I had to turn off after the host said something like, "the ugliest colors...".

Edit: I get it now, Scarborough went to Bama.

Well, I can't stand Robert Gibbs and this worried me. I thought for a minute that he may be an Auburn grad... well he is, but from Auburn High School and not the university. Phew!

Gibbs grew up in Auburn.

Go to 2:10 or so.

Good to know.

Well, IF AU gets to and through Glendale, they will be going to DC to present Obama with an AU jersey.

I heard Scarborough on Finebaum before a few years back. He's as obnoxious as any bammer fan there is.

Robert Gibbs is a complete an utter tool. Never before in my life have I ever wanted to kick a White House Press Secretary in the Juju beans but this cat makes me want to junk punt him every time he's before a camera. At the same time I do like him crushing the soul of a Marxist like Scarborough who is also a Bama fan.

I know he grew up in Auburn but all of a sudden he is the biggest AU fan? He did go to NC State if Im not mistaken. I agree that he is a tool but he went up a notch now that he is publicly pulling for Auburn...so now he is on notch 1.

Not quite. He's always been a fan. In fact, he went to the first time we played South Carolina this year.

I remember a couple of years ago when Obama was doing his NCAA basketball tournament picks and Gibbs was upset about Auburn being left out of the tournament.

Nice. Had not seen that before. WDE.

Folks, steer it back to non-political stuff. A lot of folks here purposely avoid the Politics Forum altogether for a reason.

I think it's cool that such a prominent official is a big Auburn fan.

Is it okay if I say Gibbs is not very impressive and I prefer he not portray himself as an Auburn fan?

It's kind of like Forrest Gump and UA.

The first post to get me laughing today - Classic! "junk punt" - a new favorite expression....

Me too. I guess we only consider people to be part of the "family" if they share "our" political views. By the way, how many of the players do you think share those views?

I heard the Finebaum interview as well. The way he badmouthed CTT was totally classless. He's the biggest I've heard in awhile (& that's saying a lot).
