Please tell me who I trash and belittle on a daily basis… lol. You clearly haven’t been reading threads if you haven’t seen the pot shots, not to mention the double standard. Nothing Mikey said about gus was twisted lol. You’re starting this whole Mikey soap opera and that this place is full of such horrible people and nobody wants to post here.

So it's okay for you to get irritated when you see people responding to Mikey, but our job is to hit the ignore button if he says anything we don't like? He's having fun pointing out all the most negative things he can find without abandoning his support for the program? And we're supposed to let it go unopposed? You might disagree with our disagreement, and I do understand what you mean about driving people away, but you are suggesting that we moderate our own views so that those who disagree with us don't have to moderate theirs. By the way, Mikey started a thread in this very forum to say that the 2022 class was in the exact same position as the 2010 class was, despite COVID and the new transfer rule, and has repeatedly hammered home the point that we are last in the SEC in recruiting rankings. He says he expects us to get better and yada yada, but what is the point of regurgitating that kind of thing over and over right now, if not to be a buzz kill? Can you not understand why we don't need Debbie downers right now? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason it gets made fun of is because he keeps making the same point over and over, despite everyone who knows anything about the program disagreeing with him. He refused to believe WDE when he said Gus sucks a few years ago after he'd gotten some insight into the way Malzahn ran the program, and now, when WDE says recruiting is in a better place than it's been in a decade, Mikey is lacing his posts with negativity veiled as worry.

No, to be honest, I don't remember that. There was a long time when I didn't come online here much, because I was tired of the negativity, too. But that's because the program was in a bad place, and I didn't want to be reminded of the fact, not because people were expressing the negativity over a coach who had gone sour. I do find it amusing that al.com did an article on us, but I suspect that had more to do with the fact that we're the largest Auburn board on the net, not because what was going on here was somehow unlike what was going on at other Auburn message boards.
