Title: Hmmm, this is interesting....footage of ref changing the spot of the ball
Post by: The Prowler on November 28, 2010, 12:29:33 AM
in the Iron Bowl.  So not only did Auburn have to overcome a 24 point deficeit (sp?), in a 101,000 packed stadium, hated rivalry game, against a team full of 5 Star talent, and against the refs (and the replay booth officials).

A couple of things here...

1.  Compare the two teams' penalties and penalty yards.

2.  There's two guys spotting the ball every play.  How do we know that guy wasn't just adjusting his foot to match the other ref and/or splitting the difference between the two?

Conspiracy? I think not. But the PI on Washington was pure bullshit.

That and the unsportsmanlike penalty on Fairley, followed by a no call on Marcel Dareus doing nearly the same "Show Boating"....and McElroy clapping towards the Auburn players, this was before he got Piledrived.

Not only are you a shitty loser, you're a shitty winner. Congrats.

Oh no. It's quite obvious by a few extremely zoomed in frames, that there is a conspiracy. Alabama is so fucking scared of AU, we had to buy these refs off. We're terrified. We actually thought about not even fielding a team this season we were so terrified. Prowler is going back through the game frame by fream, as we speak, to show us every little nit picky bullshit conspiracy theory he can conjure up. He's totally busted us. We're so fucked now.

Shit, I saw AU hold Courtney Upshaw a few times and not get called on it. I mean, AU's OL #66 was on the ground with his arms wrapped around Upshaw's right leg a few times, and no call. I guess Prowler missed those few times, otherwise he would be outraged.

You guys won. Jesus.

YOU DAMN RIGHT WE WON!!! And....we did it with a fuckload of shit stacked against us.  So, suck on that, rws.  Be a gracious LOSER all you want.  You're still a loser, Auburn owns the State, and your team ain't shit....and that was with a 24 point spot.  Have fun in the Chik-fil-a bowl or whatever bowl that no one cares about.  Better hope y'all don't face a Boise State team.  Because that shit would be just too fuckin' funny.

Rws, it was a very good game and we were lucky to win, I know I give you a ton of shit for not attending games and I was fortunate to attend my 8th straight iron bowl. For a good while during the first half I asked myself why I spent so much money on a ticket to watch my team play like crap, I'm happy they found a way to turn it around and win it in the second half  We will see you next year in auburn.... Unless we won't.

And this is why I am not disagreeing with you. Prowler is still amped up and getting out a lot of aggression from 2008. Just let him be. I personally dont think there is much to that video.

I don't see much to that video either, but I was pulling a Ricky's rant over that worst officiating crew in history, give its worst performance to date.

And piss poor spots were a major part of that. The clip in this video, McElroy needed to clear the pile by a yard. He got stuffed backwards. They call it a first down. That happened no less than twice for bama. Meanwhile when Auburn was 3rd or 4th & inches and clearly lept a solid yard + forward, the first down was not given. It had me screaming "Whore Shit!!!"

If I had just slightly less of a life, I would compile a video that shows this much more clearly than that gif, but alas, I got shit to do...

The really egregious part of that scenario was the lack of a measurement.

Damn we get Prowler fitted for a straight jacket while you apologize. This is golden!

Prowler is actually acting very bammer-esque.  Kind of embarassing. 

Winning is enough for me.  Winning where we did, in the manner that we did it - snatching victory from the jaws of defeat - is just icing on the cake.  That memory will NEVER go away... not from any fan of either school.  And THAT what makes me smile.

Aiight...I got it all out of my system.  It's just something that's been boiling in me for a couple years.  I'll finish off this, Suck My Cock and Eat A Steaming Pile of Shit, bammers.  Who's irrelevant now, bitches?!?!

Prowler,

Until we win the SEC, and that's not a given...well if we don't it's "just another season"...very good, very entertaining, but nothing more without a ring and a trophy of some kind, and I don't mean just a BCS bowl.  Stop with the "relevant" talk.  This Auburn team has another pressure packed game to play vs a good team, and a very good coach who will pull out all the stops.  If it ends Saturday with a loss, it's a season only notable for it's entertainment value, a few broken records, and turmoil.

That's bammer talk right there..."if we don't the SEC or MNC it ain't a good season".  If Auburn doesn't win the SEC, I'm still going to be a very, VERY happy Auburn fan.  Yeah, it'll suck to not win it all, but it will DEFINITELY NOT take away from what this team has done in two years removed from the Coach Franklin/Coach Tuberville circus.

I am "ALL IN" win or lose.

I want Prowler to stop chunking turds at the Bamers and return to his usual gregarious self.
I asked you nicely Prowler.

Oh he'll, let him keep chunking. He's only returning what is rightfully theirs.
