  1. It seemed like he was wasted but he had a couple of lingering injuries that prevented him from being able to play to his capabilities. Hoping this year turns around for him and the passing game.
  2. If that was a Dodge Charger I'd be really worried.
  3. Kodi wasn't credited with him per the recruiting rankings of coaches. Kodi was not rated.
  4. No, not if we can prove at one time or another he has been known to sweat in the hot summer sun while others worked in air conditioning.
  5. Not a Mod but maybe if you had an Ovaltine Little Orphan Annie decoder ring. (Seasonal humor, sorry). Love that movie.
  6. Glad to know I wasn't the only one that was not ever angry or upset during the game (except the arm if my couch took a pretty good lick on the Chandler Cox interception). I was hoping I wasn't just becoming indifferent because I just felt nothing. Bama just looked ready for everything and we had no answers or adjustments. I am still a Gus fan but I hope he does some soul searching the next few months. I don't want to change head coaches, I want our head coach to change. War Eagle.
  7. http://www.al.com/auburnfootball/index.ssf/2016/10/how_a_scary_moment_made_4-star.html#incart_river_mobile_index. This isn't really surprising to Auburn fans that the coaches would do this. It's great to see that a talented player like Britt have the foresight to see that Auburn coaches care about the individual every bit as much or more than the talent he possesses. Congratulations to Kenney for choosing Auburn and congratulations to Auburn for staying on him and showing him what Auburn is all about.
  8. My Direct TV keeps having signal problems. I may consider myself lucky before the night is over.
  9. When do they get the Phillies again? They need to sweep them when they get a chance to put some distance between them. It's incredible right now because everytime one wins so does the other.
  10. This Braves team is surprising the heck out of me- I was starting to get used to the fact that they were going to have another year of mediocrity but they are really playing great baseball lately. It's a long season and stuff can happen but they sure are fun to follow right now. I would love for them to win it all for Bobby this year. He certainly deserves more than 1 championship for all he has done for that franchise. I don't think any real baseball fan in any city would mind him winning this year.
  11. The problem isn't Bobby Cox. He is a good manager and was considered a genius when Ted Turner owned the team and they spent money like the Yankees and Red Sox. The current owners are not going to spend the money it takes to have the pitching staff that we got used to in the 90's and early 2000's. It is time for him to go but not because he forgot how to manage. No one can win consistently with average talent. This year's team has a few good players on it but that's it. Chipper is on the downhill side of his career. So is Hudson. It seems that most of the time when a player has the chance to come to Atlanta (money aside) they always say they have always wanted to play for Bobby Cox. As far as him leaving the starters in too long he has always done that. I don't know why but maybe Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz, Neagle, Millwood and the others spoiled him. He knew not to take them out until they said so. The bullpen has never been a strong suit for Atlanta. They have had a few lights-out closers but no middle relief. When they have decent middle relief the closer seems to blow it. Their greatest years were when the big four consistently went 8 innings. I hate what the last 4 years have been like but unless another Ted Turner comes along we may as well get used to it.
