  1. It's funny, still not gonna get me to watch MLB though
  2. food was part of it, also money and cars/parts. Dye was never fully proven to be one of the coaches handing out the cash, but was implicated strongly. Dye always denied it, claiming his fault in it was simple negligence. And it very well could have been. But again, that's all a moot point to a kid. I made the list earlier tongue in cheek cause I know what he did for Auburn, I understand his accomplishments. But man, if you wanna talk about a personal experience being soured... that first season for me was it.
  3. Have your first season as an AU fan going to and reading/talking about the games, .....and Auburn winning every dang one. But also on a TV ban and ineligible for SEC championship. You might change your mind.
  4. Gus Tubs Chiz Cadillac Dye FS boy Potato boy In that order. I'm not as old as a lot of you. Only remember Dye as that guy who got a crazy talented Auburn team ineligible by cheating. 🤷‍♂️ Still better than those other two though
  5. Just to play devils advocate here; He's also a guy that was a legacy 3 year starter, job in 0 jeopardy, had NIL deals and 4th year starter locked up. Then saw things being kinda sucky with the new HC hire and just said "F Auburn, I'm out" Don't get me wrong, I understand why he did it, I can appreciate why he did it. His college path to the NFL got much easier after leaving, and Auburn undoubtedly fielded a crappier offense without him. But as a fan, the proven starters that said screw this I'm gone; hurts.
  6. That's what I figure, measurables in combine were decently similar to D Brown, but Brown did it carrying an extra like 40-50lbs. I don't see him adding that kinda weight without slowing himself down a good bit.
  7. I see what you did there Does make me wonder though, how many 1st round draft picks, of any position have transferred out of Auburn?
  8. Show all his Oregon highlights but CGI an Auburn jersey on him and only him
  9. lmao, bro I was gonna post that. But knew I'd be beating a dead horse. Thread gets made for D. Brown getting drafted and one of the first replies is; "Drafted huh, so not an Auburn Tiger anymore. Move this thread." But if an Oregon QB gets drafted it's ok, And for the record, I'm not against this thread being in the AU forum, I like it. I think during off season/NFL draft time we should let these threads go for ALL Auburn players.... and not just the fan favorites/transfers. Depending on the year he was average to above average... when he was hyped by so many to be Cam level of superstar. That's not his fault, but it is reality. To be fair, I don't remember a lot of Seth hate either, he was our best WR for awhile for sure.
  10. It's weird, right? Every time Nix comes up there are a ton of "everybody hated this guy, but look at this!" type comments. But going back to a lot of those threads, there wasn't a lot of hate. Unless you count comments like; "He throws off his back foot a bit too much" or ""Sometimes I think he's too quick to run out of the pocket" or "I wish he was more accurate on some of the passes over the middle" It's weird to see things like that spun as 'constant hatred' 🤷‍♂️ I think they are going off of stats, his ORE vs UGA game was.... not stellar But, no ones was that year. Heres an extra tidbit too that I found odd. Caleb Williams Heisman year where he easily won: Bo Nix stats the very next year.. good for 3rd place in Heisman race: I didn't catch any combine this year, but have to imagine Bo did awesome, cause people were not giving him the respect for his on field product that the numbers suggest they should have.
  11. Gotta remember it's extremely hard to prove. Especially when forms of identification aren't required it is near impossible. Local elections have had this issue pop up more than national ones, where a "missing" ballot box pops up in a tightly contested race, but that one box is filled with 100% votes for one candidate... In an area where a few hundred votes can make the swing. Guy named Rodriguez (sp?) ran for a caucus in TX when I was in the army (which you have to hear about cause Army=Tons of Texans), lost due to some very shady ballots at the end all stuffed with his opponents name. He charged voter fraud but lost since it could not be definitively proven it was fraud. You would think Tammany Hall would be all the history we needed as a country to want to insure legitimacy of every vote.
  12. I think you know, studies show those type of people, given the chance to vote... do so for a democrat. But lets not act like it's a moral victory for republicans, if a study came out that showed they were more likely to vote republican the blues and reds would simply switch their current stances. And that's backed by Fox news, ...and a couple dudes I talked to outside Mobile.
  13. @homersapien You got 300 years on this Earth Homie, you gotta learn to laugh
  14. In my experience, except for the cases where it was actual abuse... the parents are more traumatized in the long run than the kid. I'll hear parents give every detail of a whooping they gave their kid, then ask the now adult child about it and they either don't remember it at all or they tell it through the lense of their father/mother. Someone previously mentioned the "This hurts me more than it hurts you" line... and in the long run, for good parents at least. That is true. 😕
  15. Quiet Dub, we all know Biden spoke the words "Let my people.... experience crazy inflation!" And the economy god made it so.
  16. That is a good point. @DKW 86 Did you circle beat that neighbor of yours?
  17. I get your point of view for sure... but dang man, I'd have been too astounded to even punish him Kid is 6, realized he needed to be somewhere, saw his usual ways of getting to that place was unavailable. Still got himself 100% ready and then went out of his home to procure transportation for himself and got where he needed to be. I've always tried to avoid that. Not a "never spanker" but usually used as a deterrent towards danger. Kid may not have proper respect for the cliff he's near, but if he hears he'll get a spanking if he gets close to the edge he'll not likely walk to the edge.
  18. I mean, I get that 100%. But you'd think some one or some government group would be like... In case this epidemic isn't the end of the world, lets take advantage of oil prices bottoming out. And for all I know we did, and then just used a crap ton more right after 🤷‍♂️
  19. You'd think in Feb 2020 we coulda maxxed that out easy with the insane price drop oil experienced.
  20. Not a fan of the dude by any means, but some of the blame you're laying on him ain't him. Last storm we had knocked a tree down that smashed my mailbox, should I blame Joe for that too? He's head of the executive branch, not emperor. This is by no means a "You" thing, it's become an American theme to blame the president for anything and everything that happens during his term for awhile.... Thanks Obama! Also, calling the days he can't work cause the dementia hittin' too hard a "vacation" day seems disingenuous.
  21. So sad this dude died without ever finding his wifes killer.
  22. Does Putin disgust you? Not when I do it, but other peoples do.
