Well, What Does The Wall Street Journal Know Anyways...Pfff...

[GH2001]

I could careless what Bama is doing right now and the contents of this article. We should be better than worrying about their every move. Isn't this what we critique them for so often? We have enough problems on the field to correct of our own. This comes off as looking like "well, if we can't beat them, lets talk about how we think they cheat".  Kind of pathetic really.

I know where you've been!

Yep, stirring the shit pot again.

Why do you hate Duke?

Wasn't suggesting I didn't agree.   Saban is an ass....don't need no damned WSJ bit to tell me that.  Auburn plays a real team Saturday, and we have issues.

This is it.

How Bama handles players as mentioned in the article is just not my concern at the moment. But if folks want to take consolation in this article, have at it. I would rather actually worry myself over our FB team and how the team in the article will butt rape us if we don't get better quickly.

Oh, I know, I'm just messing with GH a little bit.
GH = shit starter. Just ask the idiot bammer at the Clemson game.
Agreed though, we got our own issues to be concerned with and that is keeping Spurrier from raping us. Although, I personally think we will take care of bu'ness.

Only when intoxicated. I am perfectly sober at this moment.

Is this strategy anything like Bryant's strategy of keeping 200 players on scholarship so that no one could sign them as competition?

You have been under the influence of a "bad influence" the last couple of days though.

Not influence.. We just agree on some things.

[JR4AU]

I agree with him more than it appears, actually we agree on more than we disagree on...we both just have a desire to argue a bit.

Well, it DOES matter.  Getting free tickets to games?  Convincing players that can play that they can't and offering "same perks as players" to them?   

How do you know those players could still play?  Did you evaluate their medical charts?  Both stated they were injured but neither said they passed the team physical.  Griffin was quoted as saying he didn't dispute the failed physical.  Chuck admits to having a back problem but wanted to play through it. 

Why does the fact she's a Duke graduate have to do with anything?  Duke?  So Duke is a school out to get Bama now?  What about the other guy that wrote the article?   Did he come from a University that has some sort of problem with Alabama too? 

C'mon, the whole "they graduated from *_____________*, so they must have an issue with Alabama defense is retarded.

You asked why the WSJ published the article.  My answer was, maybe the author had a beef with Saban.  Then we learn the author is a graduate of a school who had their ass handed to them by Alabama a week ago.  Not only did they get their ass handed to them, but Alabama's backup quarterback was throwing for the endzone in the 2 minute drill before halftime, while up by 40. 

I could see where that could piss someone off.  Is it the reason the author wrote the article?  Seems plausible, and you seemed real interested in getting an answer.

The article was written because the issues are not standard, everyday, okay happenings in a football program.  It's shit like this that's going to get the unwanted attention brought to Alabama.

Never mind.  You already knew the answer.  Had you just stated this from the beginning instead of asking "why, why, why", you could have saved me the time of googling the author's name.

Call it reporters doing what reporters do if you want, but reporters doing what reporters do is ultimately what's going to earn Saban and Alabama a kick in the cash and prizes.

When the right person digs in the right spot and finally finds some substantial allegations against Saban or Alabama cheating, that's a very real possibility.  But this ain't the article.

Everyone hands Duke their entire ass in football.  She'd have to write a lot of articles.

Good point, counselor.  Now go fuck yourself.

If I could, I'd never leave the house. But then, all that relationship bullcrap would get in the way.

I love me

No I don't, I'm just saying that

No I'm not, it's true.

Well, I never take me anywhere.  It's always sex, sex, sex.

Yeah but at least you'd still have your balls.

Nope, those are long gone. They're in a mason jar on her desk at work.  She likes to rattle them around and laugh maniacally in front of her freinds.

I hate it when she does that.

[War Eagle!!!]

I could careless what Bama is doing right now....

Couldn't...it's fucking couldn't...

Auburn plays a real team Saturday, and we have issues.

So? What does that have to do with anything? It's not like we are the ones getting shit prepared or have to get ready to play.

I would rather actually worry myself over our FB team and how the team in the article will butt rape us if we don't get better quickly.

Why get "worried" about shit that you have no control over?

Is this strategy anything like Bryant's strategy of keeping 200 players on scholarship so that no one could sign them as competition?

This is how I see it personally.

Not influence.. We just agree on some things.

Been reading Kaos shit?

When the right person digs in the right spot and finally finds some substantial allegations against Saban or Alabama cheating, that's a very real possibility.  But this ain't the article. 

I personally just see this as some more "win at all cost" type shit that I have known about the University of Alabama for all my 33 years on this planet. This is nothing more, nothing less. Is it shady...fuck yes it's shady. But it's within the rules and if it's within the rules...so be it. I think that Alabama will do whatever it takes, to have a winning program and to win national championships. If that means having to fuck 19 to 23 year olds over, so be it.

Kids want to go to a place that wins championships. But there are sacrifices that have to happen to constantly be at the top. If kids want to take that risk...don't complain about shit when stuff like this happens. Until there is a rule against shit like this, fuck it...

I want my kid to play for Blue Mountain State.
