I think it is a noble gesture from the Tide fans.

There are a lot of your fellow fans that do not agree with you. I suggested having donations at our A game for them, funds that would be sent from the fans(before I knew of Tide for Toomers)and not the university. I was insulted by them saying they don't want a damn thing from us and that we would only do it for PR reasons. Why is that true? The University and the rest of us fans had no control over this guy so really there is no reason for us to have bad PR.
I was really feeling bad and wanted to mend fences, but they just want to feel sorry for themselves and play the victim. Do you have any idea how long they will whine about this? Also they want to take all news away from any investigation right now.
Bo Jackson on Jox this morning compared this as if something had happened at Mount Rushmore. I'm sorry but Toomers is a momument in Auburn, but not to the entire nation.
I hate what happened, I truly do, but they don't want our sympathy or money, and we can't undo this. I wanted to do something to help, but to have sincere motives thrown back in your face was enough for me. One of their fans(or person that says he's an Auburn fan) will do something one day that they are not exactly proud of, and we'll see how they feel.
