Leinart's Post-Heisman Party Time
An email forwarded (but not written) by TK at AOL Sports contains the following:
"Quick story you guys might enjoy. Went to a party at Lauren's on Saturday night. About 20 people. Half of us went to some random bar, the other half went to this upscale place called Marquee.
Anyways, these two pretty girls who were visiting Lauren from Texas went to Marquee, I didn't of course opting for the hole in the wall with $3 beers. So yesterday morning, Lauren calls me and says "Do you know some guy named Matt Line Hart?"
I laugh and say yeah and don't bother to correct her. She says, well he was at Marquee last night, and hit on one of the girls from texas all night, danced with her, and then was so drunk he groped her. She turned around and slapped him, and left.
I said yea yea, I doubt it even though it kinda made sense that he would be in an upscale club getting trashed after losing the Heisman. I told her I'd believe the story when i saw pictures.
Well, here they are.........."
Upon further investigation, Trojan Football reports that both Leinart and Reggie Bush were at the Marquee that night but Vince Young declined due to being "emotionally upset" after not winning the Heisman. Perhaps Leinart should have done the same. Regardless, take the above item for what it's worth, and at least the girl's a looker. I was kind've hoping she'd be a slump buster.
Update: Inside USC recaps the post-Heisman party with no mention of the incident, although LenDale White and Kirk Herbstreit were there.
Update: Inside USC quotes Leinart as saying, "She didn't slap me, and I didn't grope her." They should know. They were there. And they are Trojan fans. Plus, they post another funny Leinart pic from the Heisman afterparty:

I had to yell at Joe Walsh and Derek Sanderson once when I was the night clerk at Kimball's By The Sea in Cohasset. I very nearly had to kick Walsh in the nuts.
