quick shout out to SC

Last night’s drubbing of Oklahoma by USC was a watershed event in college football. Fanatical football fathers in Texas will now hold their sons back a year in elementary school so they can grow bigger and faster to play for USC or Cal instead of Texas or Oklahoma.

I noticed that Matt Leinart hedged when a reporter asked him if he was coming back to USC next season. If we happen to tune into the NFL draft this year, maybe we’ll see San Francisco 49’ers head coach Pete Carroll get up from the table he’s sharing with his offensive coordinator, Norm Chow, go up to the microphone and announce, “The San Franscisco 49’ers choose Matt Leinart as the NFL’s number one draft pick.”
