Hey everyone. I will be on The (WMSP) Roundtable during the 1 o'clock hour today. For the influx of new HOTTIES, all of whom we adore, the HABOTN enjoys a close relationship with The Roudtable. They stream over the internets.
So check that out.
T-SHIRT UPDATE: We're moving forward with the HABOTN T-shirt Initiative. A member of the RoF has graciously offered to be our conduit toward textile nirvana. I thought Taylor's initial design, which he created more than a month ago, was pretty hot.
If you have suggestions, please comment below. Early ideas include a two-color front, some type of mono-tone slogan or logo on the upper back. That's very similar to what Taylor postulated all those days ago.
I'll have a more involved entry later in the day.
Wifey and I hang out on Thursday afternoons because, well, she doesn't see much of me during the weekends.

cool, i'd buy one.
ReplyDeletere the tshirt, i always liked that quote from ctt about habotn: "that's too long of a name....just call it hot". just call it hot could work.
ReplyDeletemonica had some good ideas for a tshirt as well.
ReplyDeleteMmmm. that quote would be good if we knew he was gonna be here next year. If he's gone. Then it will be not so hot.
ReplyDeleteTo continue what Eddie and Kristina were discussing in the earlier thread ...
ReplyDeleteThey remodeled the practice locker rooms during the spring and summer. That was a $1.8 million project. The equipment room was not affected.
AU is about to open new offices in the athletic complex. The Lovelace Museum has been temporarily moved (will be housed permanently in the new basketball area) and that area now is two levels of offices.
Before this project, Auburn Athletics was divided. Some people worked in the athletic department. Some worked in Beard-Eaves. Now they'll all work under the same roof.
Beat hacks will be moved to the new area. Yay!
Yeah I was talking about the office space.
ReplyDeleteHow about a whole line of clothes? I could sure use some HABOTN briefs.
ReplyDeleteHABOTN thongs would make a great gift.
ReplyDeleteJay with the shameless plug ;-)
ReplyDeletedoesn't matter whats on it, i'm enough of a mark that i'll buy one even if it's just jays avatar face on the back or something, anything for the cause.
ReplyDeleteSorry jay i do not want your picture on my thong.
ReplyDeleteMy mug will not be a part of any HABOTN merchandising.
ReplyDeleteI'll give you a George Foreman GARR-ON-TEE on that one.
from the other thread....I'm not going to Salsarita's until I can pledge my allegience to the HABOTN
ReplyDeleteJUST to clear things up, i was talkin t shirt, i can't keep my boxers out of my arse enough to ever think of wearin thongs, although i think i'd be quite a manscicle in a pair of thongs.
ReplyDeletehot, bin, very hot
ReplyDeleteThanks for the clarification, B.
ReplyDeleteOh and I totally agree with your comment on the the other thread reagrding us needing to control the TOP this Saturday.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteThis may be a stupid question, but is Trottman in radio?
ReplyDeleteTold ya so>>>>
ReplyDeleteManscicle>>>>>>

ReplyDeleteyou're welcome, ladies........ and probably a few of you fellas.
ReplyDeleteThanks, B now the HABOTN is sure to get blocked @ work!!
ReplyDeleteman...I have a client coming in at 1pm so back to work....can't believe I am going to miss all the fun! Jay keep Doug in check!
ReplyDeleteJust drink it in, sean. Should last ya a while.
ReplyDeleteBinoba- I'm surprised you had that picture handy.
ReplyDeleteJay- They need some equipment room love in the remodel. It will make things easier on all having the offices in the same location.
see desing here"
ReplyDeletehttp://www.customink.com/designs/habotnblue/9674732-1986245?cm_ven=hotlink&cm_cat=2&cm_pla=Body_txt&cm_ite=design
What's the schedule usually like for the team on Thursdays?
ReplyDeletedesing, design, whatever
ReplyDeleteYeah i got some good pics, this internet stuff pays for itself in laughs most of the time.
ReplyDeleteJay, When are we looking at a time frame for the new merchandising label for the HABOTN?
ReplyDeleteNot bad Taylor.
ReplyDeleteAtlanta- We want in place by the time the new coaching staff gets here.
ReplyDeletethanks eddie. i thought it was pretty HOT
ReplyDeleteHere is a read about how a Georgia Fan hates all of us.
ReplyDeleteGeorgia Idiots Guide to Hating Auburn
By the way, I have taken hedges while I was part of the team. I love the picture I have of it.
Isn't today Thursday...
ReplyDeleteSo the title should be "Thursday shenanigans, 11/13"
Not a big deal, it just scared me when it said Wednesday b/c I thought my week was over today.
Chris- My week has been mentally over 3 days ago.
ReplyDeleteWhats up with the roundtable?
ReplyDeleteYeah for me once Wednesday gets here on a big game week...I've pretty much checked out.
ReplyDeleteJay G coming up on the roundtable
ReplyDeleteI'm still up for the X-Small HABOTN t-shirt because it fits my perfectly toned "cold beer" belly so so well. I just need the sleeves long enough so I can roll up the Marlboro box in the sleeve.
ReplyDeleteHAWT I tell you...HAWT.
Maybe yall need to take some yoga, or some prozac?
ReplyDeleteMaybe this place will pickup now that Jay's on. It's dead right now.
ReplyDeleteCan we have a version with the big logo on the back?
ReplyDeleteSay my name!!!!
ReplyDeleteWho called jay g a holder?
ReplyDeletesup hotties, hootie hoooo.
ReplyDeleteOK, so like awhile ago, Jay mentioned something about a thong, and then Kristina immediately followed that post with a comment about a shameless plug. Did you mean to make that awesome pun, Kristina? Because I know I wear my thong like a shameless plug.
ReplyDeletemichael: bringin' it back to undies talk.
If doug says your name, FSJ, I hope he says you are a Auburn fan.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
ReplyDeleteShameless "plug"....
I wouldnt tell you even if that was what i was thinking, Michael ;-)
ReplyDeleteDon't make me call in again Kristina....
ReplyDeleteMichael, brilliant I just laughed out loud and I'm getting curious stares from around the office.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you said it, Michael. I was thinking it.
ReplyDeleteeddie4au, somehow you managed to find a link to a blog from a loon. I cannot imagine how fragile that pitiful mind must be to allow a college football game to affect him so. I do hope we don't have Auburn fans that are the disturbed.
ReplyDeleteMonica....What do you want to bet we hear your name on the air today.
ReplyDeletemonica
ReplyDeletethat picture freaks me out a little...
Somebody pull Monica back in from the ledge...
ReplyDeleteJay G not giving much hope this weekend...
Jay- Come on, give me some hope. Not sounding good.
ReplyDeleteI can't stream the audio, does someone want to summarize?
ReplyDeleteJay....Merrill Johnson is playing Saturday.
ReplyDeleteBS- Performance will have everything to do with whether Tubs stays or goes.
ReplyDeleteTaylor - Stare at it a very long time and you'll be ready to do my evil bidding!
ReplyDelete35% chance we beat UGA according to Jay G.
ReplyDeleteFaker - No ledge walking for me this season. I'm a realist.
ReplyDeleteMonica is doing the tight rope now.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty much if its a replay of the last two that will be the final chapter in the CTT story?
ReplyDeleteIf you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room.
ReplyDeleteMonica with the quote of the day. I like it.
ReplyDeleteJay bringing the original analysis. You don't get that stuff from anyone else.
ReplyDeleteSnap.
I bet Jay is Tuberville's favorite reporter..
ReplyDeleteHe is so into the company line...Not.
That's not mine, Eddie, but I don't know who gets the credit.
ReplyDeleteWay to go biscuit. Way to bring up the 1000 post night.
ReplyDeleteJD/Biscuitator - an answer to your question.
ReplyDeleteTim Hawthorne
Cencade Pennington
Demontray Carter
Need I say more?
Jay G...I'll buy two shirts if you work the words "jerk store" into his interview.
ReplyDeleteBrandon Jacobs.
ReplyDeleteI blame Brandon Jacobs on the Auburn staff. How could you not use a talent like that...
ReplyDeletemr s...didping into the well of AU football knowledge. impressive sir
ReplyDeleteLectron Williams?
ReplyDeleteShout out to the ONLY Bama fan on HABOTN....
ReplyDeleteDo it NOOOOWWWWW!
ReplyDeletetalkin bout us yall, or jays blog rather.
ReplyDeleteApparently we have Victoryland on the phone.
ReplyDeleteOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!YOU GOT SERVED BY VICTORYLAND!!!
ReplyDeleteSensi,
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on Demontray Carter. However I don't recall Cencade Pennington being highly rated coming in.
I agree with Jay on Allen Tillman. Tillman came in as the QB of the future and never touched the field.
Kelcy Luke was another hyped QB that never panned out.
Rusty Williams was a pretty big name out of SC that didn't pan out.
Dede Green should have been all world at WR, but never got his head on straight.
I'm sure I can come up with a few more.
Faker - breathe
ReplyDeleteHe's going to blame the demise of HABOTN from a litte unkown civil blog on us and all our 200+ posts.
ReplyDeleteLectron was my pick fsj
ReplyDeleteI wonder is Jay G has a wee bit OCD going on. He is way too freaked out about this 200 plus post.
ReplyDeleteJerald Watson who came in at the same time as Brad Lester and got a few carries before redshirting in 2004 was a highly recruited guy out of Louisiana.
ReplyDeleteWho's the bama homer on there?? Sorry i'm not more familiar with them, and why's he so worried about a shirt??
ReplyDeleteWe're quality before quantity.
ReplyDeleteI did NOT find HABOTN on the roundtable. I found the roundtable on HABOTN. I think I found HABOTN from the War Eagle Reader.
ReplyDeleteI like quality above quantity. I like to believe I'm someone when I'm here :)
ReplyDeleteSame here, Kristina. I found the Roundtable on HABOTN because of Mr. S.
ReplyDeleteYou ARE someone eddie! And doggonit people like you!
ReplyDeleteYou're top shelf, Eddie.
ReplyDeletethanks phillip
ReplyDeleteI tell myself that everyday as I stare into the mirror.
ReplyDeleteIs that simply Phred?
ReplyDeleteTrent has surfed at some point in his life. Dude.
ReplyDeleteTRIVIA GIRLSSSSSSSS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCrap, Trivia Girls.
ReplyDeleteDon't hate Monica and Kristina...
ReplyDeleteWell the show just crashed & burned.
ReplyDeleteSee I have never heard them before. I am interested with all of your fine opinions....oh lord.
ReplyDeletei feel dumber for listening to the roundtable, honestly.
ReplyDeleteI'm nervous too.
ReplyDeleteJay, is it difficult to walk with the lips of the guys from the roundtable pressed so firmly to the buttock? I am very impressed with all the support the HABOTN is receiving on there. It is just incredible.
ReplyDeleteI can giggle with the best of them.
ReplyDeleteTrivia Answers...
ReplyDeleteAlabama - Numbers
Auburn - Interlocking AU
Look I am all for women using whatever skills they have to further themselves.
ReplyDeletebetter start giggling Kristina..
ReplyDeleteThat's not a giggle...That is a cackle...
ReplyDeleteOh the speakers on my laptop just blew out.
ReplyDeleteThe color of the number on the Alabama helmet?
ReplyDeleteWhat is on the side of the Auburn helmet?
Will someone please shoot these bimbos and put them out of my misery.
Who will be playing in the SECCG? Alabama and Floria
These questoins are tough. The next question should be what state is the University of Alabama located in.
cymbals crash
ReplyDeleteI hope they are at least attractive.
ReplyDeleteGotta be. Otherwise they wouldn't let them screw up their show like that.
ReplyDeleteMore jay = ratings,the roundtable should see that by now, and if not maybe they can get joe namath and kenny stable in a drunken story telling contest on air. The only thing that would make trivia girls interesting would be an ounce of crystal meth, a machete, and a pistol for everyone involved.
ReplyDeleteThank Nick Saban!!
ReplyDeleteY'all.
ReplyDeleteKristina, I pray that you and Monica don't sound like that. For some reason I get the impressions these girls couldn't speak without playing with their hair.
ReplyDeleteBig news...Jay Tate joins the show?
ReplyDeleteWhere did they say they would be next Friday? I will be in Montgomery for turkey day weekend.
ReplyDeleteThey've all got great faces for radio if you ask me, just so long as i can turn it off when i hear them, that's how i wanna keep it .
ReplyDeleteJosh needs to quit screaming.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't know the trivia girls have already messed up my speakers.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, big announcement? The RoundTable to be renamed Radio Free HABOTN.
ReplyDeleteGoing out on some Coldplay
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to overlap when you have people snorting and screaming on the radio......
ReplyDeleteColdplay should be the official band of the Auburn Offense.
ReplyDeleteI actually was at their concert Tuesday night in ATL.
ReplyDeleteGreat show!
Anytime I listen to the roundtable after it is over, I close out of the listen live box, I suddenly lose my DSL connection for a minute. Anyone else had that problem?
ReplyDeleteMy wife is a Coldplay fan. I just can't get into them. There are a couple of songs they do that I like, but that's about it.
ReplyDeleteYea, it was mainly for my girlfriend. They're her favorite band...
ReplyDeletechris martin is so cute.
ReplyDeletechris03, you already called it a great show. Don't act like Coldplay isn't your favorite band. You have been exposed, Auburn defense style!
ReplyDeleteDude..chicks make you do some strange stuff...
ReplyDeleteI spent a boatload of money to carry some gal to see the Eagles about 12-14 years ago.
Ughhhh.
Dude - that wasn't the chick making you do that.
ReplyDeletelol @ Auburn defense style. Slowly and barely?
ReplyDeleteNot sure what you are getting at, but there is always a woman to blame.
ReplyDeleteFSJ- I saw the Eagles last year and it was worth every penny.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteFSJ- Is a sirius xm Margarittavile fan. More than once he has made the above reference.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, I mean it's not like I hate them.
ReplyDeleteThey're a good band, but I wouldn't have drove all the way to ATL just to see them if they weren't my girlfriend's favorite band.
While I have to give the Roundtable a tip of the hat, it is only because Jay G. Tate is on there and lends dignity to what would otherwise be an unorganized and incoherent rabble. However for real radio nirvana, you should try my and Joe B. Hall's show. You can catch the rebroadcast every day at noon. I can't wait until basketball season begins in earnest to really offer some insight on Jeff Lebo and his attempt to coach basketball.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.joebanddenny.com/
It has occurred to me that it might be easier to predict the coaches that will not be the next head coach at Auburn. I will propose Tommy Bowden as the head coach least likely to be the head coach at Auburn.
ReplyDeleteKristina,
ReplyDeleteYou were looking for a recipe for chicken. This isn't chicken, but this is a dish that I fix that people are quite fond of.
Denny Crum's Bologna Tacos
By popular demand...a recipe from The Master...now the stuff of legend...Denny Crum's Bologna Tacos.
For best results, employ the assistance of others so the tacos can be enjoyed hot!
- Lightly fry 3/8" thick bologna (sliced in half). Hot & brown...not crispy.
- Lightly fry soft tortilla shells (in vegetable oil) on both sides...
Stack them with paper towel in between each until you're ready to assemble your masterpiece.
Add your innards...
- Diced tomatoes
- Green taco sauce
- Sharp cheddar cheese
- Refried beans
- Sliced avocados...California avocados, that is. (Don't question The Master).
Do not add lettuce and/or onions as they distract from the taco's majestic and complex flavor.
Enjoy!
Now I'm hungry...
ReplyDeleteAnd I just ate lunch...
ReplyDeleteBobby Petrino and my old friend, Howard Schellenberger are at the bottom of the list.
ReplyDeleteSteve- I will see your Tommy and raise you Terry Bowden.
ReplyDeleteSteve/Eddie - Put me down for Lou Holtz & Jim Donnon
ReplyDeleteDenny:
ReplyDeleteMy favorite hotel in in your fine city. The Seelbach Hilton is top notch.
Bourbon Bread Pudding.... Good stuff.
Jim Tressel and Bill Curry at the bottom. This is fun.
ReplyDeleteBill Cowher
ReplyDeleteBill Belichek
ReplyDeletePhil Fulmer
ReplyDeleteI'd say Nick Saban would be at the bottom as well.
ReplyDeleteGreg Robinson
ReplyDeleteI was say there is no chance it will be Doug Barfield Larry Blakney or Wayne Hall.
ReplyDeleteWell, he has a gig. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Seelbach is a wonderful establishment. It is often overlooked because of the Brown Hotel. Also, when you are in town be sure to Dine at John E's Restaurant on Bardstown Road. Be sure to tell them that I sent you.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.johnesrestaurant.com/index.html
Dave Wannstadt. He has great facial hair as does Pat Hill of Fresno State.
ReplyDeleteMike DuBose
ReplyDeleteBear Bryant
ReplyDeleteDenny - You're such a man about town. I wish I liked basketball more.
ReplyDeleteEddie - tsk tsk tsk
ReplyDeleteMIKE SHULA
ReplyDeletei'll go Mike shula..hey this is fun
ReplyDeleteNever been to the Brown. I've stayed at the Seelbach many times. The last time I was there, the President was staying there too. Secret Service folks were all over the place.
ReplyDeletechris you beat me dangit
ReplyDeleteBad form Eddie.
ReplyDeletedick butkus Don SHula
ReplyDeletePete Carroll?
ReplyDeleteSly Croom.
ReplyDeleteSteve - FYI I don't sound like that.
ReplyDeleteok ok I'll go Lee Corso
ReplyDeleteI walk into the room, then I see the most beautiful thing ever, and BAM, I'm in love.
ReplyDeleteBologna and a taco ... Sweet Mother of Angioplasty ... I could have never conceived such a creation.
I mean, I hoped I could. Wished I could. Prayed I could.
But, nah. No way.
Bologna and Taco. This needs to be a "Crossroads" episode kinda like Hank Williams, Sr. and Jimi Hendrix.
Or something like that.
Guy on Finebaum is wrong...
ReplyDeleteLOL Jet
ReplyDeletegood one, Chris
ReplyDeleteHow about Tim Brewster's big loss last week?
ReplyDeleteGreg Knox
ReplyDeleteTONY FRANKLIN, what about THAT?
ReplyDeleteThat was painful, Chris. I talked to Coach Brew after the game and he was inconsolable. He told me to apologize to you, too.
ReplyDeletenow enough of this blasphemous chat about our beloved CTT not being at AU next year...
ReplyDeleteThat's understandable.
ReplyDeleteI guess 9-3 is a fairly good turn around from 1-11.
I'd take right about now. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'd take 6-6 right now. At least we'd go to a bowl game.
ReplyDeleteYou'll take 5-7 and like it. Or not like it.
ReplyDeleteTotal eclipse of the heart.
Tim Brewster isn't going to leave yet.
ReplyDeleteLMAO at jet...
ReplyDeleteTotal Eclipse of the Heart?

ReplyDeleteLou Holtz as the next head coach? Now I am going to have nightmares. I can see the quarterback drinched in spit as Senator Lou attempts to talk with him. Coach, why do you keep saying I should path the ball? There are no paths on the football field.
ReplyDeleteis it just me or does ben tate look like a midget in that picture on todays post?
ReplyDeleteHe does look tiny...hahah
ReplyDelete199!
ReplyDelete200! Hooray!
ReplyDelete
