re: WR Derrick Griffi visiting.

We aren't but as I said your POV is overly judgmental and to be blunt, it's snobbish. I can understand picking on players for how they perform on the field but to call anyone flat out stupid for not applying himself is tactless and not upholding the character of what it means to be an Auburn man. Many, many teenagers don't apply themselves to the fullest. It's apart of growing up for many of them. IMO calling Derrick stupid is much worse than calling a Bama fan a Bammer and a UGA fan a leghumper which I found out real fast was a NO NO on this board. I am a very smart person book wise but only had a 1.8 GPA through my junior year because I was lazy, did not care, and did not see the point of doing the work then. It was definitely a mistake but I am far from stupid. As for Derrick, he has changed who his friends are and started applying himself. Most men who hang out with rough crowds do not make that kind of positive change while they are in high school. The young man should be commended for making those changes and applying himself instead of having his past focused on to where he is labeled stupid...Rant Over.

You missed the point. My whole point was you used the word stupid which is much more severe than using dumb (as you did in your last post to soften your stance). I can live with dumb. But stupid is akin to calling someone a tard or retard. That is one of my biggest pet peeves because of being around and helping challenged kids most of my life. As for the skeptical part, you have every right to feel that way but as I said that was never the issue...moving on now.

You two are getting more butthurt than a blackout saturday with Elton John.

Move it to its own thread. This isnt the E and piggy thread

Also dont trash talk recruits unless committed to Bama or have AU tattoos and not coming here. Act like you have something more meaningful in your life
