«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 600
The 3 daves were infinitely better than these goobs tonight...
G'night all
Oklahoma = Minnesota Vikings of college football.
DAMN GATORS! i hate them sooooo much
my fox hd was great on direct tv, too bad i could not listen to the dolby digital 5.1. had to mute
I've been married 20 also. Neutered after about 12!! Ha
I only made it about 6.
4 titles in the SEC in the past 6 years...
at least your HD worked Paladin....Knology HD was out the whole frickin game!
tebow and harvin are going to stay and they are going to win again next year
Goodnight to all, what a fun football season! Too bad it's all over till next year.
what is Knology?
Bradford needs a haircut. Great game for the Gators. I honestly cant see how Charlie Strong is not an HC in the next 2 years. That D was better than I ever thought it would have been against Choklahoma.
are we loading up our coaching staff to complete with saban or meyer? I think meyer has set the bar high and we need to knock him off.
I agree with jhag, i hate them gators, but having more hater for bama
As bad as I'd like to hate Tebow... I just can't find a legit reason to do so...
Knology is my cable provider...
So much for all those Big 12 teams that OU blew away. How did the Big 12 finish in bowls?
I agree Paladin...gotta raise the bar on the Plains.
i used to have comcast but there hd plan was way to expensive, so far I luv my direct tv. but only had it for about a month.
I guess this put the conference debates to bed real early.
I loathe Tim Tebow. Why talk trash at the end of the game like that? Didn't you just show him on the field? Be a bigger man than that.
For someone who is always considered an ambassador for Christianity, on the field that guy has come across to me as just about as cocky as anyone could be.
This was a very confusing game for me to watch. I hate Florida, but every time they made good plays it validated my conference, so I would cheer on the inside. Then with about 3 minutes left in the game, I realized they were about to win, and I got this sinking feeling in my stomach. I feel dirty. Florida is the devil.
i've never hated a man more then Timmothy faggoty tebow
Tebow's felt the wrath of the Auburn defense in 06 and 07. Kinda doubt he ever wants to play us again. May be enuf for him to declare.
I don't fault Tebow for finally talking back. Tebow has had a target on his back all year long. Players every single week called Tebow out. The Oklahoma guys talked smack the past month on how he was the 4th best qb. Regardless of being a christian I see no fault in him giving a little gator chomp back.
Pretty sad commentary from you guys bashing and name calling Tebow.
I didn't realize "faggoty" was used anymore. sad sad
I think he's so full of himself. He runs around town with his Heisman and his circumcising scissors always doing his "Get up!" arm motion thing, helping old ladies across the street and making press conference speeches that people worship. Poop on Tebow.
I'm not a Tebow fan at all, but I don't blame him for that little bit there. Harris was the one who called him out all week and the one who pulled on and twisted Harvin's gimp ankle.
But I agree with you Micheal, I hate hate hate Florida (worse than bama) and love to see them lose but I knew with Bama losing everyone would jump on the SEC is terrible bandwagon if UF lost, so I pulled from them, I threw up in my mouth twice when cheering for touchdowns.
You know what...I don't mind him being a little cocky after walking the talk. He kept his mouth shut all year and worked his ass off.
Now suddenly he's not a good christian because he got caught up in the emotion for a minute.
If that were me, I'd hurry to delete those comments.
BTW....I hate gators!
is big mike tebow? shouldnt you be celebrating?
I'll celebrate when Jay announces the next coaching hire.
WDE
I don't think Tim Tebow is "faggoty," there is probably a 99.3% chance he is skraight, not that I care. I don't like how cocky he comes across. Not exactly the meek will inherit the earth type stuff. I like the way Colt McCoy carries himself on the field. Polar opposite.
I probably wouldn't care if I myself wasn't a Christian, but I would rather see him caught drinking at a party than talking trash to a man while he's down. And this is definitely not the first time, he has talked trash quite a few times on the field. I wouldn't care if he didn't make himself Mr Ambassador for wholesomeness. A lot of people look up to him, so everything he does carries a lot of weight.
I don't like it, I like like the general sportsmanship shown by the gators or their coach over the course of the season, and that is that.
jubilation! sec wins again! i don't get the hate towards tebow. it wouldn't surprise me if he came back to fla. to play next year. he seems like a pretty good man, to me.
This kid has probably been the best ambassador to the college football game in quite some time. Please remember this guy is still a kid and doesn’t deserve the name calling. I am not a Florida fan but I have pulled for them the past two games. I Tebow is exactly what you would want in a role model for your kid.
geezeee everyone calm down i just thought adding faggoty gave it a nice ring, he does talk a tad feminine though
I wouldn't call him a kid at 21 but I agree that his character and integrity for three years will stand him gator chomping a sooner when he's down.
Name calling is just juvenile and classless.
Anyone want to talk about the BC head coaching situation?
doesen't "faggoty" refer to leftover coals? fire tested, one might say.
why migel?

No reason, I just like to bring it up from time to time.
This comment has been removed by the author.
It is hard to tell through the internets, but I am fairly certain jhag is really embarrassed right now.
what makes me embarrassed?
i think my definition is superior.
because you don't know how to spell "michael" correctly. Or is something else going on?
Apparently people are a bit passionate about Tebow...
I used to hate him but now I adore him for some reason. But I like a guy with confidence if he can back it up.
He's a great leader to his team and I wish we had one of those...
so can I use you definition and call my boss "faggoty" tomorrow, scott?
it was my attempt at spelling your name in spanish..come on dude your name is right there
by all means, michael. may i borrow your toupee?
Michael, what are your thoughts on the BC coaching situation? ;-)
I do as well Kristina...QB or not
If he was on my team, I would love Tebow but really be bothered by the stuff I mentioned earlier, just the same way I am incredibly bothered by illegal chop blocks but still root for the linemen who do them. Plus, he is fire tested and faggoty (the new definition).
Kristina!!!!!
i think bc needs a coach!
jhag... kidding about the misspelling of michael. ex-squeeze me, I am pretty sure Hansel has heard of hair gel, he is a male model.
scott - this is no toupee. Jan Terri naturally has the bald head suspiciously similar to some of our coaches heads.
kristina - I think we should all write essays tonight about BC and compare notes tomorrow morning.
You're something else Michael
personally, i just don't feel the fla. hatred i used to when they had spurrier for a coach. i know we have had a year off from them, but i just don'e seem to mind them as much as uga and uat, lately.
Yeah Micahehehel your something else =)
scott thats cause you don't live in florida, they are disgusting down here
It always helps that we beat them the past two times.
in munchen steht ein hofbrauhaus. now that's some spelling.
I agree with Big Mike, I am pretty sure I hated Florida in 2005.
Urban Meyer is Steve Spurrier without the southern charm. Cocky, runs the score up, etc. He seems like an awesome guy away from the field to his players, though, so I will give him that. Still easy to hate when you are watching them play.
And BC should have agreed to keep their coach under the condition that if he did not get the Jets job and stayed, he would have to be the AD's butler for 3 months.
And yes, I am something else.
true 'nuff, jhag. you ought to hear the ute stuff i'm getting out here.
Zoo Keeper's Tebow love makes me want to gag....
Don't throw up on the keyboard FSJ. Tebow's not worth it, man.
fsj, whey you bean, man?
You'd be crushing on Tebow if he was wearing Crimson and you know it, faker.
OLE MISS
Mchleal, I like your BC theory
me too mucheal
Thank you, Kristina. I have been wanting to share my thoughts on the BC situation for so long, but no one would ever listen to me. I am just a clown around here. But you know what? Sometimes I cry. There's some sad things known to man, but ain't too much sadder than the tears of a clown when no one's around.
michael, then i say "off with their heads!" If they can't coach without heads, we don't need 'em. we need venom bearing, soul sucking coaches. lacking hair is not enough!
scott..
I've been around but to be honest my mind has been elsewhere since the Iron Bowl. I guess losing two in a row in December will do that to you...
:-(
Look, guys and gals, if you are really having that much trouble with my name, then just call me MichaelJanTerri
Wow... there is no closure shave than that given by the guillotine. You may be onto something, scott.
Let it all out McihleaiaelJanTerri. Don't keep those tears inside clown.
tebow cannot call the first crystal ball his own
If it wasn't eleven fitty one, I would draw a tear on Jan Terri's eye. But since it is late, I will say goodnight and keep telling myself that Jan Terri doesn't ever cry.
fsj, from a purely statistical standpoint, it would appear that the ua season fade is fast coming to a close. only lost the last 2, as opposed to previous years. au never had that issue--we lose randomly, throughout the year. i prefer your situation--it is correctable (correctible?).
scott...
I'm not usually superstitious...
However, since I received my HABOTN t-shirt Alabama hasn't done well..
I'm going to sacrifice that sucker before signing day..
"there ought to be clowns". what was that song? michale jan terri, i will gladly send you a hair covering today for a kind word tomorrow.
were not going to make 500 =(
fsj, i am rather superstitious. since 2004 we've had a hawk living in our rather residential (built in 1978) 'hood. it stopped showing up last year. the past two weeks it has been back, sweeping up varmints like you wouldn't believe. in past years, when it circled my house, we won. i think he/she is back for good and au has a good year, just based on that. not as scientific as the recruiting wars, i know.
jhag..
I'm sure some folks can post a few more "lovin tebow" posts to get us over the top...
HAHA seriously Faker, talk about man-love
490
I heart Tim Tebow...there...for the cause. For someone who hates tebow, you sure like to talk about lovin on him, faker.
^^^^^ Exhibit A ^^^^^
Why are successful people hated? Tebow ... what is there to hate exactly? If my son were old enought to get it, I would say "Be like that guy." As far as trash talking - you're kidding right? It's a game built around testosterone and adrenaline. What are you supposed to do? Bow and Curtsy? Admit it. You wish you were Tim Tebow.
Thank you, Phreddy! You come through for me again.
I don't wish I was Tebow. I'm perfectly happy being myself.
My disdain for him comes from the all Tebow...all the time mantra we get from the media regarding him.
Is he a great player? No doubt.
SO - I guess you would prefer they talk more about Charles Barkley getting a DUI because he ran a stop sign because he was late for a BJ.
I asked a rhetorical question. I already know the answer. And in the immortal words of Forrest Gump, "that's all I got to say about that."
Two points from last nights game that jump out at me...before that game Oklahoma had 22 TD drives this year under 60 seconds, Auburn had less than 22 TD drives this year total.
The announcing: I'm glad the BCS is going away from Fox. It's pretty sad when the 5 biggest games of the year are being broadcast by people who haven't broadcasted or even watched college football since the same games last year.
Thoughts on FOX ...
Other than it was putrid...
You gotta know that Jimmy Johnson is thinking "This check has got to be huuuuge to sit next to this buffoon Barry Switzer."
It's bad enough for the announcers to lose track of the down, but where was someone -- anyone -- in the truck paying close enough attention to what was on the screen -- the blasted down marker that said 3rd down ... and their own graphics that said 3rd down ... until they changed them to the incorrect down.
I'm not for monopolies, and ESPN drives me up a freakin' wall, but I'm ready to issue an order that says ... ESPN covers everything in sports with the following exception ... CBS covers the Masters. And Johnny Miller gets to cover the U.S. Open wherever he's employed.
Good morning, Hotties! I agree, the announcers were just BAD. A player was grabbing his hamstring and the announcer said it was a knee injury. Another player was grabbing his calf and the announcer said it was an ankle injury. And the color guy just wouldn't SHUT UP. I will be glad when ESPN has all the bowl games.
That was such a great game last night that I fell asleep at the start of the 3rd quarter and caught the winner on ESPN this morning for my workout. 4:30 am workouts are taking some getting used to, especially the going to sleep at 10pm.
From what I've been told, Fox does NASCAR well. From what I've watched they do pro football well. Last night's "broadcast team" .......SUCKED, with a capital SUH. And oddly enough I was a little concerned when they had troubles talking to each other at the very beginning of the friggin game.
By the way, if I were a fan of the ACC I would let everyone I know understand why the ACC is down. Evidently the officials don't watch the game either.
On another note, ATL morning sports talk radio has a USC homer saying that the wrong two teams played in the BCS championship. I don't know why i didn't change the station, but traffic was light so I didn't have to listen to him spew that much.
By the way I am an SEC homer, and enjoyed the game, even though I was busy like you all trying to correct the broadcast crews mistakes, and didn't realize that Tebow was being pushed to be the President after the next 4 terms, but all the sugary gushing was a bit much. Although I would LOVE to have him on our side.
Great morning everybody!!
Tommy- Turn off 680 the fan. Listen to WSB if you have to driving in, or do like me, buy satelite radio. The Rude awakening is terrible and always has been.
I know Eddie I should stop listening to them. I do like The Zone (as long as Steak isn't on the air babbling and smacking) but I can't pick them up at the time I'm driving in usually. I do listen to 750 but have to find another station once they start rerunning their stories. Maybe the satellite radio is the way to go. If only I had the cash to do something like that.
Eddie ... finished my workout a little bit ago ... early is better.
I thought the coverage was terrible also. They were just plain Awful.
I can't hardly listen to 780 The Zone - I don't like any of their on air talent. Am forced to during lunch as they are the only locals going. If you are outside the perimeter in the early morning or late evening, you can't pick them up anyway. They must broadcast with a CB radio. From 1:00 on I like 680 The Fan. Kincade gets on my nerves at times but has some pretty insightful views at others.
I would like to bestow upon all Utah fans the title of Honorary Auburn Fans.
Reason #1:
You beat Alabama on national television.
Reason #2:
You went 13-0.
You have a conference championship.
You have a Sugar Bowl Trophy.
You are ranked #2.
Welcome to the family! WAR EAGLE!
Impressive performance here, peeps.
I fell asleep at the wheel last night and apparently somebody decided to start lobbing barbs. Glad to see someone got a community slap-down.
I'll be posting some fresh comments from Chizik around 10:30 a.m. CST.
Its apparent that Tebow fits the old saying....Everybody likes a winner but nobody likes a winner that wins all the time. I would agree with some of the above comments, how could you not hold Tim Tebow up as great role model for your kids. I am a gator hater but I talked to my son about how he conducts himself on and off the field.
Agreed Tigercowboy- He has been an outstanding role model for all kids. As a student athlete, he has dedicated his time away from the field and classroom to helping others. These guys don't have alot of spare time like most believe, and to spend it helping others is an awesome thing.
Good for you, BigMike.
I only made it through the end of the 3rd quarter. I'm more excited about the fact that it's Friday than that game.
For the Tebow haters, save some of it up because he will be back next year if I was betting man. It also appears that the gators are poised to make another strong run. I bet Urban puts some serious ants on dinky and I bet dinky burns Urban up with the "greatest coach ever" persona.
I don't mean to be circumsized ... I mean circumspect ... about Tebow, but I do get a little tired of his on-field histrionics.
Morning Hot Ones! I am jealous of those of you disciplined enough to get up at 4:30ish in the morn to workout. I just cant seem to do it consistently.
Agreed about the announcer comments. They were aweful. I tried to stay off of the Tebow bandwagon for a long time but we wore me down. His passion and competitiveness is just too appealing. He does have a charmed life but what can you do but play the hand you're dealt.
Recruiting updates anyone? How hard is it to sell AU to a 5-star recruit that almost never heard of us? Did Tubs stop trying to recruit the big timers because he got lazy or because it proved to be a waste of time? Just asking. We really need the 5-stars but they dont seem to reach their potential on the Plains these days.
I was excited about getting a visit from Randall announced but I am hearing from people I trust here in the Mob, that he is a lock to Bama. He is in heavy contact with AJ and they have even been working out together. I hope Luper can sell him on the you can be the MAN instead of the other guy. If I hear anything else I will let you know.
i have a man crush on Tebow. i can't help it. i wish we had someone like that to play for AU.
Jetzilla exactly!! You don't see NFL qb's do that
I think too many people miss something about Tim Tebow. He did not just decided to play at FLA, he was raised to LOVE FL. His emotions are real and he is not doing anything that I wouldn't do if blessed with his ability. He is as real as we may have ever seen. Remember it ain't braggin if you can back it up.
LOL OK, Jet and Jhag, I can understand, but would you turn him down if he wanted to play for Auburn?
Cowboy - Thanks for the info. I'm like you. I'm just so happy to have some "relentless" back in our recruiting crew.
Should have listened to the Brent Musburger call on ESPN Radio instead of Fox.
Did anyone notice how the coaches didn't let fire-tested Tim Tebow pass for awhile after those two interceptions? But he hit some big ones in the fourth. I don't think he will be a very QB in the pros. Not sure though.
The AJC printed a list of the best and worst of college football this year. Two of their five worst moments were Auburn related - the Mississippi State game (ugly game 3-2) and Barkley's charge of racism. To their credit they chided Barkley for calling out his own school and creating a ton of bad press. (editorial comment from me - family problems are best discussed behind closed doors.)
Cowboy - LOVE your new avatar. Very cute.
Well with the recent hires, Chizik has made Barkley look like a knucklehead.
All I have to say is: Don't push me, cause I'm close to the edge, I'm tryin' not to lose my head huh huh huh huh
Thanks...thats my little girl that loves to fish with me.
Monica, I fell asleep too. After 8:00, if I get still, I'm out. I don't know if it's a form of narcoplesy or the fact that I get up at 3:30. I am also glad it's FRIDAY!
oops...narcolepsy
Luv - Why do you get up at 3:30!?!?
up at 3:30? I'd quit my life if that were the case.
I would like to have a face to face conversation with John Longshore.
jhag,
Have you watched the Chargers and Broncos play? Rivers and Cutler have been talking trash to each other all year.
I've noticed that I get so little accomplished at the office since discovering your fine people. Is that mostly normal?
Luv's not answering. Maybe she fell asleep.
Big Mike, my productivity has steadily decreased since being on the HABOTN as well. And I get very frustrated when I actually do have work cause it keeps me from the blog.

I don't know if it's normal, but it happened to me too, BigMike. And Big Mike I sent you a present on Facebook.
Nah I better not do that -I don't know Luv THAT well.
Monica, because I have to be at work at 5:00.
Luv - OUCH!
Big Mike, I think you will find that most of the hotties agree that the habotn is addicting...
Even though I haven't been posting as much, I still constantly check it...
miztertommyd, better not do what?
Make a narcolepsy comment
But, I do get to leave at 1:30, which is nice.
go ahead...let's hear it!
Omnica, forgive me if I can't figure that out. I'm a Facebook doofus and can't bring myself to invest the time to get good at it.
It's ok, BigMike. :-)
BigMike, don't feel bad. I don't even have a Facebook account!
I'll just havet o leave you in suspense. Besides it wouldn't be funny now anyway.
I finally got Myspace figured out and suddenly needed a Facebook page. My daughters have no idea the lengths I go to protect them from the big bad world. ;)
That being said, I am officially a texting maniac.
All thumbs, all the time!
Raven Gray not enrolled for Spring per Rivals
I would think that'd be bad news wouldn't it? Ofcourse its Rivals I'll wait to hear from Jay before thinking more about Raven's decision
Shocking news about Raven Gray.
He hasn't been here for months!
No wonder TT resigned he knew he was going to have a lot problems keep his players. Maybe Tommy was a little dis-engaged. Thoughts
Raven is not at Auburn, hasn't been at Auburn, won't be at Auburn. I thought we had been through this. Sorry. I know we had a long discussion about it here; may have been in a campfire.
Apparently Jay G has not had as much sleep as I have...
So Rivals is just catching up? Very nice. Perhaps Omnica's just looking for something to say to pass the time
Not Monica...she's omnipotent!
My hunch is Raven Gray's knee was pretty much destroyed and he won't be able to play football again.
Mon,
What's your latest beef with John Longshore?
Big Mike-
I haven't done squat since becoming a "posting" hottie. At least when I just a "lurking" hottie I still got some work done. You're hosed now ;-)
mrtommyd-
I think the punishment was far worse than the crime. My stomach is just now recovering from the swill I had for lunch yesterday. I slept through dinner last night.
Possibly even hosepiped
Yep, HABOTN is the enemy of work. It's not something that can be done in moderation.
Tarheel, did someone recommend that place to you?
HABOTN= blog crack
lol Luv's I was thinking the same thing. Jay made that sound grumpier than usual.
Jay this is from your buddy Bryan Matthews @ Rivals and was posted at about 10:00 EST as "News"
"Luke Brietzke has broken the news that Raven Gray is not enrolled at Auburn for spring semester. We should have more on Gray soon."
Mr. Tommy - I don't look for things to say to just pass the time.
Sensi - RE: Longshore that goofy faux throat clearing sound he makes and his need to bring up the Barkley oral sex story way after the fact and treat it with the same juvenile touch as Fbaum.
Mrtommyd-
Someone had said it was pretty good, probably one of my native yank co-workers. "barbecue" in the name, and it is in North Carolina. Otherwise, their swill does not remotely resemble NC BBQ.
Was going to ask if that was a "water hose" or a "hose pipe"?
Morning HOTTIES!!!!
Well I am here now so let's get this Friday Partay Started!!!!
Do you think there are State Police in Oklahoma at the State Line with signs at the road blocks saying "You're not welcomed here anymore"?
"No Fly Zone in Oklahoma Air Space"
Mr. Sensible, even though yours is a "clocktower," ever since you changed your avatar, that Jimmy Hendrix song has been stuck in my head.
I don't like Tebow. I don't care if you find that offensive.
You mean the Hendrix version of the Bob Dylan song! (gotta give love to ole Bobby)
My apologies Mon - I should have absolutely known better
in other news, unemployment is at 7.2% today.
Good to see you onboard, Frankenbummer.
sorry, michael, I didn't know it was originally done by Dylan. The only version I've ever heard is Jimmy Hendrix's.
Glad to be here, sir.
Did you know that Hendrix's version was released in...you guessed it... 1968
aren't you just a wealth of musical knowledge
Luv-
here's another Dylan song to replace the one currently stuck in your head: Quinn the Eskimo... made famous by Manfred Mann
Sorry, TarHeel, don't know that one...
Jan Terri tells me all I need to know about music history. She is my Inside Man.
I know that's a musical reference, but I don't think I know that one either.
Sensi - I finally heard the live version of The Herd's "sessi". :-)
Good morning to you, Mobile. It's actually sunny here in Huntington, too. Snow on the ground and cold, but a really beautiful day.
Luv-
this doesn't ring any bells?
Everybody's in despair,
Every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here,
Everybody's gonna jump for joy.
Come all without, come all within,
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
I'm going to go sit by the pool and read the tax code.
Longshore is a poor man's Finebaum I suppose.
He's not "sessi" at all, imho.
Party day for you huh, Peter? Well you do get to sit by the pool, that can't be too bad.
I wonder if we're passing 6 before Jay gets the new thread up.
Michael, NOW it does. Thanks!
Cowherd, for all his west coast-ness, is pretty solid in my book.
whew, just in the nick of time
So close to 600... anyone want to stay around and get there anyway?
No takers? Awww man.
Why yes, this is new cologne, Michael. Thank you for noticing.
No, this dog is not mine, I am just walking it for a friend, officer. I fail to see why I should be responsible for its poop.
Michael,
I'm here. You still here? Can't do this alone!
if you're still here, let me know with a BIG 600 post!
Waiter. Excuse, me, WAITER! This soup is cold. Replace immediately with a hot bowl. What do you mean this isn't a restaurant? No I will not give you back your canteen.
Oh, and 600!
On this page, you can see a picture of Randall Cunningham cradling a baby seal... umm, excuse me, you in the back. There is no talking during story time. Please be quiet or leave. After all, we are starting a new page.
