Go check the ATPB thread and then check back in.

Every poster from Tidesports and BOL has come here since Nov.

If y'all don't quit fighting I'm going to make an effort to derail this thread.

I would think Finebaum has a vested interest in Auburn staying competitive.

Saban brought Finebaum national syndication, and I would also think that an impending Auburn demise could drop ratings drastically.

Now, the ratings would go through the roof during the proceedings, but I can't imagine his show would maintain its appeal without the Alabama/Auburn angle.

It really would be detrimental to the SEC as a whole, too.

I think you're right - radio guys have to change their stands to generate attention or keep the audience interested

What he says one way or the other as unsubstantiated opinion should usually just be taken as idle chatter to generate some sort of response

He's been around for a while right? Was he ever ahead of the curve when it came to stuff like the Means case? Or does he pretty much broadcast so many different opinions that he's going to be covered one way or the other?

I definitely think he hears stuff, and he knows what's going on. His track record with NCAA sanctions hasn't been as accurate as it has with coaching changes or those types of rumblings.

I've heard him say things aren't going to be a big deal and they explode, and I've heard him say things are a huge deal and they turn out to be nothing.

As far as all of this mess, I just think it's interesting that what he has said off the record in the past isn't necessarily congruent with what he says on air. Granted, I haven't talked to anyone recently who's eaten lunch with him or whatever to see what he's saying off the record now.

LINK around there.

LSU or AU dominate Bama.

More arkies than Gumps.

It would seem that he would want to keep Auburn fans happiest right now, since they are listening and going to the BCS.

It is recorded, go look it up. Many more new Bamma posters than Aubies. You just notice the Aubies more because you happen to disagree with them and despise their opinions.

as soon as the Means case broke he knew it was true because he knew most of the people involved. However, when the rumblings of the secret witness and Fulmer being involved began to surface he laughed it off. Until he saw the documentation Logan Youngs attorneys had then he started singing a different tune.
