Even though their football face-off is still a couple of weeks away, the hatred between USC & UCLA is a year-long affair. Just ask any SoCal alum-slash-current NFL running back.
(LenDale, back in happier times behind Reggie & Matt’s shadow)
And KLAA-AM’s “Sports Lodge” did just that. Roger Lodge & Dave Smith had ‘SC alum & Tennessee Titans RB LenDale White on their radio show Thursday morning, chatting about the crosstown collegiate rivalry.
To get things rolling, LenDale was told that UCLA alum & Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew had said that he would “not allow” his kids to attend the school known in some Westwood circles as the University of $poiled Children.
So in the honor of fair play, White was given the same scenario: What if his kids wanted to go play in Pasadena for Rick Neuheisel & Co.? (Audio link after the jump)
LenDale’s response? A verbal bruising of the Bruins:
“I probably would ground him until he realized that that’s the worst grief you would ever imagine about going to play. You know, powder blue. I guess enough said. Their powder blue uniforms and that ugly mustard color. I don’t know.
“UCLA sucks. It’s the worst school you could ever go to if you were a football player. You know, they never win anything, and SC dominates them, so … you gotta make your choice. If you want to get dominated by your crosstown rival where they can come on your campus and take your girlfriends and stuff, then you take that decision.“
(Audio clip can be heard here.)
Hmmm. Pretty strong smack there from LenDale. Mr. Jones-Drew, I believe the ball is back in your court. And keep an eye on your ol’ lady.
In the meantime, all the experts are expecting the Trojans to easily take care of the Bruins on December 6. Well, the last time Pete Carroll & crew came to the Rose Bowl, the Powder Blues had the Cardinal & Gold seeing red after a 13-9 upset. And Bruins LB Bruce Davis helpfully summed up the situation for a couple of ESPN analysts:
Better watch what you say this year, Lee & Kirk.

Nice hair, LenDale.

UCLA has better chance of seeing Paris Hilton at Goodwill than beating USC. Stick a fork in 'em.

Lendale's true feeling after the 2005 Fucla Game<img src="web.jpg">
11:00 am on November 15th, 2008
That fat f**k Lendale is too stupid to find Westwood, let alone get in. He needed to be in South Central with the rest of the Bloods. Good luck SuC fans because you only have a few more weeks to be fans of that sh*thole…

I think what really hurts Lendale the most about that loss is that they were one game away from tying the STREAK of 8 straight, which is owned by UCLA!

Why does UCLgAy even have football anyways when they obviously SUCK??!! Aren't they the same school that got blown out by the Mormons by 60 pointsa few months ago!! Any school from the 6 BCS Conferences that loses to a MWC team (BYU) and a WAC team (Fresno State) in the same year needs to be kicked out IMMEDIATELY!! The Cubs are not only pathetic but a disgrace which is why no one outside of the Westwood area really gives a crap about them here in L.A. I find it absolutely hilarious that you bastards lost by more points in one game than almost all the games that we lost in the past 8 years since Pete Carroll became coach COMBINED!! Why don't you losers focus on your little basketball team because outside of the Lakers nobody in L.A. really gives a shit about basketball or you guys anyways??!! While we win another Pac-10 title (#7) and play in another BCS Bowl (#7) you retards are gonna be home ranked in the bottom half of the conference ~ AGAIN!! Maybe you guys can actually learn from a real football team and do something you never do which is WIN!! Seriously, has the Ruins ever been to a BCS Bowl Game??!! As long as Pete is Head Coach at SC, you guys will always be second fiddle in this town and when we play you Girls in a few weeks we are gonna show everyone why we are not only the Kings of this city but the whole entire state & coast!!
