digger4au said...: I have no ill feelings for Lowder but people in his postion olways seem to float on top while others crash.; 7:27 PM
Dear Leader said...: I think I am goign to go watch the wedding singer...

ciao, ciao, ciao; 7:30 PM
digger4au said...: Digger is a thread killer
Digger is a thread killer; 7:30 PM
Monica said...: That was lovely, DL.; 7:31 PM
Anonymous said...: After Jetgate, Mr. Lowder employed the CEO art of stealthy disinformation, all in an effort to avoid the appearance of interference. The interference after Jetgate was real and all aimed at turning the fans against CTT. Such efforts were successful.

As far as the future...JGT has already stated that he is a powerful man and will continure to wield influence. JGT must have some inside info in order to make that statement...so I'll accept it.; 7:35 PM
Monica said...: I promise that if I with the $230 Million Powerball I will use my powers for good.; 7:37 PM
Anonymous said...: Mon...you could buy Tubs lake house and use it for recruiting hospitality during recruiting season.

The bad news....recruiting is now year round.; 7:40 PM
Anonymous said...: We've calculated that $5 mil minus taxes and tithe will do us nicely. Any more than that can be spread around. Of course, I guess I would have to actually buy a lottery ticket to win.; 7:43 PM
Monica said...: If I win I will buy that house for you and Mrs. Hoopie, Hoopie.; 7:47 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: I plan on winning the $148MM lottery tonight. I'll be arriving in Auburn on Sunday in my my own Tiger Prowl Limo.; 7:48 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: Coming soon to a HOTTIE near you: HABOTN hats!; 7:57 PM
Anonymous said...: Mon..thanks for the offer, If such happens we'll be happy with a weekend for a fishing, hot tub and party with friends experience.

I would honestly be afraid to win that much.; 8:04 PM
Anonymous said...: Hats?...Hats? that's what I'm talking about. Count me in for several.; 8:06 PM
Anonymous said...: Gonna go hang with the neighbors...Eddie give Kodi a fist bump for me and remind him that he is a good Auburn man and we are rooting for him.; 8:08 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: The Hats look sweet. I'll be placing my order as soon as they accept!; 8:09 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I would like a hat, yes. I hope it looks nice. I prefer New Era or The Franchise. It'd be really sweet if they were New Era 39-30s.; 8:09 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Will do Hoopie! Have a good time with the neighbors!; 8:09 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: PF, of course you've got to be picky! they're high quality, i promise. mrs. scottie b gave her full approval earlier tonite!

oh, and i'm real close to getting those doggie jerseys done. i forgot the shirts at home this morning or i would've had them to show ya.; 8:11 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 8:15 PM
cincytiger said...: ok, not to be dense, but how did I miss seeing the hats?; 8:19 PM
mytommyd said...: Hat for me, as well!! Just lemme know how and where to send info and monies; 8:19 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: just kidding PF. i'm one of the pickiest fellas out there about my attire. i can't rock a bowtie but....

they're from Pacific. they're my favorite cap company we sell. their website is www.pacificheadwear.com.

have i ever let you down PF? WAIT, don't answer that!!!!; 8:20 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Cincy- Did you not receive your ovaltine decoder ring yet?; 8:20 PM
cincytiger said...: No, I feel so out of the loop, so not in the know; 8:21 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: don't worry Cincy. you're not going nuts. i just got all the info to JG within the past hour. he just gave ya a teaser.; 8:21 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Which model?

I'm not one to complain, really.; 8:25 PM
cincytiger said...: Things are hopping around here this weekend. I am hosting my son and 9 of his friends from Auburn. They have a couple of friends from Auburn getting married this weekend here in B'ham. Tyler started at the first of the week asking if he and a friend could stay here. By last night it was up to 10 kids - 4 girls & 6 guys. I had kids sleeping everywhere. So fun!; 8:26 PM
Norm said...: Will said hats be making an appearance on Sunday?; 8:28 PM
Quitstina said...: Hats? Where can I see said hat?; 8:29 PM
mytommyd said...: HABOTN Hats - that woke us up didn't it!!; 8:30 PM
Quitstina said...: I'm pretty picky about my hats though. Not sure I could buy one without seeing it on first.; 8:32 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Kristina- The hats look lovely....they are just like the Saban hat on SI Cover this summer.; 8:38 PM
Quitstina said...: Fabulous, Eddie. I can wear the heck out of a straw hat...uh, or something.; 8:44 PM
michael said...: Hoopie - you're earlier description of Lowder wielding power makes me laugh. I was a huge Tubs supporter, but I thought he needed to make changes to the staff or else. That was the offer the board gave to Tubs. Make changes and you can stay. Lowder wanted him gone unconditionally. Lowder's position did not win out in that situation.

Also, according to some sources, Lowder's pick was Houston Nutt for coach, not Chizik.

So two huge decisions were made last year, and Lowder got his way on neither. His backdoor finagling influenced the university the same way the internal SGA politicking does - minimal influence on real world results. But noy, politicking sure makes us feel special and it's fun, isn't it!

However, the money he donated had a very good real world effect on the university.; 8:47 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: aw Eddie, now that's just plain mean. Norm, they will be making an appearance this weekend...that is if JGT doesn't track me down & steal them from me.

Kristina, i'll be at Fan Day sunday. Eddie & Norm will be there too if you wanna check 'em out. again, that is IF JG doesn't take 'em. he's the boss, so....

PF, i'll get ya the style numbers.; 8:48 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Yeah, of course I was just kidding. Though, a nice Habotn Straw Hat would be nice if I had a front porch, a rocking chair and a glass of iced tea.

Or I could be a golfer from the late 80's.; 8:48 PM
michael said...: cincy - I hope you hold a very tight curfew (10:00 or so is a good idea) and make sure there's no funny business between those girls and boys! Your house, your rules! Darn kids.; 8:49 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: speaking of hats, Jan Terri needs a new hat in the worst way.; 8:49 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Michael- I don't think you are correct on the Lowder and Houston Nutt deal. That was pure Jimmy Rane from all i've heard. Lowder listened to Dye and went with Chizik based on Dye's opinion, sorry, but Lowder still is the leader, but he has learned since Jetgate to not be so out in front of things and have them tied directly to him, SACS and all.; 8:51 PM
Quitstina said...: If I wanna check out Eddie and Norm or the hats at Fan Day?; 8:52 PM
Norm said...: Scottie B - remember how to pick me out of the crowd.; 8:53 PM
FSJ said...: I'm thinking of wearing my Saban straw hat when I hit the club around midnight tonight...; 8:55 PM
Quitstina said...: Good luck with that, Faker.; 8:58 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: FSJ- The only club you are hitting at midnight with a young one is the replay of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.; 8:58 PM
FSJ said...: Good point Eddie...

I'll sleep in my straw hat then.....; 8:59 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Not that many care except maybe Kristina, but I now have a trip to Disney World booked for February and March to go along with my December trip. I'm loving the annual pass.; 8:59 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Don't worry FSJ, i'm Hot Diggity Dogging it with you.; 9:00 PM
Quitstina said...: Sooooo jealous! When are you going in December?; 9:00 PM
MaryBeth said...: HABOTN hats = off da chain; 9:03 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Arrive the 11th and leave the 20th. Looking forward to the long trip and stay at Wilderness Lodge. Wilderness Lodge is awesome at Christmas time. Can't wait.; 9:04 PM
wes said...: dang it...it's not Mary Beth it's me...Wes. Hate it when the wife gets on the laptop.; 9:04 PM
FSJ said...: Lol..I was wondering who Mary Beth was....; 9:05 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Dang, I thought we had attracted another true Hottie in Mary Beth!; 9:06 PM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: Dang. Braves lose it in the 9th off a HR by Ryan Howard.; 9:07 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: I posted this earlier today, but I believe it is worth the repost if you didn't see it before. This is an article my brother did for the blog regarding Kodi Burns. You won't regret reading it, and I just wanted to make sure you had the chance.

Kodi Burns is an Auburn Man; 9:08 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: Norm, i remember. haha.

seriously, shoot me an email and get my digits. i dig meeting/chatting with live hotties.; 9:10 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: you too Kristina.; 9:10 PM
MaryBeth said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 9:11 PM
Quitstina said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 9:11 PM
FSJ said...: zoo keeper? are you a Disney fanatic too?; 9:12 PM
Scott M. Brannan said...: speaking of straw hats, there's a pic of Malzahn wearing one on www.auburnsports.com's front page. how about that timing?!; 9:13 PM
Quitstina said...: Yep, faker, tis true.; 9:13 PM
Monica said...: he makes that hat look good; 9:14 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Kristina- I'm jealous. I want to stay at the Poly badly and club level to top it off. I heard it is the best as far as club level's go. Maybe we will run into one another while there.; 9:14 PM
Quitstina said...: Maybe so.

I would also like to stay at the Wilderness Lodge, but we have outgrown it. Have to wait until a couple's only trip maybe.; 9:19 PM
FSJ said...: Who keeps deleting things?..it disorients me..; 9:20 PM
Quitstina said...: That would just be your local paranoid person, faker.; 9:23 PM
Unknown said...: Man, the HABOTN has become very impressive in the off season. I can't imagine how things are going to go once football kicks off. Someone needs to send a petition to the governor that HABOTN get a seat on the BOT.; 9:24 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Kristina- Have you looked into DVC? We are looking at it right now. I'm mixed emotion on it, but will probably do it, just may wait a year.; 9:24 PM
Norm said...: Scottie B - done.

Good night all. Not sleeping during the red-eye last night has gotten the better of me. Peace out.; 9:24 PM
Unknown said...: FSJ, since you are our official window into the dark side, how are you gauging the reaction of the evil empire to Todzilla? Are they willing to concede the Iron Bowl at this point, or will we have to play the game?; 9:25 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Nite Norm. See ya around.; 9:25 PM
FSJ said...: goodnight hotties...I need to get to bed before it gets too late.....I turn into grouch if I'm up late.; 9:26 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Steve- They are laughing pretty hard right now. They believe Toddzilla is like a lizard compared to Godzilla. But it won't matter, because Rollison is who they will face come Iron Bowl. Get on board the Rollison Express. It's starting to gain speed.; 9:27 PM
Quitstina said...: I have, Eddie, but I just don't know. Throws me that your ownership actually expires. Where are you looking at buying?; 9:29 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: I agree with the expiring ownership. We got our DVC info pack and I'm probably looking to buy into Bay Lake Towers if I proceed with it if I buy directly thru Disney. It and Kidani Village at Animal Lodge have the longest time before expiration period because they are the newest. I'm more concerened about expiration than home lodge, but DVC comes more appealing the older my family gets with the 1 room villa to the 2 room villa. I do like everything I have seen of Bay Lake Towers the most as the new resort, but I would be all about the beach Club or Boardwalk DVC's as well. I love the idea of being able to walk to Epcot.; 9:35 PM
WarEagleRK said...: Time for the Braves to think about someone other than Soriano closing...he's been awful the past 3 weeks.; 9:39 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Agreed Rk. Time for another option. They needed that game tonight and they need the next two even more now.; 9:40 PM
Eddie McCoy said...: Night Everyone. See ya tomorrow!; 9:41 PM
wtc said...: Eddie & Kristina- We are headed to WDW the day after Christmas and coming back the day after News Years.

When daughter was young we went about 3 times per year. Relatives work for Disney so we never buy tix and stay for 50% off any price I find on the net. Hope that makes someone jealous.
I don't go as much now but wife and daughter still go a couple of times per year.; 9:43 PM
Jay G. Tate said...: HABOTN hats are, in fact, off the chain. Yes.

I'll pass along pics at some point very soon. We're still fine-tuning the details ...; 9:48 PM
j-z said...: You know WTC, I've always felt like we were brothers, so wouldn't that make your relatives my relatives? Hook a brutha up!

I need football news. Barring that, I need senseless violence and Ambien. Not necessarily in that order; 10:01 PM
j-z said...: and some Robitussin.; 10:09 PM
Monica said...: Anyone here spend much time in Key West?; 10:11 PM
Monica said...: JA - Your wings didn't cure your ailments?; 10:17 PM
j-z said...: Eh...just feel the need for stupidity.; 10:20 PM
Aubie said...: I just finished reading "The Pleasure of My Company" by Steve Martin.
I am convinced that either a. Michael ghost wrote the book for Steve Martin or 2. Michael IS Steve Martin.; 10:21 PM
Monica said...: Aubie - Why did you read that book in particular?; 10:27 PM
Monica said...: jz = restless; 10:28 PM
Aubie said...: Monnie, because Steve Martin (and/or Michael) is a comedy genius.; 10:34 PM
Jet said...: Hello HOT ONES.; 10:37 PM
Monica said...: howdy Jet - Loved the Turbo pics; 10:38 PM
Aubie said...: Monnie,
... i'm on facebook; 10:40 PM
Monica said...: shut up!

so are you just teasing me or are you going to add me?; 10:44 PM
Aubie said...: Eddie, Norm, and Phred are my friends; 10:45 PM
Monica said...: ok; 10:47 PM
Jet said...: Mon ...

There is nothing that can cure j-z's ailments.; 10:48 PM
Monica said...: awwww don't give up on him; 10:49 PM
j-z said...: No...I think a good Robitussin and Ambien cocktail might do it.; 10:52 PM
Aubie said...: Monnie,
Request sent; 10:53 PM
Monica said...: Request denied.; 10:54 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: Sup Hotties...... I want a Hottie Hat! cuz im the pres of the FAH Club!!!! members include right now 1 O.M.; 10:55 PM

Jet said...: I wanna HOTTIE hat.; 10:57 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: Aubie, sorry no Orange Jersey's allowed!!!; 10:57 PM
j-z said...: As long as it's not a Hottie @$$hat.; 10:58 PM
Monica said...: hey hey Mobile - how ya doing?; 10:58 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: We will make a run on the HH like the latest PS-4... we will wait at the outide of Jay g's House for the doors to open in the morning to buy them!!!!; 10:59 PM
Monica said...: you know you want one, JZ; 10:59 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: I'm great Monnie, i'm getting close to coming up for air, if i can get past 9-11; 11:00 PM
Jet said...: They don't make an @$$hat big enough for Jz.; 11:00 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: j-z, dog come on when have you know the HOTTIES anything not being in the words of Monnie: "Hawt"; 11:01 PM
Aubie said...: J-Z and Monnie are my friends.

Monica said...: you'll make it, Mobile! You're a Superhero!

JZ would need a ginormous one?; 11:02 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: Aubie, you are and "Auburn Man" so iI think we can be friends also!!!!; 11:02 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: ok Monnie.... time to fess up to the other hotties, show them your super hero outfit!!!! PleZZZZZZZZZZ; 11:03 PM
j-z said...: Allegedly.; 11:03 PM
AUnMobilz (CAM-"Da Man") said...: ok here's a hint: "Perrrrrrrrrrrrrrrect"; 11:04 PM
Jet said...: As wide open as HABOTN has been lately ... Mobilz, I gotta say we need you to make it red line.; 11:06 PM
j-z said...: So...what do we do for entertainment tonight?; 11:06 PM
Monica said...: it causes too much commotion, Mobile!; 11:07 PM
Monica said...: Aubie has nice calves. :-); 11:10 PM
Jet said...: JZ ...

We could discuss:

1. Our thoughts regarding the Todd selection.
2. 2008 -- who's to blame?
3. Bobby Lowder -- an Auburn man or evil personified.
4. The Obama Health Care initiative.
5. abortion
6. Michael Vick
7. ... if you were a DQ blizzard, which one would you be?; 11:11 PM
j-z said...: I'd be a ginormous Heath bar double fudge chunkalicious blizzard.; 11:14 PM
j-z said...: And what does all of this mean for Barrett Trotter?; 11:15 PM
Monica said...: omg I could so eat a ginormous Heath bar double fudge chunkalicious blizzard right now!

grrrr; 11:17 PM
Unknown said...: Ben Tate has apparently been added to the watch list for the Maxwell Award which goes to the nations best player. There are 55 players on the list. It is nice to see him get some recognition. They guy is a good runnningback that could become great.; 11:18 PM
j-z said...: What kind of blizzard would Ben Tate be?; 11:22 PM
Jet said...: Nestle's Crunch bar ... 'cause he's tough ... not soft like chocolate chip cookie dough.; 11:24 PM
j-z said...: Jet, Did you check out my comments on ElTurbo's pantry? I'd be seriously concerned that he shares my fetish for animal crackers.; 11:28 PM
Anonymous said...: JET, after a few libations with the neighbors and at the risk of being P inC:

1. Todd...coaches made the decision fairly..let's roll

2. Too many folks can be blamed...and at this point ain't worth revisiting.

3. Mr. Lowder...He will survive....he know s how to. I wish him the best on a personal level...and that's all I will say about that.

4. Obama Health Care....no..stop Hoopie...don't say it.

5. Abortion.....check your morals, then decide.

6. Michael Vick....Hey PETA....leave the fool alone. Was never a fan, but he has paid his dues and deserves a chance.

7. Easy choice....Vanilla with OREO.

May the Hate be with you.; 11:35 PM
Monica said...: Rudy!!; 11:39 PM
Unknown said...: I hope everyone has read Eddie's brother's blog on the insider. It is was Auburn is all about.; 11:55 PM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: yep, I'm watching some Rudy. I'm ready to hit somebody. How much longer do I have to wait?

and the answer is....; 12:08 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: T-minus 21 days til kickoff!!!

Athletic and academic achievement always trump athletic achievement and incarceration.

HAPPY KARIBE DEDE DAY!!!

A native of Woodbridge, VA, Karibe Dede began his Auburn career at safety before becoming an outstanding linebacker for the Tigers. In addition to his superb defensive play, Mr. Dede achieved Academic All-SEC honors 4 consecutive years. He was named to the inaugural class of the National Football Foundation's National Honor Society. And if that wasn't enough to impress you, he was a finalist for the Draddy Trophy, the "academic Heisman Trophy". He obviously took Dr. George Petrie's Auburn Creed to heart. I'm not sure of the current whereabouts of Karibe Dede. I found a reference to a signing with the Montreal Alouettes in early 2008; the CFL web site does not currently show him listed on a roster. I also found a reference to him as a 2008 assistant coach at Freedom High School in his hometown; he is not listed on their coaching staff at this time. Anyone know what Mr. Dede is up to now? Whatever it is, I'm sure he's successful doing it.

Honorable mention:
James Brooks, one of the greatest running backs in the history of Auburn football and still, by a large margin, Auburn's career leader in all-purpose yardage. He also had an All-Pro NFL career. Had he not spent time incarcerated for being a deadbeat dad, he would have been today's honoree.

Ed Graham - his most famous moment, at least in my recollection, was the 2nd half kickoff return for a TD vs Florida State in 1984. Brent Fullwood had a great return going before coughing up the football near the 40. Ed quickly plucked the oblate spheroid out of the air and dashed the rest of the way for 6 points. In one of Auburn's most exciting games, AU nipped the 'Noles, 42-41.

Shout outs welcomed! Who's your favorite 21?; 12:08 AM
Monica said...: Nice, Dr. H - Happy Dede Day!

- I'm trying to stay awake for the end of Rudy.; 12:11 AM
j-z said...: I didn't know that about Mr. Dede's academics. Most impressive.; 12:12 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: me too. I'm giving a map lecture in less than 8 hours. I should probably get some sleep.; 12:13 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: thanks for the reminder, Mon. I'm back to plain ol' THT.; 12:14 AM
Monica said...: "Nobody, and I mean nobody, comes in to our house and pushes us around."; 12:20 AM
Tar Heel Tiger said...: Sweet dreams, Hotties. I'll be calling it a night momentarily.

Y'all have a great KARIBE DEDE DAY!!!; 12:22 AM
Monica said...: You too, THT. I'm out too after, Rudy tells me goodnight.; 12:23 AM
Aeronaut said...: Good morning

I claim this blog in the name of paris hilton, and pet rock.

I hope pet rock does not file a 'defamation by association' lawsuit against me.; 5:35 AM
Dear Leader said...: Sup Aero; 5:43 AM
Aeronaut said...: and.. happy Karibi Dede day.; 6:06 AM
Dear Leader said...: and back at you... I am going to be scarce today so hold down the fort.

cheers...; 6:20 AM
Aeronaut said...: Morning DL. I was surprised by your presence on here, so early on a Saturday morning. But then I thought about it. You are one of those ubiquitous, omnipresent entities that are beyond the realm of our human understanding. like tidal waves and the universe and traffic lights. You just exist.; 6:22 AM
j-z said...: Apparently, my need for senseless violence was unabated during the evening. I fear that this does not bode well for the members of the class I'm teaching today.; 7:19 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: First named storm of the year, Ana became a tropical storm last night. Expected to hit Florida as a Hurricane on Thursday.....I see an mid week surfing trip to the east coast in my future.; 7:59 AM
Jet said...: 1. JZ ... ElTurbo is known for biting the heads of animal crackers.

2. Hoopie, I can't believe you took the bait. But I'm glad to know that you consider yourself an Oreo blizzard.

3. I presume James Brooks would have been upset at not being the honored, but he couldn't read the blog to be offended.; 8:01 AM
Unknown said...: Jet, every kid knows you bite the heads first so they don't suffer. You nibble the toes if you want to torture them.; 8:06 AM
Anonymous said...: Interesting note.

I am watching College Football Live this morning and they discussed Todd being the starter. Said it should be good mainly because of Malzahn. But said further, someone inside mentioned that they watched Rollison and he reminded them of Reggie Slack. Hmmm.; 8:11 AM
Peter Frankenschmidt said...: I'm more of a milkshake guy myself.; 8:14 AM
cincytiger said...: We are off to Tom's bowl-a-thon for Junior Achievement. Fingers crossed for no pregnancy!; 8:34 AM
AUBigCat said...: Glorious morning Hot Ones!! What time is the scrimmage?; 9:36 AM
AUfan said...: THT, I heard recently that Dede was returning to the Auburn city school system as a special-ed teacher, and possibly helping with some coaching as well. This came from a pretty reliable source, but I can't confirm it. He was always outstanding at working with the special needs kids during his time at Auburn, so I hope this is true.; 9:53 AM
digger4au said...: Do hats make your hair fall out?
Ever notice the percentage of bald guys wearing hats?
Did the hat come first or the baldness?
I don't wear hats but hope all who do will wear the HABOTN hat with grace and pride.; 10:01 AM
Jay G. Tate said...: New thread up.; 10:09 AM
