We seem to do better when we are counted out, so as far as I am concerned, all the experts can predict we will lose every game. I just wish once we would take advantage of a pre-season high ranking and meet the expectations for that season. Maybe CGC can eventually do something about that.
This kind of thinking makes me physically ill. And no, Ranger, it's not directed solely at you. Others share this same sentiment.
Fuck being the underdog and the come-from-behind kid. I'd rather be the bully on the block who kicks ass and takes names. I'd rather be expected to win everything every year because you start out higher at the beginning and don't fall as far when you lose a couple (USC, Florida, Texas, etc.)
How'd being the underdog work out in 2004? Yeah we won some games, but we were so far down the list to start that nothing we could do would get us over the hump.
"I like being the underdog, I like being counted out, I like flying under the radar" Every bit of it is LOSER talk. And I hate it.
Just to stir up discussion, suppose we went 3-9 what would your reaction be? and would you want Chizik gone?
I think we all know your response, lets let the other kids participate mmkay.
Oooooh... ooooooohhhh.. Mr. KOTT-AIR!!! My hand is raised! Can I answer?
Just to stir up discussion, suppose we went 3-9 what would your reaction be? and would you want Chizik gone?
I would be surprised and disappointed. I would not be in favor of firing a corch one year into the job...especially when said corch was behind the eight ball with only 75 scholarship players.Would there be any amount of losses that would justify to you, firing a coach after one year?
Would there be any amount of losses that would justify to you, firing a coach after one year?If we went 3 - 9, there would be significant doubt in everyone. I would give him one more year, and if we did not win at least 8 -9 games in 2010 he should be fired.

Just saw the repeat of College Football Live on ESPN.This makes me want to kill someone.
We're the pick for week one upset.
:suicide:
3-9 would leave the distinct taste of ass in my mouth (For the first time). I would want Chizik and staff gone, quickly. I guess I'm in a different camp when it comes to the talent level on this team. While I agree that our depth is very suspect at a couple of positions, I truly believe that our front line guys are big time players. I still hold that QB play and injuries are the whole key.
At the end of last year, my biggest beef was that there were no playmakers with the exception of maybe Mario Fannin. I don't think that's the case anymore with the addition of guys like McCalebb and Blake and Benton etc. I've also argued several times that a huge number of guys on this team are the same ones that 2 years ago, went to the Swamp and kicked ass, lost on a last second pass at LSU and beat Bama and Clemson to close the season. The same group picked to win the SEC last year. Last year was cluster fuck of epic proportions but the front line talent is here. 3-9 would be totally and completely unacceptable.

The chizik clown posse is expecting to lose this year and expecting it to be a regular thing. That is why they have constantly harped that they have talented players and that there is no depth due to the fact that they have not got enough scholly players.The first sentence makes absolutely no sense. The second sentence is absolutely unfounded. How is he smoke and mirrors? I guess because you have an unbridled hatred for Chizik, Malzahn must also suck by proxy... Super genius.
Fuck them and their self serving lying asses. If the previous administration didn't recruuit and leave them any talent why pray tell do they wish they had left them any more untalented players?
MalZ is smoke and mirrors as an OC. We all know the history of our DC and the world beating establishments he has ran.
3-9 would be no better nor worse than chizik's best season ever.
I say fire him at the first opportunity.

If he only wins 3, or Zero, I'll drive the black hummer limo to Auburn, pick him up to take him on a Tiger Prowl visit at a new HS...located inside the Airport. Maybe we don't have a lot of depth and talent in EVERY positon, but we certainly have enough to do SOME damage somewhere...even if it's the bottomfeeders.. I'm okay with that under the circumstances this year.
I don't see this happening though. I think we're at the point where nobody knows anything. Especially the media. One writer, or outlet, tv report starts mimicking the other. It's become fashionable and the expectation that Auburn will suck this year, so they all maintain the same theme. No real reasons other than what they've read and seen from someone else doing the same thing. Part of having a staff that NOBODY has a clue about.
Now, if after this year, we're mediocre and the same "Auburn sucks" reports come out AFTER this year, then phuk'n A.
I'm in complete and total standbye mode, while just being excited for Auburn Football and everything that goes with it.
You're wrong about people "knowing things"
I just don't get that part of your position. Yes, people DO know things. People who've watched practices, talked to players, talked to coaches, seen clips, etc. They DO know things. They know things based on their experience, based on what they see and based on what they hear.
People in the media don't just sit around and wait to heat what Chris Fowler says so they can say the same thing. As a general rule, people in that business want more than anything to be right and to be first. They're not typically going to parrot something somebody else says unless they have a reason to.
It's easy to point out the times when the media is wrong. Lou Holtz predicts Notre Dame to play for the NC every year until they lose their fourth game of the season. But for every loony Lou Holtz prediction the guys who watch the games and really know what's going on get it right 90% of the time.
I'm NOT okay with three wins this season. I'm NOT okay with beating up on bottomfeeders. Not at all.
Agree to disagree then. I've seen way too many cookie cutter, no depth articles that make me feel the way I do.
give:doh:
See, for example, any article praising Houston Nutt's coaching abilities.
Disagree there too.
He's a lunatic and has some mental issues, but he can occasionally coach.
In ten years in the SEC he has a roughly .500 winning percentage. A large percentage of those wins came against OM/MSU/Vandy.
The guy is a complete clown and the lazy phuking media just keep regurgitation bullpoop about him.
He did a good job recruiting decent talent to one of the most difficult places to recruit in the SEC. He's got a .500 record which is better than most in the league.
I wouldn't want him at Auburn because he coaches from emotion. Emotional guys will occasionally win big games, but they'll also lose a lot of small ones.
No, he didn't. He is the laziest recruiter in the SEC. McFadden/Jones (Matt and Felix)/etc fell into his lap because they WANTED to play at UA.
I agree with this. It is also why I think he's a poopty coach. Good coaches are steady and professional. Emotional coaches are phuk ups that luck into a win occasionally.
Do you have a link for any of that?
www.woopig.net (http://www.woopig.net)
They can give you chapter and verse...along with a 48 page primer...on Nutt's failures as a coach.

3-9?Welcome...It's about time you showed up, Kaos has been singing (drooling?) your praises. Great first post, keep'em coming.
No way.
Now I'm not going to talk about Chizik, cause quite frankly I'm pretty phuking sick of talking about him. We know what we know...the record...the rhetortic...etc. The only thing that remains, and of any interest, is what we don't know. That, we find out shortly.
But I have to agree with the poster who said you can't have it both ways. You can't pick a team to win the West and then turn around and call them lacking in talent. We have the talent up front.
And if you think talent can't be coached by morons...let me direct you to Baton Rouge, LA.
3-9. Horsemanure.

And BZZZ? Laughing at the prospect of losing to La. Tech like it could never happen? Bad karma for one, completely wrong for another. We don't know what we've got. We have anything like the clusterphuks Chizik fielded at ISU -- and please spare me the talent and population comparisons -- and losing isn't only possible, it's likely.
I would like to take a minute to give Fox Sports the following message:TAKE YOUR 3-9 PREDICTION AND SHOVE IT DIRECTLY UP YOUR COLLECTIVE ASS.
Carry on.
Spocker?
Louisiana Tech @ Auburn 23-15Good picks so far! :thumbsup:

Actually, that looks very similar to my Crown picks. But, I'm coming back though. I have a secret weapon.
I would like to take a minute to give Fox Sports the following message:TAKE YOUR 3-9 PREDICTION AND SHOVE IT DIRECTLY UP YOUR COLLECTIVE ASS.
Carry on.
If you read the rules and regulations for "the Battle for the Crown", it clearly states in Section 2 Article IV, that secret weapons and the use thereof are not prohibited.
Who'll know? It's secret.
Does that mean I can or can't use my secret weapon?

Ok, so they're off by one...So you predict us going 0-8 for the rest of the season?
So you predict us going 0-8 for the rest of the season?
I don't predict anything. I made a joke.You implied that Auburn would win zero more games this year.
You, typically, peed the bed.
I, in customary fashion, laughed.
Have you guys heard of new "Oops, I crapped my pants" undergarments? Oops, I crapped my pants will alleviate those unsightly pee stains on the sheets and you can piss yourself feeling secure and confident. In fact, I'm pissing myself right now.
I don't predict anything. I made a joke.
You, typically, peed the bed.
I, in customary fashion, laughed.
You implied that Auburn would win zero more games this year.
I asked a question. How you derived that I "peed the bed" is baffling.
You, in customary fashion, in fact peed the bed.
I implied nothing.You're only fooling yourself. You said Fox Sports was only "1 off" on their pick of Auburn going 3-9. We currently have 4 wins. This, in fact, implies, that Auburn is to win zero more games this year. 4-1 = 3, Kevin.
I made a joke.Fair enough. I don't get it. Ha ha, Auburn's not going to win another game all season.
You, in customary fashion, rushed to attempt to score a point on Kaos because you're about four billion behind.I asked a simple question. A one sentence question.
You, again, failed.So yes or no? Auburn is going to win zero more games the rest of the season? If the answer's no, then why make the original statement, let alone drag this into another Kevin's rhetorical battle for all-knowing supremecy argument? Why not just say, "Nah, I was just kidding." Fact is, you're wrong about 90% of the things you've stated as fact in the calendar year of 2009. The things that anyone who dare disagree clearly have the cognitive ability of a retarded rhesus monkey. A little humility after being so embarrassingly wrong about your flagship stance would do you good. Just keep on touting how you're more evolved than the rest of us, though. How you have a third eye for seeing the future. We'll keep laughing at the homeless guy with a bullhorn screaming about the end of the world. We'll laugh when he tells us we're ignorant, and insane.
I, again, laughed. Twice now.That makes four total laughs.

It was a GODDAM joke, Chopperzad. Take your own advice and fucking lighten up, Francis.Take the last word. I don't want it.
Take the last word. I don't want it.
Who wants a mustache ride????I do I do...
Kaos,
The joke didn't work. Stop trying to always have the last word. Move on.
Sincerely
Aubie16
Ya'll are some thin-skinned fucking pussy bitches.
That's all I got to say about that.
Fucking RIDICULOUS.
Fuck all of you.
Somebody call the Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmbulance.
the rest of you shit the bed, pissed your pants or performed whatever excretory analogy you wish to use.
DOODIE!!!!!!(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_vY8I5HvOvk8/SZHWBzBOhFI/AAAAAAAACk4/N1BDl1TCaHo/s400/caddyshack200.jpg)
The rest of who?
DOODIE!!!!!!The picture reminds of me of what I did to that Mellow Mushroom stall.
Whoever the shoe fits, I don't keep up with the dead bodies.
So you predict us going 0-8 for the rest of the season?This. This is what set you off on your tirade. I was simply asking for clarification on your previous statement.
This. This is what set you off on your tirade. I was simply asking for clarification on your previous statement.
If you were in fact joking, then I was joking myself. If you weren't, then I was making sure.
That's when you "poop the bed."
Chad, honey, baby....What set me off on my rant was seeing the ten billionth time you have tried to convince everyone that you're benevolent and everyone else is a dipshit "pissing the bed". I never pissed the bed until way after I was accused of such. Then it was more of a "For fuck's sake, this again?"
The only tirade was from you. It started with some how I was "fooling myself" and went from there.
But that's okay. I was just fooling you. It was amusing anyway.
DOODIE!!!!!!
What set me off on my rant was seeing the ten billionth time you have tried to convince everyone that you're benevolent and everyone else is a dippoop "pissing the bed". I never pissed the bed until way after I was accused of such. Then it was more of a "For phuk's sake, this again?"
You're never wrong, only "kidding" and "baiting".
So you admit that I didn't rant. Thanks. That's a start."Going Volcano" =
Second, you admit that you rushed to judgement when anyone should have been able to see I was making fun of even myself with that comment. So we're good there, too.
Third, you admit to transferring the "everybody else" analogy when it really doesn't apply. I want you to think hard on this. In the last year how many people on this board have I called ignorant, accused of pissing the bed or whatever? The number, my friend, is very, very small. Like in the ones. Or maybe fives. What's happened is you've allowed the constant mewling of one to somehow magically transform into the cries of the many. I've disagreed with many of you on various topics. But there's no "calling everyone" anything. Step back and take a look. I'll wait.
I wasn't "kidding" and wasn't "baiting" here at all. I rarely do either. I was taking a shot at predictions of disaster -- including my own -- but you were so ready to start "this again" that you couldn't take ten seconds to figure it out. There was no "this again" until YOU went volcano. But that's okay. I don't mind.
So you predict us going 0-8 for the rest of the season?
"Going Volcano" =
No, baby love, going volcano = everything that came after that.Everything that came after = the very next post by you.
I don't predict anything. I made a joke.This is a fact, and is not up for debate.
You, typically, peed the bed.
I, in customary fashion, laughed.
What happened to you not wanting the last word? I mean because if you do you need to go ahead and say so.I gave you the last word. You drug that out to 15 posts. I assure you, you will have the last word. You give waaaaaay more of a shit about these petty arguments and "keeping score" than I do. So go ahead. Have the last word, then 25 more posts in which you attempt to convolve the facts of what actually took place. Mark this as a win in your record books. The sad thing is your record book more slanted to your favor in your mind only than bammers and their book on national championships.
But the worst rapper, I ever heard man
Is the wack ass motherphuking Birdman
This man has mad skillz!
Does that mean I can or can't use my secret weapon?
Who'll know? It's secret.Strong enough for a man, but made for AWK?
