Hitting the Line Hard on Trojans, Robinson

In response to Keri Corkwood’s letter last week: She’s right. I would rather watch USC football. Watching that program get shut out was entertaining! I don’t know if it was the confusion among the coaching staff and players or the endless repetition of their fight song that I enjoyed more. Get over it, USC, embrace a modicum of humility. You are not the only football school in Los Angeles any longer, merely a school with a football program. Besides, Keri, you live in Irvine!

Three tips for USC and its fans:

1. You can’t live solely on past glory days forever.

2. Stop drinking wine made from sour grapes.

3. I would say wait for basketball season, but the Trojans don’t have John Wooden and glorious UCLA tradition.
