WarDamnEagleWDE 12,737 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 Gonna be a long day leading up to the game. Pace yourselves, folks. Drink plenty of water. Going to be a challenge for me b/c i know i'll be on edge all day. Now i got to water down the good stuff to make sure 1. I can still calm my nerves some & 2. I'm not hammered by the time kickoff arrives. hell, I might go fishing or play golf to stay out of the juice a little longer. Amateurs. Yep.

ellitor 33,093 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I hope that's the Todd Blackledge crew. I like them the best when it comes to calling games. Brad Nessler is on that crew. He will take over for Vern on CBS when he retires at some point. Not sure when though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburn4ever 1,266 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I too hope it's the Todd Blackledge and his crew calling the Auburn. BTW, is that 8 CST or eastern time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatBoCamRob 30 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 That's it. I'm going to this one. 4th quarter will be pushing 1:00 AM "Clempson Standard Time". The Turds kick an hour ahead, without their blindside tackle, against CLK's former employer in a neutral location. I want to be in JHS when we are playing the #2 team tight and the #1 team falls. Also, thank you football gods... For the first time I can remember, we aren't kicking at 11:00 AM in the late August sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you give me some room for exaggeration, I think my point stands. 2011 was 11AM 2013 was 6PM 2014 was 3PM There are a lot of 6PMs going back the last decade or 2. I can handle the 6PMs. I'm not so much worried about the TV time and getting drunk. I hate having to park and walk when the sun is high in the summer in Alabama. It's draining. Humor me a little more and look at the second game. It's that Sept 5 or Sept 12 @ 11AM that'll get you, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoundationEagle 637 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Gonna be a long day leading up to the game. Pace yourselves, folks. Drink plenty of water. As usual for every opening weekend...I should be on the beach in the private beachfront house my father in law rents every year.

looney 794 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 It's going to be an Orange Out...All Auburn All Orange. <rant> (Not directed at you, autigeremt, I understand this is a school-sanctioned thing.) This chaps my hide every time I hear it. It sounds desperate. It sounds like pandering. "White Outs" work because there's a culturally known term that sounds like it (the eponymous name for correction fluid). "Black Outs" work because it also sounds like a culturally-known term (for a power outage or Golf's state by 6PM on autumn Saturdays). BUT THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS AN ORANGE-OUT. That's just taking one of our colors and adjoining it with a word other schools have appended to their colors because someone thought it would give us a unique theme for a game. It doesn't. I think we can do better. Let's call it an Orange Crush, because, you know, that's a thing people have bought in a vending machine before. Call it a Clockwork Orange and intimidate the visiting fans with ultra-violence (no, not really) and offer them Milk Plus at tailgates. Agent Orange? To kill their plants? (Okay, bad example.) </rant> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
