I had a co-worker...here in Texas mind you...that was trying to fuck with me and said something about the championship being taken away. My response, "I don't care." And I just looked at him. He looked at me. I looked back at him. He laughed, said, "Good point.", and walked away.
Honestly, who cares? Fuck them. We won that shit on the field. We won it when everyone hated us. I don't care of they hate us. Fuck them. I want them to hate us. I want everyone in the nation to be so god damn jealous of our program it hurts. I don't want to be the loveable losers anymore. Fuck it.
Unless anything else comes out, they can say what ever it is they want to say. I don't care.
I'm with you.
The frustrating thing is, I don't think I'm just looking at this through orange and blue glasses when I say this, but Auburn fans really are one of the classiest fanbases in the country. Certainly for a team that actually wins anything. I've never seen an Auburn fan be anything more than hospitable to a visiting team. Offering their beer and food to their opponents, and wishing them a good game. I have never seen such venomous hatred as I have this year at games. Pretty much the entire second half of the season, I've had some asshole in his $cam Newton t-shirts (that every fanbase prints up as if they are original) literally scream in my face about we're a bunch of cheaters. Saw two assholes at the Oregon game wave money in Cam's face when he came up by them on the sideline. When some dickface yells that kind of shit at you, it sucks cause you don't have a good one line defense. Give me five minutes to tell you why you're a dumbass, compare the situation to the Albert Means case, point out that
everything that is being alleged happened at Mississippi State, and that even with all of that said, all that actually happened was a MSU booster and Cecil
discussing the possibility of payment. Doesn't work well in a short angry retort to the asshole yelling "Scam Newton, baby! Bunch a cheaters!"
So with all of that said, I think it's about time to embrace it. It wouldn't piss me off as much to be as hated as we were if we actually were as classless as we're purported to be. I say we change our logo to an orange and blue Jolly Roger, walk up to people's tailgates and take a dump on their grill. I say we all take on the Prowler mentality. If we're gonna be universally hated anyway, might as well enjoy it, and earn it.
