When the well runs dry, Auburn provides irrigation

All of us here at 3SiB have been pretty slack in our posting and we want to apologize to all of our readers (Mom). It’s been pretty lean news-wise with just the periodic early commitment for next season’s recruiting class and the half-hearted attempts at mocking. But then Auburn, as always, rides to the rescue.

Today, we were tossing around ideas, and we had a discussion about some comments Tommy Tuberville had regarding this not new teleconferencing thing Saban is credited with not inventing. Namely, that Tuberville thinks it’s a great idea, won’t be doing it. So we got into a debate, me saying that not doing it was irresponsible and short-sighted, others saying Auburn has done fine the past six years and that’s enough proof of things to come. We never agreed (I’m right), but decided to offer it to you. Feel free to weigh in, but first, you have to check this out. I was searching for the quotes from Tuberville for this article, and was directed via al.com to this proud website:

www.bamahaters.com

This site is everything Tide fans love about Auburn. Ugly, obsessive, and contains fewer references to Auburn than it does Bama, including the title. If you don’t feel like counting, just look at the ads.  All for Bama products.

Not all Auburn fans are like this–there’s probably even one who knows something about Auburn–but it’s sites like this that make it easy to stereotype. It also provides me one more point of comfort: Auburn fans are so proud of only alumni supporting their program, looking down upon Alabama for having so many fans that never took a class at the University. Well, when your fans post things like this, distancing yourself from their education is a bit easier when you don’t share it. Don’t make me post a Kenny Irons interview. I’ll do it, I swear.

Ball, Kenny. Ball? Say Ball. Ba-ll.
