They're right, to a degree.

Maybe I'm a hypocrite, but I think there's a difference between presenting photographic evidence (I don't care if it comes from Tammy on Finebaum) and the Auburn stories which were all hearsay based on unnamed "sources".

I like it.  I am no fan of Brooks or any of the rest of them who just throw shit on the wall.

You gotta sift through garbage sometimes to get to the good stuff.   Brooks throws a lot of garbage, but occasionally gets something right. 

Travis, as far as I know, has only thrown garbage. 

His writers are terrible.  David Wasson?  Some hot chick with a degree in journalism (but is a terrible writer) and knows nothing about football at all?

He's got a thing on his site where he's auditioning writers.  Some of you guys should hit that.  You're better than anything he's got there.

It is a lot easier to write about a subject when all you're doing is stating what's in the picture, when you have photographic evidence.  If they're talking about Auburn and Cam with an Auburn guy giving Cam a sack full of cash, then they put up 10-15 different photographs of not only Cam but a handful of other starters...I would assume that the NCAA go ahead and smash our heads in, so that we can start the rebuilding process sooner.  I don't care who fuckin writes it, if they have evidence, it could be done in crayon.

I don't think the piece has as much to do with the validity of either story as it does how we as fans react to them.  You can't be a scum sucking piece of swine shit one week because you wrote something negative about one school and then be everyone's best friend when you hammer a rival.

I still think SbB and Clay Travis are pieces of shit and that all they like to do is create controversy.  Anyone could write about TTown Menswear, just look at the photos and put something down.
