl games).
This has seriously become a joke that won’t ever get old.

Suitable for framing!
“Make no mistake about it- Coach Neuheisel’s passion-bucket of snake-oil is nothing, if not well-deserved. Their coach possesses the unseemly talent to purposely divert attention from what would otherwise be of greater importance”
The bruins’ absolute lack of sophistication is stunning. Why they brought into “The Great Neuhuckster” and his traveling calamity show is something only a BN-Fanboy can explain away. In the next eleven long months, Neuhuckster will continue to eviscerate ucla football’s carcass, in perverse retribution for their foul treatment of Karl Dorrell.

Good guy, that Coach Dorrell
I had the pleasure of meeting him at a friend’s wedding. He wasn’t a hater, nor all “rah-rah” Bruin. He was close to being the epitome of class and manners. He wasn’t exactly “talkative”, but he seemed genuinely interested in conversations we had with others- and wasn’t hesitant in telling a joke or two. (he and a few of his buddies engaged in fraternal hacking on each other, . . .with stories of situations from their glory-days offered as proof).
And. . . .he didn’t “wince” when he found out about my rival colors. (fwiw: this was BEFORE 13-9 game). It is quite possible that, since the weddiing. . . . . .???? I may or may not have slandered his family name?

His record
may not be the best at Miami, but certainly better than Slick Rick. I can’t say the same for DeWayne Walker though :(
The funny thing is that Fucla has had better recruiting classes in the last 3 years than Auburn and Oregon.
I don’t know if coaching will change Ducla for some reason they are just Jinks, maybe it is their weird fan base.
BOOM_BOOM that was the sound of the DUCKs being shot down again in a BCS Bowl Game---I guess all that Slave Money can't buy a championship.

4 More Years
For Slick Rick! Please! It’s total schadenfreude!
Don't play F A G! Do not play F A G! Don't- (BLAST F). OH MY GOD WHAT ARE YOU (BLAST A) DOING?! I SAID NOT TO (BLAST G)!
I find it funny that you feel it's necessary to troll
after finally beating SC in basketball once in the last five tries.
Sigh...(shakes head in amazement...)
another idiot who doesn’t get it…sorry your stay here was a short one…
for the lolz
The L.A. Sports Arena seems to make the most sense for the men’s basketball team because of its proximity and its availability. The drawback, however, is that it is the former home for UCLA’s archrival USC, who played there until 2006, and is located adjacent to USC’s campus.
Center Anthony Stover shuddered at that idea.
“I don’t know if I want to be that close to SC,” he said.
Harlan, acknowledged the possibility of fan backlash from playing in enemy territory and said that was one of the reasons for the survey.
sound like a bunch old hags. at least howland has the right idea of caring to win the games, not where they’re played.
entitlement much?
