Why is this Brandon Marcello guy, this Arkansas hog, writing about AU and digging for negatives?

I didn't see anything wrong with what he wrote. IMO, it was more about the HORRIBLE officiating that the SEC continues to allow, especially that one ref in particular.

I agreed with Prowler at first...but then I remembered that I've seen this guy take swipes at Auburn before. 

I suspect it's just typical of what happens with al.com.  The boss is a bammer, and this guy enjoys making his boss laugh.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Increase your Sertraline dosage to 200mg per day. Marcello is a good writer and and nice guy (interviewed him several times). It was a small, small crowd and for a reason. This basketball team is maddening to watch and now that football doesn't suck the eggs, most folks don't give the attention.

Headline story isn't about AU getting better, it's about "smallest crowd in history and thug fan gets ejected"

No thanks. Evan Woodbery was a great guy too.

You already know this but: "Auburn Fan Ejected" or the like, gets more clicks (used to be sells more papers) than; "Auburn is Improving"

I do agree that if we did a study, AU stories on al.com would be disproportionately more negative than UA and that it IS because of control/spin.

It happened. He reported on it.

I don't see the big deal. He didn't call him a thug. In fact, if you read the article, it very clearly sides with the fan and calls out the ref.

Marcello is definitely one of the good ones. Pick your battles, man.

All of the above is logic which is clearly being ignored by the OP in the name of hate for hate sake.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

And Imma keep a bottle of that funk
