Carson Palmer Might Need Security

There are a few things you just don't do in life: 

1) You don't piss into the wind.

2) You don't curse in a church.

3) You never hit a woman. 

4) And, exclusively for Ohio residents, you don't bash the Buckeyes.

Well, Carson Palmer's comments were seen as treason by much of the state of Ohio. Apparently Carson's relocation to Ohio from the sunny-surf state of California back in 2003 was supposed to rid him of his ties to his alma mater, USC.

Carson never got the message. 

And I quote, "It's amazing to hear what those guys think about that university, and what they think about that football program and Tressel and all the crap I gotta put up with being back there."

Wow! Imagine the "onions" on that guy.

I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that the only reason he's still alive is because he is the quarterback of the home-state Cincinnati Bengals. And he's actually pretty good.

I guarantee that if John Kitna would have said anything remotely close to the tongue lashing that Carson just dropped on OSU, he would have been burned in effigy.

"I just can't wait for two years from now when SC comes to the 'Shoe and hopefully we'll have a home game that weekend and I can go up there and watch us pound on them in their own turf." 

Now that is school pride!

The USC Trojans' football family is the closest knit in all of college football. Or least neck-and-neck with "The U", down there in Miami. 

"I'm really getting sick of it and I just can't wait for this game to get here so they can come out to the Coliseum and experience LA and get an old-fashioned Pac-10 butt-whoopin' and go back to the Big Ten." 

Not only does he have enough school spirit to start a fire, but Palmer has enough pride in his counterparts to diss the oldest football conference in America.

Gonads, my friends. Gonads!
