ShugMan55 0 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 These arent for anyone other than recruits etc to get the name of Auburn in their minds. 17-19 year olds and maybe even younger depending on skill will eat this stuff up. Its not for the older folks who cant lace cleats up anymore Yeah but those 17 and 19 year olds will hate the crap they are doing in 2055. I hope it works better than our 13 seconds better motto from last year. I'm sacred to come back to this thread because I think there is significant chance that someone will start talking about branding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McLoofus 35,182 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I hear you guys. I also dislike all the fluff. I dislike silly billboards, superfluous gear, celebrating every first down as if it redefined the sport, commitment ceremonies, emojis, adding -core to normal words to genre-ize every facet of life, staring at tiny screens while on vacation, autotune, taking pictures of your food in restaurants, #hashtags... ...but, as some have mentioned, it doesn't really matter what we like and don't like. What does matter is attracting extremely talented football players who will be able to stay in school and more or less not embarrass themselves, the team or the University off the field. If this is what they like- and as long as things stay between the ditches ethically- then grin and bear it. Or just bear it- grinning does seem to be asking a bit much.

I bear it with regret, remembering simpler times and less loud, meaningless noise. I think that's where John Prine was when he wrote the great song "Quit hollering at me." Grinning is out of the question. I help young ones (that try) as old guys helped me when I was young because that's my duty. But I dislike anyone under 40 as they don't ache and tire and can eat that wonderful food that I can no longer digest without great inconvenience. Youth is not wasted on the young - perspective is wasted on the old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey tradition is what makes Auburn and because of that our uniforms will stay old school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
