So Rocky Long aka “The Rock is heading to the
beaches and
tomb of a stadium known as Qualcomm Park as he is joining his friend
Brady Hoke
as the defensive coordinator of the San Diego State Aztecs.
And
the message boards have been freaking nuts about it. From
one freaking extreme to the other… words like “traitor” and “disloyal”
have
been tossed out as well as the various F-bombs, and crushing of the
Aztecs…
So
I put on my Sigmund Freud hat, fired up a big old fat
cigar and thought about it… Then I called Dom in the frozen tundra
called
Kansas City and Podcasted it…

And
I’ve come to the conclusion that maybe it is better that
The Rock goes to a conference rival instead of some BCS school.
There
were quite a few people that ended up being “Rocky
Long fans” instead of “Lobo fans” that were willing to switch
allegiances
wherever The Rock went. Had he gone to a BCS team perhaps there would
have been
many of the “loyal” 20K that would hang out in University Stadium on a
Saturday
afternoon stay home to watch The Rock’s defense in Oklahoma St.,
Washington,
Mississippi St., or the other places that Rocky was rumored to go.
For
those of you that remember Mike London’s wrestling on
Sunday mornings before Tarzan, NFL football, and Mutual of Omaha’s Wild
Kingdom
should remember how a wrestler would go from the baby face “good guy”
to the
hated “heel”
Well
this move reminds me of the same thing. The “Golden
Boy” turns into the “Bad Boy.”
So for those Lobo fans that are wounded or in
pain... The wound is fresh and painful right now, but there is a
new doctor in the house and his name is
Doc.
