Around the (Ric’s) Corner

Today, like every day, is a good day to Fight On.  Fall ball starts in two days.  The third season of the USC Trojan Outsider Podcast will be available for your listening pleasure September first.  That is unless Pitts and I get so angry or excited at what happens in fall ball that we release one sooner.

This season during our thirty minute tirades that comprise the bulk of the Outsider we would really appreciate your thoughts and comments.  Not that we will agree with them or not call them stupid, but we value your ears and minds.

Please contact us through this new and improved website that you are on right now or on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-USC-Outsider-Podcast/118662974890542?sk=info or through Twitter http://twitter.com/USCOutsider.  We’ve made it very easy for you.  As you may have heard in season one and two we do have a rudimentary way of taking calls during the podcast. If you truly have something remarkable to share with us even if it’s just to make us laugh until we have to step outside the studio because we think we’re going to vomit (which happened to me during Season One) feel free to touch base.

It was brought to my attention in the off-season that it was not polite of me to refer to Monte Kiffin as “Old Man Diaper”.  I was also advised it was not keeping with true Trojan tradition to have personally nicknamed Pat Haden “That Ice Cream Social Piece of Sh!t”.  One of our boldest and oldest listeners asked me if I felt I could say what I wanted about our latest coaching staff and AD because I graduated from USC.  That answer was yes.

Here are some more fun facts about my approach to the upcoming season:

I love USC Football.

I’m feeling positive about this year’s defense.

I think Coach Kiffin will be a very good leader moving forward from this whole NCAA debacle.

Having a good running game and healthy offensive line is on my early Christmas list.

Marc Tyler’s comments were funny and I have said much worse things when tipsy (just listen to a few episodes of Season Two of the Outsider).

I love naming names of our guys who do well during the games.  I love naming names of guys who don’t do well during the games.

I would like to party with the Oregon Cheerleaders.

Notre Dame is slime and should lose all of their games in every sport until our sun implodes and destroys the solar system.

The Kappas have the hottest sorority on campus and if you think you have a hotter house send me and Pitts pictures.

I can’t wait to see what washed up half-wit previously unemployed broadcast journalism majors they hire at the Pac 12 network.

Touchdown Trojans, Ric
