I no longer despise USC. I respect them. They're comfortable in their togas. Football supremacy is in their DNA and they make no bones about it. They embrace it unabashedly, they're damned good at it and they're positioned for another era of "being USC." They will fight on. And on, and on. While some of us fume with envy. More power to 'em.
Life is too short to waste on crap football.
