Title: Give Me Independence or...
Post by: Kaos on November 30, 2015, 11:10:22 PM
...actually, I'll take nothing.

Missouri says "no thanks" to Independence Bowl invite.

I'd almost like to see AU say "ahhhhh... fuck Birmingham...." if that's what is offered.

You know Jay Jacobs will jump at the first invite, then he'll give most of the tickets out to his buddies.

Don't think his buddies would be seen in the area around legion field without security.

Cause we need the practice. No worries that we haven't got it right the last 4 months.

Yes.  Coal in my stocking.  I shall use it to build a small fire and warm myself.  Thank you Santa! Thank you. 

Birmingham SUCKS.  It is not a destination city, would not be fun for the players, and we have nothing to gain.  Win and we won the Birmingham Bowl.  Yippee!  Lose and **cringe**

If our "quarterback of the future" is not on campus or is not healthy?  What's the point?  Is it worth the chance of getting injured for the players we have on the roster who are borderline at making the NFL anyway?  Maybe I'm just cynical, but if I had even a slim chance at making an NFL roster, I'm not going to be excited about getting banged up in the fucking Birmingturd bowl.  Just saying.

First sign?   :facepalm:  See 2008-see 2011-see-2012-see 2015-see 2016

Or fans who follow blindly? Simply questioning  WTF is going on, being highly disappointed on how things are going, and looking at the overall picture of football in our state ( read somewhere that the turds have lost 11 games total since 2008) Us shitty fans have not jumped ship, just tried of watching the every other year that is Auburn abortion football.

So quit watching, most of those years you mentioned were other coaches.  Hate to tell you but I would still rather have all of those seasons, for 2010.  Ask UGA how consistency feels.

Get over yourself dude. Season's over we sucked this year, it happens.  Wasn't as bad as it could have been.

If you think I accept mediocrity easy, you obviously don't know me.

I control what I can, and dont worry about what I can't.

We know we sucked balls. Its established. Im just not sure how many times we have to or need to hear it. We know, we get it. I'm gonna be a fan of this school and everything it means regardless. We are everything those fucking inbreds across the state aren't - like, in LIFE....If that is following blindly, then color me guilty.

Color me bad.  Dallas, not sure how much we as fans can do....or want to do.  I know the obvious answer is turn your back on them.  Don't go. Don't watch.  Sorry, but as long as I think they're making the effort, my fat ass will be in a seat either in JHS or in front of a wide screen.  I said earlier that there was only one time ever that I did that, and that was 2012 at the A&M game.  When it became painfully clear that the players themselves had given up, stopped trying, quit....I was genuinely pissed that I took the time and effort to attend. 

Otherwise, as long as I feel like they're doing everything they can to put the best possible product on the field, I'm hauling that same fat ass to God's country on football Saturdays.  It's one thing to disagree with a decision (They should play this RB over that one....why are they letting this QB throw it so much?).  But I'm not going to turn my back on them just because I don't like the decisions a coach is making. 

Saturday was a prime example.  I didn't have any expectations about the game.  We could have/should have won it with a decent QB.  But damn, the tailgate at Joe's and Tiger Walk and seeing some old friends and the F-35 flyovers were all epic.

^^This. About him having a fat ass.

We tried and fought and improved this year. I will always support that. 2012, no. Quitters were on that team.

Said it before, will say it again. We were a QB away from being a 1 or 2 loss team this year.

The diamond in the rough here is the chance to stay in a cheap hotel in Eastlake and go crash a karaoke party over off Lakeshore Drive. We can all meet up at McDonalds in Trussville and have an ice cream cone. GH, make to drive by the Auburn campus and pick some Wild Turkey.

Those bad boys were hauling ass.  Probably doing about 1/100th of what they can do but still rocked the hell out of JHS.  Every flyover I've seen has come from the mega-tron XJ 6,000 Transformer's Scoreboard side. So everyone was looking that way, as is the person filming this.  Then they blasted us from the opposite side.

You'll definitely have to rely on the folks traveling in for this one as the B'ham contingent has proven to be unreliable in the past.  Less and except Jumbo, of course.

First. If this were true, you would know they were F16s.

The lead plane was Col. Len Borowski.

My center in high school. My roommate at AU. My friend for life.

He will retire in June. That was his last flyover for his alma mater.

Damn. I just teared up!

Mea culpa.  I said F-35 because I had axed somebody what they were at the game.  Never listen to a 10 year old again.  They just look like badass jets to me.

I would think that B'ham doesn't want Auburn to play in their bowl game.   It would people like me that would drive down, watch the game, eat and drive home.   They really need an out of town team that can travel well to fill up hotels and restaurants.   It doesn't make sense to me for them to invite us.  I figure we get Nashville, Memphis or Shreveport.
