ESPN has now confirmed it, but that is literally breaking news that had not been reported until now.


Well, if we want to be technical, yellowhammer confirmed it. People just didn’t believe it. ESPN didn’t post anything more valid than what yellowhammer did, people just trust their unnamed source more because they know the espn name.

All of the links in this thread until ESPN’s latest story - including the ones you posted, had been referencing a single source from the obscure Yellow Hammer News.


I literally linked ESPN moments after Finebaum announced they’d confirmed it. So I’m not sure what point you think you’re making.

Yellow Hammer reported it. Not a single other news source was able to confirm that report until the last hour.

That until ESPN confirmed the story at 6:12 pm ET, every story linked here on pages 1-16 - including the ones posted like your New York Post story, used a single source for their article, and that source was Yellow Hammer News.

You’ve slowed a bit in your old age.

It’s kinda sad a pathetic you think this is some sort of gotcha. It makes you look petty and small, plus desperate to not have to address the actual issue, namely that two weeks after the SEC was forced to issue an apology to Auburn for the horrible officiating in one game, another SEC crew called an Auburn game so badly it resulted in the entire crew basically losing their job.

Why hasn't the SEC released a statement?

It’s not a gotcha, dipshit. If Auburn Eagle was reporting that officials from a Bama game had been suspended, would you want to see additional sources?

The literal only source for this info until an hour ago was a Yellowhammer News article written by a dude who graduated from Bama 3 years ago.

You posted a wHaT AbOuT tHe NeW YoRk PoSt link to a story where the only source they cited was also Yellowhammer News.

This isn’t real difficult.

This is a good read, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen such tears 2 weeks later.

I was just thinking of that. Why was Ken suspended and not the entire crew along with the replay officials?

No, dude. Just trying to help you understand why people were asking for other sources, and why responding with the same source that had already been provided didn’t answer their questions.

Hope this helps (it won’t).

They deserved to be suspended for screwing UGA out of a fumble return TD. They gave them the ball on their own 2 yard line. Made them drive 70 yards just to kick a FG. They should adjust the final score to UGA 24 Auburn 10.

It’s still the same source. They are using it as an echo chamber. And are you acting like ESPN has any integrity in their reporting

quote:

And all of them are saying "as reported by yellowhammer". No other sources have confirmed it independently.

That's cool. You just keep on believing this story is actually real since it soothes your butthurt from the loss

Why has no other news source also reported it?

And you were saying?
