WDE!!! http://www.usatoday....nn-lsu/2047607/ Thanks for the link Bird. I guess slimeballs of the feather do stick together. Emmert and Saban, a match made in hell. I had a suspicion Emmert was self serving sob and Emmert's background in the article pretty much proves that. He needs to go but its going to take a lot more arfticles like this one to get the ball rolling. As I think about it, he is a whole lot like Teflon Bill. Not only is college athletics in trouble but this whole country is in trouble. I'm glad I am as old as I am. I don't like what's comiing down the road. WDE!!!! anyway!!!

TheBlueVue 177 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Mark Emmert has quite a checkered past which casts more than just a little concern about his ethical standards and his worthiness of his job of President of the NCAA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTiger 0 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I have not seen a reply yet. I know he is a homer and was very kind in my opinion. Not that it matters, but I had to express my opinion after this crap came up again. Subject: Auburn football's still stuck in limbo between innocent and not guilty (Scarbinsky) Kevin I want to thank you for reporting and not bashing us since many reporters seem to live for that opportunity. It just seems like there is an ongoing campaign to keep Auburn down and hopefully destroy us. I almost found it comical when the writer said Kirkpatrick was offered money by Auburn , but had no reference as to how a college kid could afford to drive the car he drove while at bama and with vanity plates ! Wow……they were really thorough with their homework on these players. At least they won’t be accused of being F & B like Fox News. You have to ask yourself what school would benefit the most from our demise ? Is Auburn really hated that bad nationally ? We have gotten more negative press than USC (had proof), Miami (had proof), Oregon (had proof) and Penn State combined ! If the T-Town Menswear pictures and website was TIGER Town Menswear would it have gone away or would we see headlines on Auburn’s pending probation ? We both know the answer to that. There was a great piece written a year of so ago along the theme of Auburn being viewed by the nation through the eyes of the Birmingham press. I am sure the honesty in print brought that writer plenty of hate mail. The bama press tends to squash rumors about bama and fan the flames on anything negative about Auburn. Auburn has only Auburn people to count on in protecting our image and shaping public opinion. Alabama has the bama press in their back pocket (NOT you, but most writers), employees at ESPN, Emmert (Saban’s friend) and now they even have a bama grad on the NCAA enforcement staff ? There is plenty of power and inside information that can be used for good or bad to shape public opinion and it continues to happen. On a related note you have to wonder with the NCAA trying to improve their image would hire a grad from a university with bama’s NCAA probation record. Would Auburn grads be considered for employment on the enforcement staff ? Anyway, all Auburn folks are sick to death of the lacking journalistic integrity consistently shown when reporting on our school. You probably bleed crimson, but I will end this with thanking you again for being F & B. You are definitely a minority in Alabama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU-HANDLEY-TIGER 205 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 The truth is the damage is done, we all know where this "stuff" comes from - the attacts started the minute the clock hit 0 at updyke u in 2010. Espn has had an agenda against Auburn since Tubberville attacked Holtz. We all know that to get the hunter off your trail you put him on the scent of other game. The updykes have always played this dirty little game- they cheat and we go on probation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUld fAUx@ 2,584 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 First off, I apologize if this point has been made previously but I haven't gone through all the pages of this thread to find out. Anyway, let us not forget what is at the base of this WHOLE thing. A guy, about to stand trial for armed robbery and who was kicked off the team for that very reason, essentially launched this thing, (btw, axe to grind, anyone?). This is "wag the dog" at its finest. The guy stands to gain by casting AU in a horrible light and framing himself as the victim during his trial. The "reporter" stands to gain because she has lost any meaningful journalism job she's ever held and now is trying to get traction on her pathetic website...it's a career saving ploy, pure and simple. Lest we forget, by the way, there are two more people whose trials have not come up yet. We WILL see this again, twice more at least, when they come to trial. Nobody will look behind the curtain to see the sad old man when the wizard's flame and thunder of misdirection and misinformation has captured their attention. WDE The trial must go on, despite recent revelations http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/9139292/judge-sets-robbery-trial-auburn-tigers-mike-mcneil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the talk that came out of their camp saying our 2010 NC should have an asterisk and these rednecks were actually on probation winning their NCs LOL ! I don't think I have heard the media bring that point up during a broadcast. The one thing we know is if a story breaks exposing the turds it will have to come from press outside the state like the Means case. War Eagle !

douggwilliams 61 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Shlabach may be too smart for ESPN. Or something. I was listening to ESPN on the way to the grocery today and it was bad. They didnt cover a story, they were saying today is only about basketball, not Rutgers abusing their players or Auburn paying its players. It is hilarious how they put video evidence in the same category as heresy and rhetoric. Loving Fox Sports stepping up their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
