The difference between you and others is that you know that it doesn't make a difference. 😄 Some "others" think that AU fans that try and think positively, at least before the *"&$#'"& start of the first game , are the REASON that AU is not better. In.... pick a sport. 

As the guys in the movie say,   "it just doesn't matter.….."

And I would remind all those like me that are not giving every last dime to NIL , that the money men are paying big money to coaches that are not coaching. At least for AU. And it's easy to spend money that's not yours. 

 

And, wait for it....how true of a fan you are will be directly proportional to whether you Go-Fund-Me college athletes. 

Won't bother me one iota.  I refuse to contribute to the ri-FREAKING-diculous notion of paying towards NIL. It's their responsibility to market themselves. Not mine.

Some of us aren’t in a position to donate anything “significant”. But I promise you that if I was… you better believe I would be pouring my money into OTV! And I would expect any hardcore Auburn fan to do the same. 

And that’s what I don’t understand. Your money goes further now more than ever! We are supposedly funded by 4-5 different billionaires (according to WDE). It’s now LEGAL to pay for players. If we truly have the money, we should be competitive in EVERY sport. 

There are sports that we’ve never been truly competitive in, but we should have an opportunity to change that now. I don’t expect the NIL “Wild West” to last forever…. But while it’s here, we should be getting the talent we need in EVERY sport. 

This is where I am: I don't have to change just because the college landscape did. I'll bitch and moan about what I want to, whether I contribute or not. It won't make an ounce of difference,just like it never has, so I'm good...😎

What exactly is wrong with an alumni/fan being disappointed that the University they support both emotionally and financially is stuck in a rut of mediocrity?

Hell, man, the official Auburn sports site won’t even post losses on the front page, you have to dig to find a score, though you know by the absence it’s a loss. 
 

When the university caters to supporters who can only handle the good news…that’s a problem. Whoever is making those decisions needs a knot jerked in their…

Then sounds like you’ve answered your own question. 

Oh yeah? Well, it doesn't mean I'm right...😆

Good for all involved. Now let’s get some real play makers in here at the guard spot once again. 

Once again? Since when? Only Jared Harper comes to mind at point.

You have to be invited to come back.

You also have to be invited the first time to be invited to come back.

Do we really think Bruce will finally get the G position right?  This is becoming a bad look for him in an otherwise good Auburn career...

No one is commenting on Camden Brown’s performance. He had several non-drops yesterday.

Lol! Really? He's just giving his honest take. Chill, fellas.

Good ole ESPN, probably cut away to mention that UA is in the F4 tomorrow. 

That's tonight.

Time to worry about the OL. Again.

Meh…all they did was pass-block, basically. Hard to gauge.

Can you elaborate those who couldn’t watch? Much appreciated. 

Those watching didn’t see it, either.😎

Freaking ESPN camera work missed the 58 yarder by McGough to end the scrimmage.

Spring ball is always such a great Indicator👍

It was pretty accurate last spring..😂

This team is still so bad on offense. 

Maybe it has something to do with what appears that we have one play with 3 variations.

This A-Day offensive performance isn't depressing enough, gonna head on over to radio and listen to Andy...

His point has some merit regarding the difference in the conferences but I thought Bo had NFL aspirations. If he thinks they’ll just care about a guy doing his best win or lose, he best rethink that. It’s purely business and it will be more of an SEC mindset than PAC for certain. 
The fans do need to check some of the emotion but he’s not going to find a “laid back” atmosphere anywhere in the NFL. 
The problem at Auburn was that his two head coaches were too laid back to ever provide him with the tools to be as successful as he could have been. 

My first reply was tongue in cheek. He’s right, actually.

It’s a big reason Oregon has all that National Championship hardware…

Sorry to hear this. I remember Dye’s first staff well.

I used to the think the bammers were the ‘kings of losing excusers,’ but damn if we don’t give ‘em a run for their money.

At least according to ESPN, all SEC schools (including UGA) spring games will be on SEC+ except for Alabama which is on ESPN

There's no bammer bias at ESPN, right, Rece Davis?

No. Just don't care to see any "road wins is haaaard" posts if we somehow choke on this one. 

Just popping in to remind everyone that road wins in the SEC are hard.
