He makes some great points, especially at the end about the players needing us as fans even more than ever. Hopefully we as fans can hold up that end of the bargain, and keep showing up in full force.

Best piece I've read on Auburn since the beginning of the year. Cheers to you Rob Pate.

. As Coach Chizik said after Arkansas, the fans didn't deserve what we got. I hope the players can never say the same about the level of support they receieve. These kids deserve our best, and during times like these is when they need it most.
I'd encourage everyone to give his closing words some thought as well.

And Jay Jacobs has been put in quite a bind by Coach Pat Dye's "he can lose them all" comment. He sticks with Gene...it looks like Pat Dye runs the program. He fires Gene...he makes his former coach look incompetent, out of touch. We seem to have the problem Alabama football had within their athletic department for 25 years post Bear Bryant. No single, solitary voice. Too many hands in the cookie jar. I don't know that too be the case...it's just my perception. But again, perception is reality.




shite just got real.......

Meh. I will be at every game because I am student and no matter how much we suck I still wake up Saturday morning excited to watch my Tigers play. But when a team is this big of a train wreck, I don't have a problem with fans that save the money and watch it from home, especially if from out of town.
