Dean Green weighs in
Thanks to HOTTIE Caleb Rotten for allowing us to soak this in.
For the record, I don't remember a lot of booing at the USM game. Some people boo Santa Claus. I booed Cal Ripken in Camden Yards and felt really good about it.
I didn't think enough of what I heard two weeks ago to write about it. Still, this is interesting:

Dear Auburn Student,
I wanted to remind each of you about the importance of your support for our team and displaying character this weekend when L.S.U. fans and other guests arrive this weekend. First, please join me by agreeing to demonstrate your support for, and not criticism of, our football team. That means no booing! Remember, the team isn't trying to lose the game--the players work hard all spring and during fall camp to be ready to compete in the S.E.C. Let's show our appreciation for their hard work by encouraging them with loads enthusiasm! Secondly, help me show the world what I get to experience everyday: that Auburn men and women are special, dedicated, loyal, fun loving, bleed orange and blue, are compassionate, and demonstrate good will to others, even our competitors.
ESPN Game Day will be in town this weekend and we need everyone to come out and show them how much we support our team. Let's show Chris Fowler, Kirk Hebstreit, Lee Corso and Desmond Howard true fan support and loyalty for Auburn!
The nation will be watching the next two weeks (ESPN, CBS next week), and lets remember to have a great time, enjoy the weekend's activities, watch our language and behavior, and display class, taste, and character in everything we do. I have every confidence you will.
War Eagle!!
Dr. Johnny Green, '85
Office of the Dean of
Students

Jay G, What is your quess on what "team rules" Slaughter broke? I really thought he was going to excel in this offense.
Hey everyone! This is my first post on a Auburn blog, but I have been a long time "lurker" of most of them for years. Just wanted to say this is one of my favorites! Jay, you and those who regularly comment here are informative, funny and are able to offer critcsm without being overly negative. So keep up the good work everyone!
I only heard booing at one point during the USM game. Which in my opinion is one time too many. But I'm just a chick and tend to feel sorry for my tigers when they get booed by their own "fans". I'm sensitive that way ;-)
War Eagle!
Good work on Sportline on WMSP this morning.
For those of you who missed it, you can go to LINK and download it anytime over the next 7 days.
I hope no one else except Auburn people see that...
'Green' is the new pink
Why is it incumbent upon those guys to act like they're 95 years old?
"Rock Band? My kids play that."
Mine, too. Try playing with them sometime. It's fun.
Also liked how Barry said he doesn't understand Twitter. What's to understand?
On Slaughter: You know, I said initially that he'd be gone at least six weeks. I received (off-the-record) word earlier this week that Sgt. Slaughter could be back sooner than that.
This guy didn't give me a firm date or anything ...
XBOX 360 and all other gamers unite, I say.
Just because you play games, doesn't mean you don't have a life, but a lot of people bash on me for the same.
My wife and I love doing stuff like that together. We even play a lot of board games still.
Ah, the fun some people miss out on...
Hey, what's up with Chaz "I can't do the Triple Linde" Ramsey by the way?
Archived Jay G. interviews.
Sounds major.
(I can't believe that's already up.)
Well, it's not from their site. I recorded it from the broadcast and then posted it here for the Hotties with all respects and citations to its origins.
Chris Todd is not better than Brandon Cox. Just had to say that. Cox had his 2 or 3 implosions a year. Other than that, he was a gamer and he had laser like precision within a 25 yard range. He also showed a lot more velocity on his throws in that range than Todd does.
Todd will get us into big trouble this weekend. That's my guarantee of the week.
Easy there Crud.
I watched the MSU game last night again. I noticed that Todd had Trott wide open across field a few times and although he looked straight at him, didnt (or couldnt) make the throw. He opted to hit the RB straight in front of him. I think his shoulder may be a bigger liability than we have been led to believe.
Dean Green,
Please contact me as soon as possible. As a season ticket holder and fan I will need a list of things I can and can not do this weekend. Please forward me a list of the following and your decision on each.
1. Light beer or heavy?
2. Orange shirt or Blue?
3. Boiled Peanuts or funnel cake?
4. High five the guy next to me or just nod in approval?
5. Boxers or briefs?
6. Should I waste my time fighting the crowd at J&M Books or not?
7. Should I even attempt at getting on Gameday or not?
8. Should I yell for good offensive production or just a simple golf clap?
If you could please get back with me on my game day decisions for me I would appreciate it.
Thanks,
Patdyeswildturkey
thanks for the audio mr. sensible. i always seem to miss them online.
No prob. Scottie B. Glad I was able to catch it.
Chaz is gone by the way..Likely headed to USM
mr. anonymous, you can't just say that about Chad and leave us hanging. proof? eye-witness account? your sister's ex-boyfriend knew his sister in high school and he told your momma's gardener and he told you?
Chaz, sorry...not Chad. typo.
My best guess is that Chaz will leave, though I don't know that as fact. He was in school as recently as last week.
If players dont want to hear fans boo, then they should probably go to Vandy.

Any speculation on your part as to why he might leave? Is this a Marcus White-type thing or a Casinius Moore-type thing? Or am I completely off base?
Phil Snow always called Moore (I'm doing this phonetically) "kuh-NEESH-es-ness". Makes me laugh every time.
I can't really speak authoritatively on Ramsey's situation, so I'll just let my earlier statement stand:
My best guess is that he won't be back.
I am not sure I understand that really. If he can't play here, how can he play there? Or is he not playing anymore and just going to school?
i would be embarresed if i had meddling parents as a college athlete. Its really sad, its a Toney Douglas deal all over again. I would love to keep Chaz, but if he wants to go back to Mississippi, then oh well. I guess he can chop block in Starkville or Oxford. Do you think Chaz has adopted that moniker as the chop block king, like a car tag, tattoo, gold four fingered rings that say chop on the left hand and block on the right, it would a hell of a marketing gimmick,
What's up Jay G??..I am now an official HOTTIE...been a reader for a couple of years..Enjoy the site Jay..video is a nice touch also..War Eagle!!!
Ron Mexico ... I still got you hooked up. You need to let me know via my profile email link. Won't have them after today.
Just got off work... I just hit you up with an email.
It's too bad that the Dean of Student Affairs issues that statement to students (that probably need a warning) and AU fans/Alumni take offense.
Booing is a cowardly, redneck action. Sitting up in the stands as if in an ivory tower like a Roman Emporer giving thumbs up or down. Nice......I guess it helps you guys with the self esteem problem huh?
We have a major group of top level recruits and ESPN Gameday coming in this weekend....so if for no other reason....can the cowardly 'necks at least control themselves for this game?
Sorry I haven't been more active here today.
I've been out doing the Blackberry vs. iPhone thing. I do it all for the HOTTIES, though, so your patience has been and will be appreciated.
I woke up today thinking the BB would win. Now that Alltel tells me their version of the Curve doesn't have wifi and GPS is an extra 9.99/mo., I'm leaning toward the iPhone.
I need some closure!
Word is that Chaz had an issue with AU staff about his work out schedule. He felt he could play, they did not. Supposedly he has a real issue with his back. I also heard he has some "involved" parents.. Just hearsay, of course.
my sister loves her blackberry. i have heard the iphone has battery life issues--not sure if that's resolved. also, i think you have to go with a, t &t for the iphone. mandates scare me. 'course, i've got a "top of the line" phone from 6 years ago, so i'm an unsavvy sort. is it saturday yet? i'll be looking for a habotn sign. war eagle!
everybody got there corndogs ready for saturday....jay ..long time reader here...just wanted to say you are very informative and we thank u...war eagle!
WildTurkey-
Congrats for you have won the lamest post of the day award.
Blackberry Curve with simply everything plan from Sprint. That's if you want real GPS. No wifi though. You don't need it with Rev A.
Jay G Tate, if that is your real name, the new Blackberry Storm will be out in November from Verizon. All the great stuff that comes with a Blackberry but it will add a touchscreen and much better visuals to compete with the iPhone. Check it out.
That is my real name.
Who would fake something that lame?
Pat's obviously a poser. Congrats JGT, the blog has now attracted enough attention for Bammers to show up. OK boys.....let's protect the neighborhood.
I didn't think PDWT's post was that out of line. Maybe all this mobile-phone anxiety is affecting me ...
Sorry, the "if that is your real name" bit is a riff from "Dr Strangelove".
mm hmm ... I thought you were long gone. Welcome back. Spice is good.
I mean really, who would make up a name like Jay G. Tate. Just kidding. Even worse, who would pull out a Dr. Strangelove quote in the year 2008. Again, just kidding.
What about CTT visiting "Dr. Lou"?
Dr. Lou?
I didn't get the "Strangelove" reference and I feel like a good for missing it.
CTT was on the Dr. Lou segment at Halftime of the WVU v Colorado game...asked if it was more important to have the kids ready mentally or phyiscally...
posting from the road on my Palm Centro. It rules.
The Peptalk was better than Dr. Lou....
Dadgummit! I can't believe I missed Tuberville talking with Lou Holtz.
That could have been FUN.
anybody watching this CU/WVA game? i got home in time to watch Pat White score the tying TD. it's nice to see a QB take off and blow past the secondary. not sure why they've only got 2 TD's, though. we'll see....
Is it just me, or has Lou Holtz gotten weirder and weirder?
he's a little out there but i think he's hilarious. i saw him speak at a Boys & Girls Club fundraiser a couple years ago here in Knox. he was fantastic.
hey, WVA and CTF call the same play on third and long....THE DRAW!!!!!!! 3rd & 28 for the Mountaineers with 6:15 left. ugly.
OVERTIME in Boulder. wow.
JGT, have you had time to sample the new Metallica? not sure yet. rockin the itunes as i type.
I have read so much about the terrible mixing "Death Magnetic" was forced to endure.
Metallica's new album sounds like poop
that article could also be written about the start of WVU's season. my goodness. the K doinked the FG in OT. CU drove the ball to the 5 or so and kicked the winning FG.
if anyone wants to Morgantown, it looks like ticket prices just dropped like WVU's ranking. again, wow!
The "new" coach at WVU: Just Some Dude.
Let Louisville fans tell you how Just Some Dude works out.
Who in the hell drinks Fresca? Huh? Tell me that.
Jay,
While the content will probably be irrelevant by then, ESPN archives all of the Dr.Lou segments for us to enjoy. Just search "Dr.Lou" on the ESPN main page. Also, they usually replay it throughout the weekend. I'd think they'd replay it during college football live tomorrow. I'll try to rip it.
here's the link to last weeks':
http://sports.espn.go.com/broadband/video/videopage?videoId=3583006
Fresca's like a crappy non-alcoholic sloe gin fizz....that being said, I've had some in the last 30 days because that was the only thing in the refrigerator...
It's almost game day.
Fresca?
random plug: FX's IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA. so wrong but so good.
Jay G ... if you want it, I've got a full size blackberry that you can have. thought I'd offer.
I was talking to one of my buddies about this letter from Dean Green, and something he said making fun of it (he's an ignorant UF alum) made me think:
What exactly is Dean Green expecting this weekend to feel the need to write a letter like this? Certainly, he's not counting on an Auburn blowout. Damage control before the fact makes me think he doesn't have very much faith in the team or the students.
Gotta think positive, Mean Dean Green. Winner Winner Chicken Dinner Positive!!!!!
War Damn Eagle.
I said this earlier, but it is in response to last season where some in the Auburn Student section booed Brandon Cox after turning the ball over on two or possibly three possessions(I think it was the South Florida game). He knows that a lot of people are screaming for Kodi and doesn't want to hear any boos. That's it. He isn't speaking to the vast majority of students, but the hard headed idiots who think is funny to do disrespectful things to LSU.
G Money ... I think it's new subject time. What about you?
