But that's not going to deter my attitude towards his constant pathetic attempt to hurt Auburn.

“Shane From Centerpoint” leaves us

L ast night, around 7:30pm, Shane Corn lost his battle with lung cancer.

Better known as “Shane from Centerpoint,” and a regular caller to the Paul Finebaum Show, Shane personified what so many Auburn fans hated about Alabama.

And he wouldn’t have had it any other way.

For years Shane was a daily caller to the show, one of the most successful in sports talkshow history. Paul Finebaum’s show is about the callers, and Shane was a cornerstone to the foundation that made Paul’s show so successful.

In a sense, Shane was a trailblazer, clearing the path for the nutjobs who would later call in and make a name for themselves. Names like:

• Phyllis from Mulga
• B.O.B.
• Jim from Tuscaloosa
• Charles from Reeltown
• I-man
• Tammy

…and the list goes on and on.

Not familiar with the show? Well think back to the glory days of 1980′s professional wrestling, when the Macho Man Randy Savage was facing off against Jake the Snake Roberts, following Andre the Giant’s match with Hacksaw Jim Duggan. The WWF didn’t produce characters as unique as the ones that appear on Paul Finebaum’s show.

And of that bunch, Shane from Centerpoint was Hulk Hogan.

Shane was a sports blogger before blogging existed. He was persistant in his passion for Crimson Tide football as well as his belief that anything orange was evil. So persistant was he that he proved his point last summer, when a rival Auburn caller made an ass of himself on the open airwaves, relishing in Shane’s recent grim diagnosis. The caller’s subsequent scorn, ridicule and eventual ban from the show could not have been a more perfect illustration of Shane’s point. And the caller in question is now a bigger joke than he ever painted Shane out to be.  :taunt:

Shane had a dream of being a sports journalist, and had several opportunities to write columns for various small market news outlets around the state. His “Shane Sez” article appeared on the Finebaum website for a time, then took its place in other periodicals.

Most notably, Shane’s articles once appeared on this site. He wouldn’t miss an opportunity to plug capstonereport.com while talking to Paul (with millions listening) on a given afternoon. Say what you may about the man, but his influence was so great that to this day, years after his last article appeared here, readers still associate this site with him, often mistaking my work for his.

Shane wasn’t afraid to take anybody on. When Paul opened the phone lines for callers to talk to his biggest guests, it was like dropping chum into shark infested waters. Eventually you knew Shane’s call was coming, and mercy wasn’t coming with him. I swear on the air he once made Tim Brando cry.

My only encounters with Shane came when we appeared on a live webcast with this site’s owner leading up to the 2009 BCS National Championship Game, and also at the 2010 SEC Media Days.

But when listening to Paul’s show, Shane’s calls led you give the volume a little boost. Whatever he had to say, it was going to be worth hearing.

As with any zealot, it was easy to be critical of Shane. I have to admit not agreeing with everything he said myself.

But either Shane bought in to what we all think he thought he was, or he really was what he thought he was. The guy didn’t care what you or I thought, but went about his business with a rare blend of sarcastic humility that somehow left him standing once the dust settled.

Ironically, at this moment he probably knows the truth about Cam Newton, and Chet Williams’ non-profit pay-for-play schemes, and Roy Kramer’s union with Phillip Fulmer to sink Alabama…and any of a number of other conspiracies Shane was so good at orating. And while I don’t believe this is spiritually possible, if there is a way, you can bet any info ascertained will find its way to the right destination for maximum impact. And you can also bank on any LSU lockeroom secrets on January 9th somehow finding their way into Alabama coach Nick Saban’s hands.  :taunt: :taunt: :taunt:

More probable, if you could see Shane today, you’d just find a guy in the midst of the peace he so needed after battling cancer. And even more than “the truth on Cam”, Shane now realizes what we will all realize one day: college football is just a game, a blip on the radar of eternity.

But in the here and now, he is gone. Our prayers are with his family, and our hearts are a little heavier today knowing that “Shane From Centerpoint” will never grace our airwaves again.
Damn, there was the last Danny Sheridan nugget of hope for Bammers.

Apparently Shane Corn from centerpoint was the only person on Earth, including the parties involved, that knew the "truth" about Cam. That secret died with him. What a shame. He was just about to blow the roof off on that whole thing...  :taunt: :taunt: :taunt:

You'd think in the waning moments of his life, he'd actually do what this article says and realize it's just a game. Make ammends. Admit his obsession with bringing Auburn down, and admit it was petty. Instead, he died an asshole.

I think the article was saying that now that he's dead, he has answers to all of life's questions.  Not that he knew them and took them to his grave.

I try not to judge others, but methinks Shane is dealing with more pressing problems right now.  I'll leave it at that.

Post by: Kaos on December 02, 2011, 10:39:04 AM
That article made me projectile vomit. 

Shane epitomized the very worst that the Alabama fanbase has to offer.  He was the sidewalk fan, the uneducated racist rabble, the unwashed mass of ignorance that is stereotypical of the entire populace of Alabama fandom. 

What's sad is that the author of that piece applauded those traits.  He celebrated the bottom of the barrel trash that Shane represented.

His ill-informed diatribes, his venomous rants, his outright lies in a continued effort to degrade Auburn, its players, its coaches and its fans helped poison the always frail relationship that exists between Tide and Tiger fans.

Is it truly something to celebrate that his braying jackassery paved the way for a stream of moronic, ill bred rabble rousers in the manner of Tammy, Legend, Darryl and Phyllis? 

Shane's contribution to this world was cloaked in jealousy and hate.  Are we really going to hail a pitiable excuse for a human being whose life served only to heighten the degradation of civility and amplify crudity?

That is his legacy. Shame, disgrace and the debasement of basic decorum. 

Shane was no journalist. He was an incompetent hack hoping and praying that the filth he perpetuated would somehow stain the institution he loathed out of nothing more than fear.

That people bothered to read his ham-handed attempts to express his vile thoughts in word and even more that some accepted those efforts as quasi-journalism is disgraceful evidence of just how far standards have fallen in this world. 

I would like to say I'm sorry Shane is dead, but the hard truth is that I don't give a shit either way.  I'm not celebrating his death, but I'm not mourning him either.   Dead or alive, I couldn't care less about Shane.

I'm not going to offer insincere platitudes or make phony promises to keep him or his family in my prayers.  I find that sort of behavior to be hypocritical.  I wouldn't have wasted my spit on Shane when he was alive.  I won't pretend that his death has any impact on me. 

Shane wasn't a great crusader fighting for some elusive truth.  In life, Shane was a shallow, bitter, frustrated, vile, hateful, frightened, little pissant of a man who exhibited a classic case of perpetual little brother jealousy.  In death he is silent.   


====================================
BTW, what I just wrote up there apparently makes me not a true Auburn fan.  Samplings from around the web:

Quote

Wow. You guys are placing your alledgiance to a team ahead of real life compassion. I couldn't stand hearing him, but to judge him and pay dis-respects is disturbing to me. Go ahead bash me, but if you have posted or have a notion to post something negative about a guy whose time has come; you need to take a second to check yourself! Did you learn spelling at the Shane School of Journalism?
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Updyke = Stupid
Paying Disrespect to the passed = ???...No words to describe!

I'm glad people that have the desire to post something like this makes up the minority of Auburn fans that I hope I never have to associate with. Good.

I'm so thankful that God didn't think like you! You and I, being a Gentile, would have no hope!

Seriously people, read this thread and tell me it doesn't make you sick! 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Guys,
He was a caller on a radio show. He wasn't evil, he wasn't even a "bad person".

He was a man with aspirations above his current lot in life and was trying to emulate someone he obviously admired very much.

Now, all his dreams and aspirations for life are for naught and his family had to pick up the pieces.

This is bigger than football. I will pray for his family and for my own: may God not rip my family apart at such a young age. Pffftttttt
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

this guy has family that is in agony this morning and all some can think to do is to post our own Hatred Eulogy on a message board for him. At the least, just refrain from commenting on him! This is the kind of stuff that makes the intense rivalry turn to hate. I may be a minority thinking this way, but if I am,..I'm truly disappointed. I don't know who you are and you have your "Freedom of Speech" and freedom to have your own opinion but come on.......I don't know why this is bothering me so much but do you honestly think that this defines a character of "class" for an Auburn fan?  You sow hate, you reap it. 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There were times when he was infuriating to listen to but you have to respect his passion and loyalty. When he didn't let his hatred for all things Auburn get the best of him, he made some good points. Yes during the Cam allegations he was especially unbearable; however, I noticed after Auburn won the NC, he finally seemed to accept it and move on. Since then, he seemed to have mellowed out and he's been a rather likable caller. Perhaps that coincided with his diagnosis, I don't know. Anyway, I for one am sad to hear of his passing and I will miss his "character" on the radio show. Respect passion and loyalty?  To what?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was not a big fan of Shane, but I will not celebrate the death of another human being. I will pray that his family and friends find peace.  Wonder if he celebrated the death of Bin Laden? Or Hitler?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Can't wait for Finebaum to read that on the air today. Or at least cherry pick to "prove" that Auburn fans are vile, despicable human beings.

I'm sure the asshole that wrote that has already visited to see where those hits are coming from.

Dickwad has made a point to quote random posts on message boards in his "articles" before.

Where were those from?

I can get on board with "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all," but that's as far as I'll go. And I guess I already violated that.

Will Harvey Updyke's family be in the thoughts and prayers of the Auburn Fambly when he becomes worm food?

Shane is/was the next notch below Updyke on the "human personification of everything there is to hate about bammers" rankings list. He reveled in it.

auburn.247  But there were others.  I just didn't bother to dig them out. 

I understand the "don't speak ill of the dead" thing, but I have a different take on it.  Why say something completely fake and phony when somebody's dead?  If you didn't like them in life, don't pretend some shit when they're gone. 

I had zero respect for Shane.  If there was a quantity less than zero, I had infinity of that.  I had no respect for his self-promoted ability as a "journalist."  I had no respect for his attitude.  I had no respect for his behavior.  He wasn't somebody I would have wasted one second talking to in real life unless he was taking my order.  Not going to pretend otherwise now.

You ought to know better to go over there K. BTW - I thought they banned you.

And for a rare time, you, I and Chizad agree on something here. I saw someone comment on the al.com article that "one day we's gonna lick that darn cancer". The guy brought it on himself in this case by smoking a case a day. Why should I feel sorrow for this guy? He was hateful. He was vile. His motives were full of malice. I fully believe as humans, what goes around comes around. I am like Kaos - indifferent. Not happy, not sad. The only thing that was sad was Shane himself as a living human.

Some excerpts and comments by me from that crapstain bullshit...

Quote
Better known as “Shane from Centerpoint,” and a regular caller to the Paul Finebaum Show, Shane personified what so many Auburn fans hated about Alabama.

And he wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Then he, and the people around him should be celebrating him getting exactly what he desired.

Quote
Shane had a dream of being a sports journalist, and had several opportunities to write columns for various small market news outlets around the state. His “Shane Sez” article appeared on the Finebaum website for a time, then took its place in other periodicals.

He started blogging on Paul's site, and Paul actually let him believe his crucifying the English language, and continuous attempt to sully anything Auburn were journalism.  Until one day with his new-found journalistic "credentials" he made a call to the NCAA trying to pass himself off as an employee of the Finebaum program trying to get "information" on Auburn, when really it was an attempt for him to make allegations against Auburn under the guise of asking questions about shit he's read on the internet, or simply heard rumored.  Paul had to give the appearance of disassociating him from the show.

Quote
Shane wasn’t afraid to take anybody on. When Paul opened the phone lines for callers to talk to his biggest guests, it was like dropping chum into shark infested waters. Eventually you knew Shane’s call was coming, and mercy wasn’t coming with him. I swear on the air he once made Tim Brando cry.

Yeah, big badass Shane.  On the phone!  Courage at it's finest.  Brando thought he was a fucking moron. 


Quote
Ironically, at this moment he probably knows the truth about Cam Newton, and Chet Williams’ non-profit pay-for-play schemes, and Roy Kramer’s union with Phillip Fulmer to sink Alabama…and any of a number of other conspiracies Shane was so good at orating. And while I don’t believe this is spiritually possible, if there is a way, you can bet any info ascertained will find its way to the right destination for maximum impact. And you can also bank on any LSU lockeroom secrets on January 9th somehow finding their way into Alabama coach Nick Saban’s hands.

Shane the only all knowing and all powerful from beyond this world able to set the "truth" free?  I can't, yeah I can, believe some bammer idiot wrote this.  Fuck sakes these morons never cease to amaze. 

The Finebaum show has created a cult, a small one, remember there's only really a handful of regular idiot callers, that honestly believe THEY are the reason for Paul's success, and Paul lets them believe it.  They're a cult that believes in the unchallenged, over the phone "verbal beatdown".  That believe they're worthy to call in and talk smack at professional in the business or worse talk about them and their families personally.

And those names listed, Phyllis, and BOB, Jim from Tuscaloosa, they came before Shane.  That was a time when the show was far less about just a constant stream of smack talk.  It had some entertainment value 20 years ago. Shane was the leader of the crowd that was brainwashed in to believing their calls were actually substantive, and had an impact on sports. 

Never knew the guy personally, only from his on air persona.  Like the writer said, he wanted to be hated.  Ok then.  I'm with K, indifferent to his passing.

I guess this is important to keep in perspective. Never met the guy. May have been a great dude. But I loath(ed) his shit sucking, soulless, lowest common denominator, inbred redneck fuckstick on air persona.

I couldn't make this up, but they are playing a montage of lowlights of him fighting with distinguished guests and getting completely PWNed, calling Auburn fans homosexuals, telling assorted people he's going to put a boot in their asses, etc. with "Time of Your Life" by Green Day playing in the background.

Yep.  Chris Vernon says "He was a nice guy, to my face, but then a couple of hours later my phone blows up with text about how the guy was ripping me during his call." 

That's exactly what we should all aspire to have people say about us after we're gone.

If the montage of my life is a collection of clips where I bray like a retarded jackass, make an absolute fool of myself, exhibit a complete and utter lack of class and dignity, and put a mass of sheer ignorance on display? 

I'd have to say my life was an utter waste.  That's all that pitiable clown had. 

For the record, there were 55 obituaries listed on the Birmingham News site today.  That's 55 people who contributed more to society than some gasbag radio show caller.

I doubt they have televisions in hell. Shane, bear, and PCbama are most likely stitched together, ass to mouth - human centipede style, with the head segment (bear) being force fed rancid tuna salad.

Fuck Shane Corn. The world is a little better off today.

Some fucking moron called in to ask if Shane had any military experience.  He wanted to arrange a 21 gun salute at his funeral.  Paul told him no military background.  The fucking moron said he'd do it anyway, Shane had earned it.  Tha fuck?  Braying like an ass at people over the phone, resorting to calling anybody that will stand up to you "gay", and questioning their manhood....that earned a 21 gun salute?

I'm going to break one of my long standing affirmations tomorrow. For a little over 3 years now, I have not bought a copy of the Birmingham News. This streak ends and, for 1 day, these hack bastards will get $.75 of my money so I can peruse the obituaries and find out where they're dumping this lowlife piece of shit's rotting carcass.

Once Monday & Tuesday's rain settles the dirt they throw over him, I am fulfilling my vow to lay a pile of shit on his grave. It won't be my own - he's not worth it - but I am intentionally overfeeding my dog and will scoop his leavings into a gallon sized ziploc freezer bag. This shovel full of shit will be my token of remembrance to one of the most worthless fucksticks ever to walk the earth.

Fuck these assholes. Every last one of them. This makes me want to go rent a backhoe and dig his sorry ass up, use the scoop to bust his coffin open, and leave his worthless hull laying on the ground for the stray dogs to eat. All this would accomplish would be getting the ASPCA on my ass for trying to give stray dogs cancer, and I don't have the time to deal with them right now.

Bob Barker acts all high and mighty by demanding we get our animals spayed or neutered to control the stray population, but he gets pissy when a guy thinks outside the box and try's to thin them out with rapidly spreading cancer.

Mark my words; it's just a matter of time before one of these retards does some shitty drawing depicting the dead drunk and the poster child for USA Ultra Lights holding hands (or some other cheesy pose) and starts spreading it around on Facebook. I swear upon all I hold holy that the first person on my friends list that posts it will get a bag of Catfish's finest dropped at their front door.
