Enough, Chopper...

I was trying to say that your post was awesome.

Oh...well, I would have gotten the message had you given me a spectacular hand job.

your posts are few but they count 100 percent. 

adios, amigo.

I'll tell your mom you said hi!

What kind of audience does Chop have. From my perspective, it will be like the sound of a tree falling in the forest with no one around.
Anti-climatic, too. This horse has already been ridden.
"Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play" ?

Jeebus....

First off...  Has there been contact?  Nope.  Do I plan on it?  Nope. 

Why did I post that thread there, and not here?   This thread.  Right here.

The responses and the read on where people stand with Sheridan is much more interesting (or was) to me, than interviewing a guy that would patronize my inexperience and still say the same things anyway.  I understand that.  However, I did take a moment of pause to appreciate the fact I was at least in a position to do so had I wanted to.  There's a lot of people that have worked Sheridan over pretty hard, and to get one on one responses was at least entertaining.

Nobody knows you better than the people here, Chopper.  The people on this board have seen you through a lot of shit and we've all had our differences. But we know you and you know us.  You know we fuck around, but also that we know when to be serious.  Bear that in mind.

I'm bringing this into this public forum in the hopes that you'll see it and step the fuck off. 

This is a terrible idea and can only end badly.  I don't think there will be a single soul on this board who will consider this a good idea in any way, shape or form. 

You should also notice that almost everyone who has commented on your 247 thread is begging you not to do this.  That should TELL you something, Chop. 

There is no good resolution here. 

Nobody cares about Sheridan any more.  His pop went fizzle and everybody has moved on.  Don't dignify him by giving him the opportunity to have another poke at the dead horse.  All that will come of it is flies and maggots. 

You can get pissed if you want, but this "interview" isn't about Auburn.  It's about YOU and your desire to be relevant or whatever it is you're searching for.  There are other ways, Chop.   

Don't do this. 

Walk away.

Looking for an earlier response that warranted this....   Nothing.  Uhhhh.....

[AuburnChopper 3.0]

I've thought about this a little more and the idea of you attempting to interview Sheridan....











































REMAINS THE WORST FUCKING IDEA I'VE EVER HEARD. 

Uhhhh.......

[AuburnChopper 3.0]

While I can only assume that the sound of glorious trumpets in your head is drowning out any possibility of being heard I am -- at the behest of others -- going to try again to make you see just what a horrible idea this is. 

Here's the thing:

What is there to possibly gain from this exercise in futility?

Do you seriously think Danny's going to tell you the name of his so-called Bagman?  Even if he miraculously drops a name on you, Chopper, what will you do with it?  Publish it?  Say Danny told you but you were sworn to secrecy? 

Any answer there makes things worse for everybody. 

What's more likely to happen is that Danny sees an opportunity.  He's already reeled you in with a completely insincere dash of flattery. And now your ego is writing checks you can't cash. 

It could easily go something like this:

He'll talk like you're old pals and when he senses you've  lowered your guard, Danny will ask casually something like "so if you had to guess, who do you think the NCAA told me was the bagman?" 

And then without thinking  you'll toss out six or seven of the names you've read on the whacka-doo message boards as possibilities. 

Well that's a very interesting list.  I will say that the person I have knowledge of lives in the Southeast and has been in at least one bank.  That might help narrow your list down. 

I hear ya.  Can't give out the dealio, but I'm picking up what you're laying down here. 

Your conclusions are as good as mine, but I think you understand why I can't provide you the name, only contextual clues so you can make your own findings.  I've done nothing but tell the truth.  The NCAA knows it.

Yeah, I know.  Just sayin...


Two days later Sheridan tweets:  Representative of Auburn media confirms knowledge of Auburn's pay scheme. 

Four days later Sheridan is on Finebaum:

Interesting conversation with an Auburn media member last week.  In the course of our discussion he was able to identify the person who had previously been identified to me as the person who allegedly provided payments to Cecil Newton.

Finebaum (shrieking):  This confirms that Auburn has known about this all along and has been covering it up for nine months.  If street-level Auburn reporters are aware of who made the payments, don't you believe Jay Jacobs knows?  We know Jay Gouge doesn't, he doesn't know anything.  But Jacobs knew.  Dye knew.  Do you think Bo Jackson knew? 

And then the cycle starts all over again. 

I don't care if you get pissed off or not, Chopper.  This is not about benefiting Auburn or doing anything positive.  This is 100% about inflating your own fucking ego.  Stop it.  Leave this alone.  It has already died a natural death.  Why kick the corpse?

Uhhhhhhhh......

....


Sorry, but you'll have to forgive me finding all of this a little overboard and pretty funny shit. 

I DID ask people for their opinions.  I asked a lot of people.  I got a lot of different responses.  Good ones.  I learn everyday.  It's fun doing what I'm doing.  Getting pissed isn't the result of honest feedback. 

Look, I do the blog and Twitter because I enjoy it.  Just like people come here.

[GH2001]

Do I think its a great idea personally? Probably not.

But do I care if Chop does the interview or not? Is it going to hurt Auburn? Or me? Nope.

And I certainly don't really see much sense in personally insulting the guy if he wants to do it.

Live and let live.

If he did the interview, and things went as you predicted, would that not "thin the herd"? It would. Chop would get eaten alive, according to you. So why worry? It's what you want.

I don't understand why you worried so much about this. And replied to yourself- numerous times.

[Kaos]

 Yours is not to wonder why.

You took a second to applaud the attention you had received?

He stroked his ego - you know you do it too, but you doit all over 's briefs (and the legal docs on his desk too)

In the hinterlands of SW Arkansas. A place named Hope. Ex-presidents and watermelon Capitol of the state. Po- dunk.
