AU64 10,122 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Think he is doing color which will give him time to point out that if the MSU QB had pitched the ball back to Ballard on that last play, Auburn would have lost the game.

AtlantaAU 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Okay, color me a little confused, but why is this a big deal? Because of Saban for the Oregon game? I don't have any issues with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Tiger 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Meyer was the mouth peace for the NYT story that started the Cam saga. He has made it clear that he has a ax to grind with Auburn, it for the most part shows a lack of class. When the Leach story broke at Texas Tech the mouth piece for the story Craig James was not allowed to work the TT games. Not quite apples to apples but close enough to make the point.

Weegle777 78 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Every Auburn game that I have ever watched on tv had announcers that would make it abundantly clear through their words that they were for whoever Auburn was playing. Par for the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbone4jc 2,241 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 In the scheme of things, is this really worth the attention we are giving this! I am tired of hearing how ESPN is trying to do this or that to Auburn. True enough they jumped the gun on us last year and probably will never get over the fact that were completely wrong but we were the big fish last season and every news outlet was after us because there was smoke and it seemed to be a breaking story. Did they go to far? YES! Will they ever apologize? Very doubtful. But it seems redundant as well as making the issue with ESPN a mountain out of what is now amounting to a Moe hill. It isn't effecting the football team whatsoever nor does it in any way effect the outcome of ANY football game or our recruiting. I just wish we could stop giving life to every storyfrom ESPM, NYt or any other media source theat in the long run has no relevance to Auburn. To me, we should have a issue with the NCAA compliance committee for taking an insane amount of time to say that we have done no wrong and the investigation is over. War Eagle!

But Auburn has never had an unbiased announcer for their games on tv, so nothing new. Just listen to Rod and Stan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUCrete 0 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I will watch the game. I will NOT, however, watch gameday, or any other "analysis" show that is aired on espn. Period. I'm not a paranoid AU fan, but their agenda makes me want to puke. War Eagle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telling tiger 156 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Hypocrisy- allowing Urban Meyer to sit on a panel discussing college football reforms while being the coach that oversaw 21 verified arrest at Floriduh and who knows how many arrest that never saw the light of day or TV cameras.

Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Or listen to Rod and Stan! That's the best solution right there! I really enjoy listening to them. They actually pronounce Auburn players names correctly... They are professionals, and they do an outstanding job. To me, it makes the game so much better.

Weegle777 78 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I'm usually so focused on the play on the field that I rarely ever pay any attention to what the announcers are saying anyway. No biggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AEAugirl 9,633 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Augirl's 4 step process to an enjoyable Auburn game experience: Step One: Tune your TV to broadcast of Auburn Game. Step Two: Tune your radio to your local affiliate of the Auburn Football Network Step Three: Mute TV Step Four: ENJOY!!! And, as an added bonus, Rod and Stan are usually a few seconds ahead of the TV broadcast..for those of you like me who can't take the suspense, I LOVE knowing what is going to happen then watching it happen!!

daveforau 2 Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 If you listen to Rob and Stan like I do with an earplug so no one else is hearing it and with the delay, you can look like a genius when you call a touchdown even before they run the play and then you don't have to listen to the no knowledge commentators on the tv.

There are a ton of folks with an ax to grind with AU. (Even former players have an ax to grind, and go public with their BS stories.) I just don't give a sh!t anymore....
