Fanbase seems to be splitting
« on: October 17, 2018, 10:48:01 AM »
The Gus defenders were quiet for a few days, but after the initial sting and embarrassment of getting punked AT HOME by a walking penis named Jeremy Pruitt (who will be fired within three years) they're starting to resurface again.  

The talking points are: 

1) We are five plays from being undefeated
2) We need the consistency of keeping the same coaching staff intact to build the program, can't keep starting over
3) Gus can't make the plays, he didn't throw those interceptions or let those teams score
4) We had a bad year in 2015 and bounced back! 
5) He hasn't forgotten how to coach, sometimes things just don't go the way you want.  If he was a good coach in November last year, he's still a good coach today
6) The kids (I assume the players) don't need us attacking them or their coach, they need to believe in him
7) The media is against us and things aren't nearly as bad as they make them out to be
8) Every team goes through bad spells.  We have to support this team and these coaches! They need us! 
9) If Alabama wasn't cheating to be successful, nobody would be this upset.  We can't base what we do on what they're doing. 
10) We support Auburn!  Anybody who criticizes the coaches or the players needs to read the Creed!!!!1!

I'm going to tell you right now that I hate those fans.  I despise a significant portion of our fanbase because we seem to think that we deserve whatever shit sandwich we're having to eat because of the Creed or something.  

So yeah.  I guess the fanbase is split and always will be.

The talking points are:

1) We are five plays from being undefeated No we weren't
2) We need the consistency of keeping the same coaching staff intact to build the program, can't keep starting over Myth Auburn historically doesn't swap coaches, besides if you don't think someone isn't getting fired this year you are crazy say goodbye to at least Lindsey.
3) Gus can't make the plays, he didn't throw those interceptions or let those teams score He makes zero in game changes.
4) We had a bad year in 2015 and bounced back! If you consider 8-5 a good year, I don't. Yeah we went to the sugar bowl and got our ass handed to us.
5) He hasn't forgotten how to coach, sometimes things just don't go the way you want.  If he was a good coach in November last year, he's still a good coach today No he hasn't forgotten to coach he has yet to prove that he could ever coach to begin with.
6) The kids (I assume the players) don't need us attacking them or their coach, they need to believe in him He is doing an injustice to the good players we have on this team.
7) The media is against us and things aren't nearly as bad as they make them out to be I don't need the media to tell me what I have been seeing for 6 years.
8) Every team goes through bad spells.  We have to support this team and these coaches! They need us! I will always support Auburn but Gus is not Auburn.
9) If Alabama wasn't cheating to be successful, nobody would be this upset.  We can't base what we do on what they're doing. Somewhat true, but I still would not be ok with a guy making close to 7 mill a year to produce 5+ loss seasons.
10) We support Auburn!  Anybody who criticizes the coaches or the players needs to read the Creed!!!!1! Fuck off

I'm going to tell you right now that I hate those fans.  I despise a significant portion of our fanbase because we seem to think that we deserve whatever shit sandwich we're having to eat because of the Creed or something. 

So yeah.  I guess the fanbase is split and always will be.

Oh, I'm with you.  I disagree with every point the defenders make. 

But just like there are people who support Elizabeth Warren, Bernie and that Ocasio Cortez airhead, there are people who swear by this nonsense.  They're passionate about it.  Will become more and more vocal.

The last one. Literal or paraphrased - is what I’ve seen 100 times. More than the other 9 you listed combined. 
I literally saw a lady say the exact same line on a 24/7 post Monday. 

“Y’all can criticize our coach all you want but I’m still gone support em win or lose  and I’m a true auburn fan all the way” 

yeah. You dumb bitch. Because all those things are mutually exclusive. I swear some of our fans are bammers in orange.

Thats because you critically think. The drones who give the 10 lame ass excuses above DO NOT. They are mouth breather creed humpers. Some of the most righteous indignation you’ll see. Fuck. Them.

"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."

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
