Thoughts On Carson Palmer, Buckeyes

By now, you have likely heard about the recent radio interview with Carson Palmer in which he discussed his "hate" for the Ohio State Buckeyes. The audio can be found here, but if you do not have the time to listen, NCAA FanHouse breaks down a few quotes.

I cannot stand the Buckeyes.

It's amazing to hear what those guys think about that university and what they think about that football program and Tressel and all the crap I gotta put up with being back there.

I just can't wait for two years from now when SC comes to the 'Shoe and hopefully we'll have a home game that weekend and I can go up there and watch us pound on them in their own turf.

First, I find it incredibly convenient that Palmer chose to spout off on an LA radio show, as opposed to one in Cincinnati. You know, the town that his team resides? Given that Palmer has, what, one winning season in the state of Ohio, you would think that he would have a little more of an understanding of the way things work in Columbus.

I also find it funny that he "can't wait" for the game in two years. You know, the one that will be against a Buckeye team that will see about 80 percent of this season's starters graduate and/or leave for the NFL. The Buckeyes have set all kinds of draft-based records on players being selected to the next level, so it seems that they're doing something right.

Buckeye fans can at least be happy about the fact that Mr. Palmer has given an entire state some bulletin board material for the next football season. Something tells me that even Browns fans will use this one to build up a little more animosity against the black and orange and incarcerated. Thanks, Carson!

yawn....................

USC has won 11 National Championships in football

I am so offended by Palmers comments!!! Seriously, if you don't like Ohio teams, get out of Ohio! Go back to wonderful California and work at Walmart or McDonalds. At least there you can talk about your glory days at USC and nobody will remember your loosing pro-career.

LOL Carson, If you are going to say something about the Buckeyes or anything else stand by your words don't be a coward! I would respect you more for you standing by your words. We all know you don't like the Buckeyes why would you? You are from USC and this is Big Ten country and we don't like USC! We can't help it that the Big Ten is out dated and they don't have a title game or that we start our games before anyone else or that the Big Ten has soft teams. Nor can we help who we play. You said it be a man and stand by what you said! GO STEELERS! Anyone want a 2 XL Palmer jersey?

Let's see how many Buckeyes support Carson this Season.........lame appoligy!
GO BUCKS.....CARSON SUCKS!

just looking forward...that much more...to kickin' some condom-a** come september;)
suck it, palmer.

im only dissapointed that carson issued an apology. stand by your words #9! seriously,the guy went to usc,not ohio state. should be agreat game this fall. oh,and believe it or not,there are many people in ohio who cannot stand the buckeyes either.

who?

let's get real guys and girls....Carson is a Trojan alumn. Would you be fine with, let's say Troy Smith bad mouthing the Buck's to impress some Maryland radio station/ fans? I didn't think so... He would back Ohio State no matter what, so should Maryland fans hold that against him? Palmer probly didnt choose the best words, but hey, he's a Trojan it's not his fault.

Yeah... but anytime you refer to any group of individuals as "those people," well... it doesn't convey positive feelings. Regardless of where you went to school or where you have personal ties, making vast generalizations about people doesn't reflect well. It's just trashy.

Who's really surprised about it though? Some people are just trashy.

technically sc split in 03, so keep hating buckeye fan. yes, you made it to the last two title games, but you were not really there. sc (and the pac 10) own the big 10 just like the sec does. i look forward to the beat down you will recieve in la this year on the way to sc hanging up number 12.

I mean, I'm pretty sure we were really there... although, I've tried to forget.

Stay classy, San Diego!
