What is Auburn (aka Alabama Polytechnic Institute) Football?
It is the 1/2 national championship in 113 years of playing football
It is the feeling of anticipation during the walk down Wire Road from your trailer to "The Jungle"
It is having a cute little nickname like "The Jungle" for Jordan-Hare
It is putting up a banner for losing the tie-breaker for the Western Division title
It is throwing a parade for finishing second Again
It is about having a cute slogan like "AttitUde" or "AUdacity" in order to fire up your fans
It is the hope that one day; Auburn will win a national title without sharing it or being on probation.
It is living up to every stereotype about Auburn by letting the players ride on hay bails during that "victory" parade
It is accepting the National Title from the only person who will give it to Auburn, a 16 year old kid with an AOL account
It is Terry Bowden
It is Eric Ramsey
It is and always will be about "Keep it down home, cuz"
It is having a head coach who used to cook catfish for a living
It is Napoleon Syndrome
It is Little Brother Syndrome
It is the Red Headed Step Child Syndrome
It is believing 2 Heisman Trophies = 2 National Championships
It is knowing that only one other school in the NCAA has been put on probation more times
It is using Toilet Paper to celebrate a victory and wondering why the world treats Auburn like No. 2
It is canceling the Florida State game a month before the season
It is the 1/2 national championship in 113 years of playing football
It is calling the 1989 Alabama game "The Mountain Top," instead of using that title for a championship game
It is yelling "Punt Bama, Punt" 30 years after that chant outlived its cleverness
It is having a runningback who couldn't pass a third grade English test
It is constantly correcting people that Auburn is in Alabama, not Georgia
It is drawing national attention as a barn burns down next to the stadium during the LSU game
It is having a bovine research center less than a mile away from the football stadium
It is the plane ride to Louisville
It is having the same amount of SEC championships as Georgia Tech, who left the SEC 40 years ago
It is claiming you have more all-academic athletes than Princeton then being exposed at giving out free grades in Sociology.
It is the probations
It is the trailers
It is the cows.....
It is paying hush money to your ex-coaches.
It is paranoid inferiority complexes.
It is hearing alumni from other SEC schools refer to you as "the rubes."
It is watching Bama blow your team out the day after your quarterback wins the Heisman.
It is winning your only national championship during a probation year.
It is hosing down Georgia students after another loss.
It is holding up four fingers at the end of the 4th quarter because Bama does it.
It is having 5 SEC Championships in 107 years.
It is having more NCAA investigations than National Championships.
It's calling Bama UAT because that is the best they can come up with.
It is buying championship rings for an 4th ranked 11-0 team because you know that this the closest you will probably ever be to a national championship.
It is Auburn Football!!!!!!!!

You not only repeated some things, but you flat-out made many things up. But I guess there's no sense letting the facts get in the way of trying to belittle Auburn... especially since it has been so long since you could use the on-field resulsts to accomplish that goal.

If Tommy Teletubby looses three in a row they will just go behind his back again to find another coach. To scared to fire him face to face.

All Saturday did was make it even harder for the row turd fans to take beating number 6 in a row this November. Can't help but laugh at the obsession but I guess if I had been rejected to the point of having to spend $4 million for a coach, I might be a little obsessed too. Enjoying losses put on AU by other teams is all you bammers have since your club can't do it.

Back in the good ole days when the Bahr could cheat without any worries from the NCAA and all the games were played in B'ham. Times have changed and so has bammer's record in the Iron Bowl.
|
He had the best team a rich alumni could buy back in those days. I wish they could bring him back from the dead just so they could see what kind of teams he would NOW. Actually, I doubt he would even coach in todays world of level playing field for all.

LTL, you have chit in your nest with that statement. I am a GA. fan, and would never downgrade the bear. Yoy don`t deserve to live in the great State of ALABAMA.
|
You only want me out of Alabama. Most folks here want me out of the state, out of the country, off the planet, and most especailly out of cyberspace!!
