Hey everyone. I'm in suburban Louisville, Ky., for a family event that was non-negotiable. You know that. You also know I won't be attending A-Day for the same reason. So it goes.Our man Josh "Bag" Moon will be on the scene and will provide blanket coverage of this fine event.
Before we get started, here are the facts about A-Day.
Time: 1 p.m.
Place: You Know Where
Tickets: $5. Bring cash or checks if you plan to buy at the gate. Credit not accepted.
Television: Live on CSS. It'll re-air on Sunday and Tuesday, 6 p.m.
Radio: WKKR (97.7 FM) in Auburn
Other stuff: Autograph session with The Head Coach, The Assistant Coaches and players will be held after the event.
Now we may get to business. What other items of relevance are worth watching tomorrow? Here are a few non-player issues I find intriguing:
- Line of scrimmage: We've heard plenty this spring about how the defensive front has overpowered the offensive front once stunts and blitzes are in play. How big is that advantage? Auburn's offensive line will be in the spotlight today.
- The feel of Malzahn's attack: The Tigers' new offensive coordinator has gone to great lengths to differentiate his attack from what Tony Frankin attempted to run in 2008. How big is the difference? Look for more play-action runs. As for the passing, expect more deep throws. What to expect beyond that? I have no idea.
- Coaches' behavior: Gene Chizik said all nine assistants will spend their afternoon on the sideline. It'll be interesting (to me, at least) to see how some of these guys interact with players in real-time situations. If I had to choose, I'd keep my binoculars focused on Trooper Taylor and Jay Boulware. They seem most likely to become entertainingly animated.
- The crowd: Big? Average? Are Auburn fans really geeked about things overall?
- Other things: After watching Auburn operate under Tommy Tuberville's tutelage for 10 seasons, what looks different? Do players appear to hustle on and off the field more often? Do the huddles look different? Is Meerkat Manor officially over? Do the offensive tackles use two- or three-point stances more often? How does the team operate as a unit?
No DROPS!
ReplyDeletequick draw david
ReplyDeleteThis will be the first A-Day with the wacky scoring system since Brother Oliver was the DC, correct? I always hated that system.
ReplyDeleteBoom goes the dynamite
ReplyDeleteWhat is the wacky scoring system?
ReplyDeleteOh boy ... 1 more day till Onterio can flaunt his stuff
ReplyDeleteDefense gets:
ReplyDelete7 points for a TD
5 points for creating a turnover
4 points for a sack
3 points for a blocked FG
2 points for eliciting a three-and-out
2 points for a tackle-for-loss
1 point for a blocked PAT
You're expecting big things from him, aren't you, jhag?
ReplyDeleteSo, it could possibly be a blowout defensively?
ReplyDeleteLuv it goes like this (from The Gold Mine)
ReplyDeleteThe offense will get 6 points for a touchdown, 3 points for a field goal, 2 points for an ``explosive play'' (15 yards or more), 2 points for three consecutive first downs; and 1 point for a kick conversion.
The defense will get 7 points for a touchdown, 5 points for a turnover, 4 points for a sack, 3 points for a blocked field goal, 2 points for three-and-outs, 2 points for a tackle-for-a-loss and 1 point for a blocked PAT.
Offense gets the usual points, though there is a two-point bonus for stringing together three consecutive first downs and plays that exceed 15 yards.
ReplyDeleteI'd expect the defense to "win," yes.
ReplyDeleteI asked this in the last thread, but it got lost somewhere in the 600 comments.
ReplyDeleteWill this be streamed on the net anywhere? I don't get CSS where I live
I am not familiar with the term "play-action runs." Normally play-action refers to a fake run. Is this yet another Malzahn innovation?
ReplyDeletePlay Action Run = Kodi play actions, gets scared, runs for 2 yard loss.
ReplyDeleteAlso, a goal is scored when the football is propelled through the goal posts at any height (including above the height of the posts) by way of a kick from the attacking team. It may fly through on the full or bounce through, but must not have been touched, on the way, by any player from either team. A goal cannot be scored from the foot of an opposition (defending) player. A goal is worth 6 points.
ReplyDeletemrdude: I don't think so.
ReplyDeleteplay-action runs: A non-sensical term used by me to explain an offense I haven't seen ... but believe to be a spread offense that runs a lot.
Defense is gonna murder Malzahn's boys...
ReplyDeleteAnd Onterio, yeah I'm gonna cling to him as The Last Hope for our offense
Also, also, the try is worth four points . To successfully score a try, the ball must be placed on the ground within the designated in-goal area (or on the try-line itself) by applying positive downward pressure with the hand or forearm without losing control of the ball. This is referred to as grounding the football. If the player scoring the try is also being tackled at the same time, the try must be completed before or at the moment the tackle is completed.
ReplyDeleteDavid, you've obviously had too much coffee today.
ReplyDeleteDavid, golf talk is gibberish to Monica. What you just said is gibberish to me.
ReplyDeleteHe recently won an eBay bid for a case of Jolt Cola.
ReplyDeleteFinally, a single is scored when the ball becomes dead in the possession of a team in its own goal area, or when the ball touches or crosses the dead-line, or side-line-in-goal, and touches the ground, a player, or some object beyond these lines as a result of the ball having been kicked from the field of play into the goal area by the scoring team. It is worth one point. This is different from a Safety in that the team scored against receives possession of the ball after the score.
ReplyDeleteDavid you now need to define an "ace" and how it is scored.
ReplyDeleteI'm not going to lie, I'm confused.
ReplyDeleteI told you the scoring system was wacky!
ReplyDeleteIt's actually scoring rules from Australian rules football, rugby, and Canadian football, respectively.
ReplyDeleteI haven't even started the CalvinBall references.
Seanzie, an ace is scored when a player serves the ball and it rolls into the hole without intervention by the receiving player.
ReplyDeleteI bet the more meaningful alum don't approve of the wacky scoring system, maybe they do, I have do idea!
ReplyDeletewow
ReplyDeleteJay G. are you IN this wedding or well dressed guest?
Well-dressed guest.
ReplyDeleteI had no choice. I can't stress that enough. I can't believe I won't be at A-Day -- the first signficiant Auburn football event I've missed since 1999 -- but this is where I am.
It's oKAY JAY! You the man
ReplyDeleteDon't worry about it, Jay. You're still the man around here!
ReplyDeleteYea. It happens. Thanks for the support!
ReplyDeleteA person I know in the ticket office guessed the crowd would be around 40,000. Would that be considered an enthusiastic response or not?
ReplyDeleteHIGHLY enthusiastic!
ReplyDeleteMonica, Jay G will be the sharpest dressed man there, after the groom, of course.
Moved from other thread, sorry.
ReplyDeleteHow's this for a conspiracy theory?
Caudle is THE QB. At least, he is clearly the choice of those who participated in spring drills.
Conveniently gets injured 36 hours before A-Day. Perhaps he is "too injured" to play in the game.
Burns will be given the opportunity Saturday to play himself out of the deal once and for all.
Thoughts?
Anything better then last years attendance would be considered a success, we all can agree on that,
ReplyDeleteI mean we were 5-7 last year and our coach was 5-19...
I think AU fans get high expectations fairly easy... I'm not gonna say if that's a good or bad thing
Caudle really isn't playing Saturday? What the
ReplyDeleteJet, I am a black helicopter type of man. Makes sense to me. I'm still trying to decide if Caudle being "the man" is good news or bad news.
ReplyDeleteI think Caudle could be a good QB. But only if the coaches make him come to the line of scrimmage, point at the Mike linebacker, and say to himself, "don't throw it to him."
ReplyDeleteJhag ...
ReplyDeleteDon't know if he's playing or not ... just know he "got hurt" last night as did Trotter.
But if he's the best I've got, and not very good yet, I think I'd be duck-taping him to the sideline and sending the other guys out there to flop around. Give us hope that we've got something better we're not showing kinda thing.
The only thing worse than 2 bad QBs is 3 bad QBs.
I wouldn't want to get THAT look either. Wedding was a good call.
ReplyDeleteLuv - I agree. Jay G. is always a sharp dressed man.
i will also be live blogging the events from the field via yelling things out loud. To get full coverage you must sit near me
ReplyDeleteAre you people working or something?
ReplyDeleteThe Meerkat Manor references never fail to amuse me. I laugh every time visualize it.
ReplyDeleteehyou, remember, I'm slow. What Meerkat Manor references?
ReplyDeleteGo away Bammer
ReplyDeleteat least when more bammers get together in one place it provides a needed opportunity to dilute their gene pool. sisters and cousins everywhere breathe a sigh of relief.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about the rest of you, Hotties, but I couldn't care less what goes on in Tuscaloser.
ReplyDeleteplus, the stadium is the only place on campus that most bammers are academically qualified to visit. ...and the port-a-potties outside.
ReplyDeleteInbred fiesta at bamas A day...no thanks
ReplyDeleteSociology degrees.
ReplyDeleteS'all I'm saying...
36-0 was just the start!
S'all is a word
ReplyDeleteIt is when you are a Bammer.
ReplyDeleteor when you're a complete douche
ReplyDeleteI was pumped to be at A-Day but is seems Lil'Kim has a soccer game. The wife was not to keen when I suggested we record his soccer game rather than tivo the Auburn ADAY..you know the rest of the story..
ReplyDeleteHold down the fort hotties...
War Eagle..
Haha YUP...get some
ReplyDeleteDL is the leader of a communist nation, but not his own household. Go figure
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteevery good man knows his limits.
ReplyDeleteRival as in competing for the title for having the most knuckle-draggin', cousin-marryin', delusional fans?
ReplyDeleteYes.
I get the Meerkat Manor reference now. I didn't realize Jay G. had made additions to this thread.
ReplyDeleteGa is Auburns real rival
ReplyDeleteAlamaba is an after thought
congrats on winning one out of seven.
That salsa kid is just a troll and he's not even original, it's sad.
ReplyDeleteI for one think it is pretty cool Bama packs out their stadium, and I think I would be pretty happy if we did the same. But what does that have to do with puppets?
ReplyDeleteMichael ...
ReplyDeleteAs always your points are cogent.
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteSeanzie, are any of that type of bammer original?
ReplyDeleteCaudle will be pulling the trigger for the Tigers. I have been told that CGM is more comfortable with his ability to adjust and throw the deep ball.
ReplyDeleteCowboy has proven himself in my eyes to have excellent inside sources. So, Caudle it do be.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Caudle.
ReplyDeleteMy question is whether he's playing tomorrow. Don't know yet.
What's your connection cowboy, if you don't mind me asking. I believe you, I'm just curious.
ReplyDeleteWhen is Cobra going to be banned from HABOTN one and for all?
ReplyDeleteHe's not here to talk sports. We've had to suffer two of his pseudo soulful apologies already. Enough already.
one = once
ReplyDeleteYou have to be effing kidding me. This is the one place on the planet I knew I could go and not have to worry about the pubic lice of the SEC (aka Tahde fans)....no offense to Faker. Jay G, we need to put up a fence.
ReplyDeleteFor those of you interested I will be live blogging Harrsion's live blog via interpretive dance from the sidelines.
Luv..my new avatar represents Meerkat Manor.
ReplyDeleteJGT...going to the wedding should garner you around 10,000 spousal points. I suggest that you get the coupon while still in Ky. In my household spousal points tend to disappear from the account unless I have a coupon.
I won't be attending the ADay game, but at least will be accruing spousal points.
Hoopie, I'm taking the father in law with me to A-day game. So I will be cashing in spousal points and generating them at the same time.
ReplyDeleteHoopie ...
ReplyDeleteThanks for telling me Spousal Points accrued. Shoot, I thought they disappeared 11:59 p.m. on Sundays.
You, sir, have performed a great service to mankind.
Some folks just have really good inside track on inside 411, Jet and Cowboy in particular. Or, maybe they're most excellent guessers, I don't know. Either way, if they're selling I'm buying.
ReplyDeleteWill - I look forward to seeing your interpretive dance. Please be sure to include some of those long ribbon thingies.
Youknow for a second there I thought I had missed the daily TMOA when things started looking like the other site.
ReplyDeleteAs for the game I may or may not be there depending on whether or not wifey gets to go to the game or has to go work. I hope to hear a live blog and see some wonderful interpretive dance tomorrow.
Meerkat? Do explain please!
ReplyDeleteIs drinking at work wrong?
ReplyDeleteI'm squarely on the fence and could easily be pushed in either direction.
And hula hoops, don't forgetthe hula hoops
ReplyDeleteMeercat is a reference to the OL last year, rising up and looking back over their shoulders to the sideline to get the play.
ReplyDeleteThey looked like the meercats on "Meercat Manor."
awk...
ReplyDeleteOur offense resembled meerkats last season when they would all pop their heads up to get the play. Meerkat groups singularly look in the same direction at the slightest sounds.
AWK - doin' the meerkat, is the point where the offense lined up, got set, then stood up wathcing the coaches and other folks on the sideline gyrate. The point where the offense stopped and looked over without a clue as to what was going on, is the meerkat portion.
ReplyDeleteI do believe it is at that point that the defense realized it was an off tackle run for minus two yards that was being called.
Drats, beat again.
ReplyDeleteHi, you're just hurtin' yourself with this rambunctious behavior.
ReplyDeleteSon, you got a panty on your head.
ReplyDeleteMeerkat Manor was kind of entertaining. I kept waiting for a trick play where they snap the ball while most of the offensive linemen are looking to the sideline.
ReplyDeleteYou know Steve, I was always hoping that they at one point wouldn't even turn. Since the opposing defense never got ready until after the meerkat, they were pretty much just walking around unawares. It would have been cool just come up to the line, just snap it and run up the middle for about ten or fideen yards just to keep the other folks honest. That however wasn't to be.
ReplyDeleteTo add to your "Other" section: Will the DB's turn their head and try to make a play on the ball?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteWell, we were a shade predictable last year.
ReplyDeleteDefenses just had to fill their gaps and chase to the motion side. Every single time.
Personally, I like the wacky scoring system. The only problem I see with it is how we talk the other 12 teams we play this season to allow these points. If so, I think we have a chance of going undefeated.
ReplyDeleteMy all-time favorite play ... and we ran it a bunch with Kodi ... the outside option to the short side of the field.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like running full speed toward the edge of a cliff.
Steve,
ReplyDeleteIt's how we beat State 3-2 last year.
Got a name for people like you, Hi. That name is called recidivism.
ReplyDeleteRee-peat O-fender.
Not a pretty name, is it, Hi?
hundy
ReplyDeleteDB's not looking for the ball was more of a Muschamp era trend.
ReplyDeleteI see no person named Hi.
ReplyDeleteYou know where to find me. In the Maricopa County Maximum Security Correctional Facility for men. State Road 31 Tempe Arizona. I'll be waitin!!
ReplyDeleteI think the Franklin Experience should get more credit. I am working on my telling of the tail for my grandkids.
ReplyDeleteBack in 2008 we brought in a new offensive coordinator that installed an offense like nothing I have seen before. First, he had all our big powerful linemen slim down. He then had them look to the sidelines before each snap as if to ask, what do we do? The center would then snap the ball. The QB would fake a hand off, pretend to go back to pass. The offensive linemen would provide lookout blocks. Then the QB would run for his life. The OC then explained how big of an idiot he was. The end.
Can we leave work now?!? Please?!?!?!
ReplyDeleteMonica ...
ReplyDeleteHi is the nickname of H.I. McDonough. Hi was the lead character in "Raising Arizona." It's Ehyou's avatar.
Jet, you have to take it further...one of my favs from that movie.
ReplyDeleteYou're not just telling us what we want to hear?
No, sir, no way.
'Cause we just want to hear the truth.
Well, then I guess I am telling you what you want to hear.
Boy, didn't we just tell you not to do that?
Yes, sir.
Okay, then
My name is H. I. McDunnough...The first time I met Ed was in the county lock-up in Tempe, Arizona...

ReplyDeleteI was in for writing hot checks which, when businessmen do it, is called an overdraft. I'm not complainin', mind you; just sayin' there ain't no pancake so thin it ain't got two sides.
ReplyDeleteSecond favortie quote from that flick comes from Glen....
ReplyDeleteSay that reminds me, how'd you get that kid so darn fast? Me and Dot went in to adopt on account a' somethin' went wrong with my semen, and they said we had to wait five years for a healthy white baby. I said, "Healthy white baby? Five years? What else you got?" Said they got two Koreans and a negra born with his heart on the outside. It's a crazy world

ReplyDeletewhen it gets to 5 o'clock I still have 3 hours of work left.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad Harrison, when I leave at 5 I get to go fight Atlanta traffic for 35 miles so I should be getting home probably around the same time you do.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather be in my car tommy. At least I can drink beer in there.
ReplyDeleteBest line:
ReplyDeleteEdwina's insides were a rocky place where my seed could find no purchase
Meerkat Manor often preceeded a failed end-around run.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Will the stench play ... I mean, stretch play ... be a major part of this AU-Gus-
ReplyDeleteT offense.
oh
ReplyDeleteHi All!
ReplyDeleteLong time no... post?
I'm wearing my HABOTN shirt to A-Day, but if you come up to me and say, "are you Aubie?" I will deny everything!
Then, you will wonder, "was that Aubie, or did the dude really not know what I was talking about."
I love a well thought out diabolical plan.
YEAH!!!!
ReplyDeleteAubie ...
ReplyDeleteWe know you'll be wearing your prototype orange jersey.
Aubie, i would rather you wear that big red-assed monkey suit if you can
ReplyDeleteHahaha!
ReplyDeleteQuick thoughts
ReplyDelete- Michael, you have the funniest blog on the planet. One part of me wants to know you, but the other part of me wants to run.
- Jay, for the love of all that is holy, ban Salsa Shark now! Send him back to al.com and Auburn Undercover where he can flame all day.
- The Pina Colada song may be the cheesiest song in the history of songs. The dude is trying to cheat on his "lady" with his own "lady". Then they laugh about it. He should be kicked in the nads.
- Favorite Raising Arizona quote
Do these balloons blow up into funny shapes?
Not unless round is funny.
I will probably be doing yard work. But unlike Aubie, if one of you by chance walks into my yard and says, "Are you michael from HABOTN?", I will admit everything.
ReplyDeleteI've missed you, Aubie!
ReplyDeleteI am going to wear my red arse monkey suit with my prototype orange HABOTN jersey.
ReplyDelete... then I will deny that I am Aubie
Aubie ...
ReplyDeleteNot so sure that would help the lyrics.
"Do you like Pina Coladas ...
... and gettin' kicked in the crotch?"
Maybe. Maybe not.
Thanks for the love, Aubie. And also thanks for the pink ape butt.
ReplyDeleteI've missed you too Monie.
ReplyDeleteToo bad you're not on Face Book; we could stay in touch.
michael,
ReplyDeleteWhy aren't you going to A-Day?
Jet- may answer to those 2 questions is a resounding "NO". The song actually works better for me like that
ReplyDeleteAubie ...
ReplyDeleteBWAAHAHAHAHA
Michael, sign me up for a case of Femicards packaged in edible panties. I saw that the Indigo Girls are going to be at City Stages and I'm planning on raking in the dough!
ReplyDeleteyou suck
ReplyDeleteMonie, just kidding. Still resisting the FB urge. Everyone tells me to join and then they get arrested and sent to jail for trying to get girls to send them nekkid pictures.
ReplyDeleteYoungPJ - it takes months of planning and tons of effort for me to make 1 game during a season. Not worth all the trouble to make it to practice.
ReplyDeleteAubie - Just let me go to Walmart and get all the packages ready. I'll sell them to you at the discount price of $14 per pack. You should make quite a profit at the concert.
Do you live in a far off land, michael?
ReplyDeleteGotta run.
ReplyDeleteMake sure to say "hi" if you see me the game... so I can deny that it's me.
Do you like Pina Coladas ...
ReplyDelete... and gettin' kicked in the crotch?
So you think I'm gonna be
On your bedpost a notch?
You wanted to cheat
I've known that of course
So I'll take all your stuff
When I file for divorce.
Huntsville, Young PJ. But I gots young kids and not a lot of disposable income.
ReplyDeleteDo you like Huntsville? I have heard some good things about but have actually never been there.
ReplyDeleteI'm graduating with ME degree so I'm guessing there would be some job opportunities there for me some day.
junk punch
ReplyDeleteDouble standard? She ran the ad in the first place. Too bad she doesn't have any nuggets to kick.
ReplyDeleteI hate Pina Coladas, but that song is bad @ss.
ReplyDeleteIf you guys see another guy staring at Harrsion and then trying to act out what he is saying in interpretive dance, I'll deny it's me. Unless you think I look cool and want to hang out with me for the rest of the day. And maybe go out for a beer sometime, you know if it's cool with my parents.
I like pina coladas but I hate to be caught in the rain and cape cod is much too cold for that kind of activity.
ReplyDeletenothin' like a pink arse monkey to brighten up a friday.
ReplyDeleteI'd rather not ban people. I'm of the opinion that people will behave eventually.
ReplyDeleteWeird being in someone else's church.
I've been in catholic churches exclusively...
JG, are you live blogging from a church?
ReplyDeleteWho is coming to A-Day? and of those people, who wants to watch Harrison and Will drink way too much and say hilarious things. Also our friend Jason will cook you food
ReplyDeleteQuestion for the guys in here...Linda Cohn, yeah or nay?
ReplyDeleteTo whoever (whoMever?) asked:
ReplyDeleteHuntsville is a good area. I live in Madison, right next to Huntsville and I like it very much so.
I'm indeed live blogging from a church in Louisville.
ReplyDeleteFSJ,
ReplyDeleteWe should put you in charge of convincing your "brethren" of staying in line.
I'll try to say hilarious things but when I get boozed up most of my jokes usually offending someone and I end up having to call their boyfriend/ husband/ kindegarten teacher and apologize.
ReplyDeletelinda Cohn: nag.

ReplyDeleteGoldberg - Trotter has torn ACL.
ReplyDeleteThat for sure narrows down the QB race.
I read the article. Anyone else concerned over the number of knee injuries on that list?
ReplyDeleteWow Trotter out with an ACL injury. It looks like one of incoming QBs might get a serious look after all
ReplyDeleteAnyone seen a list of the projected recruits who will be in attendance besides lattimore?
ReplyDeleteWow, I learn so much from HABOTN, and now I know why Jay hasn't banned me.
ReplyDeleteBy the way Jay, I agree with your banning philosophy. In general, I think we can use peer pressure to beat people into submission. Resistance is futile and also voltage divided by current.
I saw a long list of recruits showing up this weekend somewhere. It may have been PM on Undercover. The list was very extensive and it looked like there were a half dozen or so offensive linemen.
ReplyDeleteI was looking for a list as well.
ReplyDeletehttp://auburn.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=109&tid=122533951&mid=122533951&sid=884&style=2
ReplyDeleteI went ot rivals to look at visitors and in the bunker (not a member) they have a list. To long to past here and I think Jay might not like it. Hopefully this link will get you there.
Three names that I was hoping to see on a list are WR Jeremy Richardson, LB Barry James and LB
ReplyDeleteLaDarius Owens but I hear that they will be at the evil empire's game. That really sucks because these kids grew up AU fans. I know it doesnt mean that bama is a leader for them anymore than 5* Marcus Lattimore coming here means that for us but I sure ish they were in AU tomorrow.
sucks for trotter, but this won't affect his playing time this fall. Zero is still zero, you know?

ReplyDeleteI can't believe ESPN is televising the Bama A-Day game. We should all go to it wearing orange and blue. That would teach them. Each time the scored a touchdown, we could scream touchdown Auburn, too. That works for me.
ReplyDeleteReggie hunt and Ken Adams also.
ReplyDeleteThanks WTC! I wish I recognized more names on that list.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I have seen, it appears the Auburn coaches are getting top notch talent to visit. I read somewhere about one of the best RBs in the nation coming for a visit, and it wasn't the guy from Texas. It is an SC boy.
ReplyDeleteIf this staff can coach, we should be pretty good in 2 or 3 years.
5* RB Marcus Lattimore is coming. He cancelled his visit to the LSwho spring game to come to the ours.
ReplyDeleteso trotter's injury was non-contact. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteJust saw the vid on AL.com..
ReplyDeletewhat is up with Lup and the tongue thing??? it is like a nervous tic..
Sucks ace for Trotter!
ReplyDeleteTrotter will be the next Brandon Cox and stay at Auburn until hes like 24
ReplyDeleteJhag strikes again!
ReplyDeleteTrue stories told here though
ReplyDeleteWhen did Trotter get the injury? Could that be what's narrowed down the QB race, or was it after the staff had already decided on Burns and Caudle?
ReplyDeleteTrotter has the same luck that Brodie Croyle had.
ReplyDeleteI know one of Croyle's knee injuries was non contact and I think the one in high school was too. Hope Trotter gets well soon.
With that said, I hope your team has their biggest win of 2009 on Saturday.
Also...All you other Bama fans should behave.
ReplyDeleteYou are giving me a bad name over here.
does anyone know if dish network has CSS?
ReplyDeleteAnd Auburn baseball is losing to USC 6-3 in the 6th
ReplyDeleteI don't think so, bark.
ReplyDeletewell that's a bummer...
ReplyDeleteguess i will find something else to do tomorrow because there's no way i'm watching the infidels.
CSS is Comcast Sports South
ReplyDeletean exclusive Comcast broadcast.

ReplyDeleteYears ago when I lived in Huntsville we had a group of Auburn and Alabama friends that could kid without getting mad or
or saying stupid or hurtful things. Haven't found that here in the Gadsden area.
I live a short distance from the southside bridge off of Whortbend Rd.
Whortonbend is the correct spelling
ReplyDeletedigger,
ReplyDeleteYou aren't looking close enough. I live in Rainbow City...We have a great group of Bama and Auburn fans. We talk trash to each other but it's all in good fun.
just read that digger..comcast/charter. i had been thinking it was college spors south. oh well..
ReplyDeletei just got the 2005 sugar bowl in the mail from netflix...guess i can watch that in replace of a-day.
We had some pretty good fans both ways when I was working but now I am retired and due to circumstances with my wife I do not get out as often so I have to put up with a couple neighbors that we don't talk football.
ReplyDeleteAre we at 200 yet
ReplyDeleteTurn page please
ReplyDeletei've watched one drive of the 05 sugar bowl and i saw more big plays than i did all of last year...so depressing
