Checkin' in
Hey everyone. Jenna says hello.
(I know she's wearing too much eye liner. We'll confer about that.)
There isn't much going on. I wrote a swell running story for tomorrow's editions (with no Auburn angle) and that has been my focus for a few days.
Running is good. It promotes health.
I'll start a series looking at the coaches beginning Friday. I'll pick a guy, we'll examine his background, a memorable quote and my thoughts about the guy. You can disagree. I don't mind.
So that's all I have to say right now.

Jet, that was a year before I moved here. Please elaborate...
Jet. That was my first AU/Bama game as a student
Sensi thank goodness I am wearing my Depends! SNORTTTTT
Ed Scissum has been my favorite Bama player since that day.
I remember that one well.
Luv ...
Bad UAT team leads pretty good AU team in the fourth quarter in Jordan Hare 17-15 in the final minute of the game. AU needs a win to win the SEC West and go to Atlanta.
UAT faces 3rd down. All it really has to do is run the ball, take the delay of game, or a timeout, and punt the ball to Auburn. We would have had maybe 25 seconds to go the length of the field for a FG.
Instead, UAT runs some sort of throwback screen, Ed Scissum fumbles, we recover and kick the go-ahead FG.
Scissum, though, runs the kickoff back into AU territory, and UAT sends a kicker who's never been out there before for a LONG FG. But it is no good. We win. UAT loses. The UAT offensive coordinator is fired before he's in the locker room. Dubose says he didn't know what they were going to run on 3rd down, which should have gotten him fired.
The only time I ever yelled in anger at my father was after that game as I heard him apologize to UAT fans, saying they deserved to win. I told him, "Don't ever -- EVER! -- apologize to them. They don't deserve ANYTHING!"
Well Jet, you were in the right on your sentiment though perhaps you shouldn't have used that volume.
Then I guess you'd have a problem with me back-handing him and pushing him down the stairs of the upper deck.
He never apologized to any cousin humpers after that.
Simma down, Jet.
Bonus points for knowing who knocked the ball loose! Hint: initials are MH.
Martavious Houston ...
Quinton Reese recovered.
Monica ...
I was joking about pushing him down the stairs.

Jet
i still love watching replays of scissum's runback. he was determined that that loss not get blamed on him. i wonder if the bammers do blame him?
Jet- wow! I don't believe a hint was required. I will buy you a greater than 6% alcohol beer in exchange for the bonus points. You may redeem any time you are in B'ham.
i liked watching Scissum cry like a small girl afterwards
I'm a cheaper date than that. A diet Dr Pepper will suffice.
That's really cheap. I can just nab one of those from Mrs. Chocolate's stash (which is taking up room in my beer fridge anyway).
Actually, before that play, Mrs. Jet and I were seated three rows from the top of the upper deck in seats I had paid too much to obtain.
She was sitting down, her head buried in her hands. I was standing up arms crossed. Teeth clinched. I had just touched her back and said softly, "It's over. We're not gonna win this game. I can't believe we're losing this game."
Then I saw Freddy start to pass, and my eyes got larger and larger. Then the ball came loose. Wow.
After that game, I was in the locker room getting ready to walk out onto the field to help get the equipment in from off the field and I heard "Please do not throw the goal post onto the Alabama Locker room" blaring from the loud speaker. I ran out of the locker room to see that the student's had carried the goal posts to the top of the endzone seats and had it halfway out over the edge. That is the memory of that game that is still etched in my head.
bammers deserve stds, fleas, flat tires, warm beer, skin rashes, irs audits, intestinal blockage, hard drive failure, losing to ULAMO, hangnails, e. coli, stale potato chips, hunting accidents, well-done steaks, decaf coffee, paper cuts, backed up septic tanks, finebum, rouge boosters, ncaa sanctions, humping their cousins and most of all losing AU.
I was seated in the end zone where the winning field goal came through - nice view!
I vote for Chip Chip for front page!
Chip Chip ... I am proud to be in your neighborhood. Do you shoot menacing dogs? I mean, if necessary?
Chip - decaf coffee? Really? To me that's harsh even for those people.
Norm's going soft in his old age.
if the dog has a bammer collar or scarf or sweater on, yes i would euthanize it. but only after i kicked it.
...and that should have read "losing TO AU."
Jet - I know someone (I suspect you do too) that has shot menacing dogs. Of course, he carries a badge and claims to have some authority. I wonder sometimes just how "menacing" some dogs were.
decaf coffee and non-alcoholic beer are like sex without the orgasm. no point...
Don't say it, Jet. Don't.
Good boy.
Chip - I didn't know one of those even existed. I love this HABOTN, I'm constantly learning me some stuff.
Preach on it, Brother Chip.
I hate Bammer.
Sensi - As I was just driving into my office I laughed at your call AGAIN. I love the new hate in you.
I learned from Jet and tapped in to my formative years where I was inundated with "Bear" and "Bammer" talk from every corner.
I don't want Bammer beat - I want Bammer eviscerated!
I soooo don't want to be at work.
jet, if the dog was wearing bammer gear sould that be considered animal cruelty and neglect by the owner as well as menacing by the dog? i'm pretty sure i would be in the clear no matter how i dispatched the mutt.
and bammers deserve neighbor's dogs that bark all night and at every little sound you make in your backyard.
hey wait a minute - I drink decaff
Monica, you're not going to add any other items from Chip Chip's list to Finebaum and decaf, are you?
scottchoc- i e-mailed a guy in Auburn who owns a beer/wine shop about when he could get the new beers. He emailed back and sain it will take him about 3 months.
three months, that sucks!!
Harrison ...
You can celebrate the opening of football season with the execution of some allegedly freed hops.
Sounds like a few more trips to Columbus for you, Harrison. I'll have to call around up here next week. I went to the J. Clyde here in B'ham on Wednesday night for my good beer fix. They have a very impressive selection on tap, plus a cool atmosphere.
Chocolate Scott - Giving up cousin humpin' is going to be rough, but I'll work on it. Well, after this weekend.
Jet,
You have mail.
I will be in the 'ham next weekend. Maybe J.Clyde will have some. Plus I have never been there and would like to go
Monica - nice! Lots of cousins in town for the holiday weekend, I take it?
Choco ...
She's in West Virginia. They're all related.
Scott - I live in WV. There are always humpin cousins nearby.
Get your own material, Jet. Besides, living in da gump, you should hush up.
Can't blame Auburn fans for being happy with the new beer laws.
You'll need the extra alcohol per volumn to make it through the pain that's coming next season.
I'm convinced more everyday that Alabama won't lose a game and that Auburn will go O-fer in the SEC.
Saban has teh state's recruits on lock and he's got Tinurcee and Awbarn tied to the whipping post.
Roll Tide!
Thanks to the Vets for Memorial Day!
Hey all - I just needed to chime in.
Mon - I love the pic!!
That is all.
You are correct, Monica.
Wherever 2 or 3 UATs are gathered ... it could be a family reunion.
Also known as "Bammer Speed Dating."
I love spell check or lack there of.
You are too kind, AU1. Thanks you.
I try.
Have I stated that I hate bama lately? Well I do. That is all.
I hate those frickin' Bammers.
Junior year just completed for the HAG.
Sensi - was that you??????
Commit JHAG ... we need you ... Fall of 2010 ... Hag! Hag! Hag!
The limo is outside.
congrats Hag
That was me, Mon.
Congrats, JHag!
jhag, I'm here when you make a decision about college. We can break the news right here.
I can see JHag sitting at the table with three hats -- an Ole Miss cap, a Houndstooth hat, and an Auburn hat.
He picks the Ole Miss hat, and goes "Giggity! Giggity! Giggity" mauls the nearest female, but tosses it aside.
Then he gives the Houndstooth hat the Michael "cooler" treatment, then slaps on the Auburn hat and makes his commitment.
JHAG and Auburn, a combination like RC Cola and Moonpies. They just go together.
Sensi- Did you make and afternoon radio appearance? Of all the days to have "real" work to do :)!
And he was fantastic, Eddie.
Mrs. Finebaum CLEARLY does not give Mr. Finebaum enough "attention".
Must be a virus.
I think Finebaum needs to go to the office.
I was thinking more like behind the barn.
And I don't even listen.
I hope you're not referring to Monica's office. That made me throw up a little bit in my mouth.
To quote you Monica
"snort"
Hey, Monica ... trying to have it both ways?
F-Bomb's ya boy! Remember!
All this Finebaum talk reminds me of how aware I've become of the use of the F word among the young in our society. I hear that from the younger generation multiple times a week and I often wonder when that became so "accepted."
Sensi, profanity has become common place. It amazes me how much of it I see on line. Most of the time I take it to be kids crying for attention, but I see it from adults too. I am not sure when our society became so insecure and people lost the pride in themselves. It does make me question our educational system when people choose to use such language.
Just because I listen to Fbaum does NOT mean I want him in my office. You better slow down on that kind of logic, Jet.
