Now seriously, Braveheart -  You didn't come to a Cardinal message board and expect dewy eyed Trojan love - or did you?

We're not exactly haters but sometimes it comes darn close.  A rough ordered ranking of the teams I most like to see Stanford beat:

1A  C.al
1B  U.S.C
3    The Domers of N.otre D.ame
4    Oregon (rapidly rising due to the bandwagon fans)
5    UW 
6    UCLA

Close association with the University of Spoiled Children fans after some heinous Stanford losses caused me to briefly switch numbers 1A and 1B.  That may not be fair - I suspect the obnoxious Trojan fans I"ve met never attended the University of Spoiled Children but I keep you guys as 1B just IN CASE some of them did. 

Anyway, beating you guys (which doesn't happen as often as we like) is sweet to most of us.  And if beating the Tr.ojans is delicious then beating you dramatically at your place like Harbaugh did in 1999 is pure chocolate fudge cheesecake best served with a "why not go for two" cherry on top. 

But, hey, what did you expect on a rival's board - cloying worship?  Or to paraphrase a past coach says, "What's exactly IS your deal"?

Serious question, I wonder if the the U.S.C.  fanbase will improve when/if LA gets a Pro team?  Some of their LA crowd is ... scary.
