People take sports WAY to seriously

WTF, First take has Carson Palmer on and they are talking about how people in Ohio are upset because he said USC is gonna kick the OSU's ass this week. The guy isn't supposed to support his alma mater?

Jessica Simpson can't be a fan?

LeBron can't wear a Yankee's hat?

people ned to chill out.

Definitely, I remember a lot of Boston fans giving Tom Brady shit for wearing a Yankees hat last year, as if he's supposed to give over his entire soul because he signed a contract.

If Ohio fans don't like Carson Palmer any more then I am sure the Dolphins can work something out with the Bengals.

I don't think people would have cared if Brady had worn a Tigers hat, or a Brewers hat, or a Giants hat, or even an Angels hat (those being teams around his college and where he grew up). I think the reason there was so much of a stink over it is because the guy has no perceived "natural connection" to NYC. Sure maybe he's been a Yankees fan since he was a baby, but if that's the case nobody knows about it, and I think that's why people got SO bent out of shape about it. I mean sure, yeah it was because it's the Yankees too.

But my theory was always "Brady's not a Yankees fan. He just needed a hat to put on with his sunglasses so he could try to hide a bit, and that was a hat that somebody had left at his place" or something like that.

The bigger question is whether the Bengals could beat either USC or OSU.

Even if he's been a hardcore Yankees fan all his life, and hates the Red Sox with a passion, that has nothing to do with him being a Patriot.

I think people get way too caught up in that kind of thing. Brady's with the Patriots because he was drafted by New England in the 7th round, he didn't choose NE after a round of interviews across the country. .

If I recall correctly, didn't Palmer make some shitty comments about Ohio State fans, as well? The same fans who are more then likely his fans?
