You aren't man enough...

Flippy Floppy Tubs, Lola Bowl & the BCS

Make up your damn mind, Tubs. Get back on the recruiting trail and off the banquet circuit. Get back to your job!!! Ok, ladies, Tubs has finally pushed me tht edge. He needs to either swim or cut bait and get another job. Just because Bama was desperate enough to give Lil' Nicky no buyout, doesn't mean Auburn has to. Just because Bama was deperate enough to pay Lil' Nicky $4 mil, doesn't mean Auburn has to. I find it so outrageous that Tubs is trying to negotiate after a 4 loss season where his offensce was in the botton fourth of D1 schools.

If Tubs leaves, then Auburn should take the buyout and go buyout someone good. Tubs is dragging down the program and recruiting right now by dragging his feet. Win the games you are suppose to (ie: South Florida & Miss. State) and we would gladly hand you the keys to the bank.....til then.....you are still an underachiever.....coaches who make over $3 mil should have their teams playing in January no matter how much reloading or how many young guys you play.

Peach Bowl--------the Lola Bowl.........ahhh, we now have the matchup for the ages. Auburn vs. Clemson in the Peach Bowl. Two gorgeous campus', two gorgeous female student bodies, Lake Hartwell vs. Lake Martin, the best uniforms in college sports vs. potentially all purple, Tommy vs. Tommy, ahhh the Bowdens still hate Auburn.

BCS=BS..............perfect scenario to necessiate a 4 team playoff after the season. Now is time to expand the BCS to 4 teams and not just two.

Better yet, after this season of ratings for Notre Dame, they will not command the same TV contract as they used to. Hopefully this brings ND into the Big 10/11 and thus another conference game. Same with the Big East and Pac 10.

Q

SIX

Auburn vs Bama 2007

Tuscaloosa Police reported that an individual attempted to "egg" Coach Nick Saban's home last night.

The report stated:

An empty egg carton was recovered at the scene. Two eggs hit Coach Saban's house, 3 eggs went over his house and hit his neighbor's back door, 2 eggs hit the houses of each of his next door neighbors, and the remaining 3 eggs were found broken on the ground near the carton from where the individual threw them. Looking at what was hit, police officials say they are considering John Parker Wilson as the primary suspect.

CAN'T SUGARCOAT SIX

First off, thank you to the Auburn crew of TigerNation, the $hakes Family and the Daddy Family. You and your wives were amazing this weekend. Thank you for putting together such tremendous tailgate and spread. There was no equal on campus. I truly appreciate the hospitality and it made this Thanksgiving weekend one of the best ever. Thank you.

I have a holiday hangover right now.

Second, $400,000 a point is what Alabama paid for Saturday night's debacle. It should have been 35 zero, at least. If Brandon Cox was half a quarterback it would have been very, very, very ugly for Alabama. 12 underthrew 3 touchdowns(at least 35 yard gains if you want to argue). Brandon Cox is the winningest active quarterback in the SEC. John Parker Wilson has a losing record as a starter at 12-13.

Even at his worst, 12 is better than anything Alabama can put on the field. Auburn had better players at every position, bar none. And that should be the case for at least two more seasons.

I would also like to take this time to thank all the Wilbur Churchill fans in section 107 that cheered for my press conference reenactment during halftime. Aight!!!!!!

The last time Alabama beat Auburn, Enron was a good investment!

Six feels very, very good. And it will for another 364 days.

Victoriously yours,

Wilbur Churchill

Jerraud Powers is tasty!

Auburn beats Alabama 17-10 in the 2007 Iron Bowl

From St. Nick to Little Nicky and Pearl Harbor to Tuscaloosa

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- Alabama's latest loss has coach Nick Saban searching for ways to motivate his team.

Citing the 9-11 terrorist attacks and Pearl Harbor, Alabama coach Nick Saban said Monday his team must rebound like America did from a "catastrophic event."







In this case, that would be an embarrassing 21-14 loss Saturday to Louisiana-Monroe.

"Changes in history usually occur after some kind of catastrophic event," Saban said during the opening remarks of his weekly news conference. "It may be 9-11, which sort of changed the spirit of America relative to catastrophic events. Pearl Harbor kind of got us ready for World War II, or whatever, and that was a catastrophic event."

Alabama's just getting ready to face No. 25 Auburn, its biggest rival, on Saturday.

A Saban spokesman said the coach chose the 9-11 and Pearl Harbor references to illustrate the challenges facing his team.

"What Coach Saban said did not correlate losing a football game with tragedy; everyone needs to understand that. He was not equating losing football games to those catastrophic events," football spokesman Jeff Purington said in a statement to The Associated Press. "The message was that true spirit and unity become evident in the most difficult of times. Those were two tremendous examples that everyone can identify with."

How to close - Classic

ROLL TIDE ROLL

No Alabama senior the last six (6) years has left Tuberville-Denny Stadium a winner on Senior Day.

The Alabama nation has paid $4 million to watch Saban turn into Shula. Shula would have never lost to Louisianna Directional. Saban never had a 3 game losing streak at LSU and he has better talent at Bama starting off than in Baton Rouge. Scarbinksy, in Birmingham(the nation's 6th most dangerous city) is already questioning whether he has lost his program? Valid question considering the mystique is gone. Long gone. Actually, it was never there for me in the first place.

What better way to start off Thanksgiving week???

I HATE BAMA WEEK STARTS NOW

In honor of TigerNation, the source for most of my amusing pictures, I salute you.

UNTITLED

I don't even know how to start this after the shallacking Auburn took in Athens so we shall leave it untitled. All aspects of the team went haywire, and we should have seen the dysfunction earlier.

Q: How does Auburn rid themselves of their offensive woes?

A: Graduate Brandon Cox.

It starts with 12 however is not limited to him. Al Borges' playcalling is my next target. How has the offensive mindset and playcalling become less and less aggressive every year? There has been a clear pattern of regression. Enough of the playing conservative bullsh@t. Nobody can afford to play not to lose in the SEC and it finally bit Tubs in the ass, again. And something tells me it won't be the last.

Whatever, I still fn love them. And it kills me inside sometimes. War Fn Eagle.

Auburn Def. Coach Will Muschamp calls Ark. Motherf*ckers

Again...because the Champ said so.

Will Muschamp is a God

Again, yes, he is a god. A man-god who mearly walks among mortals cussing and and staring with the intensity of a mad man. His defense is amazing. What if Auburn had an offense who could get a second half first down? What if Auburn had a head coach with the balls to kick it deep and trust your amazing athletes (ie:Muschamp's players) on kick coverage? Yes, Will Muschamp is a God. And the Bulldogs want him back.............

JUST HOW BAD IS WILL MUSCHAMP?

When Muschamp takes a swim, he doesn't get wet, the water gets Muschamped.

Will Muschamp doesn't read offenses. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants.

Muschamp makes chuck norris sit down to pee.

Before Chuck Norris goes to sleep at night, he checks his closet for Will Muschamp.

Will Muschamp once played 18 holes of golf using a 12 inch strip of rebarand a sun dried tomato. He shot a 54.

Will Muschamp could kill Chuck Norris nine different ways with his head set and four different ways with his play chart.

Will Muschamp sleeps with a night light. Not because he is afraid of the dark but because the dark is afraid of Will.

Will Muschamp doesn't fart, he detonates

Superman wears Will Muschamp pajamas to bed.

Will Muschamp does not teabag the ladies. He potato-sacks them.

Will Muschamp didn't hang the moon. He stared down an asteroid and it stopped in it's tracks.

Will Muschamp's calendar goes straight from March 31st to April 2nd; no onefools Will Muschamp.

Will Muschamp was originally cast as the main character in 24, but wasreplaced by the producers when he managed to kill every terrorist and savethe day in 12 minutes and 37 seconds.

Will Muschamp doesn't cut his grass, he dares it to grow.

Will Muschamp used to beat the sh*t out of his shadow because it wasfollowing to close. It now stands a safe 30 feet behind him.

They say that Superman's only weakness is kryptonite.

Will Muschamp laughs at Superman for having a weakness.

Will Muschamp's dog is trained to pick up his own poop because Will Muschamp will not take sh*t from anyone.

Will Muschamp once partook in a pissing contest outside of a bar. His opponent drowned.

Will Muschamp can build a snowman out of rain.

Will Muschamp's wristwatch has no numbers on it. It just says, "Time to kick ass."

The Daily Football Fix will forever be known as the Daily Champ per Will Muschamp.

Thank you, Mooga, much appreciated to whomever came up with this.

Slobberknocker

Oh, what a slobberknocker it is gonna be!

LSU/Auburn...the winner will probably represent the Western Division in Atlanta, which is the way it has been for a long time. The two defenses in the conference. Two inconsistent offenses. What a war this will be.

Daily Football Fix Dead on Pick..........Auburn +11........bet the house. If we are lucky, there will be 11 points total.

I can't wait to hear the stories from Tommy & Eddie in Baton Rouge.

On the way back from Birmingham Wednesday, Wilbur met Carl & Odell at the Peerless for a Coors. Interesting place, the oldest questionable establishment in Alabama. Circa 1899. Gotta love a bartender who looks like a mechanic.

As we sat at the bar watching Carl be a vidieot on the video game machine, he made a statement that rang true to me.

"I still act like I did in college." - Carl Montgomery

You know what, I do to. So does Nation, $hakes and Gayddy. Why? I am still the same person, I have matured, however I am still the same person. And you know what? I am probably gonna act like that for a while. I am having to much fun. Hanging out in questionable establishments, chasing crazy women and enjoying all that the big city has to offer a twenty something who spends his days in a steel and glass office tower. At night, I wanna cut loose a bit.....drink here, a smoke there, here a drink, there a smoke, everywhere a drink, drink.

Regardless, point being..........we are still the same people we were in college and always will be.........proof? Eddie and Tommy in Baton Rouge this weekend! War Damn Eagle!!!

Kim K takes the Vols. Another Paris Hilton wannabe who only real talent is sex.

Tennessee wins outright. Last time the 3rd October in Saturday was in Tuscaloosa the Bamers made a painting of pathetic 3 field goal, aren't we lucky he fumbled game. Not this year. Vols hang 30 on the Tide and roll, 31-21.

Florida gets it together and blows UK out of the water, 42-24.

Wilbur, out!

LSU karate chop

Back to the Ham

Life has been crazy lately. Can't explain, don't really want to try. Ol' Chuchill is about to leave the office to head back to Birmingham for a client tour in the morning. First though, he has to call AAA to get his truck started. Yeah, seriously, before I go anywhere, I call AAA. Hey guys, can you give me a jump?? Thank heavens we are dropping it tonight and rocking a sweet full size rental tomorrow.

A few observations from the weekend to give you something to think about til my return on Friday.

-Applewhite and Saban are not on the same page, regardless of how well the offense performs. Does anyone else get the impression that Major is thinking like Roy Upchurch, F*** Saban??

-Mark Richt is a good man. Damn near, knocked out his own thugs when they were jumping on Vandy's star.

-Tubs has bit of confidence in his defense. Yeah, seriously, how obnoxiously cocky do you have to be to sit on a 3 point lead?

-Brandon Coutu has the funkiest eyebrows in the SEC. He looks evil.

-Tony Barnhart picked AU over LSU..............ah oh.

Out, King

Auburn vs Florida 2007

Will Muschamp is my favorite defensive coach ever.

Auburn Def. Coach Will Muschamp calls Ark. Motherf*ckers

Called Out...State of Alabama Midseason Update

The King of Tigerland has been called out for lack of activity on the blog recently. Well, yeah, given the fact that he is working two jobs, developing and closing business and travelling back and forth from Birmingham to Atlanta among other things....yeah, it has slipped. Not anymore, the fire has been lit and the vengeance shall return.

On top of that, called out by a punk who hides behind a friends screename. P*&$y. Yeah, go ahead and call someone's grandmother to sell her retirement services that are mearly junk bond, bullsh@t securities. Again, p@#&y.

Not anymore, the following post will be a scathing return to the good old days where all Carl Montgomery could say was, F@#k you! Hopefully this next post will elicit that response.

THE CREAM HAS RISEN TO THE TOP LATELY

With identical records, Alabama and Auburn could not be further apart in regards to the state of the football programs. Auburn has found an identity while Alabama has regressed.

First, Alabama is in trouble. The redshirt freshmen running back who the Bama fans (including Carl Montgomery) crowed about as the SEC's leading rusher is not even the starter anymore. Bama prefers to run the ball with Glen Coffee, who reminds me of Tarrant Lynch, and Roy "F Saban" Upchurch. The Mississippi Midget, Terry Grant, is no longer the Tide's first choice.

The offensive line still sucks. #71 can't play all 5 positions and Andre Caldwell is the most overrated linemen in the SEC. Right after King Dunlop but we will get to that in a few.

Coaching...not pretty. The most telling sign that Alabama is poorly coached. At the end of a game in a hail mary situation, DB's are taught to knock the ball down, not intercept it. Well, the team player that is Simeon "I'm a crying b$tch" Castille intercepted the Houston football to end the game while LSU knocks down Tebow's last prayer in Baton Rouge. And Saban coaches the DB's, don't tell me he is not telling those guys to knock it down. They just don't listen or care (ex. Roy "F Saban" Upchurch).........also, when the head coach calls out the playcalling in the papers it is not good......the tide is unravelling, fast.

Johnny Parker Walker Crimson, well that is another story. He will not be an elite QB ever at Alabama, he doesn't have the footwork or balls it takes to win in the SEC.

Defense, huh, what defense? That is a joke on the Capstone.

To be blunt, Alabama does not know how to close the door on an opponent, a trademark of a Nick Saban team. This isn't Saban's team. Nor will he stay around long enough to make it his.

Bama is favored by 6 in Oxford this weekend, ha, Ole Miss covers like a champ and might win!

Do you really think he will be there for his first recruit's senior season?

Now back to the eastern plains of Alabama for the Auburn report. Not much to write about other than the Tigers look to be the class of Alabama football again. Their offense has regained its footing and looks to be as explosive as 2005. Tubs says he will be back (we shall see) next year.

The defense is #2 in the league and missing 4 starters. Seriously?!?! How is Will Muschamp not the best DC in the league? I say better than Bo Pelini. Who wants to argue??

In closing, Auburn looks to be the dominant team in Alabama again.

WILBUR PICKS

Ole Miss +6

LSU -9

Georgia -7

Auburn +3

Honesty is the Best Policy

Alabama coach Nick Saban fired a shot at South Florida's admissions policy. "There are a significant amount of players who don't qualify and they end up being pretty good players at some other schools," Saban said in an interview with the Birmingham News. "I think there are six guys starting on the South Florida defense who probably would have gone to Florida or Florida State, but Florida and FSU couldn't take them." Cheap shot? It certainly came off that way to USF coach Jim Leavitt, a rising star who did not care for someone dumping mud on his team's historic accomplishment.

-New York Daily News

Well, Coach Hair Plug is right and only being honest . South Florida's team is made of SEC rejects.

World Largest Swimsuit Shoot in Australia presents the Daily Football Fix with our Award of Excellence from our Australian readership. Thank you and throw another shrimp on the barbie!!

Texas A&M officials have examined Dennis Franchione's contract to determine if he violated the terms of his deal, CBSSports.com has learned. Franchione is under fire after the Friday revelation that he operated a secret website for three years. A certain segment of powerful Texas A&M officials "want him out" according to a source but there is no immediate move to fire the coach. The examination of the contract seems to be an indication of Franchione's deteriorating relationship with his superiors. The website scandal combined with a blowout loss to Miami this season, a 29-24 record in 4 1/2 seasons and a $2 million salary, has led to the dissatisfaction. The contract runs through 2013.

STILL THE KING

And still, heavyweight champion of the state of Alabama........the Auburn Tigers.

As an Auburn alumni and a life long Seminole fan I took extra special pleasure in Saturday evenings festivities. September 29, 2007...the night Scarbinksky and Finebaum's mouths were closed.

Oh, my, how the Tide has changed. FSU defense physically pummels Alabama's offense as Auburn defense and offensive line physically abuse the Florida lines. Bama will have to figure out how to play outside of the two minute mark.

Florida State's suffocating defense gave the balding, hair plugged Sabior fits and his young tandem of OC Major Applewhite and John Parker Wilson shut down. JPW is a good athlete, however a system quarter back with horrendous footwork at best. The score was closer than the game.

Auburn starts 3 true freshmen and they abuse the Florida defensive line. Auburn's defense was incredible as usual. The true key...Stickman Brandon Cox did not turn the ball over. Recievers caught balls, running backs made plays and the defense was amazing. Terrific play calling and gameplanning by both Borges and Muschamp.

The Tigers are alive. They might just have a chance against Tennessee Tech now.

AUBURN FOOTBALL: CRACKIN SEC HEADS

Only reason this video is getting posted is bc of the gansta ass song!!

Under Armour should come to me about protecting houses.....seriously

For starters I just want to say, in the immortal words of Frank Ricard of Old School....."I had an AWESOME time".....this weekend. Auburn wins, bammer loses...........and I knocked somebody the hell out.

Yes.....since most of the 5 people who read this blog were around on Saturday after the altercation I will refrain from going into detail on the world wide web.....but lets just say that its not nice to enter someones home at 1am in a drunken-drugged rage and attack said homemaker....you get your face broken.

I will tell the story for free to anyone who feels like calling or emailing......

daddy, shakes, i just can't stop thinking about how crazy that was. I want to stop talking about it but its just like a freaking movie that keeps playing in my head.......

Leave Coach Fran Alone

Thank you, Nation.

Turn Me Over

Please turn me over. That is exactly what Shug Jordan is saying in his grave after watching Auburn give the ball away another 5 times this weekend. I cannot even verbalize my disgust for Al Borges, Brandon Cox and the rest of the Auburn offense right now. Bobby Dunn seems like the only player who gives a damn. Just go ahead and turn me over.




LSU & Florida...will this be the SECCG as well? Maybe as LSU and Florida look like the class of the SEC this year.

As much as I hate to say it, WE, are the Georgia Bulldogs this week. A Georgia W in Tuscaloosa under the lights would be the greatest birthday present ever!! We need a real win, just like Jessica!





Deep in depression,





Wilbur

Q for QB

Please register this as my formal request to insert Quentin Groves as Auburn's quarterback as soon as possible.

Brandon Cox can go....actually....I really don't give a damn where Brandon Cox goes. He won't make it out of Baton Rouge alive so Tubs better get the pups ready to play.

A somewhat sensible post

Tired of this nonsense going on................

Carl's Pick'em

LSU, and fairly big

Barners, will cover THIS week

Alabama, I wished I could bet on my old school, b/c this is a lock @ -3.5

Headed down to the Barn in about 20 min. Ready to tie one on with the rivals. Looking forward to a weekend of gluttony, binge drinking, rehashing stories that still make me laugh EVERY time I hear them, total debauchery, half naked college co-eds, and, oh yeah, a little college football in the process

Auburn vs. Kansas State Highlights

So Pirated,

Alabama Cruises to an Easy Victory over Western Carolina

Did this weekend really happen?

Did this weekend really happen? Did Wilbur really start off picks with a 3 game streak and then crash and burn with 3 losses? Did Auburn's offensive line really look that bad? Did that girl do the Phi Mu rush song at 5 am and make me laugh so hard I could cry?

Apparently the answer is yes. It was a terrific weekend with the exception of what was televised Saturday.

Glass Half Empty

"A W is a W" or "At least we won" will not appease me. The offensive line was so bad that Hugh Nall's grades were published in the newspaper. The returning starter is the worse?

Zone middle is not our only running play and when there is penetration, why don't you trap? Where was Mario Fannin? Tubs runs his mouth for weeks then the guy barely sniffs the field.

Robert Dunn and Ben Tate (who played a great game) need to learn to set up blocks. Both had long returns/runs that could have gone the distance if they were patient and did a better job of using the blockers in front.

Al Borges may have lost his touch calling plays.

Glass Half Full

Quentin Groves is the best defensive player in the SEC, no arguement.

The defense bent but never broke, the only touchdown was on a trick play, however they had tried to run about 3 times by the time it got in.

Last 6 minutes.........yeah, the Alabama excuse, I know.........Auburn looked unbeatable for the last 6 minutes. Can they play like that for 60 minutes? Can Auburn put together 3-5 step drop passes and a few play action 7 step deep posts? Can they loosen up the line so that a back can find daylight? Can the defense play with fire late into the game and not only when it is needed?

Nation, $ & Daddy, I appreciate the hospitality. Carl, there is a challenge from the Margarits Boys that the Martini Boys might need to handle this weekend so get ready.

Southern Dozen

8. Louisville

10. Florida State

11. TCU

12. Georgia Tech

It's that time of year again.....Wilbur Picks

RV's are already on campus. That aroma of football mixed with grilled meats and beer permeates the air. College campus' around the country are brimming with excitement. To inagurate our 4th season on the web, Wilbur Picks and the Southern Dozen, a list of the 12 best teams in the South will arrive tomorrow.

First round of Wilbur Picks, and yes we aim to best last year's atrocious mark thanks to Jessica's return to the DFF.

Thursday

LSU @ Mississippi State...LSU 35-13....Bengal Tigers roll over Sly Croom & Co. The speed and power of the defense prove to be to much for the Bulldogs as they hold yet another foe to under 100 yards rushing. Matt Flynn & the offense race to an early two touchdown lead and don't look back. Early Doucet scores two touchdowns. LSU covers 18 like a champ 45-12.

Friday

Washington @ Syracuse...Washington is in their pivotal rebuilding year under Ty Willingham. Syracuse is still at the botton of the Big East barrell. The Carrier Dome will not be a fun place to be Friday night as Washington walks out with a W. Huskies 23 Orangemen 13....UDub covers 3 with relative ease.

Saturday

Georgia Tech @ Notre Dame...who is gonna play QB for the Irish?? We won't know til game time however it won't matter to much with a stingy Jacket D that will swarm any Irish attempt. The Tech offense should be much improved as well and Tashard Choice will run all over a slow Domer D. I will take the Yella Stingers all day at plus 2....Tech 27 Domers 17

Oklahoma State @ Georgia...can the Bulldog D stop the potent Cowboy O? That is the question as Fat Matt Stafford & Co. should hang at least 4 TD's on a defense that ranked low yardage allowed but ranked high on big game changing plays. If the UGA runners can get past the line of scrimmage they may run all day long. Okie in the upset covering backdoor 6.5....OSU 30 UGA 28

Kansas State @ Auburn...which Auburn Tiger team is gonna show up? Can Lee Ziemba contain the All Big 12 selection across his face at D-end? Brandon Cox throws for 200 yards and a pair of touches to his new recievers and the Auburn D shuts down K-State's QB (who did not pass his physical until well into August). Groves has two sacks and Blackmon takes one head for his keeping. Tigers roll and cover 14 with ease. Auburn 38 Kansas State 9

Monday

The annual ACC Labor Day Classic of Miami-FSU has evolved into the Bowden Bowl. Can Tommy stay off the hot seat? Not without winning an ACC crown. Can FSU's D hold Spiller/James, the best RB duo in the country outside of Arkansas? Will the Seminole offense explode for points as promised? A great matchup to wind up a great weekend. FSU covers 3.5...barely.....Noles 24 Tigers 20.

Ladies & gentlemen, welcome to another season of college football on the Daily Football Fix. It should be a season to remember.

All the Best and War Damn Eagle,

Wilbur Patton Churchill

Wednesday FYI

-Bad news for two Iron Bowl QB's, Brodie "Stickman" Croyle has lost the starting job in Kansas City and Jason Campbell will miss the season due to a torn ACL.

-Saban suspends DJ Hall & Prince Hall for the season opener. I am interested to see how Rolando McClain fills the void in the middle of Bama's D.

-Auburn depth charts out....Two freshmen will start on the right side of the line.

Tuscaloosa OKs bar closing time of 3 a.m. Friday, Saturday
8/29/2007, 11:38 a.m. CDT
The Associated Press

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — The Tuscaloosa City Council voted 4-3 to impose a 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday closing time for businesses that serve alcohol, a move aimed largely at providing a safer environment on The Strip.

On Thursday night, bars now close at 2 a.m. Friday, and they aren't required to close at all on Friday night/Saturday morning. Councilman Lee Garrison urged the council Tuesday night to support the University Strip Area Advisory Committee's recommendation to close at 3 a.m. Friday and Saturday.

"I think we ought to give the committee's recommendation a chance," Garrison said. "If it doesn't work out, we can come back and look at it later."

Mayor Walt Maddox, who opposed extending the Thursday night closing time by an hour, said he is considering vetoing the council's action. It would take five council members to overturn a veto.

Police and university officials say the lack of a closing time on Saturday morning has created a crime problem. But neighborhood residents and some city officials were concerned that closing the bars too early would move late-night partying into residential areas.

Just like Atlanta's bar hours....no wonder this college town has a coke problem.

Booster?

Ok, so this Borie lady is a teacher at Hoover High....and an ex-Bama cheerleader. Well she was told by coach Rush Probst to take a "special interest" in Kerry Murphy, bama signee, when he was a freshman. Well that doesn't seem like that big of a deal...except, she is accused of pressuring a fellow teacher earlier this year to change his grades to make him eligible to play in college. Well, with her being an ex-cheerleader she is known to the NCAA as a "booster" of the program. Since Murphy was a bama signee, and her a booster, then would it seem that she would be aiding in the illegal admission of a player to the program? I don't know, but i would be interested in what the NCAA has to say.

Not to mention the request made by bama for Hoover to send a "better transcript" for signee Josh Chapman, to make him eligible to play at the Crapstain.

Just a little pot-stirring for the last friday before football season.......

Alabama Police Blotter...NOT GUILTY, sure!!

Bama's football team cannot keep themselves out of trouble right now.

2 Bama players enter not guilty pleas
Posted by Gentry Estes, Sports Reporter August 22, 2007 10:25 AM
Categories: Sports, breaking news

TUSCALOOSA - Not guilty pleas were entered on behalf of Alabama football players Brandon Fanney and Roy Upchurch this morning in Tuscaloosa District Court.
Fanney, a sophomore linebacker, and Upchurch, a sophomore running back, did not attend the hearing and were represented by attorney Jason Neff. Each player faces charges of disorderly conduct due to a July 14 disturbance outside a bar on the area of University Boulevard known as "The Strip."

Sophomore defensive end Brandon Deaderick, who was also arrested as a result of the incident, has applied for youthful offender status. Deaderick was charged with criminal mischief, resisting arrest and providing a false name.

SHULA STILL COACHES AT ALABAMA

What a punk!!! The Sabior is a joke. Handled internally?!?!?! Because it is your best defensive player and someone you personally coach?!?!?!?! What a joke!!!!!!

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- Alabama star cornerback Simeon Castille was arrested early Sunday on a disorderly conduct charge.
Castille was one of the top defensive backs in the Southeastern Conference last season. He led Alabama with five interceptions and three recovered fumbles.
Tuscaloosa police spokesman Capt. Greg Kosloff said Castille was arrested in an entertainment district near campus. He was taken to the Tuscaloosa County Jail and released after posting bond. Police declined to release details of the incident.
Through team spokesman Jeff Purinton, coach Nick Saban said he didn't have all the facts of the case on Sunday and would deal with the situation "internally."
Saban led his team through scrimmages Friday and Saturday before giving the team a day off Sunday. Alabama starts the season against Western Carolina on Sept. 1.
Castille is the fifth high-profile Crimson Tide athlete -- the fourth football player -- known to have been arrested in the past two months.
Brandon Deaderick, Brandon Fanney and Roy Upchurch were arrested for their role in a disturbance near campus on July 14. Fanney and Upchurch were charged with disorderly conduct and Deaderick was charged with criminal mischief, resisting arrest, and giving police a fake name.
Basketball player Yamene Coleman was arrested and charged with credit card fraud last month.

Ray and Andy....I am speechless

Leave it to my friends to make it on the TV at the Braves game. First Nation, Rob (wearing a giveaway Franceour t shirt that is several sizes to small with collar popped from the inside may I add) & Jacob wrestle for a bat after Jacob points out to the world where the bat hit him. Then, last night, Ray and Andy go the Braves game with blowup syringes and heckle the world from behind the dugout. Who would have thought that they would have made it on Yahoo Sports? Where in the world do you even get something like that????

Erin is so proud.

Do I really want to be in wilderness of North Carolina with these guys this weekend?????????

15 days......

Coach Mo

My offensive line coach from Bob Jones, Coach Mo Thigpen passed away from a heart attack at 42. I have never, ever, ever, ever, ever been screamed at like he used to scream at me. In demonstration, this 6'3'' 300 lb. man would knock me into briar patches by our practice field to simply prove a point to the rest of the line. My chemistry teacher, Mrs. Sullivan said to me one Monday after attending the game on Friday night, "I am friends with your mama but if you ever get in trouble I am going to Coach Mo and not her."

He was someone who knew exactly what we were doing on the weekends and even had beers with after we were out of school. For what it is worth, he did a great deal for me in a time where my parents marriage was in shambles, my father was non existent in my life and I could have very easily gotten myself into trouble. I was the smallest starter on the line at 193 pounds, he gave me a chance to prove myself and I appreciate that. May he rest in peace.

Not Much Longer

Well, it looks like we are just under three weeks away from the start of college football once again. The blog is pretty slow these days and I really don't have anything good to say, but Kingdom asked me to put up a new post so here it is.

I figured I would just put up some of my pictures that I've saved on the computer over the last couple of years, rather than post some stupid preseason All-SEC team or a top 25. I'm one of those who sees those lists for what they are...nothing but hype to get us over the hump until kick off. So I'll let somebody else post their opinions. Ok here are some of my favorite old and new pics from across the world wide web..............
