Sorry localboy54, you are just being an "enabler."

No 54, the cops were trying to sort out a situation and one pampered jerk thought he could ignore the rules.

You never win an arguement with the man. Try these helpful expressions when dealing with law enforcement: yes sir, no sir, yes officer, no officer, if there is nothing further may I go now please.

Then, DON'T head back into where the trouble is located.

Blaming his arrest on some imagined 'quota' is really myopic of you.

Pete, are you losing control? Not the discipline one might expect from the annual preseason annointed champions. Tsk tsk tsk.

Nothing to suggest that he did anything out of line? Besides being arrested?

Smart people move AWAY from trouble, especially after assuming the position. College material, I am sure. I refer to the helpful phrases listed above.

"From everything I've read"? Believing everything you read is probably just as dangerous, dood--if not more.

Springer final thought: I believe 90% of police to be reasonable, yet 100% of them are impatient--downright rude sometimes--with those that do not follow instruction. Moving towards the source of the action instead of leaving--and being 6 foot whatever 240-380 lbs. (don't know this individual, just guessing)--make one a big target, too for a few reasons.

How many other folks were arrested in this incident--from what you have read? I mean, if they were arresting random people for their 'quota', they must have nailed 10-20 people. that or this guy has the worst luck on the planet.

don't worry, it can only take the attention off Reggie Bush taking down this program.

localboy...just noticed your comment on the OU player arrested on other T&R posting today.

Interesting.

So it's just when USC players that get the benefit of your doubt?

Oh, I stand corrected--this man is INNNNN OOOOO CCCCCENT. Not a giant dude getting in the way of police trying to do their jobs when there was already confusion and a hostile situation involved.

He DID say he was sorry, you might argue. I bet he did. Before or after he was arrested?

Remedial thinking, indeed. He made a mistake, he messed up. Stop making excuses for his thuggish, entitled athlete behavior.

Did he have his jersey on? How would the police know they were supposed to let him go?

And clearly, you were there--or you believe the thug's story before the police automatically.

SC is having some legal troubles recently. Excellent...

Elvis, you may not believe this, but there ARE actually places in the good ol' US of A where the police officers are NOT the honest and helpful people that appear on Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.

Let's also keep in mind the fact that he was arrested by Newport cops, who are notoriously terrible at their jobs.

Fight On, USC!!!

How about F' You Sir! or Go change your tampon Sir!

All these haters... I guess SC is doing something right... Like winning!

#1TrajanFan...Your next insightful comment will be your first. Keep trying...

I give a big Fight On to the true national champs who made Big Ten runner up Illinois look like a high school team

USC the team who lost to a team that had the talent equivelent of a pop warner team national champs hah stick to basketball usc it's the only thing u can beat LSU at.

True national champs would beat a forty point underdog like stanford--even with 2nd string qb.

Onepeat.

I'm not a Trojan, but this "story" is mcuh to do about nothing.
