FUCLA

We at TrojanWire like to knock UCLA off its moral high- horse whenever possible. Fortunately for us, UCLA has been making our job relatively easy. From Coach Neuheisel's questionable past to UCLA's Cadaver scandal, we've recently just had to sit back and watch Westwood tumble.
Now new allegations have surfaced claiming that the UCLA Medical Center received a $100,000 donation from a Japanese mob boss, after providing him and three other Japanese "yakuza" gangsters with liver transplants between 2000-2004. During that same period hundreds of Americans in the Los Angeles area died while awaiting liver transplants. According to the LA Times, the generous donation came from Tadamasa Goto, 65, ringleader of the Goto-gumi gang. A plaque on an entryway to a surgery office in the hospital reads,
"In grateful recognition of the Goto Research Fund established through the generosity of Mr. Tadamasa Goto."

Davon Jefferson dunks over Love as the Trojans defeat #4 UCLA.
It was more than just USC-UCLA. It was unofficially billed as Love vs. Mayo and The Battle of the Freshman. Kevin Love and OJ Mayo, arguably the best two freshman in the country, happened into the hottest rivalry in college sports. The hype was unimaginable. It didn't seem to matter much that Mayo plays guard and Love plays center, and that in all likelihood, the two phenoms would have little direct contact with one another throughout the game. In the eyes of many the game was simply Love vs. Mayo, mano a mano, and the world seemed about ready to hand a victory over to Kevin Love and UCLA.
I guess nobody told the Trojans it was supposed to go that way.
There's nothing that will spruce up your tailgate like some Bruin execution decor. This one's a special do it yourself, Martha Stewart firing squad motif. Definitely lightens up the room. For a blindfold, add tape or another household product to the eyes, to give it that realistic touch.
The game may be behind us, but the hate...it never ends.
