War Karlos Dansby!
ReplyDeleteGo Kat Go!!!!
ReplyDeleteAnybody home?
ReplyDeleteI'm here IV. Everybody getting ready for a busy work and school week.
ReplyDeleteIt's been fun. Goodnight all.
ReplyDeleteCHUCK!!!!
ReplyDeleteJ-Z my man.
ReplyDeleteho-hum
ReplyDeleteDOes the defense that UNC is playing tonight on ESPN, remind anyone of the defense AU played against SoCarolina?
ReplyDeleteI finally put MS Office 2008 on my Mac today. Now I can do my work on better monitors. So long crappy old laptop.
ReplyDeleteGoodnight IV.
ReplyDeleteI wish Duke sucked this season.
ReplyDeleteIn a game with 96 points scored, of course it's a defensive play that wins it.
ReplyDeleteMrs. Jet watching "Big Love." I'm forced to sit with her, but I will HABOTN instead.
ReplyDeleteFSJ-I'm hearing Smart has taken the deal with UGA tonight. Have you heard more than just him talking to UGA?
ReplyDeleteI saw where Saban interviewed the DL coach for the Cowboys as a shot across the bow earlier today.
wtc,
ReplyDeleteI wish I had your connections. I'm just glad I am connected to you.
From the footballcoachscoop.com:
ReplyDeleteFootballCoachScoop has BREAKING NEWS and the FIRST TO REPORT that Alabama Defensive Coordinator Kirby Smart has been hired as the new
Defensive Coordinator by Head Coach Mark Richt.
After I heard the news earlier. I remembered tocheck on that site Jay posted a few weeks ago and there it was.
ReplyDeleteAl Groh to Ga Tech?
ReplyDeleteDansby's play was amazing. WDE KD!
ReplyDeleteThat is correct PF.
ReplyDeleteJet-you must have got interested in Big Love.
ReplyDeleteGood night everybody.
ReplyDeleteNo, I was just bouncing around other places ... Saban doesn't take certain ideas well, does he?
ReplyDeleteCincy, how can I get address of the student condo?
ReplyDeleteTubs salary 7.5 to 10 m for 5 years. Seems low to me
ReplyDeleteTubs' status an unemployed doesn't command him the big bucks. He's a bargain hire.
ReplyDeletewtc,
ReplyDeleteFrom what I hear you are correct. Rumor is that he is getting the infamous coach in waiting deal at UGA.
anyone got the tail number of the UGA planes? Supposedly just landed in Athens from Tuscaloosa, where it spent the day.
ReplyDeleteHi Dav4AU,
ReplyDeleteStudent condo is in Glenn Oaks Condominiums, 535 West Glenn Avenue. Unit 213. You can get my email address off of my profile. If you send me your email I can send you some details if you want them.
Can I retract my last statement, wtc,
ReplyDeleteThe Tiderinsider version of wtc just posted that according to fellow UA coaches Smart is NOT going to UGA.
I guess we will see. I did hear that Smart was pushing for a coach in waiting deal. Maybe UGA balked at that?
Rivals is apparently reporting it's a done deal...titterpeeps are saying coach in waiting was part of deal...hmmm. guess we'll find out in the morning
ReplyDeleteif only we could have a someone at PDK (or AHN) to see if he's getting off the plane right now...isn't going to affect Bama much, I fear, but will be a huge plus for UGA. Probably best for Auburn if he stays put.
ReplyDeleteI agree PF...
ReplyDeleteWon't affect UA much either way. I think everybody knows Saban runs the defense.
OK, how can he be such a help at UGA if he's &$#% on a boar hog in Tuscaloosa?
ReplyDeleteAm I missing something?
Smart wants to run his own defense so he might take the offer
ReplyDeletehttp://uga.rivals.com/barrier_noentry.asp?ReturnTo=&sid=&script=content.asp&cid=1038226&fid=&tid=&mid=&rid=
ReplyDeleteAlso, David Pollock apparently Tweeting it's a done deal.
He will definitely improved Georgia's D.
Jet, huh?
ReplyDeleteMan, Smart to Georgia would be a real kick in the Sabans.
ReplyDeleteFSJ - I get to work some of your offshore type hours soon. I get to host a call for an implementation. The call starts at 11:45p eastern and is scheduled to go to 6:00a.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the walmartians and their fearless leader will spin this. Oh wait it's already started. "Won't affect UA much either way. I think everybody knows Saban runs the defense".
ReplyDeleteIf Satan runs the defense, what was Smart doing?
ReplyDeleteYou know a walmartian when you hear one.
ReplyDeleteWe should probably blame it on the walmartians themselves. I mean if they showed more passion then Smart wouldn't want to go anywhere.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Saban runs Alabamas defense...
ReplyDeleteSmart was, you know, hanging out and stuff.
ReplyDeleteWasn't Smart an UGA grad? Is it just a case of momma calling him home?
ReplyDeleteOh wait that was already used!!!
ReplyDeleteSince the walmartians were to blame for last years loss to Utah in the Sugar Bowl, do they get credit for the win in the MNC game?
ReplyDeleteSmart went to HS in Georgia and was a UGA grad, yes.
ReplyDeleteIV, that is a very good question. I am sure Saban will be just as quick to give them credit for the win.
ReplyDeleteWhat is Dubose doing? He was a DC. He might have his will coordinate for food sign out.
ReplyDeleteYeah, right.
ReplyDeleteFSJ, all kidding aside. Do you watch extreme home makeover? It was a great episode tonight. I don't know much about your daughter, but I did read a few comments eariler. The girl on the show tonight has a condition that I think could be similar to your daughter's.
ReplyDeleteI could be completely wrong and missed something in previous posts.
ReplyDeleteDubose is apparently the defensive line coach at Memphis now. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteCH=B...I didn't watch it because I was at.....wait for it.....Wal-Mart!
ReplyDeleteI'll try to see if I can find out about the episode. Thanks!
The walmartians will spin that Smart wasn't any good. If he was, he wouldn't want to leave Coach Saban and all of the University of Alabama tradition. You know, no one but Bama has tradition.
ReplyDeleteBwahahaha, thanks FSJ. You made my night. You didn't happen to pick up a Nick Saban bobble head while you were there?
ReplyDeleteTwo of them I'll bet.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you could watch it on abc.com.
ReplyDeleteBama will be Bama. Rather than be concerned about them, I prefer to just enjoy the precious moments, such as the Walmart photo earlier.
ReplyDeleteYou know, one for the dash, one for the rear deck.
ReplyDeleteNow back to the jokes. where you really at your national headquarters? That is too funny.
ReplyDeletesorry were not where.
ReplyDeleteDon't you mean the Mother Church?
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay, I must admit I go to Walmart sometimes too. Of course, I don't tend to think of it as a location to create a shrine to Auburn, but maybe it is just me.
ReplyDeleteI'm a K Mart kind of guy. Sometimes Target.
ReplyDeleteSteve, I was there today also. However.....well I won't say anymore.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why the dollar general turned down the chance to have 6k+ walmartians come in at one time. That's like 6k they could have made.
ReplyDeleteTalk to you guys tomorrow from work. Take it easy on the walmartians while I'm gone.
ReplyDeleteDollar General can't compete with the Mother Church.
ReplyDeleteI actually was at Wal-Mart.
ReplyDeleteThe shame is etched on my face.
IV, actually K-Mart can be great at times. It is usually far less crowded. At times I use it during Christmas shopping season.
ReplyDeleteHey, I got an idea. Bama has never found a logo to go on the sides of their helmets. How about that new Walmart logo? It would be sweet.
ReplyDeleteonly good thing about K Mart is Craftsman Tools...still don't trust that they're not selling seconds that didn't pass QC for Sears, but there are some things that wouldn't be a big deal if that's the case that I've picked up there...
ReplyDeleteYea, but how would the players find their helmets without the numbers on them?
ReplyDeleteIV, you do have a point.
ReplyDeletegood evening
ReplyDeleteHi, jhag.
ReplyDeleteStill disappointed in the FSU decision, but at least you'll have years of memories from Bullwinkles. Not too shabby.
So let me get this straight. Auburn's next b-ball game (men's) is at Thompson Boling on Thursday (on ESPN no less) against Tennessee, a team that just beat #1 ranked Kansas today?
ReplyDeleteUm...uh-oh.
Saw a "brief" rumor on the rivals main board that radio in gainesville was reporting that meyer has a 23 year old girlfriend. Anybody hear anything like that anywhere?
ReplyDeleteMy 6+ hour con-call starts in 10 minutes. This is gonna be a blast.
ReplyDeleteIs Tim Tebow 23?
ReplyDeletegood one RK! ...hahaha
ReplyDeleteGood morning HABOTN!!
ReplyDeleteNothin' like a coffee mug-sized macchiato to start the day off right. umm-mmmmm.
Well....
ReplyDeleteBEASLEY!!
ReplyDeleteNothing like being on a con-call at 1:41am.
ReplyDeleteNice stand-in for pops.
ReplyDeleteYou still there 2.0?
ReplyDeleteYep, i'm still here IV. How's it going?
ReplyDeleteA story for THT when he gets up and feels like doing some catchin' up on HABOTN. Terry Beasley's first wife was a young lady here in Prattville. Terry lived here for a spell after his brief pro career with the SF 49ers. He had a landscaping business and did well with it until his marriage hit the rocks. I pass the house that they lived in on some of my walks. The last I heard anything about Terry, was about a year ago. He was not in good health, suffering from some kind of muscle disorder. I understand that he has problems using his arms and legs. What a tragedy for some one that was so athletic at one time. He no longer lives in Prattville and has been gone for some time now. I understood he was living up on Lake Martin somewhere. I can still see that bright red hair of his when he took off his helmet after catching a Sully pass for a TD. Great WR, great Auburn man, the Beas, #88.
ReplyDeleteWonderful 2.0. How are you doing?
ReplyDeleteI'm peachy; heading off to class. Ciao tutti!
ReplyDeleteYea and goodbye also.
ReplyDeleteBack to bed y'all. Later.
ReplyDeleteI feel destroyed by bitter reality some days. Usually when I'm walking out the door before 5:30. At least there's no conference call.
ReplyDeleteThere is a conference call and I'm still on it.
ReplyDeleteno, I mean for me. You situation sucking worse than mine is helping me drive to work today.
ReplyDeleteHappy to be here for you then.
ReplyDeleteMan I feel sorry for both of ya'll.
ReplyDeleteWanna trade places?
That's kind of you but I think my phone time is about to come to an end. Then hopefully it's naptime.
ReplyDeletetouche`
ReplyDeleteThat's it for me. I'm gonna try to get a nap in for a few hours. Hopefully, F4* will be somewhat cooperative.
ReplyDeleteGreat work, 2.0!
ReplyDeleteJayGT - re: 8:05 pm. Why limit your wish to just this season?
it is cold here. ice covering the water in the everglades as the sun comes up.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of conference calls, but never at 1:41 am.
ReplyDeleteNorm, I must admit that a 1AM conference call is impressive to me as well.
ReplyDeleteGood morning, Hotties! What a great heads up play by Dansby last evening!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure this has already been discussed, but did anyone read where Tubs said he loved recruiting? If so, what did you think about that?
I overnight feels like was 14 here... that is not why I live in FL.
ReplyDeleteI had a race yesterday, which means I spent the entire day outside and a couple hours getting wet and therefore freezing... not happiness.
Could someone post a link to the article in the AJC that you guys were talking about yesterday...
ReplyDeleteLuv ...Tubs, by his own admission, is a salesman. Whether true or not, he has to say that he likes it. He probably does like recruiting, just in the old school manner. Mark Richt and Tubs have recruited in the same style for years. Even though his old style will work well in west Texas, I'm betting that Tubs chsnges his style.
ReplyDeleteI responded to you question b/c I didn't want you to feel ignored, but he's totally gone now and I'm gonna try even harder to not discuss him.
mornin' den of all that is HOTTT.
ReplyDeletehave a good day.
Glad that Karlos made a great play, but really wanted Green Bay to win. Green Bay is one of my favorite teams if I really had one in the NFL. All the teams I wanted to win loss except for the Jets. I really wanted to see a Jets / Indy matchup this week in which the Jets would knock them off. That would be sweet irony for Indy throwing the perfect season and keeping the Jets alive. Of course, it could still happen, but the Chargers will be tough to beat this week for the Jets. Damn you Tom Brady for sucking.
ReplyDeleteWild game.
ReplyDeleteRodgers got mugged on that play.
i would love to see my boy Marcus McNeill & San Diego take on Dansby and the Cards in the Super Bowl. if Arizona doesn't get there then i hope it's Ratliff & the Cowboys.
ReplyDeleteI hate the Patriots and the Ravens, so I was glad one of them had to lose. Hopefully the other will lose this weekend as well as the Cowboys.
ReplyDeleteIf the Steelers or Titans can't win it, then the teams I hate shouldn't be able to either.
Hoopie, thanks for responding. I don't care to talk about anymore either, I just wondered what the Hotties thought about that since he didn't seem too interested in recruiting while he was at Auburn. OK. I'm done talking about him.
ReplyDeleteNew thread UPZ.
ReplyDeleteLuv,
ReplyDeleteI agree with Hoopie, Tubs openly admits to being a car salesman, so he's going to say whatever he needs to get what he wants.
I don't think Tubs hates recruiting, he just does it in a way that time might have passed by.
Also, I don't see why we can't discuss coaches past and present when the topic comes up. (Go ahead throw the penalty flag my way.)
