USC's Dirty Sanchez

Today, one day before the 2006 NFL Draft, the national media is all over the Reggie Bush scandal. If you're not aware of the story, apparently the Bush family lived in a $750,000 home for free while Reggie was a Trojan. Which seems perfectly reasonable to me. I've been offered that kind of thing a number of times, but my family just preferred not to give the impression of impropriety. Anyway, if you want to read more about that, just Google it you lazy bastard.

This post is about a current USC player, the hotshot QB prospect Mark Sanchez out of Mission Viejo, California. He was picked up this week on sexual assault charges. He's out on $200,000 bail. Details are sketchy, and it seems that for the moment the USC PR department has things under control...

But get ready for a media avalanche coming down on Pete Carroll's program. And this is going to be mentioned alongside the rape charges against Duke lax players for months.
