Apples and oranges Kaos...and you know this shit.
There are segments of academia who can't stand "the brutal game of football with players acting like a bunch of savages..."
Don't even compare the two...
GOD FUCKING BLESS, has everybody around this place gone fucking psycho? What the fuck are you even talking about? I can't make shit for sense out of either of your replies. It's like they jumped in from some other thread or something.
I thought it was interesting that Sensible/Cynical's comment could be cross referenced with the attitude some portions of academia has with sports in general.
I didn't say one fucking motherfucking sonofabitching thing about whether recruiting was positive or negative, Prowler. Christ almighty.
I said I personally didn't care if the kid called it Hung Jao Din as long as he wanted to be a part of what we have at Auburn. I noted that many people who should know better at ESPN still do it.
Ya'll are fucking NUTS. So quick to pull the trigger and make the assumption that I was bashing on Prowler or what the fuck ever that you're not even paying attention.
I took this sentence:
yes, it does mean something to a lot of people who don't give a damn about football.
I considered the stuff that sociology doofus tried to dig up. I considered the interactions I've had with college administrators and other officials -- people who DON'T give a damn about sports. I thought about the academics vs. athletics debates I've seen around in various media. And I could see where there would be a segment of the population for which this kind of thing would be a big deal. I think that's already been proven at Auburn.
That's not badgering Prowler. It's not taking anybody's fucking side. It's not apples, oranges, plums or persimmons.
It's making a fucking observation.
