Sorry.

I enjoy getting all mad sometimes. Gotta go, but it would be nice if some other fans would walk in the shoes of AU fans and realize what we have to put up with over here. Out...

Likewise when someone proves our boys were paid for these autographs and didn't pay for the suits I will accept it. I like how you say if they investigated something would have been uncovered. How do you know? And what cars? Hope your not referring to Dre's car.

Occasionally it happens. Although, it happens more to players walking around with their hand out. However it is not as blatant and widespread as many on here think. All you guys saying you see the $$$$handshakes are full of crap. I know from experience.

So when the NCAA is sent numerous pictures that show a booster giving bammer players extra benefits, that's just swept under the rug.


You have got to be a ntyf noob and an itat tool...
How do you know it was ignored skooter? How do you know it wasn't looked into and nothing was found just like the so called cam investigation?
No football player can bring a vehicle onto UA campus unless he provides the paperwork on how the car was purchased. How about dre's car??? I have a son finishing up at UA and believe me if he had a full ride scholarship I would have come out cheaper buying him a new car than what I am paying now. Julio and Marks fishing trip? Ask the "third" Alabama player that was on the trip and that will answer why there was nothing to it.

You should start a thread on your theories as to why. As well as all your other auburn obsessions. Maybe that way you wouldn't post elsewhere. Well besides tide fans and the other bama shite sites.

There are very few things they want they don't get. Colt McCoy's wife, if the burnt orange media didn't destroy it, called in to Cowherd, and basically listed all the benefits players got.

The cam investigation was NIXED? What? I thought it went on for more than a year. That's not nixed.

How hypocritical to throw out an innuendo that AU did something wrong regarding Bond. Maybe Bond realized his school would get in trouble if he talked. Who knows? But what you said was a rumor meant to stir up suspicion.

But somehow the pictures of the CURRENT bammer players sitting in front of a store window with their jerseys displayed is just brushed off as nothing. Pictures, now, not innuendo. Pictures of Julio in 18 complete outfits, a different one for every game, suit, tie, shirt, shoes, the works - 18 different ones now. A college boy is going to buy himself 18 different outfits only to wear one time?

Hypocritical.

Seeing as how pictures are all the proof we need...



Or is there a logical explanation as to why an UNDERAGE RECRUIT is at a PARTY with AU HOSTESSES? Just saying since you're acting like Auburn of all schools doesn't have to use shady tactics to lure players there...

Not to mention, if you use the same "poor black people can't afford suits" logic, there is no way girls like that would be hanging on a guy that looks like that unless there is something shady going on...

He is disgusting.

Except one of them was his cousin, which I believe the face book comments either show here and were cutoff or taken before it was stated by dismukes.

Well, I think the poor people don't buy suits logic is racist bullshite anyway. We've all seen people in college who spend all of their money on stupid shite that they can't afford, and that they had no business buying.

And I don't think anyone who's been to a college town for any length of time was particularly interested in the NCAA creating a precedent of investigating local store owners and the benefits they may give athletes. I would assume Toomer's has given away a shite ton of free lemonade over the years.
